International
MCN has ridden the Ducati Desmosedici RR before but we've never had the chance to take the motorcycle out on a proving ground and really test the full performance of the MotoGP replica.
Check out the video below to see the bike in action at Elvington test facility as we try out the Desmosedici's full acceleration and top speed.
Find out the results in MCN, Wednesday, July 2, 2008.

By s813noma1 [Affiliate User] 1223910053 Reply Spam [+0] Moderate Up Moderate Down RemoveIf the noise is anything to go by, it must be a great bike. Too bad about the price. Good thing it is also not a v-twin. A lousy rattling, wallet-eating-comes-service-time Duke worth F**k all except on a racetrack like all Ducatis would be a real F**king waste of a cringe-inducing amount of money.

By piloto88ed [Affiliate User] 1223714144 Reply Spam [+0] Moderate Up Moderate Down Removewtf does this have to do with race mo. im black and i have a modded ducati 999R. turbo jet kit, upgraded mufflers, bore-out engine that will make you and ya CBR look like a 4 yr old in a power wheel. you know S**t about bikes man. Ducati is the grand turismo of bikes and honda is just like every other japanese bikes "screamers" all noise....no performance.

By itsabomberscope [Affiliate User] 1223662432 Reply Spam [+0] Moderate Up Moderate Down Removei thought i saw one of these on the road but wasnt sure as it was a little dark but after hearing that i now know it was for sure one of them. it was only going slow but i heard a bike coming so i waited and gave way at a mini roundbout. as it went by i thought it was a ducati and it had a big alice logo on the side but i knew it wasnt a v-twin sound more an angry monster sound. :)

Reasons why stats are not shown: 1)MCN is a weekly UK motorcycling newspaper - vid intices to buy the paper. 2) Rumours the stats were chopped cos of media clampdown by stiffs. Want to know the stats? Top speed 190.78mph and banging off the rev limiter. SS1/4mile 10.26sec @ 146.87. 0-180mph was 16.59sec. 70-0mph 3.27sec. Rear wheel power (EC standard, not Din) 177bhp @ 13,500rpm. Torque: 76.7ft-lb @ 10,700rpm. New sprockets anyone?
