The New Team Red.
« on: May 07, 2010, 06:56:17 pm »


If looks could sell............ 8)

All a rumour I think but why not? The technology would be half a Vtwin SuperBike. If desmo makes sense for a multi it must make more sense for a single :).

Does the seat need to go all the way to handlebars,OUCH, great looking cycle though.
By the way, Ducati just recently won their first Flat Track meeting in the US.
Tomorrow the world.

The Supermono was a bit of a (for the time) technical tour de force, IIRC it was Massimo Bordi who thought of the idea to use the now redundant crank pin to attach a small 'conrod' to it for use as a balance shaft, when the rear cylinder was lopped off. Which saved a costly redesign of  the crankcases, and nullified the single's inherent balance and vibration issues. They rev to unheard of rpm for a 4T single. Sir Al Cathcart raced one at Bathurst they fetch big bucks now.

Ducati breaks 17 year Harley Davidson winning streak with US Grand National Flat Track victory. Maybe Duke will be tempted back into the dirt bike scene :).
