In the 60s, American importer Joe Berliner was bringing in so many Ducatis that he had the ear of the corporate office. So when he started asking for a do-it-all bike aimed towards younger riders, the Italian firm obliged him with the Ducati Scrambler 250, a dual-sport based off the road-based Diana which Berliner had converted for dirt track competitions in the US.
A few years later, that had evolved into the Ducati Scrambler 350 you see before you.
This example (VIN: DM350S350470, Engine #: DM350 09609) is one of over thirty motorcycles that we are auctioning off from the Alan Wilzig collection over the next couple of weeks.
The odometer shows 8,758 kilometers (5,441 miles).
In preparation for the listing, we had Daniel verify that the bike can run – he cleaned the carb, cleaned the points, cleaned the spark plug, topped off the oil, and got the motor unstuck. Please see the video up top.
Daniel notes that the lights do not work, the horn works intermittently, the motor has low compression, the carb leaks, the petcock is stuck, there is no key, the cables are sticky, the compression release is loose, there is no battery, and the oil should be changed.
