Started in 1926, Ducati offered their first original motorcycle dubbed T2 in 1946. Driven by a 2-liter engine, the motorcycle reached the top speed of 60 km/h.

In 1952, the Ducati Cruiser showed up. Powered by an 8-liter engine, the motorcycle boasted a number of revolutionary features, including an automatic gearbox and an electric starter.

In 1956, the company developed a unique gas distribution mechanism dubbed Desmo. The very essence of it was controlling the process of raising and lowering the valves that ensures their timely opening and closing at all revolutions of the engine crankshaft. The Desmo system solved several important tasks at once. Well, it excluded the possibility of collision and destruction of the piston with the valve, their overheating and subsequent failure, and also neutralized the likelihood of premature ignition of the fuel-air mixture. The Desmo system greatly increased the reliability and efficiency of the powerplant but it also resulted in the final cost. The Desmo mechanism has become a real hallmark of the brand. It’s still utilized in their models.

In the 1970s, the company managed to design a camshaft with a timing belt. Secondly, in the manufacture of cylinders, ordinary iron was replaced by an aluminum alloy with a nickel-silicon coating. Thirdly, Ducati developed the famous tubular frame made of chrome-molybdenum steel.

In the 2010s, the company keeps expanding its product line, seizing new niches in the market, and introducing innovations in their products. If you are eager to learn more about their new motorcycles, look through this 2020 ducati review. Perhaps, it will help you to choose the best motorcycle from this company.
