SBK, Aragon: Bautista sports a MotoGP-style fork on the Ducati V4!

The latest evolution brought to the track by the Rossa is softer than the traditional one, while it still maintains the same resistance in up and down movements

SBK: Aragon: Bautista sports a MotoGP-style fork on the Ducati V4!

 On this second and final day of testing in Aragon, Ducati was full of innovations. Alvaro Bautista boasted the constructor’s latest evolution: a fork for the front developed by Ohlins. The reigning World Champion got the chance to test it on his own Panigale V4 on Wednesday.

This innovation, inspired by the MotoGP, is softer than the traditional fork when it moves from side to side, but it maintains the same resistance in up and down movements.

Now we’ll just have to wait and see see if they’ll actually use it during the rest of the season or if they’ll wait until  2024 to sport it.
