This Desmo project is a special one, as all Ducati builds are, but it’s also one that brings some anxiety along with it, as carving up a second Duscati Desmosedici D16RR may push the Ducatisti purists over the edge. Only 1500 Desmosedicis were created globally and this one is a fine specimen. It is number 0245/1500 and has 4,158 miles on the clock. It’s a rider no doubt and that is what its owner intends to do even more of with the newly modified machine. Being a surgeon, he’s a handy and intelligent guy and when his age started creeping up past his skeletal ability to ride a superbike, rather than sell the Desmo, he chose to do exactly as he wanted and build a Desmo Streetfighter with some more comfortable ergonomics. That’s where we come in.
As the Desmo came together we realized that our latest Colab helmet with Bell was nearly completed so we aligned the launch of the bike and the new Mulholland helmet which was inadvertently almost a dead match for the Desmo Red.
