History of Ducati motorcycles

Adriano Ducati was a brilliant physics student from Bologna who succeeded in establishing a radio connection between Italy and America in 1924 using short wave. Together with his father and brothers Bruno and Marello, he started the Ducati Radio Company in 1926. This became a success and in the 1930s the Ducati factory became the largest manufacturer of technical components in Italy. The factory was severely damaged by bombing during the Second World War.

Immediately after the war, the Italian government took over the factory and began producing motorcycles there. The first Ducatis (the 48 cc four-stroke Cucciolo) rolled off the production line in 1946. In the 1950s, Ducati successfully participated in Grand Prix races. This made the brand very popular, especially in Italy, and the number of models grew rapidly. It was also during this period that Ducati invented the desmodromic valve control system. The Ducati Scrambler, which was introduced in the 1960s, is still Italy's best-selling motorcycle. Ducati also remained successful on the racetrack in the 1980s and 1990s, including in the superbike class.
