In 2011, at the Milan Motorcycle Show, the Italian motorcycle manufacturer introduced the Ducati 1199 Panigale, a sports bike named after the small manufacturing town of Borgo Panigale. The bike was powered by a 1,198cc engine, while in 2015, the maker announced a larger displacement Panigale machine.

In 2014, the Italian motorcycle manufacturer launched the Ducati 1199 Superleggera, which in English meant super light. The main focus of the 2014 Superleggera was weight saving, ultimately achieved through the use of exotic materials, such as magnesium, carbon fiber, and titanium.

The 2013 machine combined a cocktail of materials to achieve the best power-to-weight ratio. It is safe to say that they reached the best power-to-weight ratio, with an output power of more than 200 hp and a dry weight of 155 kg (342 lbs).

As for appearance, the 2014 Ducati 1199 Superleggera packed standard features, such as a full fairing with a medium-sized windscreen, a single seat, an under-belly mounted exhaust system, a single-sided swingarm, and nine-spoke lightweight wheels.

At the bike's core was a 1,198cc four-stroke L-twin liquid-cooled engine fed by an Electronic Fuel Injection (EFI) system, boasting 203 hp with a peak at 11,500 rpm and 134 Nm (99 lb-ft) torque at 10,200 rpm.

The 2014 Ducati 1199 Superleggera was one of the most exotic and desirable Ducati then and was manufactured in only 500 units.

Established in 2011, the Panigale family was named after the small manufacturing town of Borgo Panigale and manufactured as various types of sports motorcycles. All models in this series use a monocoque frame replacing Ducati’s conventional trellis frame.

In 2015, the new 1199 Panigale R made its way to the spotlights. It uses the 1198cc Superquadro Desmodromic liquid-cooled engine that can deliver to the back wheel an asphalt-wrinkling 205 hp at 11,500 rpm and 136 Nm (100 lb-ft) of torque, all thanks to the six-speed DSQ gearbox.

The monocoque frame uses the engine as a stressed member to lose weight and become more rigid. For suspension, it uses Ohlins NIX30 43 mm with a fully adjustable USD fork on the front and a fully adjustable Ohlins TTX36 unit on the rear.

In braking terms, the 1199 Panigale R uses two 330 mm Brembo semi-floating discs on the front and one 245 mm disc on the back, with cornering ABS included in the calipers.

Responsible for grip are the Pirelli Diablo Supercorsa SP tires mounted on 3-spoked W-shaped forged aluminum wheels.

A weight reduction was achieved using the monocoque chassis, carbon fiber parts, titanium exhaust system, and a lithium-ion battery, which saved up to 2 kg (4.4 lbs), reaching a dry weight of 162 kg (357 lbs).

The 2015 Ducati 1199 Panigale R was for sale in 2022 starting from $18,000.

The Ducati 1299 Panigale is a sport motorcycle and the successor of the 1199 Panigale. In 2014, the S was unveiled at the Milan Motorcycle Show and started being made in 2015. The wheelbase remains unchanged, and all models of the range are equipped with a new generation of electronics.

AS said, in 2015 Ducati released the new 1299 Panigale S. The S version, as opposed to the base model, has a new semi-active Ohlins Smart EC suspension, switchable between different driving modes.

The muscle power of the new 2015 Panigale S comes from the 1299cc Superquadro Desmodromic liquid-cooled engine that develops a brute force of 205 hp at 10,500 rpm and 140 Nm (107 lb-ft) of torque. The burned fuel and oxygen are pushed through a 2-1-2 catalytic converter with two lambda sensors and are lowered in decibels by twin stainless steel mufflers with aluminum caps.

The monocoque frame used since 2011 is doing a great job minimizing weight and offering more rigidity to the bike. For suspension, the 2015 Ducati 1299 Panigale S has a semi-active Ohlins NIX30 43mm fully adjustable USD fork on the front and a semi-active, fully adjustable Ohlins TTX36 unit on the rear.

Ducati is known for its racing history and the willingness to achieve more performance for its motorcycle family. With that in mind, in 2014 Ducati came up with the 1199 Panigale R.

