The colour scheme relies on the racing attitude evoked by Ducati Red, for which the “R” bikes competing in WorldSBK have long stood out.
Racing is just the beginning
The latest evolution of a legendary saga that epitomises Ducati sports attitude. Developed to respect the WorldSBK championship regulation, the new Panigale V4 R embodies the success achieved by Ducati in MotoGP and Superbike. Powered by the 998 cc Desmosedici Stradale, it is the first bike homologated for road use to feature Corner Sidepods and the Ducati Racing Gearbox with Ducati Neutral Lock (DNL).
Compact forms, sharp lines and advanced technical solutions based on aerodynamics research blend to form an exhilarating, aggressive aesthetic. Born to exceed every limit.
Advanced race engine
Even faster. Even more racing. Designed to respect World Superbike regulations. With its 998 cc Desmosedici Stradale R engine, it delivers 239 hp, for speeds in excess of 330 km/h.
The essence of speed
Agility, traction and corner speed form the basis for the new Panigale V4 R chassis setup. Derived from that of the new Panigale V4, it is an evolution that stems from experience in MotoGP, bringing technologies designed to ensure maximum control and ultimate riding feeling to the road and track.
The most advanced electronics of all time
Even greater performance thanks to the advanced electronics of the Panigale V4 R. Solutions that make it even more sophisticated, safe and extreme, adapting to the individual needs of each rider.
