Italianiron Classics Supporting Ducati TT & Pantah Racers

At Italianiron Classics let us "Fuel Your Race Passions" is not just a slogan but a commitment, whether you are building a vintage Ducati TT or Pantah, or Ducati F1 racer for competition or as a vintage street bike. We continue to offer a comprehensive, specialty portfolio of Ducati Bevel Drive, TT, Pantah, F1 and Supersport engine, chassis and bodywork kits to all of our customers worldwide. We continue to help restorers and racers with providing them with top quality racing spares and offering painting services when required due to our restoration expertise and build results. At Italianiron.com we have historically maintained a good inventory of vintage OEM Ducati items and we encourage you to peruse our Italianiron.com website and view the numerous refurbished engine components for these venerated, legendary engines. We have sections on the website for engine cases, barrels, heads, transmission gears, engine gears and covers, etc. We are also proud to be factory dealers for Marvic magnesium wheels and SmartCarb flat slide carburetors. What is the most satisfying is that our team continues to be a valued resource for those racers and builders who wish to build the bike of their dreams. 

Shown above is our Ducati TT racer with Monster S2R DS engine and this picture is perhaps the best illustration of the quality racing spares that we have on offer and what technical resources that we have offered to racers and builders as we have both built and raced numerous different Ducati racing machines. We enjoy sharing our enthusiasm and expertise with our customers in addition to offering race quality newly manufactured or OEM spares in inventory. There is such a large range of cost effective, build opportunities to consider whether you wish to race or ride 350's, 500's, 750's or larger capacity machines in different race classifications, track days or spirited street riding. We have our chrome-moly Ducati TT race frames, TT & F1 bodywork kits, K Tech racing rear shocks, billet aluminum chassis components from rear sets to clip-on's and in addition to stainless steel 2:1 race or street exhaust systems. We have race quality components that are available for the racer or street rider. Our offerings have all come from the generosity of Tony Rutter who allowed us historically to make copies of his Ducati Pantah and Ducati TT racers when the team of Tony Rutter and Pat Slinn were challenging the best in the world and achieving their 4 Formula 2 World Championships.

We are also very excited at the enthusiasm for the early belt driven Ducati Pantah engines that evolved into the larger capacity Ducati 750 F1's and Ducati 900 Supersports such as the Pantah racer we saw when we visited Ducati Firenze. Despite Ducati race engineering maestro Pat Slinn originally falling in love with the Ducati Bevel Drive Supersport, he has shared that the Taglioni penned Ducati Pantah engine is one of his all time favorite engines. Pat's opinion comes naturally from his race engineering expertise. The Ducati Pantah engine is so light in comparison to its Bevel Drive "big brother" but it has significant power out-put. In my opinion, the Ducati Pantah engine is that most significant example of successfully achieving the maximum in power to weight ratios, at the time of its inception, and is a favorite of vintage Ducati motorcycle racers to this day. With an open or near open megaphone, the exhaust note is very similar, in my opinion, to the "thundering" exhaust note of a big Ducati bevel drive "L" twin engine. We have numerous OEM Ducati Pantah components in our inventory in addition to supporting these light but fierce racers with upgraded, modern manufactured racing components to assist any racer, specialty bike builder, or street rider. We are also very excited with our newly manufactured "fully floating" 280 mm front brake rotor that was all designed in-house and our 320 mm front brake rotor.

We are also having great fun working on Norton Manx and Norton Commando & Dominator twin cylinder racers which is where I initially "cut my teeth" participating in period racing such as BOTT. In addition to our product portfolio for Ducati TT and other Ducati racers, we are also excited to support enthusiasts for Norton Manx and Norton Twin racers through Molnar Manx and BritIron Classics. Check out our Norvil fairings & windscreen offerings. Please review the numerous newly manufactured TT, Ducati F1 and Norton Commando items such as our aluminum fuel tanks, for example, and listed on my Italianiron.com website. British marques are listed on the BritIron or Molnar Manx section of the website. As a result of our offerings, it is our hope to help you to become immersed in the history, the passion and the early racing technology of these amazing machines. Let us "Fuel Your Race Passions" to keep the sport of Vintage Motorcycle Racing alive and well!
