Description
The 2015 Ducati 821 has the unmistakable Italian thoroughbred, thanks to its liquid-cooled, 821cc, Testastretta 11° L-Twin with 4 Desmodromically actuated valves per cylinder, which can produce 112 horsepower and 90 Nm of torque. Technology-wise, it has the proven Ducati Safeti Pack (DSP) that includes 9 MP ABS as standard and Ducati Traction Control (DTC), a slipper clutch for increased performance, three riding modes(URBAN, TOURING ans SPORT), as well as ride-by-wire. Its lightweight but also rigid trellis frame has been inspired from race motorcycles, and was designed for increased cornering abilities, without affecting the lightweight build of the bike. Also, passenger comfort has been increased by making the seat adjustable and with the addition of pillion grab rails.
