The 848EVO Corse
Unique Version uses identical DTC and DQS ideas as the new 1199
Panigale. DTC screens front side and back rim connections to recognize
back wheel-spin under speed and digitally lowers website energy to
optimize traction efficiency. DQS allows the reduce to remain open when
changing-up through the gear box, helping to save vital parts of a
second in the search of quicker laptimes. The 848EVO Corse Unique Version comes out in red, dark-colored and light Ducati Corse livery with red Trellis shape and dark-colored tires.

Trellis frame - Developed in
collaboration with Ducati Corse, the lightweight tubular frame of 34 mm
has main section tubes with a thickness of 1.5 mm. The result is a
very rigid construction that remains one of the solutions clearer
picture of Ducati history. Through decades of career and development,
Ducati has shown that innovative chassis engineering and evolutionary
progress under win races. The tubular chassis tube, which is used in
every Ducati motorcycle is a design element of the firm. This unique
Ducati frame is light thanks to its rigid and beautiful ingenious
Trellis design and use of high ALS 450 tubing. Each tube is mitered and
welded micro-fusion complex in a triangular pattern and our amazingly
strong L-Twin engine cases are functional "strength member" of the
chassis.

Aerodynamics Superbike -
Carefully designed for aerodynamic efficiency and clean lines of the
chassis hugs the body allows the pilot to mix Superbikes effortlessly
into position. The race developed fairing design ensures perfect
integration with the cooling system of an efficient flow of advanced
radiator, coolant high surface area support light assemblies, high flow
electric fan and oil cooler. Aerodynamic air ducts located just below
the headlamps are calculated with sufficient accuracy to provide air to
the air box pressure. The lightweight bodywork contributes
considerably to overall performance by reducing weight, protecting the
Testastretta Evoluzione engine's power and help the rider to
effortlessly 'tuck in' from the wind stream and reduce the resistance
of a linear track maximum speeds.

Magnesium for the sub-frame -
Preparation of a magnesium front subframe emphasizes attention to
detail in weight reduction in the range of Ducati Superbike. Its
construction provides secure support for the headlamp, instruments and
fairing, and the weight saving around this high position, forward
contributes significantly to the overall "feel" and control of the
machine.

Lighting - The horizontal twin
headlamps, a signature Ducati style of the iconic 916, which was
upgraded with the latest lighting technology. Two units polyellipsoidal
light the way with a powerful beam while maintaining an aggressive
look to the front of the machine in pure Ducati Superbike tradition.
The backlight has a specially designed LED strips enhanced by a high
diffusion lens shaped into the sleek lines of the tail. The same LEDs
are intensified for brake lights. The directional indicators also use
the latest LED technology for lighting. The frontal indicators are
beautifully integrated into the mirrors.

backlight LED, presents rpm and speed, with the first displayed in a
progressive bar graph. Optionally, the engine speed and the speed is
shown in numerical values. Also shown are the lap times, DTC level
selected (if activated on 1198) when the air temperature, coolant
temperature, battery voltage, two trips and a trip that starts
automatically when the system fuel is in standby mode. Warning lights
illuminate to turn signals, neutral, high beam, rev-limit, low oil
pressure, fuel reserve, DTC intervention (if activated on 1198 S, 1198
and 1198 SR Corse Corse) and maintenance scheduled shall be prohibited.

Accessible from the left panel
and displayed on the digital instrumentation, the system offers a
choice of eight profiles, each programmed with a tolerance of wheel
spin adapted to progressive levels of riding skill assigned one to
eight. While level eight administers a confidence-building, high degree
of interaction of the system by activating the least amount of wheel
spin, level one offers a much higher tolerance and much less
intervention for highly competent riders.
