I worked on Ducati's as a mechanic in the early to mid 90s so always liked them from then (althpough not at the time with 916 warranty stuff). Have a 1997 916 Bip, a Laverda Kevlar early bike in bits and loads of other bikes. I am also involved in Classic Superbike racing at the Isle of Man as well for my sins, Alasdair
916's Wow gorgeous game movers when they came out in 1994 and still head turners today. I always had a bit of the soft spot for those mid nineties middle weight Lav's too. Bet they can carve an arch and hit an apex better than most.
They handle lovely, the motors were a bit of a let down with reliabilty later on. This obe is very early so all good.
