The Ducati Desmosedici RR Casey Stoner Replica was a super-tuned RR belonging to Charley Farley, a customer who was unhappy with a stock Desmisedici RR. The Customer took the bike to Rage Designs for a makeover that pleased its mind.

The guys from Rage Designs made from the stock Ducati Desmosedici RR a one-to-one replica of the machine ridden by Casey Stoner in the 2009 Australian MotoGP, with an additional Termignoni GP exhaust, HM quick-shifter, and a Dynojet Power Commander, making it the most powerful machine in its class.

In other departments, the bike was identical to the standard model, packing a full fairing with a small windscreen, a dual headlight system, a single seat, an under-seat-tucked exhaust system, and seven-spoke lightweight wheels.

In the performance department, the 2010 Ducati Desmosedici RR Casey Stoner Replica had installed a 989cc four-stroke V-twin liquid-cooled engine with a fuel injection system in charge, delivering 200 hp with a peak force at 13,800 rpm and 117 Nm (86 lb-ft) torque at 10,500 rpm.

The bike's power was handled by a six-speed cassette-type gearbox with a hydraulically-controlled dry multi-plate and slipper-type clutch, spinning the rear wheel through a final chain drive to 302 kph (188 mph).

The bike's suspension comprised a 43 mm adjustable TiN-coated Ohlins fork on the front and an adjustable Ohlins shock absorber on the rear, delivering excellent suspension performance and handling.
