Brazil's SP Corse is a reputed workshop located in the culturally enriched neighborhood of Vila Madalena, Sao Paolo. After a brief involvement in motorsports, the company’s areas of expertise have been narrowed down to customizing and restoring Ducati’s mechanical stallions as of 2016. Since then, we’ve seen a plethora of unique masterpieces come to life on their premises, the latest of which has managed to capture our full attention.
The project in question (dubbed “Ristretto”) has been commissioned by a former racer and the chosen donor was a 2007 variant of Bologna’s Monster S4RS Testastretta family. If you ask me, this couldn’t be more appropriate for a fellow who is used to riding fast machines. The bike’s liquid-cooled 998cc L-twin powerplant is good for up to 130 feral ponies and 77 pound-feet (104 Nm) of twist at optimal rpm, so that’s certainly a good start.
