It's not often you meet an enthusiast and collector who's willing to share with the world! Many great thanks to Jack.

A beautiful, wonderful collection and that compliment comes from a Ducati (959) owner whose 1st bike was.a Ducati Monza 250 in 1964 and who bought the 959 Panigale last year as a 70th birthday present to myself. Yes, still willing to throw a leg over a superbike.

Lovely collection, I can only wish to be that fortunate; thanks for the tour. That said, you broke my heart when you called the 999 "the dog of the range" and I don't say that because the 999 is the total extent of my Ducati collection, but because she is motorcycle which stands alone peerless in both style and performance. Her beauty runs deep, well past the "art-decoesque: fairings that allow her to slip seamlessly thru time and space. Her frame is strong, yet forgiving; and her power comes from her thoroughbred heart. And don't let her sleek lines and curving tail fool you; she is a champion; WSBK winner 2003, 2004, and 2006; making her the single winningest Ducati model ever. So please, don't call my sexy Italian redhead a dog, she's pure Fox

Dear Jack, Just stumbled across your post and a pleasure to see you. You always were a big man. I remember you passing me on the outside of clearways at Brands back in the 80's. You were riding an Exup1000 'shoe horned' into a 750 frame if my memory serves me right. I crashed several laps later. Lovely selection of bikes. I have a smaller collection of Laverdas, bevels and a few 70's 'rice burners'. Take care and warm wishes William Massey

Yall butthurt cause he is able to amass this collection. Its his bikes and he can do whatever he wants to do. Thanks for sharing your collection.

"never been started" is this guy out of his mind?

Jaw dropping collection, Thank you so much for sharing

Some like to ride and some like to look. Room in the planet for both. Thx for protecting these for the future generations :)

Respect! It's a beautiful collection, congratulations. Greetings from Hungary!

WOW!!!!! I'm red with envy. Ahem the 999 and 749 are not dogs and are now becoming rightly so, very collectable.

Wow what a bunch of miserable jealous people responding to this, lovely collection. I think it is fantastic

I do appreciate a collection and the preservation of bikes but I must say. As a owner of a Ducati 750 Sport, 89 model. Nothing beats the enjoyment of riding the bike. Meeting people who share the same passion as yourself. Getting smiles and thumbs up wherever you go. It becomes more of a shared experience when the bike gets used and I am amazed by all the different people you will meet when riding a Ducati. You or no one else will share that common joy when a motorcycle is stored.

Omg what a collection .. and everyone has its story ... I have a single 916 bp bought her new in 1997 & we are still in love .. gotta agree with you 999 thx you for sharing enjoyed every second of it ..

I love you Ducati collection and the Honda at the end. Also I love the classic 80s and 90s style of the bikes. You are one lucky man. Every man never grows out of his toys. :-)

Fantastic collection you have there 👍. It's nice to see someone really taking proper care of those bikes.

2:50 This is no dog, these 999 bikes, particularly the 999S (the R is still out of my reach), are the bee's knees in my books; yes 'I love the form of it' too. Sure they are different but isn't that how special things in life are meant to be, unique?

The MHR homologation bikes were the first 200 from 1979 they came with a certificate and had two separate seats, a single seater and a dual seat and a rubber strap holding the battery, I had one for 5 years and ran it as my daily driver, I've still got the numbered certificate even though I sold the bike in 1985. That's an immaculate MHR but it's nothing to do with the homologation bikes.

Thanks for the tour real nice collection and I would agree that the SP3 and 4 have to be my favorite Ducati's One Day

wow! this is excellent! love seeing these great bikes!

Wow, amazing collection. Green with envy.

2015 Ducati Monster 821 here. I tip my hat at your collection.

A fantastic video, and so well presented. This collection is wonderful, stunning bikes, and in all the right ways I am green with envy. I think the 996R and the 900SS 1975 are the two best looking bikes ever made, oh and the Egli Vincent CR by Godet. Great collection, all the very best in the future with your collection, its a real credit to you, and a true reflection of your passion. I have a Vee Two Imola on order, im sure you would love one yourself.

