This stunning custom 1198 SP, dubbed Matador Racer, is the latest work from Spanish builder Radical Ducati, packed to the gills with carbon fibre, innovative construction techniques and contemporary aesthetics. The bike receives a RAD 02 aluminium frame, sub-frame and swing-arm, along with numerous engine mods, including ported heads, lightened flywheel, EVR anti-hooping clutch and a 2 in 1 Super Mario exhaust system. The bellypan, mudguards and Corsa Evo solo seat are all constructed from carbon fibre.

There is an Öhlins front fork, RAD 02 ergal triple clamps yokes, Domino quick open gas throttle and RAD 02 ergal clip-ons at the front, as well as a Discacciati brake and clutch radial pump and Discacciati rotors taking care of retardation duties. At the rear, this custom 1198 SP features an Öhlins rear shock and Discacciati rear brake kit with a 200mm rotor and four-piston caliper.
