It was in the 2017 season when the guys from Revival Cycles unveiled their Ducati Odioso project, an Offroad tricycle born from a 1999 ST4. A hell of a thing that, in addition to having the powerful twin cylinder of the Italian sport-touring company, It stood out above anything else because of its striking color scheme. Now it seems that it is looking for a new home, since its owners have recently decided to put it up for sale on the official Bike Exif website.
Reviewing the history of the Ducati Odioso, we remember that the Revival Cycles team made the decision to use a Ducati ST4 as the essential basis of the project. The idea was to create a Sidecar-cross like those that compete in countries like Australia and New Zealand. Its 996 cc V-twin engine is undoubtedly the most striking element of this preparation. We are talking about a maximum power of 120 hp at 9,000 rpma figure that must be carefully measured once we get behind the controls of the Ducati Odioso.
For the part it was decided to use the tubular chassis of the ST4 adding a sidecar subframe with long-travel suspension. The latter is made up of a KTM 48 mm WP inverted fork and a multi-adjustable Öhlins rear shock absorber. The 17” Warp wheels are shod with Metzler Karoo 3 tires in sizes 130/80/17, front and side, and 170/60/17 on the rear axle.

It is clear that the work behind the Ducati Odioso is worthy of praise. Revival Cycles even promoted an initiative, in association with Alpinestars, to create a t-shirt to match the colorful livery of the striking Offroad tricycle. A limited edition of only 100 units with which both brands celebrated “the motocross era of the late 80s and early 90s, or in this case, sidecar Cross.”
