Has anyone on here seen or own a bike from the Ducati Cagiva era? I've heard that they are pretty rare.

Thanks!  [thumbsup]

Any Ducati from the late 80's through 1997 uses the Cagiva font and has Cagiva markings on it.  My 1997 M900 had little Cagiva elephants at several spots on it and the name "Cagiva" appeared in a few places.  My 1993 888 Superbike shows the Cagiva influence.

Ducatis from the Cagiva era aren't all that rare, even if certain models are.

Does my '99 Cagiva Gran Canyon with a 900 Ducati mill count?

I had a 1986 Cagiva Allazurra. HAd a 650 Panta motor ran great. Handled like a super tanker.

My '94 M900 is now out in the Milwaukee area somewhere, liberally covered with nifty little elephants.

My '97 M900 has little Cagiva elephants all over it, and I also own an '87 Indiana.

One of the guys in our local club has one of those.  I rode it.  I guess it feels like an older multistrada

Rare?? I wouldn't say that at all.

ANY Ducati bike made between 1984 and 1998 is a "Cagiva Ducati."

Unless you are referring to Cagiva-branded bikes with a Ducati engine, i.e. Elefant 350/650/750, Alazzurra, and the Gran Canyon.

But none of them create a merry atmosphere of insouciance and bonhomie quite like a revving motorcycle.

1990 851 ... got the cool elephant on the fuel cap.  other than that, close inspection reveals it
to have been assembled on friday afternoon by a guy who had too much vino for lunch.  the
new bikes are semi-infinitely better.

I've got a 1987 Ducati Paso 750 and an '88 Paso project bike. The Paso is not necessarily "rare", but when was the last time you saw one on the road?   ;)

The SS750, SS900, and early Monsters are not rare....the 851/888 bikes are a little more rare.....the 750F1, especially the SantaMonica, Laguna Seca, and Monjuch versions are a bit more rare......then consider some of the other models made in the mid-80's, like the 1984 MHR, and you get a even more rare.....



or a 1985 Mille S2....



or a 1985 600TL...
