Formula 73 is a contemporary urban café racer that reinterprets the rebellious spirit of the 70s with its sleek lines and big personality. Produced as a series of 873 numbered units, this collector’s model is designed to preserve a timeless legacy in the modern era.
The Formula 73 is inspired by the 750 Super Sport Desmo, which has its roots in the 750 Imola Desmo, winner of the 1972 Imola 200. That same spirit is now reinterpreted in a limited edition of 873 units.
Formula 73 combines style, character and riding pleasure. A faithful interpretation of the Café Racer spirit, complete with semi-handlebar with bar-end mirrors, front fairing and tapered tail, a single seat, steel trellis frame and 17-inch spoked wheels. Formula 73 offers more than a motorcycling experience – it’s a full sensory journey.
Quality components
Formula 73 adopts Rizoma billet aluminium elements that include the brake and clutch levers with oil radiators, footpegs and fuel cap. Solutions that capture the eye and elevate the essence of the bike. And to ensure every bike is unique, the steering plate bears the model name and serial number.
803 cc Desmodue engine
Tradition that evolves with the 803 cc Desmodue engine, the true star of the Formula 73. An L-twin with two-valve desmodromic timing that is modern but faithful to the technical principles on which Ducati has cemented its legend. An engine designed to offer a manageable response and smooth riding, for a presence on the road that’s impossible to ignore.

We can introduce you to a selected panel of lenders, which includes manufacturer lenders linked directly to the franchises that we represent. An introduction to a lender does not amount to independent financial advice and we act as their agent for this introduction. Our approach is to introduce you first to the manufacturer lender linked directly to the particular franchise you are purchasing your vehicle from, who are usually able to offer the best available package for you, taking into account both interest rates and other contributions. If they are unable to make you an offer of finance, we then seek to introduce you to whichever of the other lenders on our panel is able to make the next best offer of finance for you. Our aim is to secure the best deal you are eligible for from our panel of lenders. Lenders may pay a fixed commission to us for introducing you to them, calculated by reference to the vehicle model or amount you borrow. Different lenders may pay different commissions for such introductions, and manufacturer lenders linked directly to the franchises that we represent may also provide preferential rates to us for the funding of our vehicle stock and also provide financial support for our training and marketing. But any such amounts they and other lenders pay us will not affect the amounts you pay under your finance agreement, all of which are set by the lender concerned. If you ask us what the amount of commission is, we will tell you in good time before the Finance agreement is executed. All finance applications are subject to status, terms and conditions apply, UK residents only, 18’s or over. Guarantees may be required.
