The DB7 Oronero superbike....
Quote:
....the world's first production motorcycle with a structural carbon fiber chassis resulting in a weight savings of over 15 pounds from the already featherweight 375-pound standard DB7. The Oronero chassis are manufactured at the rate of one per week. The same treatment has been carried out on the 525mm-long swingarm.
Claimed, 164 horsepower at 10,200 rpm. The bike that has the same overall character as the Ducati 1098 it's related to engine-wise, but feels quite different in so many little ways. From the more comfortable riding position, to the deeper, more sonorous, exhaust note from the single Zard titanium-wrap silencer. The Oronero DB7 feels light and agile, flicking from side to side much easier than any desmo V-twin yet made.
