VEHICLE REVIEW

2009 Ducati Sport 1000S (Café Racer style)

In a repeat of history, Ducati has followed the 1970s trend of individualism and performance enhancement with a period-style fairing on the Sport 1000 S. Boasting a dual seat and twin shocks, the Sport 1000 S lets you enjoy the Café Racer style two-up. The bold colour schemes are black or red with white stripe, with both versions sporting black frames, wheels and exhaust systems to complete the classic picture. A removable tailpiece cover gives the Sport 1000 S the Café Racer look, but when removed reveals a seat for your favourite passenger.
The Sport 1000 S is built with quality throughout. Its confident road holding is thanks to its race-inspired Trellis frame and sport-tuned suspension. It uses high performance Marzocchi 43mm upside-down front forks with classic brushed aluminium surfaces, while rear suspension is handled by twin high performance fully adjustable Sachs shocks. The Sport 1000 S bristles with classic Café Racer appeal, while still delivering the superior road holding and performance you expect from Ducati. The Sport Classic family recreated the original styles produced by Ducati throughout the 1970s, motorcycles characterised by minimalist, sports designs with exposed frames and classic bodywork shapes typical of the 'Café Racer' era. To emphasis the unique style of these bikes, Ducati applied modern engineering techniques and finishes to original component designs, featuring plenty of chrome and polished finishes that literally mirror the beautiful details of the original motorcycles.The Sport Classic family is represented by these versions: the Sport 1000 S, using a classically shaped half-fairing with central round headlamp in keeping with the 70s styling, the GT 1000 and the new GT 1000 Touring, a special version of the elegant black with white stripe livery.As well as its traditional colours of red with white stripe, the Sport 1000 S is now available in black with white stripe while the GT 1000 also arrives with the new black with white stripe livery alongside the two-tone scheme of classic silver & smoke grey.

Ducati Sport Classic - engineered for performance

The GT and Sport are both powered by the outstanding Desmo 1000 Dual Spark engine. The torquey air-cooled 90º L-Twin is the perfect match to power bikes with a sporting soul. The cylinders, with their traditional cooling fins and classic 'L' configuration, are direct descendants of the original Taglioni design. Slim and exposed for all to see, the latest 2 valve Desmo system, fuel-injection and computer controlled engine management ensure that the 1000 Dual Spark engine is powerful, dependable and thrilling to ride.
A Lightweight performer(body style)

The Sport Classic design takes advantage of the beauty of the signature Ducati tubular Trellis frame. The renowned strength and rigidity of the ALS 450 tubing has been further improved with complex triangulation and using the engine as a 'stressed member.'
The beauty of wire-spoke wheels grace Ducati road bikes once again. Starting with an alloy hub, the wheels use 36 chromed stainless steel spokes. 17" alloy Excel rims, famous in racing circles for their lightweight performance and durability, are used on the Sport 1000 S, while the GT 1000 is fitted with classic 17" chrome rims. Mounted to the rims are modern interpretations of classic sport tyres, replicating the original patterns, but with modern radial construction techniques and rubber compounds.
The alloy hubs mount dual 320mm brake discs up front and a 245mm disc in the rear, both using lightweight black Brembo floating calipers to provide extra stopping power. Braking performance is further enhanced by classic black, steel-braided brake lines.
