The Ducati 916 is widely recognised as one of the most important motorcycles of the last century. Designed by Massimo Tamburini, it was first shown at the 1993 Milan Motor Show and immediately gained attention for its innovative design and performance.
While it used an engine similar to the earlier 851/888 models, the 916 marked a major step forward. It featured a redesigned frame, compact bodywork, a distinctive split headlight, high-mounted exhausts under the seat, and a single-sided swingarm - elements that set new standards in motorcycle design.
The 916 was not only admired for its appearance; it also achieved great success on the racetrack, winning multiple titles in the Superbike World Championship. This illustrated book presents the full history of the Ducati 916, from its development to its racing achievements, and is an essential reference for motorcycle enthusiasts.
