Ducati 999 - cafe racer - Steffano Cafe9 – A Modern Cafe Racer Based on Ducati 999

Steffano Cafe9 – A Modern Cafe Racer Based on Ducati, The Café9 is a Cafe Racer based on Ducati 999 superbike, the Café9 uses a water-cooled, DOHC Ducati V-Twin producing 150 crank horsepower and a hefty 80 ft-lbs of torque (claimed). The torque should help the bike excel in daily riding, and Steffano claims the Café9 weighs an incredible 375lbs. The rider sits on an exotic sting-ray hide seat, protected from the wind by the Aerospace-grade carbon fiber bodywork with an updated twist on the classic Cafe Racer style. Super-lightweight 20-spoke forged wheels put the power to the ground, and the rider’s inputs are transmitted through fully adjustable controls (footrests, levers, handlebars). The Ducati V-Twin’s mainly black components are highlighted by numerous red-anodized lightweight aluminum items, color-matched with the blood-red tank and bodywork. The Cafe Racer final styling detail is particularly unique – the silencer box is integrated into the shape of the tail unit, and features a single oval outlet on each side
