First White Panigale in Hawaii

Ducati Forum

Help Support Ducati Forum:

Pretty sure I saw your bike in person at the dealership the day you picked it up! I live on Oahu with a red 2013 1199s and was down at south seas this week for something else when I saw the white 1199 marked sold. Congrats on the purchase and welcome to the forum. There are a lot I'd desmoheads out there but not many pani owners. Drop me a line sometime if you'd like to ride. I'm over in Kaneohe on the marine base. I'll bet the cacophony of 2 panigales together sounds even sweeter than 1!

RM4TWO I live on the Big Island and I had to ship the bike to the dealer on a custom pallet by Young Brothers ocean freight. I'm the only 1199 on this island but there are a handful of duc riders here. If you want to ride and live in Hawaii this is the only island to be on period.We have alot of wide open roads you can really run flat out on. I have to replace the knee sliders on my suit on a regular basis so its pretty good. I also have a Harley electra glide ultra which is what is best suited for the other islands due traffic and/or lack of good roads.

They use to have a inter-island super ferry but it was stopped after ex Gov. Lingle was found to have "fast-tracked" *cough* the environmental impact study.

Try using this link I can't get it to work for me (Firefox?)

Riding on Oahu is crazy crowded with unforeseen sudden rainfall and drivers from all over the world (horrible/tourists) and traffic that definitely accentuates the Panigale's heat issue. But I still have fun except for the low side caused by another Ducati rider and the broken mirror I got at the dealer when a guy backed his Gixxer into my bike. In a word CHALLENGING. But I get to do it 365 days a year and look at bikinis:D

I always wonder about this. Thanks for the info.

There are many military bases in HI so I could go there in my career with free shipping of bikes. I am not sure which ones are in the Big Island if any but still good to know.

Small island with traffic is the worse.
 
how much was it? i was trying to get the base model two days ago but the salesman and the finance guy is just so hard to deal w/,
 
for base model 21k+ out the door.....any advice guys....opinions will be very helpful...finance person quoted me 23,732 w/ 3yrs maintenance and 500 dollar gap insurance is these a total rip off or what:(((((((
