Ducati has revealed the new Ducati 848EVO for the first time at Laguna Seca, the site for this weekend’s US MotoGP. The all black Dark model has a black frame, swingarm and engine cases and is the bargain of the Superbike range.

The Ducati 848EVO features a redesigned top end with all new cylinder heads, pistons, throttle bodies and camshafts combine for 6 more ponies for a total of 140hp @ 10,500rpm and 72.3 lb/ft of torque @9,750rpm.

A cross-mounted steering damper and standard fitment of Pirelli Diablo Supercorsa SP tires improves the chassis whilst the specification of Brembo Monoblov calipers for the first time ensures stopping won’t be a problem.

The price of the Dark model is $12,995, $1,000 less than the mechanically identical Red version.
