This is the bike of my technical colleague =) Ducati 848 with 1098 race fairings. He rode a 2:46:00 on Spa Francorchamps 2 weeks ago. He managed to fly by a lot of purpose built litre racebikes Pirelli Diablo Superbike SC1 on the front and rear. And an aftermarket quickshifter + homologated race muffles from Termi are his cocktail to make things happen Greetings from Belgium!
