Ducati Motorcycles Revolution In Bologna
Ducati Motorcycles News - Here at last the heart of the new Ducati 1199 Superbike Panigale. The Superquadro – official code name – finally breaking with the tradition of previous blocks Superbike.
More straps,an extremely comp
act, a mixed distribution, coastal internal record for a twin-cylinder mass and power just as remarkable 195-horsepower version of the standard version for free: Ducati motorcycles turned a corner ..
After the stolen pictures,rumors, the announcement effects, the teaser itself Ducati motorcycles, we finally have concrete information on the real potential of future technological showcase of the brand of Bologna. Ducati has chosen, once will not hurt, the first to unveil its new Superbike engine before making the 1199 Panigale in its entirety. Surprisingly, this engine called “Superquadro” surely promises to date in the history of the brand and probably one of the bike …
Super, super square, Superquadro!
Forget the old references, Ducati engineers have chosen to start from a blank sheet to create this new engine. Why? Because the current block is undoubtedly reached the end of the race, while new choices have grown in the meantime the ducati motorcycles specifications, particularly in terms of internal ratings, distribution, size, etc.. Also, Ducati has probably reworked probably a copy in every detail to take advantage of the dimensions allowed by the sporting regulations of the World Superbike while maintaining reliability for a decent bike “road“. No surprise on this first point: because they can increase the displacement, the motorsistes therefore have the – in part – to increase the maximum speed of rotation to gain power. As the name implies, the new twin Superquadro Italian is more “super square” than ever: 112 mm bore x stroke 60.8 mm x 67.9 mm against 106 mm for 1198 today.This results in a pair of pistons with a diameter of record operating on a very short distance in order to rev up without generating constraints are impossible to solve. While the 1198 SP develops 170 hp. at 9750 rev / min, the 1199 promises, she, no less than 195 hp. at 10 750 rev / min … The video below speaks for itself: we swim in the middle of science fiction!
L always, always Desmo … but that’s it!
We also see through these first figures, everything has been redesigned to upgrade the twin for power the new 1199 superbike Panigale.If Ducati has still retained its typical architecture in L, the block has been shifted to the rear of 6 ° for the forward in the chassis and load the front wheel as engineers always try to do on sports to agility. In a compact record given its generous dimensions, this engine will assume a role in stiffening of the bike. Again, if not revolutionary in the Italian manufacturer, training dual-distribution chain and gears between the ACT submissions to oblivion the antediluvian belts. This distribution does not draw a line provided on the system booster desmodromic valves. In fact, the design of this new top end and the new distribution was dictated by the need to increase the diameter of the valves and pistons (and thus their weight). Ducati but also says he wanted to end the recurring replacement belts and get a more stable management of constraints in time. Moreover, it is clear that this new engine will provide the basis for other Ducati mechanics to come and probably not just sports … By choosing to forget including belts, brand promise and review intervals comparable to those of competing bikes, a point on which the current Ducati are consistently singled out.
The Ducati motorcycles are ultimate?
In addition, the engineers took the opportunity to graft a system decompressor novel to them, it seems, limited the size and weight of the starter needed to wake up from such depths.Peripheral side, the clutch takes an oil bath and a slipper, while the electronic management is announced as formidable. Even if we do not yet know the extent of his control (mapping multiple, adjustable anti skating, other?),It’s a safe bet that it would introduce a new development. Similarly, one can expect that ducati motorcycles has kept the shifter for easy gear shifting gas in style! Finally, another rumor already, on a frame reduced to a bare minimum: after the next appointment, stay tuned!
