Super Squalo - Desmosedici Killer?
Not sure if I just missed this earlier, but today I've come across a Desmosedici RR alternative. That is a supercharged 999 putting out 200bhp - the Super Squalo.

Only 99 being made, so get your order in quick - Click Here

Yep not bad but Stefano Caracchi (boss of NCR WSB ducati team) has got a 999 bored out to 1200cc that kicks out 185bhp at the rear wheel (202bhp at the front sprocket) which is good news. It means the offical Ducati version should kick some butt

They were at Goodwood in one of the paddocks, ironically next to Ducati who were running a WSB 999 and a Desmosedici. The Aussie bike was competing but don't know how it got on.
The supercharger is mounted above the front pot. Looks like a real cooling headache in the making.
They reckon total of 99 will be built and it will push the thick end of 200bhp. So that has to be the fastest naked bike yet.
