Track Weapon - Ducshop 848 1098 1198 Race Bike


Picked up this weapon from Connecticut this weekend, which apparently has been called "the nicest 848 in the USA." Dynoed at 158hp, this Ducati 848 actually houses a 1098 engine, reinforced with 1198 rods and bearings by the legendary Ducshop in Marietta, Georgia.
 In addition to Termignoni cans,
 this track-day weapon sports Ohlins suspension, both front and rear, as well as an Ohlins steering dampener sitting behind a custom adjustable triple clamp.
 Woodcraft engine and clutch covers protect the engine block
a Ducabike slipper clutch, 
and Woodcraft rearsets and hand guards protect me and the bike in a crash.
 The engine was built with a programmable MicroTech ECU,
 and came with spare wheels, a tank and two sets of Armor Bodies body work,
 and numerous other spares.
 There is nearly nothing I can do with this bike,
 except maybe give it a wash, maybe peel off some of the vinyl,
and wait until track season.
