Two Wheel Homologation Special - Ducati 851 SP2 Tribute

New Inventory - 1991 Ducati 851 SP2 Tribute

Ask nearly any motorcycle enthusiast to describe their ultimate sport bike and nearly every enthusiast will respond “Ducati”. Having built some of the most amazing performance motorcycles in the world with a wide range of uses, Ducati today continues to provide both artistry and engineering of premier quality. And while there are many models over the years that set a high-water mark for racing and overall performance, the SP2 was something so special that more than 30 years later, it is still revered as one of the most important high-performance motorcycles of the century.

Steeped in Italian manufacturing history, the Ducati family evolved their manufacturing to include high tech machining and race-proven engineering to deliver not just fast motorcycles, but beautifully balanced and artfully designed performance machines capable of winning in a wide range of venues including first place in the 1991 and 1992 World Superbike Championships riding the Ducati SP2.

Shortly after the initial development of the Ducati 851 Strada, improvements steadily continued until the 851 became the fastest machine Ducati had ever designed. Impressive as that was, in 1990, the homologated Ducati SP2 would benefit from a bored out 851cc engine to 888 cc which they produced in limited numbers. Completing fewer than 500 by the close of series manufacturing at the end of 1991, the SP2 went on to become one of the most sought after Ducatis of the 20th century. The resultant rarity and collector enthusiasm for the homologated SP2 has launched the original variants into stratospheric prices, somewhat defeating the purpose of their original intent – to go fast, win races, and deliver unbelievable road-going adventure for capable riders.

To meet the same goals of the original build, the former owner of this Ducati 851 set about configuring this example to SP2 level specifications...
