me likey and want!!!! Title: Re: COOL FrankenSBK Post by: webspoke on May 17, 2011, 06:37:54 AM Very nicely done, especially the 300lb. weight!
Title: Re: COOL FrankenSBK Post by: muskrat on May 17, 2011, 06:49:35 AM That's an SBK I'd line up for ASAP
Title: Re: COOL FrankenSBK Post by: Triple J on May 17, 2011, 07:30:28 AM Ducati needs to make this. Now!! [evil]
I doubt it really weighs 300 lbs though...maybe without oil, gas, and a battery. Title: Re: COOL FrankenSBK Post by: Heath on May 17, 2011, 07:57:06 AM maybe I missed it but what engine did they use and what did they bore it out to? Or do they just say 2v air cooled bored out a lot?

Or do they just say 2v air cooled bored out a lot? they built something from parts, 2v air/oil Title: Re: COOL FrankenSBK Post by: Buckethead on May 17, 2011, 08:04:35 AM As I understand it, it's an 848 lower end (with the deep sump), with a multistrada crank, hyper cams, titanium valves and con rods, high comp pistons (14:1 :o). They didn't say what, specifically, the jugs were from, just that they were bored out and re-sleeved for a total of 1176cc.
And yes, I'd make sweet, sweet, dirty, hot, smelly, nasty, tire-roasting love to that thing. Title: Re: COOL FrankenSBK Post by: arai_speed on May 17, 2011, 08:09:19 AM I'd hit it!

I want to see the direct side by side track shoot-out comparo to this machine.... Title: Re: COOL FrankenSBK Post by: thought on May 17, 2011, 08:35:20 AM dammit, i need to find a way to get a job at DNA. first, arrick's bike, and now this? haha

Title: Re: COOL FrankenSBK Post by: ducatiz on May 18, 2011, 03:08:21 PM There is little doubt the bike is over 300lbs. NCR's "new blue" bike is 316 lbs and only with a tonne of work using cudtom components, including lightening the heads and jugs ny hand, a Ti exhaust header and Mg wheels.
Title: Re: COOL FrankenSBK Post by: the_Journeyman on May 18, 2011, 06:04:58 PM That would be so much fun on these tight & twisty mountain roads!!!!! I volunteer for testing!
JM Title: Re: COOL FrankenSBK Post by: rideserotta on May 18, 2011, 06:23:56 PM Every time a bike like this is made everyone drools. Why don't Ducati make a similar limited edition bike like this to sell? Great marketing and they would absolutely sell out.

NCR's "new blue" bike is 316 lbs and only with a tonne of work using cudtom components, including lightening the heads and jugs ny hand, a Ti exhaust header and Mg wheels. I dunno man, weve got a 916 frame with a multi engine in it that weighs right around 315 and it hasnt got nearly as trick stuff going on. Title: Re: COOL FrankenSBK Post by: Raux on May 18, 2011, 11:30:29 PM I have a feeling the new SS is a real possibility now
Title: Re: COOL FrankenSBK Post by: DRKWNG on May 21, 2011, 03:43:29 AM I dunno man, we've got a 916 frame with a multi engine in it that weighs right around 315 and it hasnt got nearly as trick stuff going on. NCR's Hailwood Replica is right at the 300 lb mark (I assume dry) and it's got all the light-weight goodies on it. The only thing left to do on that bike is slap on some Braketech CMC rotors. http://www.ncrfactory.com/eng/html/21.01.shtml (http://www.ncrfactory.com/eng/html/21.01.shtml) Just sayin' I have a feeling the new SS is a real possibility now I hope so.

Id trade it for that thing (if it really is 300 pounds) Title: Re: COOL FrankenSBK Post by: DRKWNG on May 21, 2011, 06:25:16 AM The t9 is just a bike, man. Its not like I'm riding Jesus to the rapture. Id trade it for that thing (if it really is 300 pounds) You could always buy the NCR.

