Ducati is the motorcycle equivalent of an Italian opera: dramatic, passionate, occasionally temperamental and impossible to ignore. Founded in Bologna in 1926 by the Ducati brothers as a maker of radio components, it turned to motorcycles after the Second World War. Engineer Fabio Taglioni gave it the desmodromic valve system, which closes valves mechanically instead of with springs, and the L-twin engines that became its signature. The result is a sound and feel that owners can recognize from a block away.
The milestones are the stuff of posters on bedroom walls. The 916 of 1994, designed by Massimo Tamburini, is often called one of the most beautiful motorcycles ever made, and its descendants won a string of World Superbike championships. The Monster created a new class of naked bikes, the Multistrada redefined the adventure-sport segment and the Panigale V4 brought MotoGP-derived technology to the street. Owners once joked about expensive maintenance; modern Ducatis have largely silenced the jokes.
Owned by Audi, and therefore Volkswagen, since 2012, Ducati is now a dominant force in MotoGP, where its bikes have won multiple riders' championships in recent seasons and often fill much of the grid. The road lineup includes the Panigale, Streetfighter, Monster, Multistrada, Diavel, Hypermotard, DesertX and the Scrambler sub-brand, along with its first motocross bikes. This page tracks Ducati launches, special editions, India and global market news, racing results, recalls and business news from Borgo Panigale.
Bologna's red racing obsession, from the 916 and Panigale to the Monster and Multistrada, a MotoGP powerhouse now owned by Audi and Volkswagen.
