-The Ducati 851 was a sports motorcycle that debuted in 1987 as a replacement for the Ducati 750 F1. It was dressed in full bodywork and powered by an 851cc Liquid-cooled V-twin engine. It continued production until 1992 when it was replaced by the Ducati 888.

In 1992, the Italian motorcycle maker launched the Ducati 851 Strada Biposto, a sports machine in its sixth and final year of production, packing the same visual, technical, and performance specifications as previous models.

In the aesthetic department, the bike was fitted with standard features, such as a full fairing with a windscreen, integrated turn signals, a rectangular headlight, a dual exhaust system, a single seat, a side stand, and three-spoke lightweight aluminum wheels.

As for power, the 1992 Ducati 851 Strada Biposto had installed an 851cc four-stroke liquid-cooled V-twin engine, fed by an Electronic Fuel Injection (EFI) system, boasting 93 hp with maximum strength at 9,600 rpm and 72Nm (53 lb-ft) torque at 7,000 rpm.

The bike's suspension system comprised a 41 mm upside-down Showa telescopic fork on the front and an adjustable Showa shock absorber on the rear, delivering optimum suspension performance and handling.

In the braking department, the wheels were fitted with two 320 mm discs coupled to four-piston calipers on the front and a 245 mm disc squeezed by a dual-piston caliper on the rear wheel, offering excellent stopping power.
