Posted @withregram • @bonhamsbikes Consigned for our Collectors’ Motorcycles at the Barber Museum auction this magnificent 1981 Ducati TT2 🏍🏁

TT2 no. 022, this machine, was on display at the factory's Museo Ducati in Bologna for years until purchased in 1998 by Daniele Casolari. He maintained the bike at the Museum in Bologna until it was purchased in 2012 by the vendor. Originally, the bike was delivered to Rino Caracchi (the "C" in NCR) who recognized the bike as one he was contracted to produce for the Ducati factory racing efforts in the 1980s. The bike comes with a signed statement from him testifying to that fact.
