Ducati Pantah - Pantah 650SL and TT1 750 Racer

Pantah 650SL and TT1 750 Racer

In 1983 the 650SL came about because of the need to homologate the TT1 750 racer’s 61.5 mm stroke. Instead of producing a production 750, the 650SL was born with 82 mm bore and the required 61.5 mm stroke. bodywork is virtually identical to the 600 but was painted red and yellow, had a different instrument layout and some other minor changes, but it had more torque, and that was a big improvement and was considered by many as THE pantah. The 650SL produced 63 hp at 8,500 rpm.
