But the engine is not the only thing that has been refined. The “EVO” treatment enhanced the braking power of Brembo’s monobloc brake technology. In addition to the traditional Ducati red color skin with red frame and black wheels, the model is also available in a new “dark stealth” with racing black frame and black wheels. The 2011 EVO weights only 168kg and customers that are interesting in purchasing it can place their orders starting from today, July 20th, 2010. “In pursuit of perfection, Ducati engineers have listened to passionate owners of the 848 Superbike since its delivery in 2008 and now enhance its specifications to deliver impressive performances whether riding through mid-town traffic or racing through track-day competition,” a company statement reads.
