Imola in 1972: without that single race, the Ducati of today would wear a different face. The one-two of Smart and Spaggiari was not merely a victory but a declaration of the V-twin as an idea. One of only eight coming to market, I believe the weight of that fact must not be measured by a price tag alone.
