6.26.2020: Iconic shows this bike as sold. Congratulations to buyer and seller! -dc An awful lot of ink has been spilled concerning the Ducati 916.

The Ducati Superlight I posted up a few days ago was a classic barn-find, with an incredible 300 miles on the odometer and all the dust and neglect you might expect from a bike that has barely turned a wheel in nearly 30 years. The first of today’s two Ducatis is nearly the exact opposite,…
