Ducati Desmosedici RR
THE ULTIMATE DUCATI EXPERIENCE

Ducati launched the Desmosedici RR production prototype during the magical atmosphere of the 2006 Italian Grand Prix at Mugello. The dream of a real GP replica has finally come true as the Desmosedici RR will be the first ever road-going motorcycle to offer the stunning performance and technology taken directly from MotoGP. The RR is derived from the Ducati Corse Grand Prix racing Desmosedici GP6, the same bike which Loris Capirossi and Sete Gibernau have used to compete in the 2006 MotoGP World Championship.

The Mugello launch was the perfect occasion to reveal the shape and the technical characteristics with which the bike will arrive on the market, confirming the high technological features of this exclusive and esoteric machine.

The aerodynamic body design faithfully reflects the Desmosedici GP6. The colour scheme, components and materials used in its construction as well as the technical features of the powerful four-cylinder Desmodromic engine, built by the Borgo Panigale factory engineers, leave no doubts whatsoever: the Desmosedici RR is the ultimate road expression of the most extreme MotoGP racing machine today.

Having been possible to reserve the bike through the official Ducati dealer network since June 2nd 2006, the project is currently in the industrialisation phase and, as previously announced, will be a limited edition motorcycle. The RR is scheduled to arrive on the market in July 2007 with Ducati 999R owners receiving delivery priority.

This is the new frontier of Ducati’s technological evolution, a dream come true. Demonstrating once again the courage and the passion of Ducati as well as the ability to transfer the experience of the racing world to a machine that is destined for road use.

ENGINE
The Ducati Desmosedici RR features the most advanced technology and aerodynamics derived directly from the GP6 raced in the 2006 MotoGP World Championship. The engine of the Desmosedici RR accurately reflects that of the MotoGP bike. Ducati’s traditional Desmodromic system guarantees precise valve control at the very highest revs and is the perfect application for the 989cc, four titanium valves per cylinder, L-Four layout.
This awesome powerplant, which is prepared in asymmetrical Twin Pulse configuration, is a masterwork of precision engineering.

CHASSIS
While the engine clearly represents the beating heart of this fantastic motorcycle, the technological advancements also extend to the chassis. The signature tubular Trellis hybrid frame and highly refined components are dressed in superb carbon fibre bodywork.
This is a motorcycle that is destined for an expert rider, someone who is always looking for extreme sports performance in a product that is exclusive, reliable and more than capable of track racing.

The Desmosedici RR will be available with a special race kit that includes a 102dB racing exhaust, a dedicated CPU, bike cover and paddock stand. A new dedicated service plan is also included to give each Ducati Desmosedici RR owner the benefit of a three-year warranty and three years of scheduled maintenance free of charge.

Two versions of the RR will be available. The ‘Desmosedici RR’ finished in ‘Rosso GP’ with a white number plate on the tail-section and the ‘Desmosedici RR Team Version’ finished in ‘Rosso GP’ with a broad white stripe on the fairing as with the Factory race bikes. A team sponsor decal kit will be provided with each bike.
