Discover moreOne of the most surprising motorcycles exhibited in the museum is undoubtedly the Siluro and it is easy to see how this very unusual looking Ducati 100 got its ‘torpedo’ nickname.
Based on Fabio Taglioni’s Gran Sport Marianna that had won the Motogiro d’Italia and other long-distance races in the 50s, the Siluro was equipped with a 98 cc engine. It took just a few modifications to Taglioni’s original design, and, on 30 November 1956, the Ducati Siluro was ready to express itself at the Monza speed ring.
In the hands of Santo Ciceri and Mario Carini, the Siluro set forty-six speed world records. One of the most memorable saw it travel 1000 km in six hours with a top speed of 170 km/h.
The Siluro performed so well that it even set new speed records in categories reserved for motorcycles with an engine size of up to 250 cc.
