2014 Testastretta 11Description:

848 Testastretta 11°A masterpiece of Desmodromicenginedesign, he 848 Testastretta 11° can deliver 132 hp at 10,000 rpm and a torque of 9.5 kgm at 9,500 rpm. A direct offshoot of the Testastretta Evoluzione used on the Superbike 848EVO, t makes the most of the Testastretta 11° technology that has already proved so successful on the Multistrada and Diavel, iving awesome torque even at low revs. With respect to the Testastretta Evoluzione the overlap angle has been reduced from 37° to 11° to ensure unbeatably fluid power delivery, much wider power band and reduced consumption and emissions.

The Testastretta 11°maintenanceschedule requires valve regulation just once every 24,000 km.

Power & torque curvesWith its 132 HP and awesome torque of 9.5 Kgm (93.5Nm) at 9,500 rp, he 848 Testastretta 11° provides pure Desmodromic performance. Radical changes to the timing diagram have allowed achievement of a full torque curve even at low revs, hich considerably increases the ridability of the Steetfighter 848 and, ecause it remains constant throughout an extremely widepowerband, nsures maximum enjoyment at high revs too.

Magnesium alloy coversAttention to weight reduction is further underlined with both cam covers andclutchouter cover cast in manesium alloy.

Vacural® crankcasesThe Testastretta 11°engineon the Streetfighter 848 features a crankcase produced by pressure die casting under vacuum using Vacural® technology: this gives significant weight savings and ensures constant wall thickness and greater strength.

CrankshaftThe Streetfighter 848 lightweight crankshaft assembly operates a ‘over-square’ bore and stroke with 94mm pistons and 61.2mm strokes.

Wet clutchThe Testastretta 11° engine transmits drive to a sophisticated wet clutch that is a full kilo lighter than the corresponding dry version; it is also characterised by enhanced durability, mproved ’feel’ and lower noise levels, aking riding a real pleasure whatever the circumstances.

Exhaust systemThe massive 2-1-2exhaustsystem is made from weight-saving 1mm thick steel and flows from 58mm to 63.5mm diameter pipes. The system uses two lambda probes to ensure precise fuel mapping for optimum performance and an electronic valve in the mid-section to achieve a wide spread of power.

The cannon-style, ertically stacked, rushed steel mufflers deliver the famous Ducati L-Twin sound synonymous with raw, esmopower.

Chassis:ErgonomicsThe riding position on the Streetfighter 848 gives maximum control thanks to a dominant stance achieved through in-depth study of seat-footpegs-handlebar distances, roviding maximumcomfortwithout changing the unique ’feel’ that only a Ducati-designed naked can offer its rider.

Fighter 848 frameThanks to an exceptional dry weight of 169 kg, he Streetfighter 848 has the best power-weight ratio in its category. The new Trellisframe, haracterised by a rake angle of 24.5° and a fork yoke offset of 103 mm, as the same geometry as that on the Superbike 848, nsuring maximum responsiveness to rider control.

Marzocchi forksFully adjustable 43mm Marzocchi forks feature a natural chrome slider finish and radial mounts for the brake callipers and are fully adjustable in spring preload as well as compression and rebound damping.

BrakesThe new Streetfighter 848 uses powerful 4-piston radially-mounted Brembo calipers on dual 320 mm discs at the front and a 2-piston caliper at the rear that acts on a 245 mm dis, hus ensuring efficient, nstantly available, wesome braking power.

Sachs rear suspensionA fully adjustable Sachs monoshock at the rear operates through aprogressivelinkage and is also fully adjustable in spring preload and damping, oth in compression and rebound.

Lightweight 10-spoke wheelsThe 10-spoke wheels, .5 inches at the rear and 3.5 inches at the front, ade of lightweight black-finished aluminium, elp reduce overall bike weight and also make sure that limitation of unsprung weight (i.e. the mass of all the components between the suspension andthe roadsurface – wheels, yres, rake calipers and discs etc.) is achieved. When these parts rotate they would, f too heavy, ffect the handling characteristics of the bike on account of the gyroscopic effect.

Single-sided swingarmAt the rear, he all-new single-sided swingarm, inished in black, s a high-grade aluminium cast that has been lengthened by 35 mm with respect to the Superbike, hus taking the overall wheelbase to 1475 mm for even more uncompromisingacceleration.

Equipment:Compact instrumentsThe Streetfighter’s instrumentation blends into the aggressive line of the headlight. Information additional to the default read-outs is managed from the left-hand handlebar-mounted switchgear, llowing the rider to scroll through and select from various menus.

