Dual Sport bikes have long been a part of Ducati's line up and today Ductalk features the 450 R/T, a true dirt machine created for the American market, with the availability of headlights to make it streetable. It was the first of the dual sport Ducati's to feature desmodromic valves.  Sold in limited numbers, many found the motors robbed to make race bikes, making a solid original 450 R/T a fairly rare find today.  The brochure featured is from the early 70's distributed by the Berliner Motor Company, the US Ducati distibuter of that day. One of a number of brochures, restoration photos and other historic items featured in Ducati.net's "Museum Ducati - Photos, Brochures, and Unusual Things" area.
