advantage over the series terhadulu 1098S series.One of the advantages is the presence of DTC Active devices.
This is the technology of the Ducati-called "Ducati Traction Control" is specifically used in mass production motorcycle in addition to the Ducati Desmosedici RR and the Ducati 1098R.
Another plus is the lighter weight of the 1098S series, closed to within 3 kg and of course a larger capacity motorcycle. The former only 1099cc motor and a new 1198.4 cc. Why Ducati did not all make the motor to 1,200 CC?
Power from the engine resulting from the "Ducati Testastretta Evoluzione L-Twin powerplant" has a greater power. If the previous series "only" produces 160Hp, so now the new motor has been increased to 170hp 1198S.
If you hear the one who had climbed up 1098S, reputedly could bikersnya goosebumps, well especially if you want jajal 1198S series? Tauk dark ah .. :-)
Speksifikasi & a comparison between the 1098S and 1198S
Ducati Traction ControlThe information is taken directly from the blog DDOCI (Ducati Desmo Owners Club Indonesia), explained that the DTC is similar to the facility traction control (traction control) that is in sports cars or European cars.
Traction Control facility for sports car known as ASR (Anti Slip Recovery System), but the difference in the cars used this feature to avoid a slip or skid car while crossing the street was slick with ice and grind the clay and even oil.
But at the Ducati 1198S Superbike, the device is functioning DTC membalans once synchronizes the rotational speed of the front vs. the rear tires. In this case the DTC can be in the set of the 8 levels of intervention, which at its lowest level then the level of DTC intervention was minimal.
Generally this option is used by racers "real" steering wheel so that the real effect can be maximized while minimizing the risk of losing grip on the rear tire. While the level of the most high 8 or DTC is very obvious interventions, this option is used to bulldoze the track slippery and wet in both circuit and street. Suitable for use by the "rider" to accelerate the timing as well as avoid the hi-side crashes!
Question: What is so riders still had time to tune-tune the DTC tool in the rate of 200 s / d 300km per hour? Especially in a state of the motor has been floated. Wow .. brake immediately if I wrote first mah .. :-) How does the Ducati 1198S prices in dollars?
Yapz, we just wait wrote presence. This is not gossip anymore, but the fact this bike is going into Indonesia in the near future.
