1970 Ducati 450 RT Road Racer 436cc.
In the late 1960s and early 1970s, the sport of motocross and the off-road motorcycle market was on fire. The big four plus the nuts at Hodaka from Japan along with niche Europeans Bultaco and Husqvarna were selling dirt bikes like gangbusters. The American importer of Ducati convinced the Italians back in the old country to build a purpose-built MX-er. They came up with the 450 RT Desmo.
The 450 RT Desmo was powered by a 436cc air-cooled thumper pounding out 38 HP and mountains of torque. Its most notable feature is that it employed the Desmodromic valve system that Ducati's are famous for. It was and still is the only motocross bike ever to use the desmodromic system.
