DUCATI

The Ducati 500 made its debut at the Milan Show in 1977, showcasing the brand’s innovation and racing pedigree. At its heart is a 4-stroke, 90° V-twin engine with SOHC, a desmodromic valve train, and two valves per cylinder, with the cams driven by belts — technology that cemented Ducati’s reputation for engineering excellence.

True to Ducati’s DNA, the 500 wasn’t just a road bike; it was also campaigned in racing, further enhancing its motorsport heritage.

This particular example is registered and licensed for the road, making it an attractive option for both collectors and riders. It will require a new battery before returning to active use, but otherwise presents as a fine opportunity to own a piece of Ducati history.

Rare, evocative, and unmistakably Italian, the 500 Ducati is a collector’s motorcycle that celebrates both Ducati’s racing spirit and its commitment to unique engineering solutions.
