If there's a middle ground between the reliability of a modern bike and the charisma of a classic motorcycle, it's occupied by guys like Walt Siegl. Walt is a master craftsman who gives vintage machinery a new lease of life, and if something isn't quite the way he wants it, he's got the skills to make it himself in his New Hampshire workshop. According to Walt, “The owner of this bike already has a couple of late model Ducatis, and wanted another princess from Italy—but with classic curves and low maintenance.” Although this bike looks like a resto-mod to the
Anthony Warnock is an ex-WSBK/MotoGP mechanic and now runs Corse Motorcycles in Perth, Australia. His specialty is late model Ducatis, having worked in Europe on the racing scene for 12 years, and for the factory itself in 2003. When he returned back to his home town, he was given the opportunity to set up his own shop—something he’d always dreamed of. Anthony met Nat Graham-Helwig, the owner of this Ducati custom, through a mutual friend. Having worked on some of Nat’s bikes in the past (including a 1198S Corse) they became good friends. One day, the two got talking about
The Scrambler Ducati is one of the best-looking factory bikes around—which makes it tricky to modify. But Athens-based Jigsaw have done a sterling job.
Custom Ducati Scrambler
How do you improve on perfection? Most custom motorcycles address the shortcomings of a stock bike—be they aesthetic, propulsive or dynamic. But the Ducati 1098 scores pretty highly in all those departments. This custom ‘café fighter’ is owned by Alonzo Bodden, who used the original bike as a trackday machine until a highside accident severely damaged it. Most 1098 owners would have had their bike repaired back to standard spec, but Bodden decided to give his to Nick Anglada of Florida-based Anglada Originals. This is the result: a powerful, heavily upgraded custom Ducati packed with ultra high performance components and

The fact that factory Ducati Monster look pretty good for a mass production motorcycle doesn’t stop the owners to sometimes go crazy with customizations. We particularly love this one as it’s very subtle with an amazing attention to details. | Good Things From Italy - Le Cose Buone d'Italia

Joe Ramos made a great start of this mild custom build by swapping a front end from a Ducati Sport Classic to garner a set of spoked wheels and a nice suspension and brake upgrade for this daily commuter along with an Ohlins shock and a set of CNC machined rearsets.
Ducati Monster 821 Customized by Khangnht98 [ IG & FB | Khangnht98 ]
The 860 series is one of the most maligned of all Ducatis. Styled by auto designer Giorgetto Giugiaro, it was ahead of its time and sales were poor. But it’s also one of those bikes that has aged gracefully, and 35 years later, this lightly tweaked custom is an absolute traffic-stopper. ‘Paola’ is owned by Munich-based photographer Hermann Köpf, and she's a hard-working bike, taking her owner on regular travels around Europe. And despite appearances, this Ducati has only been slightly modified. The bars have been raised, and fitted with vintage-style grips and discreet blinkers on the ends. The taillight
