Ducati 900 NCR & Jimmy Adamo - Daytona races 1981 - motorcycle racing photo

Description: A superb and rare photo of the famous Ducati 900 NCR, shown in winning form during the Battle of the Twins races at Daytona in March 1981. On the bike we see the magnificent Jimmy Adamo. It was the first major international victory for Ducati in the new Battle of the Twins racing class. Jimmy Adamo is seen riding an ex-factory Ducati 900 NCR which was prepared by Reno Leoni. The engine was a modified Ducati 900SS unit and had a capacity of exactly 947cc. It delivered a power output of 110bhp at 8,500 r.p.m. This was enough to propel the bike to a top speed of 156 mph (251 km/h). In the 1970’s and 1980’s, racing with production based machinery was extremely popular in Europe. These events were responsible for the quick gaining popularity of the heavier sports motorcycles, like the Ducati 750 SS, the Moto Guzzi V7 Sport, the Benelli 650 Tornado and the Laverda 750 SFC, but also British machines like the Norton Commando, Triumph Trident & BSA Rocket 3, but also the Japanese superbikes like the Honda CB 750 Four and the Kawasaki two strokes. Riders that would make world fame, like Franco Uncini and Marco Lucchinelli, all participated in these races before they made the steps to the Grand Prix World Championship racing scene. The Battle of the Twins racing series was started up in 1981 in the USA but soon was being organized in Europe as well. Without doubt the Ducati NCR was one of the best machines for this great racing class, recreating that wonderful 1970s era of classic four stroke racing. Without doubt this is a rare opportunity to obtain a very nice non period image that reflects a wonderful era of Ducati’s rich history in a wonderful way. This is your rare chance to own this image, therefore it is printed in a nice large format of ca. 7.5" x 11.5" (ca.19 x 29 cm).
