Hello All,
Last week I bought a leftover 2012 Base Pani w/o ABS. It was $16,300 plus FL county tax and tag, no setup, freight or dealer fees at Melillimoto Ducati in Ocala FL. I wanted the base model as I'm a bit old school and figure the 1st-Gen DES will not be as good as it will be after a few years of refinements. Besides, with the mods I have planned, the bike already starts out around 10 pounds lighter without ABS and DES.
Been riding street/track since 1989 (and never needed ABS in thousands of street/track miles), and most recently owned an MV Agusta F4 1000R, Buell 1125R and just sold the Crossplane-crank R1 to get the Pani.
Here are some fun videos I've made:
Crossplane R1 at Daytona International Speedway - YouTube
On-Board Video of MV Agusta F4 1000R at Daytona International Speedway - YouTube
Isle of Man TT... In the USA! Buell 1125R and Yamaha R1 Mountain Run - YouTube
Deal's Gap HD Video - Buell 1125R with Picture-in-Picture - YouTube
Here's the new Pani yesterday with only 129 miles on the odo, trying to keep her under 7,500 until she's good and broken in.
Here is my list of mods planned so far:
Bitubo XXF61 Racing Shock
Bitubo Nitrogen-charged Steering Damper
S-Wheels (already have but may get OZ Piega wheels)
Termi Slip-ons (already have but may get Termi headers also)
Bazzaz Z-Fi with custom map
T-Rex Frame Sliders
Sato rear axle slider
Speedymoto front axle slider
XPEL Ultimate 3/4 Paint Protection Film Application
Evotech Radiator + Oil Cooler Guards (holed an MV radiator - not cheap!)
41T rear sprocket and quick-change carrier
R&G Tank and Tail Section Sliders
Looking forward to interacting with other 1199 owners and hopefully adding to the knowledge base. Ride safe brothers and sisters!
