  • Multistrada 1260 Enduro a Whole New World. Yours to Conquer
    The Redline Magazine 1|2019 Multistrada 1260 Enduro A whole new world. Yours to conquer. Foreword Welcome to Ducati Welcome Always Out to conquer more Croatia Since becoming a part of the big Ducati family, there has been no year-end that hasn’t moved Jadranska Magistrala me when I think about the main events characte- rising it. And 2018 is no exception… I recall the Adriatic Highway incredible success of the tenth edition of World Ducati Week, with record attendance of more Karlobag 44°31’04.8”N 15°05’14.7”E than 91,000 at the Misano circuit, not to mention the Race of Champions starring the Panigale V4 and twelve of our MotoGP and SBK riders, the absolute highlight of the show! Then the Moto- GP championship, which brought us 7 race wins and where we consistently played a starring role with our first-rate riders and bikes. An achieve- ment only underlined by the category’s speed record, 356.4 km/h, set by Andrea Dovizioso at the Mugello GP! These numbers and emotions remind me, and remind us just how strong and consolidated our brand is in the hearts of fans around the world, the very fans who have in- spired, and continue to inspire the concepts of Style, Sophistication and Performance that steer all of our activities. These guidelines have become part of our DNA, and guide us as we continue to research new products, new product segments and new emo- tions to bring to our fans. We want to expand our range to an increasingly wide fanbase, while remaining faithful to those principles at the root of our success.

  • Brembo Presents the 17 & 15Rcs Corsa Corta
    BREMBO PRESENTS THE 17 & 15RCS CORSA CORTA The most innovative master cylinder ever developed by Brembo is now even more precise and modular for all types of motorbike Brembo - the world leader in the design, development and production of braking systems - announces the introduction of the 17 mm and 15 mm versions of the RCS Corsa Corta, the most innovative radial master cylinder for road use available on the market today. The expansion of the RCS Corsa Corta family responds in an optimised and customised way to the needs of all types of motorbike, which can now rely on even more tailor-made braking thanks to the choice of ideal sizes of RCS Corsa Corta master cylinders (15, 17 or 19 mm) to suit the braking characteristics of each motorbike. To make the braking system of a motorbike work even better, not only in terms of braking power but also of modulation and sensitivity on the lever, the master cylinder must be sized appropriately and ensure the best hydraulic torque ratio; the latter being the relationship between the diameter of the master cylinder piston and the diameter of the caliper pistons. This means that, depending on the size of the brake caliper pistons of each motorbike model, it is possible to choose the most suitable RCS Corsa Corta master cylinder for a perfect dimensional match with the rest of the braking system. In fact, if a master cylinder is oversized, this pushes an excessive mass of oil onto the caliper pistons, to the detriment of braking modulation and lever sensitivity.

Such growth wouldn’t have been so substantial without the participation of all the Ducatisti, including the company employees, the competitors on the racetracks and our customers and fans all over the world These are people who represent our brand with pride and enthusiasm and who, each in their own different way, contribute to the attainment of a common goal.

  • Ducati Quintessence. the Most Powerful Twin of All Time Welcome to Ducati
    The Redline Magazine 1|2017 DUCATI QUINTESSENCE. THE MOST POWERFUL TWIN OF ALL TIME WELCOME TO DUCATI CHAZ DAVIES MORE THAN RED: DUCATI SBK FACTORY RIDER EVOLUTION NEVER STOPS OF DUCATI CORSE UNMATCHED TRADITION WITH ELITE PERFORMANCE. In the beginning, it was red. The colour of passion, and the iconic colour of all our bikes. Over the years we have outdone ourselves, interpreting the evolution of the two-wheeled world and continuously building on our design know-how to extend the range of Ducati colours and emotions that now incorporates the yellow of the Ducati Scrambler family, the black of the XDiavel family and the globetrotting attitude of the Multistrada 1200 Enduro. Evolution that can be summed up with ‘More Than Red’, the expression of a philosophy that has pushed us to explore new paths and new market segments. In 2016 we celebrated our 90th anniversary, and it proved to be a winning year on many fronts, from the enormously successful World Ducati Week to our new production records, from Superbike race wins to our renewed competitiveness in MotoGP and the return, after such a long wait, to winning ways at both Zeltweg and Sepang. 1 New_Era_Ducati_Ad.indd 1 24/11/2016 08:44 STYLE SOPHISTICATION PERFORMANCE But we continue to look to the future. At the recent unmistakable racing aesthetic and summed up with road-going twin of all time, offering 15.0 kgm of torque the Multistrada 950 and the brand new SuperSport, International Motorcycle Show in Milan, we presented just two numbers that speak for themselves: and an electronic management system derived directly which signals a return to a segment that has been the Panigale 1299 Superleggera, or rather the A kerb weight of just 166 kg and 215 HP of power.

    Keep up to date at www.canberradistrictducaticlub.org.au - Tipping Comp - Upcoming Events - Rally Report from Autumn Leaf - Boorowa Ride Report - Constitution Update Ciao Members, I would like to start with the constitution, and thank everybody who came along to not only the meeting but also to vote. It passed almost unanimously (excepting one peanut who decided to vote no after not reading it). This is a good thing for the club bringing it into line with the model rules and protecting the club and its members. Recently nine club members attended the autumn leaf rally as part of a fundraising and catering occasion. Taso has said that after all expenses that there was a profit to the club of $2,100.- which will really help the club with paying for the essential items like insurance and getting some nice bits in too, like new stock for regalia or otherwise. Without the volunteer help, none of that fundraising would be possible. Thanks again to those who helped. PO BOX 1282 CANBERRA CITY ACT 2601 www.canberradistrictducaticlub.org.au Still plenty of events in the calendar. We have asked Desmo Harmonic if they would put a Sunday aside to help the club out and run a service day. DOCNSW’s Italian bike swap meet is on, and some great rides too over the next month. Michael << VP Dribble #6 >> G’day to the great unwashed, what an awesome month we have had. OK, Auto Italia was last month but being on the cusp we didn’t get to talk about it much.
