The essential beauty and style of the Ducati GT models of the 1970s – a bike to be ridden every day with a balance of two-up comfort and Ducati Desmo power. The GT 1000 introduces many new features that reflect fondly on the past, while being interpreted in a thoroughly modern way.

Back in 1971 the GT was a bike to be ridden every day; it combined sport bike and touring features in a balanced and beautiful Italian package. With a dual seat and single headlamp, it was an essential motorcycle, much like today’s “naked” or “traditional” motorcycles. It was a commonsense motorcycle, but its beauty was uncommon. The L-Twin engine was left fully exposed to flaunt its elegant features. Dual chrome silencers swept rearward accenting the attractive lines of the bike. Everyday performance was never so well executed. Until now.