The display presents rpm and speed, ith the former displayed across the screen in a progressive bar graph. Additionally, he instruments display lap times, TC status and level selected (if activated on Streetfighter S) time, ir temperature, oolant temperature, attery voltage, wo trips and a trip that automatically starts as the fuel system goes onto reserve.

Warning lights illuminate to signify neutral, urn signals, igh beam, ev-limit, ow oil pressure, uel reserve, TC intervention (if activated on Streetfighter S) and scheduledmaintenance.

The instrument display is also used as the controlpanelsfor the DDA and DTC systems as well as listing lap times recorded by using the high-beam flash button as a stopwatch.

Minimalist switchgearThe switchgear presents minimalism at its best. The slim-line bodies house easy-to-use switches and buttons and feature a unique weapons-like ‘trigger catch’ that slides down tocoverthe starter button when activating the kill-switch.

LightingThe aggressive looking headlight is the ‘face’ of the Streetfighter and it leaves little doubt as to its character. While the main lighting source and multi-reflector design provides powerful illumination to cut through the night, ts two evil eye strips of LED positioning lights give a striking and unmistakable identity to the bike.

Keepingdesignmatters clean and stylish, he directional indicators remain unobtrusive with clear lenses and coloured bulbs, hile the rear light is integral to the shape of the tailpiece, roviding unobscured illumination while maintaining the smooth and elegant look to the high and sharp rear-end.

Ducati Quick Shift systemThe Streetfighter 848 has fixtures to mount the Ducati Quick Shift system. Usually used in racing, his device allows you to change gear without using theclutchand keeping the throttle open, inimising shift times, hich contributes significantly to reducing lap times.

The DQS has a microswitch inserted in the shift control transmission rod unit, vailable as a Ducati Performance accessory, hat is used to start the system.

Ducati Traction Control (DTC)Accessible from the left-hand switchgear and displayed on the digital instrumentation, ucati Traction Control (DTC) offers a choice of eight profiles, r ‘sensitivity levels’, ach one programmed with a wheel-spin tolerance matched to progressive riding levels of skill, raded from one to eight.

While level eight administers a confidence-building, igh level of interaction from thesystemby activating upon the slightest amount of wheel-spin, evel one offers a much higher tolerance, esulting in less intervention for highly competent riders.

Once the level is selected and DTC activated, oth are displayed on the instrumentation. The system then analyses data sent from front and rear wheel speed sensors to detect wheel-spin. Should the system recognise wheel-spin above a certain threshold, he DTCECUinstantly evaluates the many possible wheel-spin scenarios before administering two types of interaction in varying amounts.

DTC is able to sense the exact use that the bike is being put to. From slow mid-corner acceleration with considerable vehicle inclination to high speed corner exits while almost upright, TC is intelligent enough to react according to each and every situation. It’s even smart enough to not intervene if you decide to perform a burnout or a wheelie.

The first ‘soft’ stage of system interaction is executed by high speed software that instantly makes electronic adjustment to theignitionby administering varying amounts of retardation to reduce the engine’s torque output.

During this initial stage of DTC interaction, oth outer warninglightson the instrumentation – normally used to signify over-rev – illuminate to signify that DTC is being applied.

If the DTC software detects that the first ‘soft’ stage of system interaction is inadequate to control the wheel-spin, t continues to administer ignition retardation and instructs the engine ECU to initiate a pattern of constantly increasing injection cuts until, f necessary, ull injection cut. During this second stage of system interaction, oth outer and central warning lights fully illuminate to signify that DTC has also initiated injection cuts.

After either stage one (ignition retardation) or stage two (pattern of injection cuts or full cut), he system incrementally returns to the original ignition and injection mapping as the wheel speeds approach equalisation. This carefully programmed return to full power delivery is the real key to DTC’s smooth and efficient operation.

In developing its World Championship-winning traction control system for road use, ucati continue to demonstrate their strategy of transferring technologies from their race bikes into the production environment, nd show how solutions developed for performance on the track really can be applied to enhance safety onthe road.

StopwatchThe digital display is programmed with a stopwatch function that, hen enabled, an be triggered by using the high-beam flash button and each recorded time stored in a memory. After yourjourneyor track session, he times or lap times can be recalled from the memory and scrolled through by using the instrumentation buttons on the left-hand switchgear.

Fighter controlsThe handlebars are gripped by beautifully shaped clamps that flow sleekly into the bar-risers. Symmetrically mounted, emote brake and clutch reservoirs are small, ow andcompactand feed slim, adial master-cylinders by Brembo to complete the clean and uncluttered controls arrangement.
