A genuine grade-A classic. A design masterpiece that is the crowning glory that launched the design career of Massimo Tamburini – it will go down in history of winning more WSB titles than any other bike.

That moment when you tuck in and open the butterflies on a fuel-injection system that was light years ahead of the Japanese. And when you park up, take a few steps forward and look at it, you still get ‘that feeling’. The lines are perfect, the detailing is exquisite, the minimalistic approach to building a motorcycle is a lesson to every other bike built after it. Even to this day, many call the Ducati 916 the most beautiful motorcycle in the world. It was even featured in the Guggenheim. San Francisco’s Museum of Modern Art still has one in its collection.

For collectors of modern classic sportsbikes, this machine is well worth a look as the value continues to increase. Ducati 916s used to have a terrible reputation for reliability, but plenty of specialists have worked out how to fix the problems. Spares are still relatively easy to come by and used parts are plentiful.
