While the 851 reaps success both on and off the track, Ducati is also dedicated to another type of motorcycle that is particularly popular with Ducatisti around the world: the 900 Superlight, which represents a limited edition of the 900 SS. The story of the world title won by Mike Hailwood on the Isle of Man in 1978 with the Ducati 900 SS is one of the legends of racing history. In 1974 the British rider had practically brought his career to a close after a terrible accident in Germany. At Silverstone in 1977, however, he met Steve Wynne of Sport Motor Cycles Ltd. in Manchester. For '91, Ducati offers the 900SS to U.S. riders—but a vastly different version from the one sold in Europe last year. Making changes with a swiftness previously reserved for Japanese firms, Ducati overhauled the 900SS, much as it did when creating the 907 LE. from the 906 Paso—which also saw only one year of production. Back again is the 90. An older 900SS is likely to be in the region of £3000 from a private sale or closer to £3500 in a dealership, which is good value in the Ducati world. Real minters retail at closer to £4000 while the prices of the 1000SS start at £4000, however it is a rarer machine in the used market as it was pretty unpopular back in the day.

Ducati 900SS FE It's 1991 and the Bologna SuperSport machines feature a white frame which sets off the blood-red colour scheme perfectly, I thought it couldn't get any better, but fast-forward seven years and my ultimate incarnation of 900SS is born - the FE or 'Final Edition'. The Ducati people in New Jersey had opted, for some reasons of their own, to send me the 900ss-sp for testing - rather than their 916 crazy-fast, state-of-the-art superbike track-racer. It was far too fast, they said - and prohibitively expensive - to farm out for testing to a gang of half-mad Colorado cowboys who think they're world-class Cafe.
Mike proposed a modern reworking of Ducati's own 900 Superlight—a sportier, more aggressive version of the 900 SS—and chose to focus on handling and lightness as the foundation of the build. "As Lotus design engineer Colin Chapman once said, 'simplify, then add lightness.'. That's my mantra," says Mike. Rather than attempt to. The Ducati 900SS was fitted with twin 40mm Dell'Orto carburettors, the engine architecture was immediately familiar - it's an air-cooled 90º L-twin with a single overhead cam per bank, two desmodromic valves per cylinder, a 5-speed transmission, traditional telescopic forks up front and twin shock absorbers in the rear.

900 SS IOM TT Mike Hailwood's return to racing and the historic world title achieved on the Isle of Man. 1978 was another exceptional year for Ducati in terms of race results. Bashed on the concrete bottom, flesh ripped off, a Sausage Creature with no teeth. So that's how the 900SS used to feel. Like an impossibly fast sports motorcycle. At least, that's how famous "gonzo" journalist Hunter Thompson described it. (By the way, "gonzo" journalism sounds like a lot of fun.)
