I relied on statement by Ducati Aruba saying they were gonna let him test the sbk machine. Disclaimer needed badly....

Interesting either way. A season of data in SSTK will hopefully put the V4 SBK machine at the front at the start of the 2019 season.

Off topic: Where in Hungary are you?
 
Take a look here. Interesting article and much better pictures. Wish we could upload directly to the forum. Is admin EVER going to sort this out. It's the single most annoying aspect of this software platform. On the UK forum you just click a button and upload any pics directly into your thread. How can it be this difficult? If you cant be arsed to read the link, look here:

It literally could not be easier to upload photos to this website.

Sorry guys I might be a bit naive on this question. Are these guys using a different cylinder size to get the bike in the 1000cc? Or are they using the street bike motor. Reason I ask is I see the cases have a SBK number on them. Thank you in advance.

Oh btw I thought Ducati was going with a traditional swingarm on the new V4. Interesting that I am seeing a single sided swingarm.
 
My issue are the stupid size constraints of photos allowed. It's not always easy on a cell phone to save the images as a smaller size

Fair enough--on mobile I would have no idea how to upload. Can't stand internet browsing on mobile and I hate forum apps, but on a computer it's very simple.
 
The Panigale V4 1103cc "street" bike has the same bore as the MotoGP engine, just longer stroke to pump up the displacement and add torque. I'm reasonably certain that the R engine will just have the original stroke of the MotoGP engine to bring the displacement back down below 1000cc, it will have a little less torque through the mid range but will rev higher and have similar peak HP. In race trim this is going to be a stomping ripping beast!
 
My question is whether there's any chance of the version of the Akra system shown in these pictures being available in the mainstream? Read: Not as a 15k Corse part.

Looks better than the other system, doesn't have that rear tire overlap that probably doesn't impact track-side tire changes but is something to be mindful of, and looks like it might cooperate with a traditional belly-pan more readily.

I'm well aware how to upload them having been on this forum for several years. The problem is the paltry size allowance, so you end up being limited to uploading an image that requires a microscope to view it or have to upload it via Tapatalk or host it on another server. Way too much hassle. As mentioned, on the UK site you simply select any image you want size regardless, upload and it's injected straight into the thread. Less than three keystrokes and no restriction on size. The software that runs this forum is now quite dated by comparison.
