Ducati was established in 1926 by Antonio Ducati and his sons, initially producing electrical components. After WW2 they moved into motorcycles with the Cucciola, essentially a pushbike with a clip-on engine but by the 1960s had become associated with performance bikes selling a range of sporty 250 and 350 singles. In response to the demand for larger capacity bikes, chief engineer Fabio Taglioni designed the classic vee-twin bevel drive engine first used in the 1971 GT750. This proved to be an immediate success, helped considerably by Paul Smarts' win in the 1972 Imola 200 race. This started a long tradition of race-winning vee-twin that has gone on to dominate World Superbike racing over the years.
The 750 Sport is quite a rare model and was only manufactured for a couple of years. The bike is based on the trellis frame of the 750 F1, Ducati's definitive mid-1980s production superbike and the 750 Sport was aimed at reviving the glorious past of the bevel-twins of the early 1970s. The lightweight and comfortable riding position made the 750 Sport an easy-to-ride and intuitive motorcycle for all riders. This 1990 model fitted with a Produro exhaust and a removable single seat cove has had a recent new battery, an Electrexworld stator, both tyres replaced, a two-tone leather seat cover, carbs cleaned and balanced and the cam belts replaced. It comes supplied with an MOT until August next year and a current V5C.
