Photo Gallery: 2008 Ducati 848
A Slimmed-Down, Smaller-Engined Iteration of the 1098

From Basem Wasef, About.com

If the $15,995 Ducati 1098 or $20,995 Ducati 1098S is too rich for your blood, take a look at the $13,495 Ducati 848. Boasting the same sexy bodywork as its big-engined brother, the 848 features:

  • An 849cc L-twin that produces 134 horsepower and 70.8 lb-ft of torque
  • A dry weight of 370 lbs (which is 11 lbs lighter than the 1098)
  • Radially mounted, 4-piston 320mm Brembo front brakes
  • A fully adjustable Showa 43 mm inverted fork
  • MotoGP-derived instrumentation.
  • Lightweight 2-1-2 underseat exhaust with stainless steel mufflers

Though it lacks the outrageous oomph of the 1098, the 848's agility and light weight make it a compelling alternative.
