Anyone want to buy a 2020 Panigale WSBK?

I've got 2 acoustics that get almost no use but a 12 string would be nice to add for a couple of songs. I already have more than my abilities can justify so I'll have to deal

Same here, that Martin is probably a $35,000 guitar that was my Dads, I get the 12 string out more often, though lately I’ve been trying my hand at some slide stuff on the 6 string

Yep, speaking from experience

Just seeing a photo of SRV gives me chills, he was so incredibly good

Those 2 on my wall are what got me playin and teachin myself. I'm nowhere near great but to be able to say i can play some of their songs with I'd say 80-90% accuracy is something i am proud of....so much so that I named my daughter after an SRV song, Lenny. First song I ever learned to play from beginning to end. Took me 2yrs of figurin it out with multiple hours a day practicing lol but i was determined!

Not surprised it hasn’t sold: very high price (even for an already high priced bike), weird rules about seeing the bike from the seller, no actual Corse support, communications through a broker and not direct with seller, etc., etc., etc.

That said, riding and learning a WSBK is unlike anything else. It feels like what the V4 is supposed to be. The refinements are quite palpable, apparent, and applicable.

Which WSBK have you ridden?

I’m fortunate enough to own and ride a F20 SBK (same bike as the listing except for gearbox differences). I’m also not very fast, certainly not fast enough to be deserving of a factory bike, even with my slow pace the bike adds much confidence and stability.

It’s a glorious machine.

Very nice! I hope you enjoy many trackside lattes with it

I literally have an espresso grinder and machine in my trailer.

I am a cliche, and I’m ok with it.

What’s the difference in the gearbox?

I don’t know the specifics. But was told the gearing is shorter, on average. Also, likely has a N-1-2-3-4-5-6 shift pattern.

It would be very courteous of you to share details and photos of this bike.

I ....... love this guy.

Saccardo where did you get it and how?

Also how do you manage the electronics if at all, how’d you get the bike tuned to you with the suspension etc?

Did you have to do anything to it to prep it for track day riding?

They set the electronics upfront before the purchase at a sort of “base level.” To this point, I haven’t messed with the electronics one bit, but that is a possible adventure for this year. Suspension is all ohlins, nothing more fancy in terms of adjustment than any other suspension…except the forks and shock are near un-obtainium.

Besides having the correct start up sequence, nothing much different to prep for a track day than riding any other bike (regular oil changes, race fuel, clutch packs, etc).

Have you had it dyno’d and weighed?

Also did they give you any type of maintenance schedule for the engine, clutch, tranny etc.?

Nah. Haven’t done that. Not my speed to do all of that. Quoted at 250+ at the wheel, 375# wet.

No specific schedule, as I don’t think one actually exists. The race teams have their own intervals of most of this (oil clutch pack change between each race/practice, motor tear down 2+ times a season depending on motor time/performance). No mention of bottom end rebuilds on the bike.

Man I’m intrigued lol

Wanna trade it for a heavily modified $120k V4 25 Anniversario 916?

On a more serious note, PM me or let us now how you hooked up with getting the bike.
