Some of the most sought after Ducati models are the striking
'Tricolore' versions. Models like the F1 750, 851 and more recently the 1098
Tricolore, produced in limited quantities, represented the best-of-the-best
and now enjoy legendary status.
For 2008, Ducati will produce a Special Edition S4R S in the bold
Tricolore colour scheme. True to its legacy, the S4R S Tricolore epitomizes
the essential soul of Ducati. Its Italian design heritage is expressed by
the colours of the Italian flag and its sporting heart could not be better
represented than by the racing technology and absolute racing performance it
embraces.
The Monster S4RS Tricolore - true to its name - the flagship of the
Monster family.
THE "MONSTER SUPERBIKE"
The liquid-cooled, 4-valve per cylinder, 998 Testastretta L-Twin engine
features a 100mm bore and short stroke of 63.5mm to limit average piston
speed and allow increased rpm. The result is a staggering 130hp and 76.6
lb-ft of brute torque.
Testastretta technology allows a reduced angle between the intake and
exhaust valves resulting in a clean, compact combustion chamber that is
highly efficient. The optimised combustion environment and linear flame
front inside the specially designed heads, combined with cutting-edge
electronic engine control technology, guarantees precise and optimal
combustion throughout the rev range.
The chassis components are unparalleled. Fully adjustable Öhlins suspension
front and rear complemented by super lightweight Y-shaped 5-spoke wheels
ensure outstanding handling, while 320mm Brembo twin discs on the front have
radial-mounted calipers with four pistons and four pads per caliper to
provide incredible race-worthy stopping power.
And to make this Monster look and feel even more exciting, ultra-light
carbon fibre has been employed for the silencer cover, exhaust heat guard,
front mudguard, radiator covers and cam belt covers.
