The Sport Classic family, which has met with
great success since its appearance in 2003, replicates the styling of the
motorcycles built in Ducati's workshops in the 1970s, characterised by a
minimalist, sporting look, with an exposed frame and bodyparts in soft,
rounded shapes. To emphasis the unique style of these bikes, Ducati has used
top-level original components and finishes, featuring chrome and brightwork
that provide the final touch, personalise the range and EVOke the lines of the
bikes from which they're inspired.
The whole SportClassic family mates retro style
with modern technology and mounts the brilliant Desmo 1000 DS engine:
delivering impressive torque, this air-cooled 90° "L" twin-cylinder is the
ideal engine for these new sports models. The cylinders, with their
traditional cooling fins and classic L-configuration, harken to the original
design by Taglioni. The 1000 DS engine is equipped with the Desmo twin-valve
system, fuel injection and an electronic engine control to guarantee power,
reliability, thrilling performance and ease of use.
As of 2007, the Sport 1000 will be available in
two new versions: as well as the traditional single-seater, the Sport 1000
will be produced in an updated two-seater version for the new season, with a
comfortable seat for both rider and pillion, complete with removable
seat-cover so as to leave that perfect Café Racer style undiminished.
Another two-seater version is the new Sport
1000 S, with a seductive new colour scheme of red frame and swingarm with
black wheel rims and engine covers, and featuring a classic upper fairing with
a round central headlamp, to give it a more aggressive look in keeping with
1970's tradition.
As well as its two traditional colours red and
grey, the GT 1000 will be presented in an original new two-tone livery of
metallic black and cream, which recalls the original designs of this Ducati
grand tourer.

SPORT 1000 biposto
In the 1970s, the most sports-oriented
motorcyclists used to modify their road bikes according to what they saw on
the track, including clip-ons handlebars, rear set footrests and aggressive
colours. The aim was not just to make your bike look better but to enhance its
performance too. And that's how the Café Racer style came into being. The
Ducati Sport 1000 elegantly captures the audacious look of the motorcycles of
that era.
This year, as well as the single-seat version,
the SportClassic stable includes the new Sport 1000 biposto, a two-seater
which features a comfortable double seat, raised clip-ons to make the riding
position even more comfortable and retro style twin rear shocks.
The removable passenger seat-cover, colour-matched with the bike, keeps the
Sport 1000 biposto true Café Racer looks intact, but take it off and you'll
find a comfortable pillion seat underneath.
The two-seater version of the Sport 1000
embodies the same high quality and advanced technology as its single-seat
counterpart. Mounting high-performance Marzocchi 43 mm upside down forks up
front, twin Sachs shock rear suspension which are fully adjustable for spring
pre-load, and compression and rebound damping. The two rear shocks are fixed
at the bottom to an oversize 60 mm diameter tubular steel swingarm, which
features a simple, rational system (reminiscent of the one used on the 1970s
bikes) for adjusting chain tension.
Lastly, there's a new exhaust system (Euro 3) culminating in two symmetrical
silencers on the right and left of the bike.
The special colour combinations put the
distinctive finishing touches to this bike. The Sport 1000 two-seater is
available in three different colours, featuring the characteristic
longitudinal stripe down the middle of the fuel tank and tail section. The
colours available for this model are: Burnt yellow with black stripe, Gloss
black with white stripe and Ducati Red with white stripe, all three with a
black frame.
