A MODEL OF PERFORMANCE AND STYLE
The press has called the Ducati 999 the best-ever twin cylinder engine (MotorCycle News, the leading European motorcycle magazine). A peek under the fairing shows just how advanced this motorcycle is and the design focuses on rider ergonomics, making maintenance simpler by reducing overall complexity and, above all, offering top-notch performance.
The new 999 has already been defined as "simply the best V-twin".
It is innovative enough to stand apart from the competition. It is born to race. It is born to win.
The world's most exclusive, most successful twin has donned new clothing. The new 999 is closer than ever in looks to the bikes that dominate so many SBK championships worldwide. And its characteristic tubular trellis frame now embraces an engine that was the exclusive reserve of the S series in 2004. This means that the 124 HP 999 of last year now produces an incredible 140 HP. The 999 is also lighter and boasts a new fairing that is more aerodynamic, as well as a new race-inspired swing arm that is derived directly from Ducati's legendary racing machines. Ducati's answer to the growing demand for ever more powerful, ever more race-inspired sports bikes has hit this already tumultuous market segment like a bombshell. Ever since it was introduced two years ago, the 999 has inspired exponential growth in the Superbike scene and proved a fantastic success on the world's racing circuits. In these last two years the 999 has been continuously updated with sophisticated technical solutions that have kept it constantly in front of the competition.
Pumping out 140 hp at 9,750 rpm and 11.1 kgm (80.3 lb-ft) of torque at 8,000 rpm with a smoothness that makes riding sheer pleasure this bike is certain to blow your mind.
The MAD Ride Casey Stoner Replica is a World First Casey Stoner Ducati Street bike and comes with the following specs as procured by MAD Inc. It IS the only one of its kind in the world and it is a true collectors item.
* Custom Paint Job by Vitech Refinishing, who also painted last years #27 Team LCR Honda. This years stickers were very kindly donated by Stripemaster.
* CRG levers
* Termignoni Exhaust Pipes
* Bridgestone Tyres
* Custom Brake fluid reservoir cap, custom race style oil cap
* We are working tirelessly to procure as many aftermarket race parts (street legal of course) for this bike, even though it doesn’t really need it (being a Ducati after all!) rest assured we will continue to look and ask for donations that will only improve this machine.
Special thanks goes out to Fastgir1 without whom this replica would not have happened, she is the person who sourced the entire prize. Well done Colleen! (round of applause!)
