The RAD 01 is a kit bike offering from Spanish company Radical
Ducati. The RAD 01 was designed by Michael Uhlarik, who also
designed the 2003 Yamaha M1 MotoGP bike, and more recently
the Yamaha MT-03.
Based on either a Ducati 749 or 999, the RAD 01's components
bolt on using the original drill holes so the modification
is fully reversible and return to stock is easy. The RAD 01
has a bigger fuel tank, 20 litres instead of 18.5, and the
ram air system has been improved by repositioning the vents
in the front fairing, and moving the headlights down and into
the side fairings. Other changes include a redesigned tail
unit and new front subframe.
The
kit costs £1400 ($2450), plus the donor bike, and fitting
takes only around an hour to fit, apparently.
