About the Ducati Superleggera V4:

The Ducati Superleggera V4 was unveiled in 2020 as a limited-edition superbike, with only 500 units produced. Extensive use of carbon fiber drastically reduced weight, while the Desmosedici Stradale R engine delivered over 230 hp in racing trim. This made the Superleggera V4 the closest road-homologated motorcycle to a MotoGP machine ever built. The racing version stands out with its lightweight exhaust, carbon fairings and aerodynamic enhancements, pushing performance to the extreme.
