I for sure enjoy any classic rebuild on here Ducati or not. Having 2 500 singles and a 400 too of Japanese variety I love the riding of them. On the 500 they have a decompressor and the 400 technically it does too but is controlled by a cable on the kickstart which lift the valve at the correct time. I do remember my brother fitted some kind of sparkplug fitting decompressor on his 1974 Suzuki TS250M scrambler back in the day. Not sure it needed it really but guess it may have decent compression.
