Ducati and Kawasaki rev limits updated ahead of the Prometeon Italian Round

Rev limits in the MOTUL FIM Superbike World Championship category will be updated for the Prometeon Italian Round, as announced by the Federation Internationale de Motocyclisme (FIM) and Dorna WSBK Organization (DWO).

Following the latest analysis of the relative performance of the machines over the last three rounds, the maximum rev limit for Ducati will be decreased by 250 rpm – as per article 2.4.2.2-3* of the regulations.

Ahead of Round 7 in Italy, Kawasaki has elected to use five concession points to benefit from a 250 rpm rev limit increase as per article 2.4.3.3 of the regulations.

*The rev limit may be updated (according to Art. 2.4.2.3) at the end of every 3rd event provided at least 3 events remain in the season.

A regularly updated version of the FIM SBK Regulations which contains the detailed text of the regulation changes may be viewed on the FIM website.
