Positioned in Ducati's sport touring motorcycle lineup, the 2007 Ducati ST3 relies on a 992 cc (60.5 cu in) liquid-cooled v2, four-stroke powerplant. In factory specification, peak output is rated at 105.7 HP (77.1 kW) at 8,750 rpm while maximum torque reaches 98.1 Nm (72.4 lb-ft) at 10,000 rpm, transferring power to the rear wheel through a 6-speed gearbox and chain final drive. With a specific output of 106.6 HP per liter, the engine character is reflecting a performance-oriented street tune that balances strong mid-range pull with an energetic top-end rush.
On the scales, the ST3 measures 201 kg (443 lbs) dry, translating to a power-to-weight ratio of 0.53 HP/kg (1.9 kg per horsepower). Rider ergonomics and chassis geometry center around a 820 mm (32.3 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 21-liter (5.5 US gal) fuel tank supports practical everyday commuting and weekend road stints.
