Description
Bella is a motorcycle design and rebuild project inspired by a late 1970's zeitgeist.
The remains of a 1979 Ducati GTS 900 provided the base material for this project. A long list of modifications, hand machined pieces, MotoGP components, and parts from other motorcycles support a classic Ducati bevel drive L twin engine, which has been increased to 1000cc.
Attention to detail in materials, finishes, and performance has resulted in an artistic interpretation of Ducati heritage. -

One of a kind, lost-wax cast bronze Ducati tank badges with high surface polish and matt black patina treatment are a collaboration between Colin Stinson and Italian foundry master Piero Mussi, owner of the renowned Artworks Foundry.
The original gas tank has been cut, re-welded, hammered out, sealed, and re-tapped. Smoked chrome flake paint sealed under multiple clear-coat layers is the expert work of Mick Jenkins and friends at Mick's Paint and SO-CAL Speed Shop in Los Angeles. -
