Danilo Petrucci is known to all fans for having raced in many specialties of motorsport, moving from the track to the dirt track, from the asphalt of Mugello to the sand of the Paris-Dakar. Experiences that the Terni rider passed on to Francesco Iannuzzi and Gianluca Bartolini, co-founders of Dotto Creations, who unleashed their creativity to create two completely different motorcycles, but which have in common (in addition to a Ducati base) a unique design and innovative devices that make them as multifaceted as those who inspired them.
The first is called the Handyman and is what would have been called an “off-road” bike years ago. Petrucci dreamed of a bike that he could use every day, but that would also allow him to ride off-road, and Dotto created it for him based on a Ducati Desert X. It’s a bike with a special design and an innovation: a mechanism on the handlebars that allows the rider to decide whether they want a lower riding position, suitable for riding on fast roads, or a more upright riding position, ideal for off-road riding. It will be produced in a limited series of 10 units, and each bike will be customized according to the customer’s wishes in terms of colors, materials and accessories.
These are some of Dotto Creations’ interventions
– Body: super-light fairing made from high-performance polymers and/or carbon.
– Handlebar: new patented “dual position” handlebar.
– Light sets: front headlight, rear lights and indicators.
– Other parts designed by DC: exhausts, saddle, tank, engine guard, mudguards, front mudguards, rear mudguards, grips.
The second is the Noveunosei, which has the ambition of starting from the base of the Panigale V4 and fusing it with the aesthetic characteristics of the legendary 916, the first bike used on the track by Danilo Petrucci. There is no shortage of innovations in this creation either, such as the exhausts that recede under the seat or the 916’s front headlights transformed into air intakes to channel the airflow to the engine, thus exploiting the point of greatest aerodynamic pressure on the entire bike.
Dotto Creations was involved in this creation:
– Body: super-light fairing made of high-performance polymers and/or carbon.
– Light assemblies: front headlight, rear lights and indicators
– Other parts designed by DC: exhausts, saddle, tank, front mudguards, rear mudguards, grips and much more.
There will be 16 Noveunosei and this dream bike can also be customized according to the customer’s needs.
