The Ducati Sport and Super Sport are the most-prized collector motorcycles in the world. For good reason too. Built for racing performance, the cycles are relatively rare, always attract attention and command top prices. This Original-series book focuses on all the bevel-drive sport models from 1972 to 1986, including the 750 Sport, 750SS, 900SS, 900 Darmah SS, Mike Hailwood Replica and the 1000 S2. A short chapter covers the daddy to all these Ducatis, the 750 GT, a highly collectible bike.

By Mazza (NSW, Australia) - See all my reviews

You might just be a Ducati freak if...,
By Motor_Memories (Michigan) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Original Ducati Sport and Super Sport, 1972-1986 (Original Series) (Hardcover)
If you own a Ducati or plan to buy one, this book is indispensible and will more than pay for itself.
If you're a current Ducati owner, use this book to properly restore your bike and then to verify it's originality to the buyer to get top dollar. If looking for one to buy, you'll need this book to verify originality and avoid getting 'taken' on a poorly restored bike. If you buy this book without owning a Ducati or planning to buy one, you'll still love the 128 pages of incredible color images and close-ups of the engineering that went into these world-class bikes.

In Depth Study of the Cafe Racer,
This review is from: Original Ducati Sport and Super Sport, 1972-1986 (Original Series) (Hardcover)
I did not expect so much information. I just wanted the book because I've lusted for this motorcycle in my early adulthood. The bike really 'turned my key' and reading the book educated me on what went into the making of this bike. Motorcycle engineers are now very much admired by me.
