Ducati’s Superleggera V4 is the roadgoing equivalent of the maker's MotoGP Panigale V4. The carbon fiber and exotic metal combine to make a “leggera,” meaning “light” in Italian. The superlight, one-liter (998cc) bike weighs in at just a hair over 335 pounds, something unheard of in this size bike.
The lightweight version of Ducati’s Desmosedici Stradale R engine is the building block with which Tamiya starts construction. The detail and easy assembly of this incredible engine are second to none. All paint callouts reference Tamiya colors. The inclusion of the airbox and a cooling tube finish it off exquisitely.
