فرخ البنغالي
169 kg with 148 HP, the snack that you won’t feel bloated after !
The bike comes with all the gismos you’ll ever need, riding Modes, fully integrated ABS, Ducati Traction Control (DTC), Ducati Quick Shift (DQS), Engine Brake Control (EBC) and full Ride-by-Wire (RbW) throttle control with Ducati e-Grip.
The power to weight ratio is great, the rider will be able to go throttle happy without feeling guilty afterwords.
I feel this bike will do much better that the 848 which didn’t get amble time to prove it self locally, it might also do better than the 1199 which is hot, harsh and very track focused.
Conquering the soul !
A couple of years back when BMW launched the S1000RR no one expected that this bike will dominate the super bikes for that long, the RR is still by far the most powerful production bike on the market its even much more powerful than some 1300cc bikes. But for riders with a twin engine fetish, you’ll need much more than horse power to capture their attention, you need a bike with soul, a bike with a character, a bike with a history, a bike that makes riders reminisce.
I guess BMW doesn’t need me to tell them this, they were smart enough to figure it out them self’s. So they decided to recreate the BMW R 90 S and because they have a lot of money they didn’t bother going back to the drawing boards, they decided to ride on someones else back, someone rebellious, someone that can put some soul in the dead long dead R90S.

2013 Ducati Multistrada specs
The 2013 Multistrada got a lot of little tweaks here and there, but the most important addition to the 2013 Multistrada is the new semi-active Ducati Suspension (DSS), the DSS system uses an electric valve to control the damping of the suspension to give a comfier ride at any of the four riding modes -Sport, Touring, Urban or Enduro- without compromising the sport handling. The system monitors information from accelerometers, throttle, and the ABS to continually adjust the damping rate based on the riding mode.
ABS now comes in three modes to suit the four riding modes -Sport, Touring, Urban or Enduro- so the intervention can be increased or decreased according to the riding mode.
The engine got a 5% increase in torque at the peak of the torque curve, thanks to the repositioned injectors which now spray directly on the hot intake valve. The cylinder head is now Dual Spark −2 spark plugs per head- for a complete burn for a smother operation at low speeds.
The Best Just Got Better
Since 2008 the Suzuki Hayabusa hardly got any upgrades, most of the changes were cosmetic, come to think of it its not easy to enhance an a great bike like the Hayabusa. For the 2013 model, Suzuki decided to make the Hatabusa a safer bike by upgrading its break system to ABS and replacing the front calipers with high performance Brembo mono block calipers.
The bike also got a new Drive Mode Selector (S-DMS) that enable the rider to choose from 3 different engine maps on the fly directly from the handle bar. The bike still lack traction control which leaves the reader fully recpocible for his actions.
