The Black Dogo




Taking to cue from the motion Americans from Dirt-Track of years 70 and 80 and from their spectacular race on sterrato, with the attendance of Simone Falcetta, designer specialistic, and with the technological ability to NCR - Poggipolini, the most prestigious workshop than motorcycle preparations Italian, Ennio Capasa has redesigned and made the most powerful its of the Ducati Monster: the S4RS Testastretta. Following an inverse process to that one of the Motard, the designer has adapted to sterrato one born motion for the road. She has invented the motion for the ideal travel There N' C: "off the beaten track", always ready to take roads never battered.

The Black Dogo is, like the mastiff Argentine from which it has taken to name and style, powerful sinuosa and; it polishes and tenacious. The frontalino front it is short and aggressive, that posterior one emphasizes the linearity of the profile of the motion and the curved and short mudguard. Stock-pots and saddleback are short and compact. The copriserbatoio of elephant skin it has stringhe elastic portaoggetti of new conception. The retrovisori have been replaced from one television camera and the plancia of the instruments from a monitor: technological solution up to now never adopted on one motion.

To the contrary of the dogo, always white man, the Ducati N' C of Ennio Capasa is all black one and of metal There. The auto body is rubberized black opaque and vellutata to the tact. The black chassis I polish. The black and opaque beacons. The motor partially painted I polish. The copriserbatoio in elephant skin it is black. "I have always loved the motion and the Ducati in particular, for this we have begun to work entirety not as soon as N' C is born There", Ennio Capasa has declared. "Then, for passion, I have begun to attend the workshops more and more assiduously where the Ducati plans and constructs its motion. I have begun to follow the job of the planners, to observe is made of the production... To think next to a Ducati N' C has become nearly unavoidable There.

A plan that I have lived like true challenge and as I privilege. The industrial design always has been to the center of my interests and creed looks at from what I make. The Black Dogo is the technological and futurist version of the motion that I have always intentional. From road and cross-country vehicle, from city and travel, aggressive, but docile... The motion that I will guide in the next few years ". "and a great pleasure and an honor that a creative to the level of Ennio Capasa has been inspired to our Monster S4RS - have commented Federico Minoli, President and General executive manager Ducati -" and a testimony of the passion and the creativity that continuous Ducati to inspire, stimulating also the universe of the fashion and the design."

Truly magnificent...reminds me of the bikes the boys at matte black put together. It's like a cross between Giger and Mad Max. I only hope that my Cafe Racer Ducati Monster turns out looking half as cool as this beast!
