The Ducati GT1000

***

The Ducati GT1000 is designed with comfort in mind. Conventionaly mounted handlebars and footrest locations give an upright riding position. The seat is roomy with excellent padding.

Propelled by the air cooled L-twin 992cc Desmo engine, both power and torque are in plentiful supply. The chassis as with the other sport classic models is designed and built using modern day geometrics and materials. The end result is a package that offers sports bike handling and performance whilst truly retaining classic retro looks. The 120/180 tyre combination ensures that this bike has a footprint worthy of the large 320mm twin front disc and twin piston brembo brakes.

The Ducati GT1000 is built for everyday use with the balance of 2 up comfort as a priority, with the passenger footrests also placed for all day comfort.

As with all 2007 Ducati Motorcycles, maintenance schedules have pretty much been halved.
