Lacey Engineering was established in 1998 by Nigel Lacey. Previously Nigel already had a long involvement with the 'Ducati Single', through road racing and his own road Ducati Mk 3 Single. Racing a Ducati Sebring based racer he won championships and obtained podium positions at international level. Racing fuelled his interest and love for the bevel single. Since the start of Lacey Engineering his passion has led to much development of the 'Ducati Single'. This passion has placed these humble road based machines amongst the top in the Classic Racing world . Considerable success has been achieved by customers and friends, using engines built and developed by Lacey Engineering.

The results speak for themselves and if you are interested in more details, check the Race Results page. Nigel has been involved in motorcycles in many disciplines since the early eighties. It is however his engineering background that holds the secret behind Lacey Engineering. Before Lacey Engineering began, Nigel worked in the Nuclear Industry for 17 years. Starting with a traditional engineering apprenticeship, his career touched on a vast array of types of engineering skills. Much of the time was spent in laboratories and experimental facilities as a Research Technician.

The combination of the skills from motorcycling and experimental engineering, have proved a recipe for success. Nigel is a practical engineer, working from intuition and feet on the ground experience, testing and experimentation. He claims not to know all the answers, as nobody does, however no stone is ever left unturned in the quest for knowledge and achievement that fuels the passion. 2008 - New Website. The introduction of this website marked a significant change in the direction of the business. The start of the online shop enabled Lacey Engineering to sell many of the parts which had been specifically developed to enhance the original machine's performance and reliability.
