CR&S DUU Deperlu

Introducing the 2011 CR&S DUU Deperlu: a stunning testament to Italian craftsmanship and engineering that seamlessly blends the allure of café racer aesthetics with the raw power of a superbike. Positioned in the naked bike category, this motorcycle is designed for those who crave a visceral riding experience without the encumbrance of excessive bodywork. With a price point starting at €19,000, the DUU Deperlu stands as a premium offering for discerning riders who appreciate exclusivity and performance. As a model that pays homage to the rich heritage of CR&S—shorthand for Café Racers and Superbikes—this motorcycle is sure to turn heads wherever it roams. At the heart of the DUU Deperlu lies a robust 1916 cc V2 engine, which is more than just a powerplant; it’s an experience waiting to unfold. With a torque output of 148 Nm at 4300 RPM, riders can expect exhilarating acceleration and a thrilling top speed of 200 km/h (124.3 mph). The engine's air-cooled, four-stroke design boasts a bore and stroke of 104.8 mm x 111.1 mm, providing a distinctive character that reverberates through the frame. The 5-speed gearbox, complemented by a wet multidisc clutch with hydraulic control, ensures smooth gear transitions, allowing riders to fully harness the engine's potential while navigating winding roads or cruising on the highway. The chassis of the DUU Deperlu is a marvel in itself, constructed from a stainless steel main structure that emphasizes both strength and lightness. The bike’s impressive suspension—featuring an upside-down telescopic fork with 48 mm diameter in the front and a single hydraulic shock absorber in the rear—ensures a stable ride, regardless of the road conditions. Coupled with wave double floating discs and radial 4-piston brake calipers at the front, stopping power is as impressive as the acceleration. With a seat height of 800 mm, this bike accommodates a wide range of riders, while the adjustable hydraulic damping and spring preload on both the front and rear suspension provide customization for an optimal ride. **
