After the polarizing style of the 999’s vertically-stacked headlights, Ducati went back to the single-sided swingarm, under-tail exhaust and side by side eyes made famous on the 916. This time, however, such features boasted a modern twist courtesy of Giandrea Fabbro. All of this took shape in the form of the range-topping 1098, a bike that Cycle World stated “isn’t just an improvement, it’s a revelation.” Of course, in typical Ducati fashion, the Bologna-based manufacturer also introduced a smaller sibling — sharing the frame and bodywork — known as the 848.

Introduced in 2011, the “EVO” variant of Ducati’s 848 was something that Cycle World called a “midlife upgrade”, with “performance gains…intended to benefit racers and street riders alike.”

The engine got new throttle bodies with larger bores, revised cylinder heads, and a new profile of the piston crown, which significantly bumped the compression ratio from 12.0:1 to 13.2:1. This helped increase horsepower to 140 at the crank.
