Take One Ducati 1098R, Add $100,000 and Mix Well

4255428026 d58cd166d9 b1 thumb Take One Ducati 1098R, Add $100,000 and Mix WellFor most people managing to get hold of a Ducati 1098R would be exotic enough. Afterall the über twin is second only to the Ducati Desmosedici RR in desirability. For some people, those typically who wealth is such that buying a 1098R in the first place is a decision that requires as much thought as you and I buying a Starbucks coffee, a 1098R is nowhere near trick or exotic enough. The photogallery after the jump shows what happens when you sink $100,000 into Ducatis fastest twin.

This bike is being built by Commonwealth Cycle in Louisville, KY and features a titanium NCR frame, billet triple clamps and so much more like BST carbon wheels and Ohlins RT forks. This is really a no expense spared effort, including a $2,700 Brembo master cylinder!! This bike already produces 190bhp on the dyno before being tuned and will be ridden exclusively on the street by its very lucky owner. Enjoy.

Below are some videos of the bike running and being wound-up on the dyno.


Thanks to Anthony Creek of Desmoworks for the photos and details.

  1. Mark-

    I’ve had the pleasure of watching the guys at Commomwealth build this bike and it is truly a sight to behold. The pictures are great, but you really need to see it up close and personal to truly appreciate it.

    Take care-
