Description

This 1/12 scale model assembly kit recreates the Superleggera V4 of which only 500 of the full-size motorcycle were produced. The Superleggera V4 is a road-legal version of the Panigale V4 produced by the legendary Italian motorcycle manufacturer, Ducati. This motorcycles cornerstone is in the lightening, facilitated by carbon fiber material in the fairings, chassis and swing arm, and its eye-catching design features the distinctive carbon fiber biplane wings on either side of the front cowl, for aerodynamics. The engine is the Desmosedici Stradale R, a 998cc V4 powerplant with Ducatis Desmodromic valve timing system. The full-size motorcycle also uses hlins suspension and Brembo brake system. In addition, installation of the Akrapovi titanium muffler which is for the racing kit with a dedicated engine part results in a superb power/weight ratio of 1.54hp/ kg.
