68 Ducati 250 Race Bike!
Ducati, a name long synonymous with motorcycle racing, actually started out manufacturing
electronic components. Founded in 1926 by the Ducati family, and officially named
"The Societa Radio Brevetti Ducati", they soon became a world leader in the manufacture of
radios, electronic components, and even cameras! The company grew by leaps and bounds,
employing over 11,000 workers before allied bombing campaigns during the Second World War
destroyed the Borgo Panigale factory in 1944.
Ducati engineers designed their first 250 cc for the track knowing that racing once again
would provide all the experience they needed to eventually make a great 250 cc street machine.
The prototype 250 Ducati won most of its races in America, many of which were run in
conjunction with 500 cc events. The first street-legal Ducati 250 made its debut at the Milan Fair
in April 1961. The 250 was so popular among sport riders that in 1963 Ducati introduced a
sizzling updated version to the U.S. known as the Diana Mark 3 Super Sport which turned
out to be the fastest 250 street bike in the world.
