1986 Ducati 750 F1 Montjuich
Registration no. C739 KJO
Frame no. ZDM750M131
Engine no. DM750L7502056

With its all-new range of water-cooled, eight-valve twins just over the horizon, Ducati capitalised on the success of its existing 750 F1 model by releasing a series of hand-built, limited edition race replicas: Montjuich, Santamonica and Laguna Seca, the former celebrating the Italian manufacturer's many endurance racing victories at the eponymous circuit in Spanish city of Barcelona. One of the most exotic models ever offered by Ducati, the Montjuich came with an extensively revised engine featuring different crankcases, a strengthened gearbox, larger inlet ports, 'hotter' cams, bigger carburettors, Kokusan ignition, and an extremely loud Verlicchi competition exhaust system. Only 200 were made, all in 1986 (20 allocated to the USA. The Montjuich was one of the most exclusive motorcycles of its time and is highly prized by Ducati collectors.

Currently displaying a total of 3,812 miles on the odometer, this beautiful Montjuich was imported by Three Cross (Imports) Ltd in 1986, as confirmed by their letter on file. First registered in March 1990, the Ducati was purchased in the early 1990s by the late owner, who is its first registered keeper in the UK. Used sparingly since acquisition, the machine will require recommissioning before it returns to the road (the engine turns over and the gears engage). Offered with an expired MoT (1990-1991); the early 1990s purchase receipt: and old/current V5C registration documents.
Offered without key
