In 2013, the Italian motorcycle manufacturer launched the Ducati Superbike 848 EVO, one of the lightest machines in Ducati's superbike family that boasted the latest technology developed by the House of Borgo Panigale.
Some of the latest technology included the Ducati Traction Control (DTC), Ducati Data Analyzer (DDA), and Ducati Quick Shift (DQS). In addition, the bike was fitted with a Showa front fork and a race-derived rear Ohlins shock.
In the appearance department, the bike packed the same standard features as its siblings, such as a full fairing with a dual headlight system, a small windscreen, a two-piece dual seat, an under-seat-mounted exhaust system, a single-sided swingarm, and Y-shaped 10-spoke wheels.
Underneath its bodywork, the 2013 Ducati Superbike 848 Evo had installed an 849cc four-stroke liquid-cooled V-twin engine with a fuel injection system in charge, boasting 140 hp at 10,500 rpm and 98 Nm (72 lb-ft) torque at 9,750 rpm.
The bike was built on a tubular steel Trellis frame with a 43 mm fully adjustable USD Showa fork on the front and a fully adjustable Ohlins shock absorber on the rear, delivering excellent suspension performance and handling.
The braking performance was achieved by two 320 mm semi-floating discs with radially-mounted four-piston Brembo calipers on the front wheel and a 245 mm disc with a dual-piston caliper on the rear wheel.
