A double for Johnny

As much as race 1 was a bore, race 2 was amusing…Rea on the Honda took the pole in both races and was fast as rocket and steady as a train.

Corser on the BMW led both races for a while but no one could find a way around Rea, it was not a good race for Ducati as Fabrizio fell in race one and Haga had a technical problem that made him quit race 2.

The Aprilia rider Leon Camier was doing well until he took a bad fall in race 2.

Ducati Profumo

April 22, 2010 by · Leave a Comment
 

Two years ago Ducati presented Desmorosso the Ducati wine,  in 2006 Ducati designed the bottle of the Z ZEGNA perfume for Ermenegildo Zegna, and now Ducati launches its first male perfume.

Ducati presents its first male fragrance, masterfully formulated by renowned perfume producer Morris Profumi. Characterised with the main ingredients of ‘design’, ‘style’ and ‘excellence’ infused into the ‘mix’, the new Ducati-labelled fragrance is specially designed for those who are motorcyclists at heart, who love freedom and a life lived passionately without limits.

Ducati Fragrance for Men symbolises a motorcycling success story that has become legendary. As if encapsulating an expression of Ducati’s DNA within its first fragrance, the mix hints of the natural and technological and suggests a refined interpretation of modern masculinity and natural charisma. The bottle design, in typical Ducati style, is sophisticated and yet without ostentation.

From the creative genius of Thierry de Baschmakoff, founder of Aesthete, comes the symbol of Ducati’s essence. The modern style bottle with a compact form draws direct parallels to the stunning design with which Ducati motorcycles stand out from the rest. Refined, metal-like surfaces gleam and alternate with others brushed and opaque, while the cap, essential and asymmetric, blends both circle and ellipse as if tracing the dynamic movement of engine internals.

The fragrance itself has been formulated by the ‘nose’ of Symrise, Emilie Coppermann, blending the naturaland contrasting aspects of bergamot, grapefruit, juniper, fig leaf, nutmeg, vetiver, wood and musk, isolating the very best of the green, citrus and woody olfactory fragrances.

Man, his fragrance and his motorcycle in absolute harmony, enhancing the Ducati lifestyle to perfection. The line includes Eau de Toilette, aftershave and deodorant.

The new middleweight Monster

April 20, 2010 by · 1 Comment
 

Its official, we have a new member in the Monster family, the 796 Monster….it has the same 803cc engine of the 2010 Hypermotard 796 and its called the Desmodue.

The Desmodue or the Desmo 2 in English is a completely brand new lightweight engine designed to provide the torquey, smooth and enjoyable character of  the L-Twins.

I always thought that the 696 is under powered and the 1100 is overpowered, but now i believe Ducati got the recipe just right with the 796, the bike comes in 13 different color schemes and optional ABS.

Complete specs.
