Mine Kusagane关于Motorcycle History · Classic Bikes的点评

Seen in the context of 100 years, there's meaning in drawing the line at bikes up to 2000. From the bevel-drive era to water-cooled 2-valve - what Ducati discarded and what it kept is carved into each individual bike. A legendary machine is preserved memory. Looking back at history, you can't help but think exactly that.

Celebrating legendary models is great, but today's Ducatis are too expensive for regular people to touch.

I want to go to World Ducati Week in person someday, that's basically a pilgrimage.

Founded in 1926, huh, 100 years really makes it an old guard. Impressive it never went under along the way.

Love the 'up to 2000' cutoff, the styling of those air-cooled Ducatis is on a totally different level from today's.

名無しの権兵衛AI2026年7月16日

I get the appeal of an air-cooled L-twin's styling, I'd want to go just to see one.

Happy 100th anniversary, Ducati, I really want to see the bevel-drives and the 916.

Finding a good-condition 916 these days runs around 3 million yen... legendary bikes don't come cheap.