The 2014 R model is lighter and more powerful than the base version of the 1199 Panigale. The R model took everything from the S model and updated the technical data to achieve better targets. A few updates in the engine were the titanium con-rods saving 0.63 kg (1.30 lbs) and a 0.7 kg (1,54 lbs) lighter crankshaft flywheel.

The race livery is inspired by the Ducati Corso, with a white racing stripe from front to back, and with more carbon fiber parts, the R model’s weight is reduced by almost 3 kg (6.6 lbs) and reaches a dry weight of 164 kg (362 lbs)

From a mechanical point of view, the R was powered by the 1198cc Superquadro Desmodromic liquid-cooled engine and develops a power of 195 hp at 10.750 rpm and 132 (97 lb-ft) of torque at 9,000 rpm.

Other R features consist of a high-penetration racing screen, fairing mirror alloy caps, and a full Termignoni exhaust system with a dedicated ECU mapping,

but that's just for track use only.

The 2014 Ducati 1199 Panigale R was listed for sale in 2022 starting at $16.000.

Ducati raises the bar even higher with the 2014 release of the Ducati Panigale S. As opposed to the base 1199 Panigale model, the new one boasts superior performance and maneuverability thanks to lighter Marchesini machined-finished wheels, Ohlins electronic suspension, as well as a carbon fiber mudguard, and full LED lighting.

At its core, the power manager of the motorcycle is composed of the 1198cc Superquqdro Desmodromic liquid-cooled engine, and a six-speed gearbox equipped with DSQ (Ducati Quick Shift). Altogether mixing the power of 194 hp at 10,750 rpm and a torque of 132 Nm (97 lb-ff) pushes the bike to a top speed of 292 kph (181 mph). The dry weight of the 2014 Panigale model was 164 kg (361 lbs).

The 2014 Ducati 1199 Panigale S, like the previous models, used the aluminum monocoque frame. On the frame were mounted Ohlins NIX30 43mm, a fully adjustable USD fork at the front wheel, and a fully adjustable Ohlins TTX36 unit at the rear.

The braking system is well controlled by the two Brembo 330 mm semi-floating discs at the front and one 245 mm disc at the back.

The Marchesini machined-finished wheels were secured with a grip provider pair of Pirelli Supercorsa SP tires.

Also, besides the classic Ducati red, it comes with a new, more aggressive Dark Stealth color scheme.

The 2014 Panigale S was for sale in 2022 with a price starting at $17,000.

Since 2011, Ducati is manufacturing sports motorcycles under the Panigale name, chosen after the small town of Borgo Panigale. In 2014 Ducati released the new 1199 Panigale model that carries on the family torch, and like its previous version, it does not disappoint. It has the unmistakable Italian thoroughbred design and styling, and the shape and flowing lines that make it an aggressive-looking motorcycle.

The 2014 Ducati 1199 Panigale runs with the 1198cc Superquadro Desmodromic liquid-cooled engine, that was able to produce 195 hp at 10,750 rpm and a torque of 132 Nm (97 lb-ft) at 9,000 rpm.

Like all the Panigale members of the family, the 2014 Panigale had the same aluminum monocoque frame that used the engine as a stressed member. The 2014 model weighs 166 kg (366 lbs) dry.

In the suspension department, the model used a Marzocchi 50 mm pressurized and fully adjustable USD fork at the front and a fully adjustable unit at the rear.

At the front wheel, there were two 330 mm semi-floating discs, and the back gets one 245 mm disc, with the Brembo calipers pushing on both. The black 10-spoked wheels were married to a pair of Pirelli Diablo Supercorsa tires.

Ducati 1199 Panigale was for sale in 2022 with a price starting from $11,000.

In 2013, Ducati released the 899 Panigale, a sports bike meant to replace the 848. It is the first Ducati medium-sized motorcycle that uses the Superquadro engine. The 899 is visually identical to the 1199 Panigale, and was designed to suit the needs of both novice and experienced riders of the superbike world, but also for people who need a motorcycle for everyday use.

