The Ducati Sebring is a 340 cc (21 cu in) single cylinder bevel drive SOHC motorcycle produced by the Italian manufacturer Ducati from 1965 to 1968. At the time of its introduction it was the largest capacity Ducati machine. Production of the original model ended in 1967 when the 'wide case' Mark 3 was introduced,[4] although just over 200 Sebrings were made in 1968 with the 'wide case' engine.[5] Total production was around 3,500 machines.[6]
