The Ducati 916 needs no introduction, but I’ve always considered it to be a bit of a revelation.

Ducati 916 - Cockpit

Designed by Massimo Tamburini, the 916 has become an icon in the sportbike world, in no small part thanks to the dual projector headlights, the SSSA, and the underseat exhausts. I’ll leave it to Visor Down to summarize how amazing this bike was:

EVERY once in a while a true classic comes along: James Joyce’s Ulysses, The Beatles’ Revolver, Tarantino’s Reservoir Dogs. Greats one-and-all, to be seen, owned or understood by the discerning and devoted. To the list of timeless classics, we can add Massimo Tamburini’s Ducati 916.

This specific Ducati 916 stands out to me because it’s had $15,000 invested to bring it ‘back to new’, though it currently has 30,000 miles. It’s been repainted and comes with Ohlins forks, shock, and steering damper, a new clutch, custom seat, Termi exhaust, inverted shifting, and a custom lower fairing.
