Ducati history

1954 Ducati GS125 Marianna

Ducati was founded in 1926 by Adriano and Marcello Ducati. They founded the company in Bologna to produce electrical components. After the second world war, the factory was left badly damaged and was taken over by the government in exchange for their investment.

Ducati, looking for new opportunities began producing the Cucciolo in 1946, which was a 50cc four-stroke that clipped onto a bicycle frame. The Cucciolo was a huge success and in 1954 the firm appointed Fabio Taglioni as it's new chief designer.
