The Ducati 750 F1 and 750 Montjuich, produced from 1985 to 1988, were high-performance motorcycles that marked a significant evolution in Ducati's design philosophy. Both models were powered by a 748cc, air-cooled, 90-degree V-twin engine, renowned for its intoxicating exhaust note and thrilling power delivery. The F1, a more road-oriented variant, was equipped with a 39mm Dellorto carburetor and a 5-speed gearbox, while the Montjuich, a sportier and more track-focused machine, boasted a 40mm Dellorto carburetor and a 6-speed gearbox. Both models featured a distinctive tubular steel frame, Marzocchi telescopic forks, and a Ducati-designed rear swingarm with twin shocks. The F1 was characterized by its comfortable riding position and its inclusion of a fairing, while the Montjuich sported a more aggressive, clip-on handlebar setup with a smaller, half-fairing.
The 750 F1 and 750 Montjuich were praised for their handling prowess and responsiveness, making them popular choices among both experienced riders and enthusiasts. The F1 provided a more comfortable and versatile ride, making it suitable for everyday commutes and longer journeys, while the Montjuich, with its enhanced performance and agility, was a true track weapon, capable of achieving impressive lap times. Despite their shared engine and chassis fundamentals, these two models offered distinct riding experiences, catering to different rider preferences and riding styles. The Ducati 750 F1 and 750 Montjuich represented a period of transition for the Italian manufacturer, paving the way for the introduction of iconic models such as the 851 and 916, which would solidify Ducati's position as a leading force in the world of sport motorcycles.
