Our take on this /// Verdict
The Ducati GT1000 is a motorcycle that seamlessly blends retro styling with modern performance, making it a unique and compelling choice for riders. Its comfortable riding position, thanks to the more upright handlebars and a cushy stepped seat, makes it ideal for longer rides. The bikes light weight, despite its tall seat height, ensures it is easy to maneuver and handle, even for shorter riders. The twin-plug 1000 DS engine delivers ample midrange power and a thrilling top-end performance, though it can be a bit juddery at low RPMs. The wet clutch and six-speed transmission are smooth and effortless to use, adding to the bikes overall character. While the retro gauges and high gearing might require some adjustment, the GT1000s balance of sport and light touring capabilities makes it a standout in its class.
