NCR
Millona M16
Based
in Bologna, Italy, NCR are a premium motorcycle tuner who specialize in
creating high performance bikes based on Ducati models.
The
NCR Millona M16 uses a Ducati Desmosedici RR as its starting point. From there
NCR add their own fast bits which raise the performance and reduce the overall
weight by a considerable 26 kgs (58 lbs).
The
NCR Millona M16 features a carbon fiber frame which is specially designed by
NCR. Into this the race-derived 1.0-litre V4 engine is fitted. This unit
benefits from some some tweaks by NCR and a full titanium exhaust. The NCR
CORSE racing slipper clutch is combined with a lightened 6-speed gearbox. With
this setup the NCR Millona M16 is able to offer up an immense 200 horsepower at
the rear wheel.
The
chassis of the bike is complimented by a top-shelf suspension system which
comprises of Ohlins units front and back. Up front are 43 mm forks with
adjustable offset, and at the rear an adjustable Ohlins TTX monoshock is used.
To keep the unsprung weight down the Millona M16 is fitted with carbon fiber
wheels from NCR. Front and rear brakes both feature ceramic composite discs and
Brembo calipers.
Stylewise
the NCR Millona M16 is stripped down and all the lower fairings are done away
with to show off that fabulous engine. NCR offer the bike in a variety of their
own color combinations and designs. Or if you'd prefer, they'll paint it up in
any scheme you specify.
