The Ducati Sport 1000 Biposto and Monoposto

***
Monoposto
Biposto


One model - Two versions.
The key difference between the versions is that the Ducati Sport 1000 Biposto is a two seater machine, whilst the Monoposto is a single seater.

There are however a handful of other variations, The Ducati Sport 1000 Monoposto sports a single mono shock on the LHS of the mostrous 60mm swingarm and twin exhaust cans on the RHS, as opposed to twin adjustable shocks and an exhaust can on each side of the Biposto version. The handlebar position is lower on the single seater version.

The Ducati Sport 1000 is truly styled around the cafe racer design with a layed forward riding position (less so on the Biposto) thanks to the low clip-ons and rear set footrests.
The rider is faced with a most retro styled white faced dash that supplies all the information a rider could want including the time of day.
The forward swept chrome handlebar end mounted mirrors (that give an excellent view of the road behind) just finish off the Sport 1000's "I mean business" look.

As far as engine and running gear is concerned , the Ducati Sport 1000 is a bike that has been designed and built using the lastest technology, geometry and materials.

The rigid trellis frame that cunningly uses the engine as a stressed member married with the adjustable 43mm upside down Marzochi forks, adjustable sachs rear shock/s and huge swingarm produces a chassis that will amaze in the first few miles of riding. The Retro looks are so convincing that it is hard for the mind to concieve that this bike really does handle like a supersports bike.
Its confidence inspiring feedback will soon have you putting the L-Twin 992cc air cooled engine through its paces. The sound of this machine is infectious....

Coming to a halt is no problem. Twin 320mm discs with 2 piston brembos ensure that this wolf in sheeps clothing stops on a sixpence.
