New DUCATI engine - technical details of the Desmosedici Stradale

Motorcycle Ducati Desmosedici RR 2006 review

The description of the Ducati Desmosedici RR 2006 motorcycle is in the queue for publication of the article. Announcement: Today, for almost every new motorcycle that comes into being, marketers strive to carve out their own niche. This one is a road sport, this one is a recreational enduro. But what class should we include a motorcycle that has a little bit of everything? A good bike should have a reliable engine, comfortable ergonomics and simple controls...

Ducati Desmosedici RR is a motorcycle not sold in Russia, equipped with a very high power 200 hp engine. Despite the fact that good models of motorcycles have a very respectable price, and the season for their use is relatively short, the motorcycle market is developing rapidly. And if you believe the words of dealers, then some models of recently released motorcycles are selling like hot cakes at the beginning of the season, and the models brought to Russia are clearly not enough to fully satisfy consumer demand.

A motorcycle has long ceased to be an alternative to a car, and the times when this equipment was bought only because there was not enough money for a full-fledged car are forgotten. Nowadays, two-wheelers can be called technological marvels in many cases, and their cost can be compared with that of prestigious cars.

Many people have started buying motorcycles for hobby purposes as riding or even collecting them has become a good pastime for many people. Many motorcycles, for example the Ducati Desmosedici RR, whose technical characteristics make it possible to call the model a prestigious brand, are in demand among both beginners and experienced motorcyclists.

Motorcycles with an engine capacity of 989 cc. see, appeared as a result of long work of inventors who sought to create a model that was not inferior in characteristics to other versions of the motorcycle. In some cases, these models are not only not inferior, but also ahead of other motorcycles, as they have minimal fuel consumption and other excellent parameters.

Motorcycles with an engine capacity of more than 400 kb. cm, which includes the Ducati Desmosedici RR - this category of motorcycles simply cannot claim the title of “motorcycle for a beginner.” On the contrary, this is already a serious technique that requires certain control of motorcycle equipment with a smaller engine capacity. Yes, she attracts more attention, she is the most beautiful, fast, interesting and there is a huge selection of models. But as power increases, the weight of the motorcycle inevitably increases. In this class you are unlikely to find motorcycles lighter than 180 kg, unless they are the latest motorcycle models.

The most incredible motorcycles

Such models are produced in limited quantities or even in a single copy. They are sometimes so amazing that it is even difficult to believe in their existence.

Harley-Davidson Softail $1.8 million (117 million rubles)

To mark the 130th anniversary of the Swiss watch brand Bucherer, the famous Blue Editions collection, consisting of 17 unique watches, has been replenished with a custom bike. Design with 320 diamonds raised the cost to 1.8 million dollars (117 million rubles). It is based on the Harley-Davidson Softail Slim S model. The engine is illuminated from the inside. The decor is not only gilded details, but also inlaid with diamonds and ultramarines. The motorcycle (it’s even difficult to call this a creation of human hands) starts with a fingerprint. However, from a technical point of view, this is a standard 100 horsepower and 188 km/h, that’s all...

TMC Dumont

Fantastic bike from Formula 1 racer Tarso Marquez. The model is equipped with an engine from a Rolls-Royce V6 Continental light aircraft with 300 horsepower. Characteristic features are a lowered frame, chrome plating and enlarged wheels. It’s difficult to say about the ease of movement on such a bike, but undoubtedly the sound of an aircraft engine with a large air intake and huge flow rate should please the ears of every motorcycle enthusiast.

TMC Dumont is a fantastic model with an aircraft engine

Legendary races on the Isle of Man

You don't buy an expensive motorcycle to gather dust in the garage. The most prestigious, oldest and most dangerous motorcycle race in the world is the Isle of Man TT (“Tourist Trophy Race”) on the British Isle of Man. Since 1907, owners of the fastest, most expensive and prestigious bikes have gathered here.

The Mountain Ring track is almost 61 km long and has 219 turns. The average speed of a pilot during racing is 200 km/h. The most common winners are BMW, Yamaha and Honda motorcycles.

It’s not for nothing that the race is considered the most dangerous - this “unique 40-mile test of nerves” took the lives of 257 racers.

The most famous motorcycle manufacturers

The concept of the motorcycle appeared almost simultaneously with the concept of the car at the end of the 19th century. The first two-wheeled vehicle was created by the German inventor Gottlieb Daimler, who later became the founder of the Mercedes-Benz company (in partnership with the equally famous Karl Benz).

The production of the first production motorcycle belongs to the brothers Heinrich and Wilhelm Hildebrand and their partner Alois Wolfmüller. German engineers and inventors launched the first mass production of a two-wheeled new product in 1894.

Since that time, the active development of the motorcycle owner movement began, which provoked the emergence of many successful manufacturers around the world:

• Ducati is an Italian company that dates back to 1926, but started producing two-wheelers after World War II. Today it is part of the Audi AG group and produces about 40 thousand motorcycles per year.
• BMW is a famous German company that released the first motorbike in 1923. Today, the models of this manufacturer are considered one of the most reliable among European suppliers.
• Harley-Davidson is a legendary American company with more than 100 years of history. Thanks to smart marketing, she managed to create a huge movement of fans of her brand.
• Honda is a Japanese company that launched the production of two-wheeled vehicles in 1955, and since 1982 began producing more than 3 million motorcycles annually. In 2021, the company sold 17 million motorbikes, earning a net profit of $15 billion (more than 1 trillion rubles!).
• Kawasaki is a Japanese manufacturer that began producing two-wheeled vehicles in 1961. Today it produces models of different classes, but the Ninja sportbike is considered the most famous.
• Yamaha - the motorcycle division was founded in 1955, the very first model of this manufacturer, the Yamaha YA-1, won a race at the foot of Mount Fuji. Today Yamaha is considered one of the leaders among manufacturers of road and sports motorcycles.
• Aprilia is an Italian company that appeared in 1968. Today the company produces scooters and motorcycles for on- and off-road use. Models from this company became champions in such legendary competitions as MotoGP and Superbike World Championship.
• Suzuki - the Japanese company released its first bike in 1952. Today, the company annually produces more than 3.2 million motorcycles of various classes, and the racing achievements of these models have become one of the most significant in the history of motorsports.
• KTM is an Austrian company founded in 1934. It gained worldwide fame thanks to the production of off-road motorcycles, but since 2010 it has been actively developing a range of sports and city motorcycles.
• Triumph is a British company opened in 1902. During its history, it has experienced unprecedented success and bankruptcy. In 1990 it was revived. Today the company produces models of various classes, but special preference is given to retro motorcycles.
• MV Agusta is an Italian manufacturer created in 1945. In post-war Europe, the main emphasis was on the production of popular budget class models. Gradually the brand gained recognition among motorcycle racers. Today, MV Agusta motorcycles are popular among both ordinary bikers and racing teams.
• "Ural" - a manufacturer from Russia, founded in 1941, began its activities with the release of the first model M-72, which was a copy of the German BMW R71 motorcycle. Today the company produces standard models “Retro Solo” and “Solo sT”, as well as models with a sidecar: “Ural-T”, “Tourist”, “Patrol 2WD”, Gear-UP and “Retro”. At the same time, only 3% of the produced equipment is sold in the CIS countries, the rest is sent abroad, since the manufacturer is quite popular in foreign markets.

Today, motorcycles are becoming increasingly popular on the city streets of Russia, Europe and Asia. This is the answer to many kilometers of traffic jams: now among the owners of high-speed and sometimes extremely expensive motorcycles there are not only men, but also women who masterfully master the art of motorcycle control.
