NCR MH TT (Mike Hailwood)

8, NCR MH TT (Mike Hailwood)
Price : $ 1,30,000 (Rs 71.38lakh)

When NCR planned to build a tribute bike then it is obvious that both the man and the machine would be special. The MH TT is NCR’S tribute to commemorate the 30th anniversary of legendary racer of Mike Hailwood’s victory at the Isle of Man. The MH TT is a modern replica of the Ducati 900 NCR on which Hailwood recorded his famous win. The donor bike is the Ducati Sport 1000 which has been modified extensively to reduce as much as possible and the super lightweight bike tips the scale at just 136kg. Like its other creations NCR has sought the aid of titanium and carbon fibre to shed the extra flab. The 1,120cc engine pumping out 132PS is nestled in a titanium frame which weighs a mere 5kg. The exhaust and frame of the bike has also been crafted from titanium whereas carbon fibre has been employed on the body panels and wheels. Just 12 MH TT would be built and each bike would loosen your wallet by $ 1,30,000 or Rs 71.38lakh.
