Ducati file

The 1098 replaced the 999 as Ducati's flagship road superbike for 2007, with the new 1099 cc Testastretta Evoluzione twin making 160 hp. It has a trellis frame, single-sided swingarm, Brembo Monobloc brakes and Showa suspension, and marked a return to sharp, compact styling. It was widely praised and won several bike-of-the-year awards.
