Ducati celebrates the triple with a replica quintet
Ducati is celebrating its triple title wins in Moto GP, World SBK and World SSP with five special series of the Panigale. They are a tribute to the Desmosedici GP of Francesco Bagnaia, Jorge Martín and Marco Bezzecchi, the Panigale V4 R of Álvaro Bautista and the Panigale V2 of Nicolò Bulega. The Panigale V4 dedicated to Bagnaia and Bautista is presented in the yellow livery with which the two champions competed in the races in Misano.
Each individual model in the series is made unique by the driver's original autograph on the tank. The signature is protected with a layer of transparent paint. The five replica models bear the starting numbers of the riders to whom they are dedicated: Pecco Bagnaias 63, Álvaro Bautistas 19, Jorge Martíns 89, Marco Bezzecchis 72 and Nicolò Bulegas 11.
Like the racing motorcycles, the Panigale 2023 Racing Replicas are only available as single-seaters. Each one is fitted with a fork bridge made of billet aluminum with laser engraving of the model name and consecutive number. There is also a special key and a cockpit animation when the ignition is activated. The seat is made of a special material with the driver's logo on it.
The Panigale V4 Bagnaia 2023 World Champion Replica is limited to 263 units worldwide. The Panigale V4 Bautista 2023 World Champion Replica is limited to 219 pieces and has a brushed aluminum fuel tank and forged Marchesini aluminum wheels in light gray . The Panigale V4 Martín 2023 Racing Replica takes on the official colors of the Desmosedici GP of the Prima-Pramac team and gets a front fender made of carbon more unique. Production is limited to 189 units. The Panigale V4 Bezzecchi 2023 Racing Replica is inspired by the yellow and black livery of the Mooney VR46 team's Desmosedici GP and will only be built 72 times.
These four edition models are based on the Panigale V4 S and are upgraded with various performance components that make them even more unique and faster on the road and on the racetrack. The equipment includes the STM-Evo SBK nine-disc dry clutch and the approved Akrapovic silencer, which is two kilograms lighter than the standard silencer. The Brembo brake system is complemented by Stylema-R brake callipers and the MCS brake pump with remote adjustment. The adjustable footrests from Rizoma are made of billet aluminum. A racing windshield provides better wind protection at high speeds.
Other technical details that make these special motorcycles stand out are the heat shield for the rear exhaust manifolds, the alternator cover, the rear mudguard and the front brake ducts, which are all made of carbon fiber. Also made of carbon, combined with titanium, is the cover for the single-sided swingarm.
All Panigale V4 Replica motorcycles are brought even closer to the racing motorcycles from which they are inspired by a range of accessories. The scope of delivery includes the open clutch cover made of carbon, the kits for removing the license plate holder and the mirrors, the racing tank cover made of billet aluminium and the GPS module, which enables the lap and split times set on the racetrack to be displayed in the cockpit.
The Panigale V2 Bulega 2023 World Champion Replica takes up the red and black livery of the Panigale V2 of the SSP team Aruba.it Racing, with which Nicolò Bulega won the world championship title. Production is limited to 111 units. It features Öhlins suspension and a racing exhaust from Akrapovic, with increased power and torque. In addition, the weight combined with the bike's lithium-ion battery is reduced by five kilos. The aluminum footrests are also adjustable here. The mudguards, the chain guard, the clutch cover, the swingarm guard and the shock absorber protection are made of carbon. The swingarm cover is made of carbon and titanium. The Panigale V2 can also be brought even closer to the racing motorcycle with the supplied license plate and mirror removal kit and the racing tank cover.
Each bike comes with a certificate of authenticity and is delivered in a wooden box with special graphics and a customized cover cloth. (aum)
