Ducati's Formula 73 is a super-limited, retro-inspired cafe racer
Ducati just dropped the Formula 73, a super-limited cafe racer inspired by the 1972 Imola win by Paul Smart and Bruno Spaggiari.
Only 873 bikes will be made, each with its own serial number and certificate—so it's got serious collector energy.
The bike packs an 803cc L-twin engine
Under the hood, you get an 803cc L-twin engine pushing out 73hp, plus a steel trellis frame and a 330-mm front disk with a four-piston caliper for sharp handling.
Tech-wise, it packs cornering ABS, traction control, quickshifter, two riding modes and a crisp TFT display.
It's finished off with Rizoma billet aluminum touches and a Termignoni exhaust for that classic-meets-modern look.
The Formula 73 will set you back by $19,995
The Formula 73 is set at $19,995, hits European dealerships this spring and rolls out to the rest of the world by the end of summer 2026.
If you're into rare bikes or Ducati history—and want something that stands out—this one might be worth keeping on your radar.
