"Ducati 1098" (2007)
The Ducati 1098, introduced in 2007, marked a return to
Ducati's design roots while delivering cutting-edge performance. The
1098 was a direct response to feedback from enthusiasts and racers,
combining the best aspects of Ducati's superbike heritage with modern
technology. Powered by a 1099cc Testastretta Evoluzione L-twin engine,
the 1098 produced 160bhp, making it one of the most powerful
twin-cylinder motorcycles of its time. The bike's design was a homage to
the notorious 916, with its clean lines, underseat exhaust, and minimalist
aesthetic, but it also featured modern touches like a digital dash and a
lighter, stronger chassis. The 1098 was equipped with top-shelf
components, including fully adjustable suspension from Showa (and Öhlins
on the S and R models), Brembo monoblock brakes, and a slipper clutch,
all contributing to its superb handling and braking performance. The
Ducati 1098 was a critical and commercial success, lauded for its blend
of power, agility, and timeless design, and it remains a beloved model
in Ducati's illustrious superbike line-up.
