Ducati History: How the Marianna Started it All - Back to Classics
We tend to take for granted that Ducati has such great reputation as a maker of racing motorcycles. But that was not always the case. In fact, it was the Marianna racing bike of 1955 that laid the foundations for all sporting success Ducati had afterward. So how did this all come about?

It was also the career start of one of the greatest engineers in motorcycle history: Fabio Taglioni.
