Default The new Ducati Streetfighter

One of the most eagerly awaited motorcycles of the year. Photoshopped images have been doing the rounds for quite some time but this is the real thing. Though the official unveiling is later in the evening according to the ducati website, hell for leather magazine has managed to get their hands on specs and images of this gorgeous new italian masterpiece.

The following is from their website :-

Thanks to a huge leak we can exclusively reveal official information on and images of the new Ducati Streetfighter and Ducati Streetfighter S. Both models share the same 155bhp, 87.5lb/ft 1099cc v-twin and even though the S gains lighter 5-spoke Marchesini forged aluminum wheels and Öhlins suspension front and back we think it's the standard traction control and data acquisition that will really set the S model apart.







1098 who? and monster what?....

Thumbs up

Now THIS is a monster...I was expecting something exceptional from Ducati ...and they didnt disappoint..Looks edgy and futuristic and at that same time exudes that raw, agression..I LOVE IT!!

If the Dark Knight were to ride a street bike..THIS would be it..what a steed this would be..wow!


IMO the only sore point are those outlandish RVms..they look like rabbit/donkey ears..

Funny looking RVM's, and the front headlight looks sort of like the naked Honda CB1000R
