The book features all of the motorcycles from Ducati's storied history, including the groundbreaking Desmodromic 750 Super Sport, the Mike Hailwood Replica, the Superbike-dominating 916, and the epic Panigale.

It's a collection that demands shelf space in the library of any true motorcycle collector or fan.
Harley-Davidson: words that evoke the open American road and the 'Made in America' tradition like no others.

It is fully illustrated with pictures of the bikes and those who have ridden them as well as beautiful examples of H-D's distinctive design aesthetic in advertising and collectibles.