All of these motorcycles are beautiful.

You are hilarious, Mad Jack! I have just one 2006 Monster 800. Bravo! Good for you to preserve untouched units!

How did I miss this.. Absolutely stunning! I had an original ‘94 916 Strada back in the early 00s.. Currently only have an RRX Fireblade and Aprilia RSV Factory.. But if I could, I would love to add an 888 SP5.. Appreciate you sharing, what a collection..

Cool history. Relaxing vid

Great tour thanks 👍

Very jealous stunning collection of beautiful bikes amazing

Why buy a painting when you can sit on your art in your kitchen. You Sir, are a legend.

The best Ducati collection I ever seen!!!

really lovely collection here, mate! great taste in machinery!

beautiful collection, next Supersport S YOU WILL LOVE IT!

Complimenti! Davvero un bellissimo garage 👍😉👏👏

A very great Collection!

You sir,are a man with class..👏🇬🇧

I’ve got a collector bike Thats never been ridden. I do start it at times, because I assumed it would keep seals and stuff good. The bikes u haven’t started do you have issues like that with them? Also what do you do if anything to them. Thanks.

Excellent video and collection! Obviously enjoy them, that's what it's all about!

got a 2004 749s and an 2015 899 love them both, but would love to have this collection.

Amazing!!👍🏻 Thanks for sharing.

Jezz what a great collection! I own a 1997 916 and a 2008 1098r and I try to ride them as much as I can. He has to have help riding all of those great Duc's! And I can attest to his statement about the 1098r being an absolute beast. Not really a fair comparison to the 916 of course. I enjoy riding the 916 more because at least I can give it full throttle in 1 2nd and 3rd on the street:) That 996r is the best to me. Had the privilege to see one at Pro Italia when I lived in Cali in 2000. As mentioned below not sure if my 1098r has 200hp but its fucking fast! Feels like it has twice as much hp as my 916 but I believe its more of a torque hit and less weight than hp its fucking pulling hard at 4500rpm like crazy lifting the front end in 3rd at 7500 rpm. Then again I'm old now and a young gun I'm sure will not feel the same. Anyway, I hope he gets outs and rides all of them, fast!

I live in a council flat with my collection of old newspapers and beer cans.Bugger.

Amazing beautiful bikes

in fact i have another one in the kitchen i will show you had me in tears

Such a beautiful collection :) selling my S4R soon to buy a 999R

Wonderful collection of reds!! Now it's time for a Panigale!!

Nice Collection

Beautiful collection, every ducatista's dream

Great, great vid man. Love it! I do ride my 888 once in a while :-)

What a great video and great taste in bikes, my favourite must be the desmoscedici but there all beutiful.

Awsome collection, my god! cheers

beautiful ducati collection, especially ducati 1098

That's the garage of my dreams right there!

Jack thanks for the guided tour, cant match your collection but bikes in the house is the future, a drum brake 3 1/2 Morini Sport in the bedroom (a bugger to get up the stairs) totally see where your coming from 996R in the kitchen, beauty is in the eye of the beholder, bikes are art.

not jealous at all... beautiful collection mate!

Mint collection

These bikes are the crown jewels of the Ducati range, I too collected the R versions of three - 999, 1098 and the D16 although here in Australia they can be hard to find, he`s right when he calls the 1098 R and D16 RR way too fast for the road, but that can be said about all big Dukes..

I love Ducati. Great collection but some bikes never been started.... !! It's sad !

u are obviously a madman!... (complimentary). How do such pursuits manage to draw such attention to detail without pissing the wife off; or sacrificing the business - to the point that you are no longer able to afford such collection!..

GREAT indeed !

Nice Jack you have excellent taste in motorcycles .

