I'm back. The Ducati will be entertaining, if it's in good health, it will top 30mph, and there are tales of 40+.

Hey Lud, You finally came up for air!I'm back. The Ducati will be entertaining, if it's in good health, it will top 30mph, and there are tales of 40+.
Yep....that's the one. Same colour as the one I'm on the trail of too.Nope, it's this one.
In a word, yes Lud. Plan is to basically use the Solo as found for what's left of the riding season, then carry out some mods over winter - which will probably include up-sizing the motor. While there are an abundance of different capacity Honda C-type clone motors on eBay from makers like Lifan, I'm thinking maybe a 110cc semi-auto pit bike engine/carb will suit me fine. To get the ball rolling for the time being, my plans definitely include up-sizing the tyres to give the bike a chunkier (and probably fenderless) vibe and fitting an aftermarket exhaust so the motor sounds more like a motorcycle and less like a sewing machine. No offence Honda.Just out of curiosity, you haven't considered a pit bike engine have you?