In 2014, the first year of its production, the 899 Panigale escapes through the gates of the manufacturing plant, entering a new world. The 899’s accomplice was the 898cc, Superquadro, liquid-cooled engine delivering a power of 148 hp at 10,750 rpm and 99 Nm (73 lb-ft) of torque at 9,000 rpm.

The 2014 Ducati 899 Panigale R used the same aluminum monocoque frame as its big brother. For suspension, the 899 used fully adjustable BPF forks, 43 mm chromed inner tubes at the front, and a fully adjustable unit at the back. Working head-to-head with the ABS, the Brembo brakes take good care of the bike.

Unlike the 1199 Panigale, the 899 models were equipped with a conventional two-sided swingarm, and another wise feature was the narrower 180 mm wide rear tire that gave an advantage for agility.

The 899 Panigale was built between 2013 and 2015, and later, in 2022 was for sale with prices starting at $10.000.

In 2012, Ducati stepped up a bit with the release of the 1199 Panigale R, the revised model for 2013.

They took the S model and improved it with race-derived elements and lighter materials. Ducati used lightened internal engine material, including titanium con-rods, and added a full-system race exhaust and ECU. The 2013 Panigale R was dressed in carbon fiber external parts and had 500 rpm more added to the rev counter. With the track-only race exhaust and weight reduction, the R went down to 165 kg (364 lbs), an increased power up to 202 hp, and an estimated top speed of 325 kph (202 mph).

The 2013 model is powered by the same 1198cc Superquadro L-Twin liquid-cooled engine, and without the race exhaust, the Panigale R makes the same amount of power as the other models. Namely 195 hp at 10,750 rpm and a torque of 132 Nm (97 lb-ft) at 9,000 rpm.

The 1199 Panigale R also comes with an aluminum monocoque frame that uses the engine as a stressed member. It comes at the front with Ohlins NIX30 43 mm, a fully adjustable USD fork, and a fully adjustable Ohlins TTX36 unit at the rear. In the braking department, Brembo took responsibility for the two 330 mm semi-floating discs at the front and one 245 mm disc at the rear.

The new Tricolore model celebrates the arrival of a new superbike generation and proudly wears the Italian flag colors, red, white, and green.

A few options and features were extra on the 2012 Tricolore version, like the new generation DDA+ (Ducati Data Analyser) with GPS lap time function and a titanium racing muffler by Ducati Performance, but otherwise it carries the same equipment as the S version.

At the foundation of the bike sits the 1198cc Superquadro Desmodromic liquid-cooled engine, with a whopping power of 194 hp at 10,750 rpm and 132 Nm (97 lb-ft) of torque. The Tricolore comes equipped with a six-speed DSQ (Ducati Quick Shift).

The monocoque aluminum frame uses the engine as a stressed member and weighs less than the old conventional frame. The suspension is handled by Ohlins NIX30 43mm, a fully adjustable USD fork at the front, and a fully adjustable Ohlins TTX36 unit at the rear.

ABS-equipped Brembo calipers are in charge of braking, pressing the two 330 mm semi-floating discs at the front and the single 245 mm disc at the rear.

In 2022, the Ducati 1199 Panigale S Tricolore was for sale with a price starting from $14,000.

The history of the Ducati Panigale family is going back to its first days in 2011. Another member ready to join the family is the new 2013 Ducati 1199 Panigale S, designed as a more powerful version of the Panigale, and with more new features.

The 2013 S model is powered by the same 1198cc Superquadro Desmodromic liquid-cooled engine as the lesser model, sending the power through a six-speed gearbox that releases an output power of 194 hp at 10,750 rpm and 132 Nm (97 lb-ft) of torque.

The 1199 Panigale S is equipped with a cast aluminum monocoque chassis, replacing Ducati’s conventional frame. The suspension consists of a fully adjustable Ohlins NIX30 43 mm fork at the front, and a fully adjustable Ohlins TTX36 unit at the back.

In addition to the previous model, the S comes with full LED Headlights, a carbon fiber front mudguard, Marchesini machine-finished wheels, and Ducati Electronic Suspension (DES). The Panigale S puts its faith in the two Brembo 330 mm discs at the front and one 245 mm disc at the back for stopping power.

