Ducati 1198 Testastretta Evoluzione (2011)

Ducati 1198 Testastretta Evoluzione (2011)

The Ducati 1198 Testastretta Evoluzione is a masterclass in engineering, delivering unparalleled performance and handling. Its lightweight 2-1-2 exhaust system and Showa front suspension ensure razor-sharp responsiveness.

At the heart of this superbike lies the potent Testastretta EVOluzione engine, producing an astonishing 97lb-ft (13.4kgm) of torque and a dry weight of just 171kg (377lb). This marriage of power and agility is further enhanced by the introduction of Ducati Traction Control (DTC), which expertly monitors wheel speeds to prevent rear-wheel spin.

But it’s not just about raw power – the 1198 also boasts advanced electronics, including the groundbreaking Ducati Quick Shifter (DQS) and Data Analyzer (DDA). These cutting-edge features enable riders to extract every last fraction of performance from their machine. With its battle-hardened tech and razor-sharp handling, this bike is ready to take on even the most challenging roads with confidence.
