It varies from a set of carbon wings to a complete titanium exhaust assembly, which enhances the character of the vehicle.
Starting from the aforementioned set of carbon wings, this is made up of four structural carbon fiber elements. They are offshoots that highlight the aesthetics and performance of the vehicle, considering profiles defined in the wind tunnel.
Among the elements indicated there are also several cover: that carbon tank, that dry clutch and that passenger seat. The first figure at the front of the tank, enhancing the already well-known sporty appearance. The second is functional for ventilation of the dry clutch when using the motorbike on the track, also highlighting the peculiar sound. A further element aligned with the aesthetics of the model thanks to the use of carbon fibre. Therefore the cover covering the passenger seat is developed in plastic material, with an essential appearance integrated into the single-seater vision.
Among the items listed also a billet aluminum fuel cap. An element that links the manufacturer's design and Rizoma's experience, preserving the original appearance over time through anodization. There is also an anti-tampering system supplied with the appropriate key.
Peculiar then knobs created taking inspiration from the competition scene and designed to promote appropriate grip while riding, also taking into account the attenuation of vibrations.
Moving on to Driver's footrests in anodized aluminium, are developed thanks to the knowledge base of Ducati Corse and the production quality of Rizoma. They are adjustable in 5 positions, allowing you to optimize the driving position. They feature articulated brake and gear pedals to limit the risk of damage in the event of a slide, with the use of the standard DQS configured as a traditional or reverse/racing gearbox, according to the information.

From a technical point of view, the dry clutch kit. An STM EVO-SBK dry clutch, developed from billet aluminum with bell and 48 tooth disc pack.

Among the peculiarities of this solution are an anti-hopping function even during the most demanding climbs and fluidity in the off-throttle phases. Also highlighted is the opportunity to customize the level of mechanical engine braking by opting for a different secondary spring from those proposed. To adopt the dry clutch kit, the necessary purchase of the detachable magnesium alloy clutch cover is specified.
They also indicate gods circles derived from Superbike in magnesium with nine-spoke racing design. They are approved for single-seater use.

Accompanying this is a mapping with adaptation of the DTC – DWC – DPL and Slide on demand parameters based on the new performances. Going back to the indications: a 6% increase in overall power and at medium speeds, and the same percentage for Nm of overall torque and at medium speeds.
