The rise of the classics....

.... is happening. I think this is a Ducati Classic Sport with a customised tank, seat, exhaust and race plate. [Kudos to my follower on Pinterest for such a great pic!]

The Ducati Classic Sport was only made for a few years in the mid to late 'noughties. Ducati assessed it was a loss leader and stopped production.

As MCN writes this week they may have been aiming at the right market but just too soon. More people can connect with bikes and biking through the sixties era of more 'soulful' bikes.

Keep an eye on the classic market. The new Honda CB1100 is just the beginning I reckon.
