Description:
Ducati 1098 S Superbike
The Ducati 1098 S is the highest performance Ducati streetbike ever. Boasting status as the lightest L-Twin Superbike in history, it adds world-class components to an already record-breaking design.
Suspension is the highest performance standard. Fully adjustable 43mm Öhlins FG511 forks with low friction Titanium Nitride fork sliders respond effortlessly to every imperfection in the tarmac. Beyond their advanced engineering solutions, one of the most important characteristics of Öhlins forks is their ability to communicate the condition and quality of the tire-to-road contact patch, putting the rider in better control. The front shock is completed by the rear shock, a fully adjustable Öhlins 46PRC with a ride enhancing top-out spring, controlling the single-sided swingarm for outstanding drive, traction and steering precision.
On any sport or race bike, the most effective area to reduce weight is its “unsprung weight”. These are components like tyres, brakes and wheels. Lighter wheels have a lower ‘moment of inertia’ that is beneficial with every direction change and application of the brakes. The 1098 addresses this important area by mounting Marchesini forged and machined wheels, reducing weight by 4 lbs. Weight is also saved by using a carbon fiber front fender.
Ducati Data Analyzer System is standard equipment on the "S", enabling the retrieval and analysis of data collected from track sessions or road trips... and it's compatible with your PC.
And don't forget, Ducati promises 50% less maintenance costs on all its 2007 models.
