Radical Ducati Matador

.  

Based around the Ducati 1198 Superbike lump, and featuring all the usual Radical Ducati parts, the Radical Ducati Matador is not only typical of the Spanish firm’s gritty design practice, but also makes us nostalgic for the now deceased Ducati Streetfighter 1098 platform, which hit upon the same raw vein during its brief time in Ducati’s lineup.

The signature minimalist carbon fiber RAD solo tail section and RAD fuel tank are included in the Matador’s design, and we especially like that Pepo and Reyes have massaged some love into the 1198 engine, with a lightened flywheel and ported heads being part of the build — though no word is given on available power.

Still at 304 lbs, this machine should positively kill it at your local track day. Öhlins suspension, Brembo brakes, an EVR slipper clutch, and a RAD designed exhaust pipe complete the go-fast parts.
