MARCH 2018|PERFORMANCEBIKES.CO.UK 13SUBSCRIBE NOW SPECIAL OFFER PAGE 57Moto Corse build ditches the
Brembo M50 monoblocks for
GP4RX calipers, plus Alth
discs front and rear.forks in Moto Corse’s own machined
aluminium yokes hang out up front,
and a shock from the men in gold
matches up at the rear. Standard
Brembo M50 calipers are replaced by
visually similar, internally superior
GP4RX race stoppers biting on discs
from Alth, who also supply a floating
effort for the rear.
Wheels are BST carbon, with a
whopping 17 x 8.5in rear. The front
carries a Supercorsa SP1 to raise front
grip a little closer to the excess offered
by the 240-section Rosso II rear. A
knock-off wheel nut is a needless
(but cool) finishing touch).
Engine-wise, a set of Moto Corse’s
own teardrop silencers shave 6.8kg
from low down to further the change
in attitude. Extra, traditional Ducati
soundtrack is added with an STM dry
slipper clutch conversion.
Moto Corse will sell a complete bike,
or the parts to build one: a price for
this latest version is TBC, but a
previous iteration came to the best
part of £50,000 ready to go (albeit in
Japan). Expect a similar bill if you
want every single top-spec trinket
fitted to the show bike, or to be
sending upwards of £25k to Japan for
a parcel full of bits for your bike.
