The Ducati Mototrans 48 Sport was a 48 cc two-stroke moped presented by Mototrans at the Barcelona Trade Fair of 1963, one of the first two mopeds the company marketed, beside the open-frame Piuma. It had a single-cylinder two-stroke engine of 47.6 cc with three gears changed by a twist grip, a more steeply inclined Dell Orto carburettor than the Piuma, and a sporty finish with metallic paint and tank pinstriping. The makers claimed 4.2 horsepower at 9,600 rpm and a speed of 70 km/h, which was too fast for the 40 km/h limit on mopeds, so Spanish law classed it as a velomotor rather than a moped. Sources differ on whether Mototrans built it or first imported it from Italy.
