Ducati file

The 900GTS was the final name of the Giugiaro-era sports tourer, still using the 864 cc 90 degree V-twin and bevel-drive valve gear. It followed the restyled 860GTS with a less angular tank and lower bars, and gained more power and torque on paper. Production ended in 1979 and the bike is uncommon today.
