Motorcycle Repair: Old Ducati, ducati 500, bouroughs

Question
I'm looking at a 1977 Ducati 500 sprinter. How hard is it to find
a mechanic to work on a Ducati and how hard would it be to find
parts for a bike like this?

btw, I live in NYC

Thanks,
Paul

Answer
Hi Paul,

Should be a Duc tech in your area (maybe just outside of the bouroughs) to perform work. Parts for a '77 may be harder to find than a tech.
