DUCATI Reveals its First SuperSport Together with New Models for 2017

“SuperSport” finally opened to the public!

On the eve of INTERMOT 2016, one of the largest motorcycle-shows in the world to be held in Cologne (Germany) from 5 to 9 October, Ducati will be previewing some of the latest developments for 2017 and has confirmed that the eagerly awaited SuperSport will be on show.

The unveiling of this latest Ducati bike, scheduled to take place on the Ducati stand (Hall 8, Stand A42/50) at 6 pm on Tuesday 4 October, ends the special press-only day of this key international motorcycle exhibition.

After giving all the Ducatisti and motorcycle enthusiasts at WDW2016 (World Ducati Week) an exclusive look at the SuperSport, the new sport road bike is now ready for a wider audience.

The following is from the press release.

The SuperSport is the perfect sport bike for the every day roads. It’s designed for the everyday roads having in mind the track, to transform every riding occasion into a personal track-day session. The SuperSport makes any rider a sport rider, anytime and anywhere.

This new model drawing a great response and expectations before the debut has aroused enthusiasm among many motorcyclists. SuperSport will top the list of this show at INTERMOT.

INTERMOT also provides a great opportunity to enjoy an international preview of other aspects of the Ducati 2017 range, such as the stylish “Volcano Grey” color on the Multistrada 1200 S. More than just new color schemes, there will be appealing, practical technical upgrades: for 2017 the Multistrada 1200 family features a new airbox in the intake zone and new engine calibration; these changes give the twin-cylinder Testastretta DVT even fuller, more satisfying mid-range power delivery. The new video footage is on the web (www.ducati.co.jp).

At INTERMOT Ducati will also be presenting the new EURO 4 engines for the Monster 821 and Diavel. The Monster 821 range, moreover, now features the appealing yet assertive “Dust Grey” color, an opaque grey of outstanding freshness and flair that perfectly matches the red frame and wheels.

Major upgrades have also been made to the Ducati Superbike family, which, on the 1299 Panigale and 1299 Panigale S, sees the introduction of the latest EVO version of Ducati Traction Control (DTC) and Ducati Wheelie Control (DWC).

These systems, first seen on the exclusive 1299 Panigale S Anniversario (not sold in Japan yet), maximize the performance and active safety of this Ducati Superbike. The new DTC and DWC EVO feature a new algorithm that makes their intervention faster and more precise.

At INTERMOT Ducati will be in Hall 8 on Stand A42/50, together with Ducati Scrambler and its “Land of Joy”, where events, entertainment and plenty of bikes, accessories and apparel will ensure visitors to this great biannual bike show get involved and have fun.
