Here is another Ducati model that will freak you out… or rather make you drool.

The 2007 Ducati Sport Touring ST3 S ABS is one of the most exciting models from the Italian motorcycle maker. Along with its high quality components and materials, the ST3 S ABS comes with Ducati anti lock braking system (ABS) that detects the wheel speed and prevents tire lock up. This model also features Desmo engine that is similar to the one used in SBK and MotoGP racing, as well as Superbike suspension. Other features include Electronic instrument panel using CAN communication protocol with CPU, multifunctional digital display, analog rev counter, and immobilizer system.

The overall package of the Ducati Sport Touring ST3 S ABS expresses four things: power, performance, riding comfort, and safety.
