Image of 2009 Ducati Streetfighter
The 2009 Ducati Streetfighter is the unfaired version of the Ducati 1098 superbike. The Streetfighter is powered by the same 1098 cc, 90 degree, L-twin engine developing 155 horsepower @ 9,500 rpm, and 87.5 lb-ft (119 Nm) @ 9,500 rpm. The Desmo, Testastretta Evoluzione engine is fuel injected by Marelli and exhausts through massive diameter pipes into twin stacked mufflers.
The purpose-built Trellis frame, huge fork clamps, and longer swingarm create a chassis geometry special to the Ducati Streetfighter. While the tank and seat shapes leave no doubt as to the Streetfighter's roots, it is the upright and commanding riding position that really starts to shape the character of this ultimate naked. New, minimalistic controls, instrumentation and headlight design leave the front looking clean and aggressive.
The "S" spec Ducati Streetfighter features Ohlins suspension front and rear with lightweight forged Marchesini wheels. Ducati Traction Control and Ducati Data Analysis are fitted as standard to the Ducati Streetfighter S.
The Ducati Streetfighter is available in either red or sophisticated pearl white set against a black frame and subtle graphite grey 10-spoke wheels, the Streetfighter S comes in either red or midnight black with carbon fiber front fender and cambelt covers contrasting superbly against the sophisticated bronze finish of the frame and 5 spoke Y-design wheels.
