DUCATI916 Senna II 1998 - 1999

　　In December 1994, at the Bologna Motor Show, the Italian motorcycle manufacturer introduced the Ducati 916 Senna, a special edition sport machine that commemorates Formula One World Champion Ayrton Senna, a Ducati enthusiast that lost the battle with life in May 1994.

　　Ducati's owner, Claudio Castiglioni, was a personal friend of Senna, and several months after its death, he released the first Ducati 916 Senna. The Italian maker released three special edition Senna machines in 1995, 1998, and 2001.

　　In 1998, the manufacturer launched the second model of the Ducati 916 Senna, a sports motorcycle that came in a new grey paint scheme as opposed to the previous embodiment.

　　In other departments, the bike was identical to the first model, still combining the Ducati 916 engine with the 916SP chassis, which resulted in one of the most exciting machines in the 1998 Ducati range.

　　The bike packed standard features in the appearance department, such as a full fairing with a dual headlight system, a small windscreen, a single seat, a dual exhaust system mounted under the seat, and lightweight three-spoke wheels.

　　In the performance department, the 1998 Ducati 916 Senna II took its muscles from a 916cc four-stroke V-twin liquid-cooled engine, managed by an electronically controlled fuel injection system, delivering an output power of 109 hp with a peak force at 9,000 rpm and 89 Nm (66 lb-ft) torque at 7,000 rpm.
