Look closer, you'll notice it's a "quarter horse".

Why you wouldn't want a complete horse has me totally bemused.

Vee Two Super Squalo

Engine Supercharged 998 cc V-Twin
Transmission 6-speed, chain (close ratio)
Horsepower 180 + bhp (at rear wheel)
Weight 185 kg / 408 lbs


Australian motorcycle tuners and builders Vee Two created the Super Squalo.
A superbike which is loosely based around the Ducati 999 chassis and engine.

The Super Squalo, which means shark in Italian, uses a Ducati 999S Testastretta engine
with a Sprintex supercharger that lifts power from 112kW to 152kW with 168Nm of torque.

The Vee Two tweaked 998 cc v-twin engine has been mated to a Sprintex supercharger
allowing for 200 horsepower (at the crank) and a strong flat torque curve.

Vee Two drafted in world renowned motorcycle designer John Keogh to pen the Super Squalo's lines.
The design of the Super Squalo is influenced by the name. Squalo means shark in Italian, and the visible connection can be seen in the bodywork.
The belly pan is painted to look like the underside of a Great White, and the tail unit features shark gill style slits.

The hand built superbike, of which only 99 will be made, is equipped with a few features unique to the bike.
Firstly a windscreen which adjusts its angle electronically according to road speed, and a rear view camera with dash mounted display screen.

Vee Two have used only the finest components and materials for the Super Squalo's construction. Ohlins suspension, Marchesini wheels, ceramic coated dual exhaust, digital race dash and a braced trellis type swing arm are just a few of the highlights.

Only 99 of the $75,000 bikes will be built by supercharger manufacturer Automotive Technology Group in Perth.
