IT TOOK a while – and longer than we expected – but Ducati’s 916 V-twin superbike is now very much on the collector radar.
Collectability is one of those borderline intangible things that is influenced by a host of factors. Included among them is desirability, popularity when new, rarity, physical beauty and race success.
In the case of the 916, it’s now widely regarded as one of the most beautiful motorcycles ever made. The creator of the legendary lines was Massimo Tamburini, (RIP) himself a colourful character with a long motorcycle CV, including MV Agusta’s revival F4 series. Two examples are shown together here: 1994 Ducati 916 and 2006 MV Agusta F4 1000 Nero.