Title: Re: COOL FrankenSBK Post by: ducatiz on May 21, 2011, 10:09:10 AM I dunno man, weve got a 916 frame with a multi engine in it that weighs right around 315 and it hasnt got nearly as trick stuff going on. add the forks and tires and tank and see what it weights.. oh, and put the crankshaft and rods back in the engine too [evil] Title: Re: COOL FrankenSBK Post by: TAftonomos on May 21, 2011, 04:29:07 PM Sweet build. 14:1 static, no wonder they got all that power from it!
Title: Re: COOL FrankenSBK Post by: xcaptainxbloodx on May 21, 2011, 06:57:40 PM add the forks and tires and tank and see what it weights.. oh, and put the crankshaft and rods back in the engine too [evil] its 315 wet. 317 tops."we" (in quotes because I wasnt there at the time) also put together this little beauty. http://www.bikeexif.com/ducati-1000ds (http://www.bikeexif.com/ducati-1000ds) Title: Re: COOL FrankenSBK Post by: Ratfink749 on May 22, 2011, 09:19:23 AM Sweet build. 14:1 static, no wonder they got all that power from it! And I bet the race gas makes it smell as purdy as it looks!Title: Re: COOL FrankenSBK Post by: Monsterlover on May 22, 2011, 09:23:04 AM God I love the smell of race gas
Title: Re: COOL FrankenSBK Post by: Triple J on May 22, 2011, 03:06:50 PM its 315 wet. 317 tops. "we" (in quotes because I wasnt there at the time) also put together this little beauty. http://www.bikeexif.com/ducati-1000ds (http://www.bikeexif.com/ducati-1000ds) That's impressive considering 4 gallons of gas is 24 lbs, and 4 quarts of oil is about 8 lbs. You gotta forgive us if we're skeptical of a 285 lb dry weight (including the battery). That's lighter than both the NCR bikes, and the Pierobon F042. Very impressive if true. Post some pictures!! The streetfighter is very cool. [thumbsup] Title: Re: COOL FrankenSBK Post by: xcaptainxbloodx on May 22, 2011, 04:40:11 PM That's impressive considering 4 gallons of gas is 24 lbs, and 4 quarts of oil is about 8 lbs.

The streetfighter is very cool. [thumbsup] ill talk to AJ (the guy that built it) on tuesday and see what the exact numbers are. its offsite right now so no pics, its not much to look at anyway. its never been painted and its bin down once or twice. thats no streetfighter though, thats a trackfighter [cheeky] Title: Re: COOL FrankenSBK Post by: TAftonomos on May 22, 2011, 06:04:03 PM add the forks and tires and tank and see what it weights.. oh, and put the crankshaft and rods back in the engine too [evil] LMAO...nothin but a multi motor in a "916 frame"....oops, forgot to mention it's made from Titanium, along with the exhaust :D The "trackfighter" is awesome!

Title: Re: COOL FrankenSBK Post by: zooom on May 25, 2011, 03:25:46 AM I would love to see exactly how a bike like that weighs 300 pounds. My 1000SS track bike with no street equipment at all, Yoyodine fairing stay, Ducati Kaemna 1/4 fairing, ETI-Fuelcel Sprint carbon-kevlar tank, BST carbon fiber wheels, Sharkskinz 916 race tail, Speed Cell battery, and DucPond single silencer undertail custom race exhaust with DucPond lightened rear rotor, Woodcraft CFM rearsets and clip-ons, weighs 347 pounds on a certified scale on board. The only places left for me to save weight are with the 916 mono aluminum subframe I have for it, and internal engine lightening mods. That may total 17 additional pounds of savings, to get it down to 330 pounds. Maybe. I think part of the key detail is the weight of a frame to begin with, and some of these exotic Ti frames are where they start to get more of that off Tim....but I am speculating of course...granted, the O.P. bike isn't one of those frames, but the Pierobon ones are and the Ti-Fighter is... I don't know..I also don't know how much any of these frames weight by themselves in comparison...

The streetfighter is very cool. [thumbsup] talked to the man behind the bike and it is a 748 frame with a built multi DS1000 engine. it weighs 325lbs wet. apologies for my make the beast with two backsed up memory. Title: Re: COOL FrankenSBK Post by: Raux on May 27, 2011, 10:33:07 PM I think if you really wanted to get under 300 wet, you'd have to go with a Ti frame and one of the new Evo 1100 motors with the new lightweight castings, tons of Magnesium and CF.
would love to see what a no holds build could do with that kind of material. enter dream sequence ~~~~~~ Ti SBK frame mainframe 1100Evo motor bumped to 1200 with HC pistons TI rods, Ti Valves lightened Crank, lighten flywheel, etc internally. Mag side cases Mag swingarm BCT rims CF bodywork including rear selfsupporting eliminating Al subframe Ti exhaust CMC brakes Ohlins forks Ohlins rear shock Mag front light holder Al or CF tank CF airbox modified for 1100 motor misc CF parts Title: Re: COOL FrankenSBK Post by: Triple J on May 29, 2011, 07:16:59 AM talked to the man behind the bike and it is a 748 frame with a built multi DS1000 engine. it weighs 325lbs wet. apologies for my make the beast with two backsed up memory. Still impressive. My race prepped 748 with OZ wheels is 400 wet. Dropping another 75 would be tough...but would make me very happy! [evil]Title: Re: COOL FrankenSBK Post by: Monsterlover on May 29, 2011, 07:23:59 AM As I recall the ARC frames were about 6 pounds vs 30ish? Ti swinger would help too along with every fastener on the bike.
Light weight is expensive. Lightest weight is muey expensivo ;D Title: Re: COOL FrankenSBK Post by: Randy@StradaFab on May 29, 2011, 07:35:07 AM I'm building a Ti frame for an 07 S4RS, the stock frame is around 28lbs. Not quite done with the Ti frame, but it is going to end up around 12-13 lbs.

Title: Re: COOL FrankenSBK Post by: Raux on May 29, 2011, 01:02:05 PM or you could go lighter
