Casey Stoner Tribute Ducati 1198S Special

We were doubly impressed when Casey Stoner won at his home MotoGP on the Ducati Desmosedici GP9 last year at Phillip Island, Australia. Not only was the victory an emphatic one after his absence from competition due to what later was realized to be lactose intolerance, he did it in style with a special white [...]

Epic Fail for Armani Exchange Ducati Ad

Armani Exchange has launched a new 3-D Ad campaign for their fall 2010 collection that prominently stars a black Ducati 1198S in addition to suitably gorgeous male and female models. There is just one problem. No-one told Armani that the throttle on a Ducati (and every modern motorcycle) is on the right, not the left!?

Ambitious Plan for Ducati 1198 Based Superbike Revealed

With the launch of the Ducati 1098 (and now the 1198) the company reversed its Superbike slide that befell it as a result of the controversially styled 999 range.

Ducati Multistrada 1200 Dyno Reveals a Torque Monster

The Ducati 1198 is hardly known as having a wimpy mid-range but it sure looks that way when compared to the dyno chart for the new 2010 Ducati Multistrada 1200. Newly released factory dyno charts indicate that the new Multi kills the 1198 at the bottom end as was expected given its milder cam timing. [...]

Vyrus is Ugly but Ducati 1198 Powered

Vyrus 987 C3 4V doesn’t exactly roll off the tongue but then this isn’t too much that is traditional with this new bike. Looking something like the Moto Terminator that featured in the movie of the same name, the Vyrus will be able to terminate most other bikes with its 185bhp from a tweaked Ducati [...]
