DUCATI916 1994 - 1995

　　The Ducati 916 was a fully faired sports bike manufactured by Ducati from 1994 to 1998. The bike was fitted with a 916cc Fuel-injected liquid-cooled V-twin engine held by a Trellis frame with a single-sided swingarm and a USD fork.

　　The Ducati 916 was designed by Massimo Tamburini, Sergio Robbiano, along with his team at the Cagiva Research Center in San Marino. The bike's engine was a revision of its Ducati 888 predecessor, with a larger displacement and a new engine management system.

　　Compared to the Ducati 888, the 916 version was smaller and packed a chrome-moly Trellis frame that was also shared with the Ducati 748 in 1995 and beyond. The frame was combined with a new bodywork that offered aggressive lines.

　　In the visual department, the 1994 Ducati 916 was fitted with standard features, such as a full fairing with a small windscreen, a dual headlight system, a single seat, a dual exhaust system mounted under the seat, a single-sided swingarm, and three-spoke lightweight wheels.

　　Underneath its fuel tank was a 916cc four-stroke liquid-cooled V-twin engine with an Electronic Fuel Injection (EFI) system, boasting 109 hp with a peak force at 9,000 rpm and 89 Nm (66 lb-ft) torque at 7,000 rpm.

　　The engine was coupled to a six-speed manual transmission with a hydraulically controlled dry multi-plate clutch and a final chain drive, spinning the rear wheel with a top speed of 255 kph (159 mph).
