It was a victorious first outing for the Ducati Desmo450 MX in its competitive debut in the Italian Motocross Prestige Championship.

Alessandro Lupino rode the Ducati to the MX1 class pole position on Saturday. Lupino, a former MXGP (Motocross World Championship) Champion converted the pole position to a win in the first moto (first race) on Sunday. Unfortunately, he made a bad start in the second moto (second race) to finish in 7th. The result meant that he could only secure 2nd overall.

There is understandably a lot of vibe surrounding the Ducati Desmo450 MX. The Italian factory was able to “lure” former MXGP legend Antonio “Toni” Cairoli over from his long-time home, KTM to act as the development and test rider.

Also, the bike is an effort to diversify into another segment different from the expensive sport-oriented bikes they are synonymous with. We can look forward to a Ducati MX bike, and sure enough, an enduro in the coming years.

Apart from that, the single-cylinder 450cc engine is an interesting development, again, moving away from their multi-cylinder offerings.

It has to be said that Ducati is hot on the heels of another European factory – Triumph – in building dirtbikes. However, the latter’s TF 250-X is a 250cc machine and is now racing in the American Supercross series. It had achieved great results in its opening race, as well. Additionally, the Triumph is already on sale.

Motosikal Ducati Streetfighter V4 S pun sudah merupakan “taikor” yang paling berkuasa  di kalangan motosikal hypernaked dengan enjin tanpa turbo/supercharger. Tetapi Ducati sekarang sering bekerjasama dengan pembuat-pembuat otomobil serta penghasil produk gaya hidup bagi menghasilkan model-model yang lagi mengancam, seperti Ducati Streetfighter V4 S Supreme Edition ini.

Pembuat pakaian jenama Supreme pula tidak pernah segan daripada menghasilkan gaya fesyen yang menyelah. Oleh itu, motosikal ini dipenuhi dengan logo-logo serta corak Supreme.

Penggunaan logo serta warna seperti ini membuatkan sebuah motosikal yang sudah agak agresif kepada sesuatu yang lebih garang lagi. Mula-mula sekali anda akan melihat corak warna dan kemudiannya kepada logo Supreme yang amat besar yang diletakkan daripada sebelah kiri ke sebelah kanan tangki. Selain daripada itu, terdapat juga logo di bahagian ekor motosikal, serta pada rim-rim yang dicat warna putih.

Tambah lagi, pembli motosikal ini turut boleh menambahkan sebuah topi keledar Arai Corsair-X (dikenali sebagai RX-7X di sini) yang juga menggunakan warna Supreme. Corak topi keledar ini dihasilkan khas sebagai pelengkap untuk motosikal Ducati Streetfighter V4 S Supreme Edition ini.

Namun, kesemua aspek dan ciri mekanik serta elektronik kekal sama, termasuklah enjin Desmosedici V4 Stradale yang amat berkuasa: 208hp dengan tork 133.4Nm.

Bahagian casisnya terdiri daripada fork depan Öhlins NIX 30 berukuran 43mm dengan kawalan elektronik, manakala monoshoknya merupakan Öhlins TTX 36 juga dengan kawalan elektronik. Sistem breknya terdiri daripada kaliper Brembo Stylema Monoblock (yang berwarna merah) di depan dan kaliper terapung tunggal di belakang.

Terdapat juga segala ciri kawalan elektronik seperti kawalan cengkaman selekoh, kawalan “wheelie,” kawalan gelongsoran, kawalan lepasan, serta macam-macam lagi seperti pada model-model Ducati yang berprestasi tinggi.

Ducati belum mengumumkan harga motosikal ini dan di pasaran manakah ia akan dijual.

The Ducati Streetfighter V4 S already rules the roost as the most powerful non-aspirated hypernaked beast, with 208hp on tap. But the trend of cooperation with automobile manufacturers and lifestyle product makers certainly ups the style quotient to 11. Check out this Ducati Streetfighter V4 S Supreme Edition.

The apparel maker Supreme does not shy away from making bold statements. Hence the liberal use of their famous screaming red and white logos and colours on the bike.

