The engine of the Piuma 50cc single-cylinder two-stroke engine that’s mated to a three-speed transmission - isn’t a world-beater by any means whatsoever. But where it lacked in power, it more than made up for by being a dual-purpose model with a hand gear change, universal tires.
Ducati decide in 1961, to release the Piuma 48. This bike comes witha 48cc single cylinder, two-stroke engine that was mated to a single three-speed unit gearbox.