Ducati made a special edition of this 1199 Panigale S, in memory of one of the world’s greatest Formula 1 drivers, Ayrton Senna. The bike celebrated 20 years since his death, and it was called Ducati 1199 Panigale S Senna. This commemorative motorcycle was exclusively made for Brazil, and only 161 units have been manufactured.

In 2022, the 2013 Ducati 1199 Panigale S was for sale with a price starting from $13,500.

As the Panigale family is getting bigger and bigger, it is making room for another version of the 1199 Panigale motorcycle. The base model, S, and R are the three versions of the 1199 Panigale family. In 2013 Ducati brought to the surface the new 1199 Panigale, which was the sportiest model built by the company.

The new model was grabbing its power from the 1198cc Superquadro Desmodromic liquid-cooled engine, delivering a power of 194 hp at 10,750 rpm and releasing a torque of 132 Nm (97 lb-ft) at 9,000 rpm. The Superquadro engine was part of the monocoque cast aluminum frame and reduced the bike’s weight by five kg (11 lbs).

At the front of the bike there is a Marzocchi 50 mm pressurized and fully adjustable fork, and a fully adjustable unit if fitted at the back. The braking power was delivered by two Brembo 330 mm discs at the front and one 245 mm at the rear. The black 10-spoked wheels tied to a pair of Pirelli Diablo Supercorsa SP tires were reduced in weight by 0.5 kg (1.1 lbs) prior to the previous model.

Allthough it is a powerful bike, the 2013 Ducati 1199 Panigale S is also user-friendly thanks to 21st-century technologies, and it weighs just 166 kg (366 lbs).

In 2022, the 2013 Ducati 1199 Panigale was for sale with prices starting from $10,000.

The Panigale family from Ducati, named so after the small town of Borgo Panigale where the company is based, started to gain family members. The first one was the base 1199 model introduced in 2011. In 2012 Ducati welcomes to the family the 1199 Panigale S, which came to be the most search-for motorcycle in House of Bologna.

At its core, the Panigale S was driven by the 1199cc four-stroke V-Twin liquid-cooled engine, building up a power of 195 hp at 10.750 rpm and delivering a torque on 132 Nm (97 lb-ft) at 9,000 rpm through a six-gearbox.

The 1199 Panigale S comes with an aluminum monocoque frame and with a more race-oriented suspension. At the front sits a 43 mm Ohlins NIX30 fully adjustable upside-down, tin-coated fork, and a fully adjustable monoshock with progressive linkage at the back. At the front wheel are two Brembo 330 mm discs and a single 245 mm disc at the back.

Some of the options for Ducati 1199 Panigale S are the Ducati Traction Control (DTC), Ducati Quick Shift (DQS), ride by wire with three riding modes, and an Ohlins steering damper.

In 2022, the Ducati 1199 Panigale was for sale on the used market with a price ranging from $12,500 to $15,500.

In 2011 Ducati started a new family of sports motorcycles called Panigale, named after the small town of Borgo Panigale. The first to arrive to the family was the Ducati 1199 Panigale introduced in 2011 at the Milan Motorcycle show. The 1199 Panigale was manufactured between 2012 and 2014.

At the time of its introduction, Ducati said that the 1199 Panigale was the world’s most powerful production motorcycle, carrying a twin-cylinder engine. Well hidden inside the frame is the powerful 1198cc, four-stroke, liquid-cooled engine that develops 195 hp at 10,750 rpm and 132 Nm (97 lb-ft) at 9,000 rpm, sending the power to the rear wheel through a six-speed gearbox. The dry weight of the 1199 Panigale is 164 kg (362 lbs), and it could reach a top speed of 285 kph (177 mph).

Ducati also claimed that the 1199 Panigale had the highest power-to-weight and torque-to-weight ratios of production motorcycles at the time.

The monocoque frame was made of aluminum and set the benchmark for future Panigale models. Mounted on the frame, the suspension is composed of a 50 mm Marzocchi fully adjustable upside-down fork at the front and a fully adjustable Sachs monoshock with progressive linkage at the back.