Needless to say, it turns a er… head turning design to something extremely loud. One cannot miss the huge Supreme logo draped over fuel tank from one side to the other, plus another logo on the tail cover just to remind the rider that this is not his cousin’s Streetfighter V4 S. And oh, the wheels are painted in white without forgetting the Supreme logo, too.

Additionally the buyer may go the whole nine yards and complete the look with an Arai Corsair-X (known in Malaysia as the RX-7X) helmet, also resplendent in Supreme’s colours. This limited edition helmet was made exclusively for the Ducati Streetfighter V4 S Supreme Edition.

Mechanical and electronic aspects and features remain unchanged, including the aforementioned beasty Desmosedici Stradale V4 engine that kicks out a whopping 208hp and 133.4 Nm of torque.

The chassis consists of electronically controlled 43mm fully adjustable Öhlins NIX 30 forks up front and an Öhlins TTX 36 electronic rear shock. The anchors are twin Brembo Stylema Monoblock calipers in front (finished in red) and a floating caliper at the rear.

The entire electronic suite is featured here such as cornering traction control, wheelie control, slide control, launch control, and all sorts of other “controls” as expected of a high performance Ducati.

There is no word yet on how much the bike will sell for and availability in which markets.

– Di tengah-tengah pemandangan indah Madonna di Campiglio semasa acara Campioni in Pista, Ducati mendedahkan Desmo450 MX, satu pencapaian terbaru dalam dunia permotoran yang belum pernah dijelajah oleh Ducati.

– Dua puluh jurutera memulakan perjalanan penciptaan yang mengagumkan, menolak tandingan untuk menghasilkan keunikan, satu ciri utama Ducati.

– Di bawah pimpinan Claudio Domenicali, CEO Ducati, arahan adalah jelas: menarik generasi muda ke dalam pengembaraan luar jalan.

– Projek ini menekankan pembinaan jentera ringan, berprestasi tinggi, direka khas untuk peminat Ducati.

– Prestasi cemerlang dalam penemuan ini menarik perhatian ramai, walaupun terdapat elemen kerahsiaan dalam pembinaan jentera.

– Sistem Desmo MX dibangunkan dengan pasukan dari MotoGP dan ini mempercepatkan inovasi.

– Ducati memangil nya “Projek 21J”, dan pengembangan bermula pada tahun 2021, menunjukkan pendekatan teliti Ducati terhadap inovasi.

– Kemasukan juara dunia sembilan kali, Tony Cairoli, memberi semangat baru ke dalam projek ini.

– Penganugerahan Desmo450 MX dalam Kejohanan Motocross Pro Prestij MX1 Itali menjadi permulaan babak baru buat Ducati.

– Perjalanan Ducati ke dalam wilayah yang belum dijelajahi dipenuhi dengan cabaran, tetapi satu perkara pasti: Desmo450 MX bukan sekadar jentera; tetapi mencerminkan semangat Ducati yang tak berbelah bagi keunggulan.

Amidst the scenic Madonna di Campiglio during the Campioni in Pista spectacle, Ducati unveiled its latest marvel: the Desmo450 MX, a groundbreaking venture into uncharted territory.

The result of twenty trailblazing engineers who embarked on a journey of pure creation, shunning imitation in favour of originality, a hallmark of Ducati’s ethos.

“Our odyssey began with a meticulous study of our rivals,” remarked Davide Perni, the visionary mind behind Ducati Corse Off-Road. “In the realm of off-road racing, where regulations have stagnated for two decades, our competitors have reached the zenith of innovation. Yet, we were driven to craft something unique, something quintessentially Ducati.”

Guided by Claudio Domenicali, Ducati’s visionary CEO, the directive was clear. “Ducati resonates with discerning patrons seeking excellence and passion,” he declared. “By venturing into the off-road domain, we aim to captivate a younger audience, beckoning them to embrace the thrill of off-road adventure and perhaps sow the seeds of future Ducati loyalists.”

