He might not have earned great points for Ducati this year, but the Italian maker recently unveiled a limited edition 848 motorcycle christened the Ducati 848 Nicky Hayden. The bike features the same 134bhp L-twin Evoluzione powerplant with a wet clutch and a six-speed gearbox – the same as the rest of the 848 line.

This limited edition bike also sports a revised LED dash cluster, optional 30mm mirror extensions for those with long-torsos and improved aluminum cam belt tensioner pulleys to go along with its new patriotic livery. The Ducati 848 Nicky Hayden SE is on sale only in the States and is available at a slight premium with a sticker price of US $14,495 (roughly Rs 7 lakh).
