Motorcycle specifications Ducati1198 SP 2011 Supplication and Power


presentation of the 1198 SP 2011
in 2010, the 1198 range included the standard model, the S version with Öhlins suspension, the S Corse in a special series with a special tank and color scheme, and the R Corse model with specifications very close to the SBK factory bike. For 2011, it's simpler: an 1198 for the sporty, an 1198 SP for the big-hearted.
the 1100 Hypermotard had already adopted this designation last year - it would seem that Ducati's sportiest models are now taking up the name. The S version has been rebranded and equipped with the very best: inverted forks and TTX monoshock (big top) from Öhlins, standard shifter (previously only available on the exclusive BMW HP2), aluminum fuel tank from the 1198 S Corse, traction control, DDA data acquisition, anti-dribble clutch, lightened Marchesini rims (1 kilo less each) and a big, powerful twin to put it all to the test. The big Testastretta Evoluzione maintains an impressive 170 horsepower for a machine that weighs no more than 200 kilos in the wet.
now the pinnacle of Ducati's Superbike range, this SP is a little gem; but we won't have the unreal R version, with its 180 hp and crazy price tag, to fantasize about.