The project’s genesis was resolute: to birth a lightweight, high-performance machine tailored for the fervent Ducati faithful.

“We are immensely gratified,” continued Perni, “for the Desmo450 MX is a testament to our relentless pursuit of innovation. It’s not just a bike; it’s a testament to our ingenuity.” Though veiled in secrecy, Perni hinted at the monumental effort invested in its creation.

“The chassis, a departure from convention, posed a unique challenge,” he divulged. “It was a question of steel or aluminum, a delicate balance between agility and resilience.” In the end, aluminum emerged victorious, embodying Ducati’s unwavering pursuit of excellence.

At its core lies the Desmodromic valve actuation, a testament to Ducati’s technological prowess. “The Desmo system, often misunderstood, is our pièce de résistance,” explained Perni. “While intricate, it embodies our commitment to excellence.”

But this is no ordinary engine; it’s a racing masterpiece, meticulously engineered for durability and performance. “Our goal was to craft a racing engine with the reliability of a street-legal counterpart,” clarified Perni, “offering our patrons unrivaled performance with manageable maintenance costs.”

The symbiotic bond between Ducati Corse and its production arm is palpable. “Working in tandem with the Desmo system,” Perni elaborated, “allowed us to draw insights from MotoGP and production departments alike, propelling us towards innovation.” Collaboration extended to fuel development, with an eye toward eco-conscious solutions.

Internally dubbed “Project 21J,” this odyssey commenced in 2021, a testament to Ducati’s meticulous approach to innovation.

The arrival of nine-time world champion Tony Cairoli infused fresh energy into the project. “Though a newcomer, Tony’s expertise is invaluable,” remarked the technical director. “His insights will prove pivotal in steering our endeavor towards greatness.”

Antonio Cairoli’s illustrious career speaks volumes. Dubbed the Valentino Rossi of motocross, he’s a force to be reckoned with. “After years of triumphs,” Cairoli reflected, “this project beckoned me. It’s a testament to Italian ingenuity and innovation—a legacy I’m proud to uphold.”

Alessandro Lupino, a rising star in motocross, brings his own flair to the project. “Ducati’s dedication to excellence is evident,” Lupino affirmed. “The Desmo450 MX is a marvel—an ode to innovation.”

The Desmo450 MX’s debut in the Italian Motocross Pro Prestige MX1 Championship marks the beginning of a new chapter. Racing will refine its edges, with eyes set on the MXGP Championship in 2025.

Ducati’s journey into uncharted terrain is fraught with challenges, but one thing is clear: the Desmo450 MX is not just a bike; it’s a testament to Ducati’s unwavering pursuit of excellence.

Ducati Malaysia telah mengumumkan pelancaran Ducati Streetfighter V4 Lamborghini yang baru. Tambahan terbaru kepada barisan Ducati ini mewakili semangat kedua-dua jenama, menggabungkan kuasa dan prestasi motosikal Ducati dengan kemewahan dan elegan yang sinonim dengan Lamborghini.

Ducati Streetfighter V4 Lamborghini – Formula Yang Tidak Disangka:
Bab kedua kerjasama sejarah ini mendedahkan Ducati Streetfighter V4 Lamborghini yang baru, sebuah motosikal yang menghormati sejarah bersama kedua-dua legenda Motor Valley di Itali ini. Diilhamkan oleh falsafah reka bentuk Lamborghini Huracán STO (Super Trofeo Omologata), Edisi Ducati Streetfighter V4 Lamborghini memaparkan livery khas dan ciri badan yang direka khas yang mencerminkan garis-garis aerodinamik yang licin pada saingannya dalam bidang automotif.

Ciri Utama:
– Reka Bentuk Yang Diilhamkan: Mengambil contoh dari Huracán STO yang ikonik, rimnya menampilkan reka bentuk yang elegan, diperkukuh lagi dengan nut pengunci titanium pada rim belakang. Streetfighter V4 Lamborghini juga mempunyai tekstur serat karbon dan penyelesaian yang sama dengan Lamborghini Huracán STO. Bagi mudguard depan, penutup underbelly, penutup sisi tangki bahan api dan penutup tempat duduk penumpang, semuanya meniru lubang udara masuk dan saluran udara pada Huracán STO. Sebagai sentuhan tambahan, tempat duduk rider kini dilapisi dengan Alcantara eksklusif.

