Coming in Titanium Grey for the 2019 riding season
is the Ducati SuperSport. Currently retailing in Malaysia at RM 76,320
without GST – the SuperSport S with Ohlins suspension and performance parts is
priced at RM 83,867 – the SuperSport sees the demise of the Ducati Red paintjob
from the base model.
The SuperSport S will continue to be
available in Ducati Red and Starsilk White. The new Titanium Grey paint comes
in a matte coat and is complemented by the frame and wheels finished in red.
Carrying the Testrastretta 11 V-twin, the SuperSport
produces 110 hp at 9,000 rpm and 93 Nm of torque at 6,500 rpm from 937 cc. The
ride-by-wire engine is fuelled by twin Mikuni throttle bodies, with power
getting to the ground via a six-speed gearbox.
Marzocchi and Sachs provide suspension front and
rear, respectively, with 43 mm diameter upside-down forks and adjustable
monoshock for the base model, with the ‘S’ getting Ohlins units. Braking is
with radially-mounted Brembo M4-32 Monobloc callipers grabbing 320 mm brake
discs.
With fuel carried inside a 16-litre tank, the
SuperSport is claimed to weigh 210 kg wet and seat height is 810 mm. Ducati
Performance provides a range of performance accessories including Akrapovic
exhaust, titanium racing exhaust, Ohlins steering damper and Bluetooth module
for the Ducati Multimedia System.
