Technical Overview
2013 Ducati 848 EVO Technical Analysis & Specification Breakdown
At the heart of the 2013 Ducati 848 EVO sport motorcycle, Ducati pairs a 849.4 cc (51.8 cu in) liquid-cooled v2, four-stroke architecture with road-focused gearing. In factory specification, peak output is rated at 138.1 HP (100.8 kW) at 10,500 rpm while maximum torque reaches 98 Nm (72.3 lb-ft) at 9,750 rpm, transferring power to the rear wheel through a 6-speed gearbox and chain final drive. With a specific output of 162.6 HP per liter and a 750 rpm working window between peak torque (9,750 rpm) and peak power (10,500 rpm), the engine character is placing it firmly in high-revving supersport territory where top-end breathing dominates.
On the scales, the 848 EVO measures 194 kg (428 lbs) wet (curb), translating to a power-to-weight ratio of 0.71 HP/kg (1.4 kg per horsepower). Rider ergonomics and chassis geometry center around a 830 mm (32.7 in) seat height — resulting in a taller command-style riding posture suited to medium-to-tall inseams, combined with a 1,430 mm (56.3 in) wheelbase engineered for balanced agility and highway composure. The 15.5-liter (4.1 US gal) fuel tank supports practical everyday commuting and weekend road stints.
