Ducati Motor Holding
Redirected from Ducati
Ducati Motor Holding is an Italian motorcycle manufacturer.
Ducati are known for high performance motorcycles with large capacity four-stroke engines featuring a desmodromic valve design.
Desmodromic valves are those which are positively closed by a leverage system, rather than relying on the more conventional springs to close the valves.
The chief designer of Ducati motorcycles was the late Fabio Taglioni (1920-2001).
The company has enjoyed nine World Superbike championships[?] in recent years.
