This year, Ducati turns 100 years old. It won’t let you forget it, either.
The “A Century Made of Seconds” campaign rolled out last October. The Superleggera V4 Centenario evoked the same celebratory vibes in late March. World Ducati Week 2026 is branded as the Centenary Edition. The Ducati 100 logo is plastered across the OEM’s website.
Now, Ducati is going the whole nine yards, revealing its Collezione 100, a series of limited-edition motorcycles composed of 10 different models in 10 unique liveries. All of which Ducati limits to 100 units each.
All 1,000 Collezione 100 units arrive with a certificate of authenticity, a dedicated rear stand, a motorcycle cover, and signed art prints. The V4 models — which include the Panigale V4 S 100, Streetfighter V4 S 100, XDiavel V4 100, Diavel V4 RS 100, and Multistrada V4 RS 100 — will be shipped in a dedicated crate. Ducati photo.
For those not in the know, Ducati started out as a radio components manufacturer. It didn’t begin producing engines until the 1950s. Many of the brand's formative years occurred during the ‘60s and ‘70s. That explains why the vast majority of the Collezione 100 liveries hail from that period.
Ducati has yet to announce the pricing or release dates for the 10 models within its Collezione 100. Considering the limited number of units offered globally, high MSRPs are to be expected.
Ducati isn’t reluctant to call back to its Imola 200-winning 750 Imola Desmo. It did so for the 1973 750 Super Sport Desmo. The same treatment was applied to the 2006 Paul Smart 1000 SportClassic. The Scrambler-based Formula 73 was its most recent application, but that almost pales in comparison to the Panigale V4 S 100. From the flake-heavy paint to the period-correct number graphic, the legendary livery shines in all its glittering glory on the modern sport bike. Ducati photo.
Before Franco Uncini captured the 1982 500 cc Grand Prix title, he captured the Italian Championship in 1975. He did so aboard a Ducati 750 Super Sport Desmo. The Panigale V2 S 100 bears the same yellow paint scheme as that championship-winning bike, complete with brown and burgundy accents so indicative of the era. Ducati photo.
Ducati sees the 1979 900 Sport Desmo Darmah as “a Streetfighter before its time.” It’s only fitting that the Streetfighter V4 S 100 sports the same black-and-gold livery. No detail is spared, either. The Giugiaro logo, the gold wheels, even the tiger head graphic are all here. Ducati photo.
Many recognize the Monster S4Rs as the pinnacle of purity and simplicity within the Monster line. Ducati outfitted the Monster 100 in the 2008 Monster S4Rs Tricolore livery for that very reason. Unfortunately, the current-gen Monster can’t replicate its ancestor’s gold trellis frame, but the tri-colored tank and champagne wheels will have to suffice. Ducati photo.
Ducati earned its first production-based race victory on U.S. soil with Cook Neilson’s win at Daytona in 1977. The bike he achieved that feat on was the 750 Super Sport. Also known as the “California Hot Rod,” A.K.A “Old Blue,” the 750 Super Sport hardly shares the same proportions as the XDiavel V4 100, but its blue/silver color scheme and gold wheels look quite handsome on the power cruiser.

Mike Hailwood did the improbable when he piloted a Ducati 900 NCR TT1 to an Isle of Man TT victory in 1978. Ducati quickly capitalized on the accomplishment, releasing the 900 Replica in 1979. You know the bike. You know the colors. The red, the green, the white stripes. Here the effect is translated onto the Diavel V4 RS 100. Ducati photo.
The 500 SL Pantah was the first Ducati to feature a trellis frame. That’s not a quality it shares with the Multistrada V4 RS 100. What it does share with the performance-minded ADV is its livery. Comprised of an icy blue base, red/blue graphics, and the obligatory gold wheels, the treatment is still a head-turner all these years later. Ducati photo.
Like the Monster, Ducati’s Scrambler can reference models in its own family tree. The Scrambler 100 does so by donning the livery found on the 1962 250 Scrambler. From its blue frame to its silver spoked wheels, from its silver/blue tank to its retro Ducati logo, the Scrambler 100 largely delivers on the look originated by the 250 Scrambler. Ducati photo.
Ducati’s 860 Desmo won the 24 Horas de Montjuïc endurance race in 1973 and 1975. That racing prototype inspired the Hypermotard V2 SP 100. The flat silver and gloss red paint take center stage here, but details like the Giugiaro logo and racing number add some refinement to the hooligan machine. Ducati photo.
Last of the bunch, the DesertX 100 does its own rendition of the 1981 Pantah “Ice,” a bike that was frequently used to entertain crowds at ice races. The bright yellow base and blue gradient stripes are just as fun-loving on the DesertX, but Ducati goes one step further, equipping the ADV with a high-mounted mudguard to replicate the Pantah’s oversized fenders.
