Who am I?

My name is Hans de Ree (1973), I live in the beautiful small European country the Netherlands and I love everything Italian, especially V-twins from Borgo Panigale and Mandello del Lario. Alfa Romeos are cool too (I think).

What do I do?

Since a few years I am refurbishing Ducati parts beside my dayjob. I only source rare, quirky or unique Ducati parts.

Am I a biker?

Sure am. Well before I had my driver's license, I had a 1980 Yamaha RD350LC (4LO) in my garage. But after seeing and hearing the likes of Raymond Roche and Doug Polen on their Ducatis, V-twins really grabbed me. One day I must have a Ducati. I currently own an apple green "Verde Legnano" Moto Guzzi V11 Sport with open Mistral cans linked to a Stucchi "free flow" crossover. This combo sounds like Pavarotti in a bad mood and the Power Commander III makes her run sweet. Brilliant.

Arrivederci!
Hans de Ree
