If you like the streetfighter series from different companies the Ducati won’t fall far from the top of your list. Personally KTM are my preferred bike for this sort of style but this Ducati is hard to resist. This year the engine has gotten even lighter and stronger. It has developed another 5 horsepower into the engine and dropped 11.5 pounds. The crank and flywheel assembly has stepped its game up to match (the same style as) the 848 one. This is a improved burn efficiency from the single spark plug and a higher compression rate in the engine, which is a good explanation for the extra power. This has bumped the power up to a total of 95 horses.
The aesthetics have remained the same for the most part. The body style really hasn’t changed much and the LCD screen has stayed the same as well. But the aesthetics were never poor in opinion. The turn signals are built into the mirrors now which is happening with a lot of the bikes now if they aren’t put in a slick spot in the body. The passenger gets a some nifty grab bars and the pegs are designed to quick release for all of those riders you don’t carry someone or simply like the look of the bike without the pegs, they are easily removed!
Even the base model has an adjustable fork, good brembo brakes, and the rest of the kit like the other Ducatis. If you wish to spend another 2500 then you can get a upgraded kit that will put you in good shape even out on the track. But all this fun doesn’t come cheaply; this bike starts out at 11,995. But you do have Ducati written on the side of your bike as you wheelie and drift around the corners so take what you will!
