Ducati 999R Xerox

Ducati 999R Xerox

The Ducati 999R Xerox road bike is a special replica of the ultimate Ducati competition superbike.  The differences between the racing bike and the road bike almost disappear as the technology and style transfers to the road, giving its rider the same feeling of speed and thrills as Ducati Corse's superstars do on a race track.

And you can be guaranteed of the same efficiency, power and protection as the racing bike, because the Ducati 999R Xerox is filled with Shell Advance motorcycle oil from the very first time it explodes into life at the factory in Bologna.  Shell's dedicated motorcycle oil is the only product that Ducati trusts to provide responsiveness and reliability to every one of its motorcycles.  This trust comes from a mutual respect developed through the two companies' long term technical partnership that extends beyond the track to allow everyday riders to gain more response from their bikes.

The Ducati 999R Xerox achieves its lightweight through the extensive use of magnesium components and a carbon fibre casing. It also has titanium valve collets, 12-hole racing injectors, magnesium head covers, carbon fibre covers for the timing belts with a built-in ventilation system, and a carbon fibre heat shield for the silencer. The shape of the bike is the result of Ducati's experience gained through the highly competitive environment of World Superbike racing - ensuring the optimal aerodynamic shape.

Its lightness, combined with the V-twin Testastretta engine delivering 150hp at 9,750 rpm, make the 999R Xerox one of the fastest road legal Ducatis ever made. More than just power and good looks, every one of these bike denotes its exclusivity with a numbered silver plate on the top triple clamp, and is accompanied by a plaque of authenticity.

The jaw-dropping engine performance is supported by a first-class chassis set up, specifically developed to deliver top results on the track: adjustable headstock rake, box-sectioned aluminium alloy rear swing arm (a perfect copy of the 999R Factory race bike), radial-mounted front brake callipers, forged and machined wheel rims and fully adjustable Ohlin's suspension.

The Xerox branded racing bike replica is also available with a full 'racing kit' that enhances the Testastretta engine, making the bike even more desirable.  It includes a 102 dB Termignoni exhaust and a special electronic control unit.   When added, these extras result in a further improvement to engine performance and a weight loss of 3 kg (6.6 lbs).

The Ducati 999R Xerox is the closest a road rider will get to the emotions felt by Troy Bayliss and Lorenzo Lanzi as they compete on the race tracks of the world.  Ducati's history of excellence in the World Superbike Championship and Shell's reputation for top quality Shell Advance oil make this bike a dream for riders and a nightmare for the competition.
