In 1971 Ducatis chief engineer Fabio Taglioni designed the classic V Twin bevel drive engine first used in the GT750. This proved to be an immediate success with Paul Smart’s winning the 1972 Imola 200 race, beginning a long tradition of race-winning V twins that have gone on to dominate World Superbike racing over the years. The 888 model launched in 1991 won the World Championship that year and the next with American rider Doug Polen on board. Works supplied bikes were made available to other selected riders and teams with Carl Fogarty finishing second in 1993 and Italian rider Mauro Lucchiari tenth with a best finish of second in the San Marino round.

This bike was one of two supplied to the Grottini Team to be used in the 1993 championship by Mauro Lucchiari. It has been recommissioned by Heinz Laux/Ducati Bursi and has been part of a private collection in Germany for a number of years. It will come supplied with a paddock stand and a Certificate of Provenance.
