Ducati Collezione 100 Motorcycle Collection
In 1972, Paul Smart rode a Ducati to victory at the Imola 200, beating Giacomo Agostini's MV Agusta on Italian soil and putting the Bologna marque on the global sportbike map. To mark 100 years, Ducati pulled that race-winning silver livery out of the archive and put it on the Panigale V4 S, then did the same across its entire lineup: ten models, each wearing a paint scheme tied to a specific moment in Ducati history, limited to 100 units worldwide. The Diavel V4 RS revives the 1979 900 Replica born from Mike Hailwood's fairytale Isle of Man TT win, the XDiavel V4 wears the "California Hot Rod" livery Cook Neilson rode to win Daytona in 1977, and the DesertX pulls from the 1981 Pantah "Ice," a studded-tire bike Ducati built to entertain crowds on frozen Alpine tracks between car races. Every bike gets billet-machined steering heads, triple clamps, and fuel cap, Centenario Bronze brake calipers, Alcantara or leather seating, a serialized plate on the triple clamp, and a dry clutch on all models except the Scrambler and DesertX. Each one ships with a color-matched rear stand, a bike cover, a certificate of authenticity, and two signed prints by Italian artist Ugo Nespolo, who painted each bike alongside the historic machine that inspired it.
