Ducati MHR 1000 Mike Hailwood Replica
Mike Hailwood Replica
With the Ducati Mike Hailwood Replica, official abbreviation: MHR, an era ended. It was the last Ducati with a vertical shaft. It was built with 900 and 1000 cm³
It couldn’t be more iconic, because the man this motorcycle was named after is a myth in itself. This was mainly due to his spectacular comeback in 1978: on a tuned D.ucati 900 SS, Mike Hailwood won the Tourist Trophy. The nine-time world champion was now 38 and had long since retired from racing; The fact that he now beat his eternal rival Phil Read on a supposedly inferior motorcycle made him a legend – and his motorcycle too.