– Enjin Kuasa: Dikuasai oleh enjin Desmosedici Stradale 1,103 cc, Edisi Ducati Streetfighter V4 Lamborghini mempunyai output kuasa yang mengagumkan sebanyak 208 hp, menggunakan teknologi desmodromik berasaskan MotoGP.

– Livery Yang Tersendiri: Edisi Ducati Streetfighter V4 Lamborghini memaparkan livery unik yang menampilkan logo STO yang ikonik dan nombor 63, mengingati tahun penubuhan Lamborghini. Kembali kepada Huracán STO, cat dan skema warna yang digunakan pada Streetfighter V4 Lamborghini Edition adalah sama seperti yang digunakan untuk kereta; warna utama yang mencolok pada bahagian kerja badan adalah “Verde Citrea”, manakala warna kontrasnya adalah “Arancio Dac”. Model edisi terhad ini melambangkan elegan dan kemampuan prestasi Itali, menawarkan pengalaman pemanduan yang tiada tandingannya.

Dennis Michael, Ketua Pegawai Operasi Ducati Malaysia, berkata: “Kami bangga bahawa dua daripada motosikal ini berada di Malaysia.

Ducati Malaysia has announced the debut of the new Ducati Streetfighter V4 Lamborghini, a striking fusion of Ducati’s performance prowess and Lamborghini’s luxury heritage.

The Ducati Streetfighter V4 Lamborghini – A Surprising Collaboration:
Continuing the legacy of collaboration between these two iconic brands, the Ducati Streetfighter V4 Lamborghini pays homage to their shared heritage. Drawing inspiration from Lamborghini’s Huracán STO (Super Trofeo Omologata), this special edition motorcycle features a bespoke livery and design elements echoing the sleek lines of its automotive counterpart.

Highlighted Features:
– Design Inspiration: Taking cues from the renowned Huracán STO, the Streetfighter V4 Lamborghini showcases stylish rims with titanium locking nuts and carbon fiber finishing reminiscent of the Huracán STO.

– Powerful Performance: Propelled by the 1,103 cc Desmosedici Stradale engine, the Ducati Streetfighter V4 Lamborghini Edition delivers an impressive 208 hp, employing MotoGP-derived desmodromic distribution. Equipped with racing-inspired dry clutch and Akrapovic approved silencers in titanium and carbon fiber, it ensures an exhilarating ride.
– Unique Livery: Adorning a distinctive livery featuring the STO logo and the number 63, symbolising Lamborghini’s founding year, the Streetfighter V4 Lamborghini boasts the same paint scheme as the Huracán STO. With “Verde Citrea” as the primary body color and “Arancio Dac” as the contrasting hue, it exudes Italian elegance and performance.

Dennis Michael, Chief Operating Officer of Ducati Malaysia, expressed pride in housing two of these exclusive bikes in Malaysia, emphasising the Ducati Streetfighter V4 Lamborghini’s embodiment of innovation and heritage shared by Ducati and Lamborghini enthusiasts in Malaysia.

Priced at RM460,900, the Ducati Streetfighter V4 Lamborghini epitomises the essence of Motor Valley, offering discerning riders a blend of style and performance in a rare and exclusive package.

Selepas pengumuman baru-baru ini mengenai projek terbaru yang melibatkan pelbagai model off-road yang akan dilancarkan dalam masa terdekat, Ducati telah membuat keputusan strategik untuk memanfaatkan pertandingan motocross kebangsaan sebagai sebahagian penting dalam pelan pembangunan produknya.

Dengan rancangan untuk menyertai pertandingan motocross seawal 2024, inisiatif ini termasuk penggunaan prototaip 450 yang telah di handover kepada Alessandro Lupino, dengan kerjasama Antonio Cairoli sebagai test rider prestasi tinggi.

