2018 was a momentous year in Ducati’s history – after years of producing V-Twin superbikes, the Italian marque released an all-new lineup centered around a 1,103cc V4 producing (at minimum) 211 horsepower and 91 lb-ft of torque.
The base model was impressive in its own right, but an additional six grand bought you the “S” model, which came with upgrades such as Marchesini forged aluminum wheels, Öhlins electronic suspension — consisting of NIX30 forks, a TTX36 shock, and a steering damper — minor cosmetic tweaks, and a seven pound reduction to bring curb weight down to 430 pounds.
By the time 2022 ended, it had become the most successful race year in Ducati Corse history — Francesco Bagnaia took the MotoGP championship and Alvaro Bautista did the same with WorldSBK. Then they both did it again for 2023! This bike was inspired by Ducati’s most exclusive livery that they utilized in the 2023 season – the “Giallo Ducati” that was adorned on the Ducati Lenovo team’s bike for the Misano GP. Ducati made just 263 examples.
While the V4 S is an impressive bike in its own right, this limited edition got a tremendous amount of differentiating features per Ducati:
Billet aluminum top triple clamp with bike name and number
Fuel tank personally signed by the rider
Single seat configuration, rider seat with dedicated material and rider logo
Dedicated dashboard animation at key-on
Dedicated ignition key with bike number on aluminum insert
Racing plexiglass
Akrapovič homologated silencer (it contributes to reduce the weight by 4.4 lbs (2kg)), exhaust heat shield in carbon fiber.
STM-EVO SBK 9-discs dry clutch
Adjustable rider foot-pegs in billet aluminum by Rizoma with carbon fiber heel guards
Brembo Stylema R calipers
Brembo MCS master cylinder with remote adjuster, machined brake and clutch levers
Rear mudguard in carbon fiber
Swinging arm cover in carbon fiber and titanium
Carbon fiber generator protection cover
GPS module
There was also a “race box” with “additional equipment for racetrack use“:
Carbon fiber front brakes cooling air ducts
Carbon fiber open clutch cover
License plate holder removing kit
Billet aluminum mirror removing kit
Billet aluminum racing fuel tank cap
