Announced in 1988, the Ducati SuperSport used a Pantah based 904 cc air-cooled 90° V-twin, two-valve "Desmodue" engine with crankcases derived from the 851 motor, mounted in a tubular trellis frame. From 1988 to 1991, the model was called a 900 SuperSport, and had a full fairing. The 1989 Supersport received a revised air/oil cooled motor from the 906cc Ducati Paso incorporating many changes to the Pantah motor, including a six-speed gear box. From 1989 to 1990 the motorcycle was fitted with a Marzocchi rear suspension, then first changed to Showa, and then to better quality Marzocchi damping in 1990.

 

This machine was offered at the British Motorcycle Museum, H and H sale 2nd March 2019 with an auction estimate of £ 4000-6000

In my opinion the best looking and the fastest Ducati single

Beautiful picture from Roberto Pattoni's official website; Roberto is Giuseppe Pattoni's son who builds these replicas

2003 Moto GP Ducati desmosedici

great looking engine from Borgo Panigale (Bologna)

Today, 1st of May, I rode the first, highly enjoyable miles on this little gem. It may not be 100% original, but I wanted it like this. I do not like the big original "DESMO" side covers and the chromium plated rear mudguard. I prefer the beautifully tapered, slightly (well, very slightly) silenced "Decibel"- megga from Paul Dunstall to the original, quite restrictive, but still rather noisy "tagliato a fetta"-silencer by Silentium

Cute number plate; DM for "Ducati Meccanica", 1970 is obvious. To protect the reconditionned engine, I use a K&N-filter and not the much sexier bellmouth on the SSI Dell'orto; seat still bears the period "Luxmoto" sticker: Rob Noorlander, a Dutch Ducati specialist, racer and enthusiast, ran this company in Bettendorf, Luxembourg.

The complete bike without it's HF03 engine; frame is modified Aprilia 250 GP, bodywork is Honda RS250. HF03 stands for third engine built by Helmuth Fath

This is the only Helmut Fath built 250cc 2-stroke bike in the world. I have acquired it and will try to rebuild it.

Ready for the road

Place: Museo Ducati, Bologna, It

125cc Rumi Formichino in "art déco"-style

You can buy one of these; possibly the only replica built by the son of the builder of the original bike! These things are really fast..;

Well known picture of Helmut Fath and Wolfgang Kalauch on their BMW beating World Championship winning URS outfit.

I should never have sold this one; it was great fun to ride and such a beauty!

starts to look like a bike with both cylinders and heads fitted

At Ducati they built this quite modern liquid cooled 3-cylinder dohc 4-valve engine to make an official return to GP racing; alas, it did not go beyond prototype stage

Great animation, zoom in to see it all work in harmony. This is the famous "triple knocker" with 2 opening and one closing camshaft. I found this great animation here: www.bevel-enthusiasm.com/jcont/desmo.htm Compliments to the author! Too bad I don't read any Japanese.You get this animation viewed from the bevel drive side here: www.bevel-enthusiasm.com/jcont/bevelgear.htm Thank you very much, Hartmut, for having traced back the source!

Bergamo artist and factory boss Donnino Rumi sculpted this little marvel; all the body parts (except footboards, wheels and leading link covers) are cast aluminum!- Yes, even the silencer, the mudguards and the chain enclosure. The front and rear bodies are bolted to the engine.

Bart Crauwels is not only a great rider, but also an excellent motorcycle engineer with real passion. He designed and builds (and sells) a quite simple, but very efficient kit for those who don't like the clattering of modern Ducati dry clutches.

This is his brainchild too, a 1000cc Ducati V twin with the horizontal cylinder supercharged by the vertical one feeding compressed air in a pressure reservoir. Admission pressure is a constant 2 bar; so far 112 Nm torque and more than 100 hp. Feels like a 1000cc big single, yet revs far beyond 10.000 rpm!!

only Italians could build this beauty!

chain driven high camshaft with one(!) cam;

very popular as clubracer, 16 hp/8500rpm

Period pictures kindly handed over by Traudl Fath, a most welcome guest at Hockenheim Classics 2010. She attends the meeting every year!

Fabio Taglioni's masterpiece

Fitting engine to frame (correct: frame to engine..) is a lot easier without the front cylinder and head

One of two period pictures showing the great Helmuth Fath and his 250 boxer 2-stroke brainchild; rider should be Martin Wimmer

rebuilding the wheels

All types of cylinders have been modified and tried: Hummel, Honda RS, Rotax, Suzuki...

beautifully (but not over-) restored

NSU's impressive World Championship winning and record breaking 500cc supercharged twin

Here in Ursenbach a genius rests in peace since 1993
