One for the Ladyboys - 2012 Ducati 848 Streetfighter spied

There will be quite a few sold in Singapore then

Doesn't a stock 848 motor produce more power than a superduke?

Stock 848 puts out 115 horses so perhaps more than a std 07 Superduke but not enough in it to matter

Of course that's also depending on whether or not they stroked the motor for torque on this new one, did they stroke the bigger streetfighter or did they just chuck the engine from the sportsbike straight in ?

Edit: Found another dyno tested figure of 119 and 121 with cans

Ducatis marketing figures were 134

i would have thought it would be a pretty sweet light bike , not a fan of ducatis myself but them 848's get decent reviews

That plastic low down makes it look a lot like a Super Duke - now there's an irony

I'm sure it's very nice to ride, and goes like stink...



But it looks pretty uninspiring, if not downright fugly...

Modern bike designs are getting very boring and interchageable - like modern cars. They all look the fooking same.

Well it just so happens I went head to head with an 848 on saturday .. On an all out drag race despite me making a good couple meters on him at the launch and clutchless shifting my 05 pretty much standard duke as hard as I could .. Once I hit about 70 ish the areodynamics cam into play and he caught me and went past . I did manage to get back infront at the first roundabout though
