The Ducati ST3 sports a powerful, 3-valve, Desmo L-twin engine.
Matched with its Superbike-derived trellis
frame, adjustable suspension, comfortable two-up riding
position and optional colour-matched luggage, the Ducati ST3
is at ease on both twisty mountain roads and cross-country motorways.
Intelligently designed with high quality components throughout
– Showa forks, adjustable brake and clutch levers, Brembo
brake system, CAN line electronics and a forward thinking instrument
panel – the ST3 is a powerful and extremely versatile bike
never short on muscle. It is the ideal choice for all touring
adventures.
The ST3 power plant features three valves per cylinder –
two intake and one exhaust – to offer a performance balance
between our Desmodue and Desmoquattro engines. The liquid-cooled
ST3 engine benefits from the latest Ducati compact cylinder
head technology with twin spark plugs, plus advanced cylinders,
connecting rods and pistons. The three valve system results
in an engine that strikes a perfect balance between the high
torque at low
rpm's of two valve engines and the power at higher revs of four
valve engines. Improved reliability and low emissions make the
Ducati ST3 a confident choice to tackle wild mountain passes
and endless stretches of highway. Producing 107 hp at 8750 rpm
and 10kgm at 7250 rpm, the Ducati ST3 has more than enough power
for the long haul and inspires confidence, even when two-up
and under the full weight of luggage.
