The Ducati Streetfighter

Ducati has released a teaser for the new bike on it's site HERE, and further details on the bike will be coming soon I'm sure.

What we do know is that the bike will come in two differnt models, the regular Streetfighter and the S version. Both will come with a water-cooled 1099cc V-Twin engine that will produce 155 horsepower and 87.5 lb-ft of torque. The S model will be the more upscale version, and is rumored to come with Öhlins suspension upgrades and Marchesini forged aluminum wheels; bronze-painted frame, wheels and swingarm; carbon fiber bits and electronics such as standard traction control and data acquisition.

The base model will probably start out in the mid-teens price wise, but nothing solid has been announced yet. It's currently scheduled to be released sometime in the Spring of 2009.
