Report: Ducati sales up 68% in Q1

Ducati announced that its sales for the first quarter of 2011 outstripped last year by some 68 percent after three months of growth.

The sales growth so far has been nice, but Ducati doesn't see them slowing for the rest of 2011, particularly with the Diavel due to hit showrooms at the end of March. With the help of updated models like the Monster 1100EVO and the Multistrada 1200S Pikes Peak Edition, maintaining those stellar sales numbers shouldn't be an issue, and puts Ducati well on its way to reclaiming the numbers it enjoyed before the economic nose dive.