Sebagai sokongan terhadap usaha ini, Ducati secara rasmi telah menubuhkan bahagian Off-Road dalam Ducati Corse. Bahagian yang baru ini akan bertanggungjawab terhadap penyelenggaraan dan pengurusan program sukan motocross yang komprehensif, termasuk penyertaan dalam Kejuaraan Dunia MXGP dan Kejuaraan AMA Supercross dalam beberapa tahun akan datang.

Paolo Ciabatti, yang pernah menjadi Pengarah Sukan Ducati Corse dari 2013 hingga 2023, telah dipanggil untuk mengisi jawatan Pengurus Besar Ducati Corse Off-Road yang baharu. Diberi tanggungjawab untuk membawa syarikat Borgo Panigale ke arah kejayaan dalam dunia perlumbaan off-road, Ciabatti akan melapor terus kepada Ketua Pegawai Eksekutif Ducati Motor Holding, Claudio Domenicali.

Selain dari tugas baru beliau, Ciabatti akan juga bertanggungjawab untuk mengkoordinasikan usaha sukan Ducati dalam kejohanan SBK dan SSP kebangsaan, termasuk MotoAmerica, British Superbike, All-Japan Superbike, Australian Superbike, dan CIV sepanjang tahun 2024.

Sementara itu, Mauro Grassilli, Ketua Pemasaran dan Sponsorship di Ducati Corse, akan mengambil peranan berbilang sebagai Pengarah Sukan, Pemasaran, dan Komunikasi dalam Ducati Corse.

Melapor terus kepada Pengurus Besar Ducati Corse, Luigi Dall’Igna, Grassilli akan memainkan peranan penting dalam menentukan arah strategik penglibatan Ducati dalam perlumbaan off-road.

Ducati Corse kekal kukuh dalam komitmennya untuk menguruskan kejohanan MotoGP dan WorldSBK secara serentak. Objektif keseluruhan adalah untuk membina kejayaan seterusnya yang telah menjadi sinonim dengan tahun-tahun terkini syarikat Borgo Panigale itu.

In the wake of a recent announcement detailing an upcoming project featuring a lineup of off-road models set to debut in the near future, Ducati has positioned itself to harness the competitive spirit of national motocross competitions as a pivotal component of its product development strategy.

With plans to enter the fray as early as 2024, the initiative includes fielding a 450 prototype entrusted to Alessandro Lupino, with the expertise of Antonio Cairoli contributing as the high-performance test rider.

Responding to this dynamic venture, Ducati has officially established the Off-Road Division within Ducati Corse. This newly formed division will be responsible for the orchestration and oversight of the comprehensive sporting program, encompassing participation in the MXGP World Championship and the AMA Supercross Championship in the forthcoming years.

Paolo Ciabatti, who served as the Sporting Director of Ducati Corse from 2013 to 2023, has been appointed as the General Manager of the newly minted Ducati Corse Off-Road. Tasked with propelling the Borgo Panigale company to triumph in the realm of off-road racing, Ciabatti will report directly to the CEO of Ducati Motor Holding, Claudio Domenicali.

In addition to his new role, Ciabatti will retain responsibilities for coordinating Ducati’s sporting endeavors in prominent national SBK and SSP championships, including MotoAmerica, British Superbike, All Japan Superbike, Australian Superbike, and CIV throughout 2024.

Meanwhile, Mauro Grassilli, currently the Head of Marketing and Sponsorships at Ducati Corse, is set to assume the multifaceted role of Sporting, Marketing, and Communications Director within Ducati Corse. Reporting directly to Ducati Corse General Manager Luigi Dall’Igna, Grassilli will play a pivotal role in steering the strategic direction of Ducati’s involvement in off-road racing.

Ducati Corse says that it remains unwavering in its commitment to managing the MotoGP and WorldSBK championships concurrently. The overarching objective is to build upon the remarkable string of successes that has become synonymous with the Borgo Panigale company.
