4 out of 5 stars A good book if your interested in Ducati History   September 11, 2001
13 out of 13 found this review helpful

The book is for you if you're interested in the history and development of Ducati's from one model to the next. It also has a fair amount of technical information about how each model varies from the next. What I didn't like was that it had only a few color photos and very little information on more recent models (1995 and up)....


5 out of 5 stars Great general history of Ducati and models   March 23, 1999
9 out of 10 found this review helpful

A very thorough and detailed history of Ducati with a model by model, year by year breakdown. Great to get a general history of Ducati or if you are considering buying one of their bikes. The model specifications at the rear are handy though need to be read in conjunction with the book to get every detail on a particular model in a particular year. Focuses more on the last 20 yrs of Ducati, but could still be considered the definative book on Ducati. A few more pictures would be nice.


5 out of 5 stars Lots of technical information, without getting boring   March 22, 1999

I bought this book out of curiosity, and because I am interested in Ducati motorcycles. And I would say that this book fulfills any need for information about Ducati and the story about the bikes and the men behind it. Great book ! Recommended!


4 out of 5 stars A Ducatisti must!   June 11, 1998

Great book to have to show friends and to enjoy browsing on a lazy, rainy afternoon when you should be out riding, but can't. Good pics and fair perspective about the bikes and the people who created them.
