Ducati was established in 1926 by Antonnio 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. By the 60s they 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 V 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 and the early round case V Twins have gone on to be some of the most desirable bikes of the era.

This matching numbers 1975 round case 750GT has been part of an Italian bike enthusiast's small private collection since 2016 and is only being offered for sale as he is now downsizing. First sold in the USA, where the frame and engine numbers matched each other with the number stamped on a foil sticker on the headstock, this beautiful example in deep metallic red and black had been restored by a specialist in the USA and bought by the vendor whilst on holiday. Initially used at his house in Poland, it was imported into the UK in 2018 and has only seen careful pleasure use since. The restoration has been carried out to a good standard keeping it as original as possible including Ducati stamped Conti silencers. This rare 1970s classic has just had a service by Italian bike specialist Made In Italy Motorcycles in Stowmarket and comes supplied with an owners manual, parts manual, an MOT until 20-10-23 and a current V5C.
