1199 wins KMF Race this weekend

gsd98jsh · Apr 7, 2013

Motorcycle race in Korea is not as popular as in the other part of the world. Until last year, S1000RR was dominating the race. Ducati Korea has finally decided to put their feet in the race. The final race was held yesterday and the qualifiers list included 22 BMW S1000RR and 1 Ducati 1199. And the winner was 1199 Panigale with rider DongKwan Choi. What was even more amazing was 1199 was a normal version with Full Termi, slick tire, and new front suspension. There were no carbon parts, just standard 1199... yes, with the base wheels.

We did not have great result on MOTO GP Qatar yesterday.
But, I just wanted to share some good news with forum members here.

Awesome! I see he's still rocking the base wheels too.

Congrats! 1 vs. 22 is pretty friggin awesome.

What front suspension did you run?

gsd98jsh · Apr 8, 2013

There were a few HP4 as well.
The news article said they installed "FRP fairing set" on 1199.
They did not change the actual suspension.
