Ducati Superleggera V4: Italy's Ultra-Light Performance Masterpiece

In February 2020 legendary Italian motorcycle maker Ducati wowed the world with the Superleggera V4, an ultra-light high performance bike with a production run of just 500 that was delivered to its lucky owners in a dedicated wooden box, accompanied by a Racing Kit of parts to make it ready for the circuit. The Racing Kit includes a super stylish and high performance Akrapovic exhaust, clutch cover, brake lever guard, fuel cap and more. With the parts fitted, output reaches an eye-popping 234hp and the bike records an astonishing power to weight ratio of 0.65kg/ps, turning the already impressive Superleggera V4 into a honed track machine.

Without the turn signals and number plate stay, the Superleggera V4 transforms into a circuit bike.

The brake lever guard is on the right of the handlebar; on this image you can also see the racing filler cap.

The front cowling fits onto the model without cement, and side cowlings are screw-attached, meaning you can remove them and admire the inner workings.

The clutch is made up of 2 parts for an easier paint job, while the Akrapovic exhaust is of course highly realistic.

Drilled brake discs and Brembo calipers are artfully recreated. Tires are solid molded parts.

The license plate-less seat cowling shows off Ducati's design prowess.

Decals are included for side cowling carbon fiber areas, the screen display, and more. Masking stickers are also included.
