The Ducati 900 MHR was a race replica made by Ducati from 1979 until 1984. The bike was derived from the 900 SS (Super Sport) and was made in limited numbers. The maker manufactured 5,153 900 MHR models and 1,038 1000 MHR versions.
In 1984, the Italian motorcycle manufacturer launched the Ducati 900 MHR, a race replica motorcycle made after Mike Hailwood won the Tourist Trophy at the Isle of Men in 1978. The replica was very similar to the actual racing motorcycle, which was actually a factory 900 SS model.
In the visual department, the 1984 model was similar to previous models, packing standard features, such as a full fairing with a round headlight up front, a large windscreen, a single seat with lumbar support, a center stand, and lightweight five-spoke aluminum wheels.
The bike was built around a steel trellis frame with a 38 mm Marzocchi telescopic fork on the front and twin adjustable Marzocchi shock absorbers on the rear, offering excellent suspension performance and handling.
The braking performance was handled by two 280 mm discs on the front wheel engaged by two-piston calipers and a 260 mm disc on the rear wheel tied to a single-piston caliper, providing optimum stopping power.
As for the power figures, the 1984 Ducati 900 MHR had its heartbeat set by an 864cc four-stroke V-twin air-cooled engine that delivered an output power of 80 hp with a peak force at 7,500 rpm and 85 Nm (63 lb-ft) torque at 5,800 rpm.
