DUCATI 1199 PANIGALE S
Year: 2014
Mileage: 15, 500 miles

The Ducati 1199 Panigale S was a mould-breaking motorcycle. Apart from the colour and the noise it made, it had nothing in common with Ducati superbikes of old. The chassis was ‘frameless’, there was a new generation ‘Superquadro’ engine, and it came with the latest electronic rider aids, which actually work. The 1199 was a big step forward for the Italian manufacturer and introduced design features like the stressed-member-engine that would continue to be used in Panigale models through into the V4 era. Producing a claimed 195bhp and weighing 188kg, wet, it had a fearsome power-to-weight ratio but was remarkably easy to ride. Gone was the out-going 1198’s excess of almost uncontrollable torque and in was a smooth power curve and a searing top end. Like Ducati’s of old, its super-stable in fast corners, but it steered as fast as a Japanese superbike. It’s a very clever motorcycle and very, very good indeed.
