The winglets on the fairing are now more compact and slimmer. They are capable of delivering 37 kgs of downforce at 300 kmph. The wheels are now made up of Marchesini forged aluminium to help reduce weight. There are several carbon fibre elements such as front fender, wings and heel guards to save weight. There is also a new clutch system, Ducati calls it STM-EVO SBK nine-disc dry clutch.
The engine is a 1,103cc, V4-cylinder, liquid-cooled, Desmosedici Stradale engine. It produces a max power output of 212.5 bhp at 13,000 rpm and 123.6 Nm of peak torque at 9,500 rpm. It comes mated to a 6-speed gearbox with new gear ratios and a bi-direction quickshifter.
Ducati has added two new riding modes so there are 4 riding modes, Low, Medium, High and Full. The riding modes change various parameters of the motorcycle. Being a Ducati, there are loads of electronic aids such as auto tyre calibration, wheelie control, slide control, power launch, traction control, Bosch cornering ABS and engine brake control.
Because there are no major cosmetic changes, the motorcycles still come with a muscular fuel tank, twin-pod LED headlamp with LED Daytime Running Lamps, a single-sided swingarm and an underbelly exhaust.
