Carlos Checa has given the brand-new Ducati 1199R a perfect qualifying debut by claiming pole position for the opening round of the 2013 World Superbike Championship at Phillip Island.

Cast your mind back to the launch of the iPhone 5 and you might remember some chat about custom apps – and the introduction of a dedicated iPad app from Ducati. Now it's arrived – enabling Ducati dealers to configure custom motorbikes for bike-loving enthusiasts and place orders right from the showroom floor.

Following two years of development, Ducati is rolling out its iPad-flavoured stock management system across its 796 dealer network in 87 countries. Customers can choose from over 300 motorcycle mods and accessories to equip their dream Ducati with and can actually see what it would look like – and more importantly how much it will set them back – in an instant.

MONDO DUCATI for iPad | iTunes App Store | If you don't have an iPad, this is the line in the sand - get thee to an Apple store!!!

The digital edition of the magazine Mondo Ducati – point of reference for all Ducatisti since 1997 (and in Ductalk's opinion one of the best Ducati focused magazines ever, but always in the past in Italian only) – is now available for the iPad, in English. The magazine is also Italian at the price of €1.59 Euro ($1.99 USD) per issue. What’s special about the app is the fact that it’s not just a simple adaptation of the printed version, but rather an app specially formulated, designed and optimised to take advantage of the enormous potential of the iPad: videos, interviews, photographic galleries and virtual visits to the Ducati factory, integrate the usual contents of the magazine. Inside the first number you’ll find interviews with Gianluigi Mengoli, Engine Technical Director, and Andrea, Vehicle Technical Director; road tests of the Diavel and Monster 1100 Evo; they preview specials like the Motocorse Bimota, the Monster by Ducabike and the 999RS by Skarburati. And, they present the never-seen 3-cylinder Desmo engine.  Great stuff, the top writers in the industry, access to the deepest well of Ducati knowledge, and now, all in English.
