Ducati Bikes: Italy’s famous bike manufacturer Ducati has presented the first glimpse of the new Superleggera V4 Centenario on the occasion of its 100th anniversary. This is a very exclusive superbike, of which only 500 units will be made worldwide, while an additional 100 units will be available in a special tricolor finish. It has been introduced in Bologna and is based on the 7th-generation superbike platform.
Powerful engine and performance
This superbike has a 1,103cc Desmosedici Stradale R V4 engine, which generates power of 228 bhp at 14,500 rpm and torque of 117 Nm at 10,500 rpm. Whereas, in racing setup (with Akrapovic exhaust) its power reaches 247 bhp and torque reaches 126.2 Nm. The weight of the engine has also been reduced by using lightweight materials like titanium and tungsten, which further improves the performance.
Light weight and carbon fiber body
The chassis, subframe and wheels of this bike are completely made of carbon fiber, in which technology inspired by MotoGP and Formula 1 has been used. Its on-road weight is 173 kg (dry), which reduces to 167 kg with the racing kit. The lightweight frame and swingarm give it excellent speed and balance on the track.
World-first technology in brakes and suspension
It is the world’s first road-legal bike to feature carbon-ceramic brake discs, manufactured by Brembo. 340 mm discs are lighter and more efficient. At the same time, Ohlins’ carbon forks and TTX36 GP shock absorbers give it excellent control and stability.
Smart riding features
The Centenario edition gets advanced features like traction control, cornering ABS, wheelie control, slide control and power launch. Its new ‘Dynamic Engine Brake’ system automatically adjusts braking like professional racers.
Delivery and Exclusive Benefits
This superbike will be delivered in a premium wooden crate. Along with this, accessories like certificate, cover and paddock stand will be available. The special thing is that the first 26 customers will get a chance to drive the Desmosedici GP26 at the MotoGP Experience on 6-7 July 2026.
Superleggera V4 Centenario is not just a bike but a perfect blend of performance, technology and exclusivity.
