I saw my first Duc 750GT at a MG New Mexico rally way back in '99. The guy showed up on it because it was Italian, but his real motive was to steal the limelight at the bike show. It worked. At the time I was on my recently-on-the-road Police Eldo, and I would've traded him straight-up, plus cash, for that Duc. What's worse, he claimed he got it for like $1,000 from a buddy who never got it running. I still tell people about what a beautiful bike it was.
