The 1990 Ducati 900SS is, arguably, one of the most powerful machines in its class, and also boasted a dry weight of only 180 kg. Also, it had fittings such as a fully-adjustable, 40mm Marzocchi upside down fork, an adjustable Marzocchi monoshock with a progressive linkage as a rear suspension, Brembo brakes with dual front disc brakes and a single disc in the rear, a single seat, a full-fairing with a small windscreen and die-cast aluminium wheels.
In the engine department it sports a four-stroke, air-cooled, 904cc, 90-degree V-Twin powerhouse mated to a six-speed manual transmission with a chain final drive, that produces a claimed 84 horsepower and 84 Nm of torque.