Love the DUC collection😁

Hey dog of the range . Just bought my dream 999s fila rep..😀 I love it more over a 916.. beautiful collection and thank you for sharing .. ps demo is my fav 😍😍😍

wow! so great to see Jack, just a fantastic collection and great to see you get them out on the road....but I have always thought the 999 is a superb bike, can't see why people dont like it??

Wow that is a stunning collection, i own a mh900e...also a bike to be yealous about,

Never been started? How can you resist?

🥺🥺🥺🥺 Impressive ! Mr Gratton my congratulations

Would love to see his collecting in 2022

Terrific … and very red!

Great collection, really jealous well done

Dope collection. One day i'll have mine too, but all ducati monsters

everything is the most beautiful thing

I have a 916 strada, with some add ons for already 11 years, and i will never sell or or want to buy any other model ever in my life. I dreamt about it in the nineties and bought it in 2000s

If it hasn’t been started it’s just Art ! You Criminal ! Ducati’s are made to ride … I hope you get that Cub out regularly !

At 06:11 is it a broken r/l indicator ? Am i wrong ?

First off, a beautiful collection! But as much as I hate to do so, I have to correct. Carl Fogarty never won the World Superbike title on an 888, nor did he win the title in 1991. His first title was in 1994 on the 916 which he backed up on in 1995. I'll put that down to nerves or being on camera etc.

Great taste in cars and bikes.

Gorgeous bikes, Ive got a Multistrada 1200 S but thats the extent of my collection lol.

excelente!!

Fantastic bit of kit Tosser

Yeah, very much like my collection, except mine are mostly Hondas (except for the Velocette, two Bultacos, and a CCM BMW hybrid), plus none are rare, all need some level of restoration, and they’re worth a bit less. 🧐😎😜 Thank you for sharing

What does on do for a living to afford all of this?

Beautiful collection. I'd be worried about a break in or the likes. They're in plain sight and don't look overly secure. Bloody awesome though!

where are the Nortons, Triumphs ? very cooool collection

The 999 has aged well with time. It was a stark change after the glorious 916 era, but man they can design a bike

I don't know about people's choice but for me 999R is NR:1 in all motorcycle history , it was and still my Dream Machine . I never had a real motorcycle :) (apart of few 125cc - 250cc Minsk, IJ Planeta 5, Jawa 250 from USSR) but in my eyes the most gorgeous in the world is DUCATI 999R !

My 2005 999R has 36000 miles on it and a fresh top end. Where have I gone wrong?

mint condition damn...lucky man

Excellent collection Mr. Gratton! Surprised not to see a single single*! (*witty pun intended) Also missing, not to create a gorge, because I don't have one in my meagre collection yet, but I'm extremely fond of the Senna 916. Did you not want one? (ps - you're giving me anxiety by keeping your trophies above your bikes without being enclosed in a glass case! Please tell me you plan to rectify that. Especially with the little curious one starting to climb bikes.)

Back again in 2019 to marvel at this collection 👍🏻 I’ve just sold my last Ducati 😩 but have a wonderful private plate for sale: V2 FAN 🤩 Anyone?

nice collection of arts, my dream a beautiful hypermotard but ..................

No 998r?

FYI, Carl Fogerty won the world championship in 1994 and 1995, not 1991. The 1991 and 1992 world championships were won by Doug Polen.

What a sweet toy collection.......

Legend

Old bevel Ducatis laid down the template for their current success. You can't beat the sound of shrieking Dell'ortos and barking Contis. Oh ,and no rattling dry clutch,sounds like my gran's old mangle. Keep riding them hard and fast!

crazy cool collection :(

Being rich must be fun 😄 I would also stuff my house with bikes, good taste there 😎

That se5's a Tigermoth :)... knows his dukes though, fantastic collection and a better looking investment you'll be hard pressed to find.

916 and rc30 Honda are fun just to look at.

very proud man and should be , a wonderful collection , save me the 916SPS please
