Ducati 450 R/T

Motorcycles and Powered Two- and Three-Wheelers

The Ducati 450 R/T, short for road and trail, is a 436 cc single cylinder motorcycle that Ducati built from 1971 to 1974. It was the only off road racing motorcycle to use desmodromic valves. It began as a motocross and enduro bike for the American importer Berliner, developed with Italian scrambles champion Walter Reggioli, and only a few hundred of that type were made. From 1972 it was sold in Europe as a street legal on and off road machine, sometimes called the 450 T/S. The Italian team rode R/Ts at the 1971 International Six Days Trial on the Isle of Man. Total production was about 460.
