Back to Classics is a channel on YouTube that covers vintage motorcycle rides and builds. Currently, the channel’s in the process of restoring a 1979 Ducati 900 Mike Hailwood replica. The series is just starting, with only one episode uploaded for now.
The Ducati 900s got their start back in 1978 with the Super Sport. The bikes ended up becoming racing machines in the Isle of Man TT, Grand Prixs, and endurance events. Mike Hailwood was one of the main drivers for the legend of the Ducati 900s, winning the 1978 Isle of Man TT. This was huge for Ducati, and so special edition Mike Hailwood replicas were made to pay homage to that victory and were a limited edition. Two hundred units were made in 1979, but due to the success of the model, the replicas entered into production by the year 1980.
