DUCATIMille MHR (Mike Hailwood Replica) 1984 - 1985

　　The Ducati MHR was a motorcycle manufactured by Ducati from 1979 until 1986. The MHR was presented at the 1979 London Motor Show, one after Mike Hailwood won the Tourist Trophy (TT F1 category) riding a 900 SS developed by Ducati's racing team NCR.

　　In 1984, the Italian motorcycle maker launched the Ducati Mille MHR (Mike Hailwood Replica), a sports motorcycle that replaced the MHR900ES and featured a redesigned bevel engine, a two mm increased bore, and two mm larger intake and exhaust valves.

　　The motorcycle was fitted with standard features, such as a full fairing, a round headlight up front, a large windscreen for excellent wind protection, a single seat with lumbar support, a dual exhaust system with a muffler on each side, and five-spoke lightweight wheels.

　　The bike's suspension system comprised a 38 mm oil-damped Marzocchi telescopic fork on the front and dual five-way preload-adjustable Marzocchi shocks on the rear, providing excellent handling capabilities.

　　The braking performance was achieved by a pair of 280 mm discs on the front wheel coupled to a dual-piston caliper and a 260 mm disc on the rear wheel engaged by a single-piston caliper.

　　Underneath its fairing, the 1984 Ducati Mille MHR (Mike Hailwood Replica) had installed a 973cc four-stroke air-cooled V-twin engine that delivered 90 hp at 7,500 rpm and 85 Nm (63 lb-ft) torque at 5,800 rpm.

　　The bike was discontinued in 1986 after 7,169 units were made (6,058 units with a 900cc engine and 1,111 units with a 1,000cc engine).
