I'm on my second Panigale R and i have a 1098R.
No issues with any of these bikes.
I also have a couple of friends with R's and they have also had no issues. What problems are you specifically having.

Just checked.......... No updates
...i've had a few.....but they get fixed....come back, then get fixed...."all good"
i keep saying it but to produce this much power with such a light chassis and putting a 2 year warranty on it is really cool.
indeed yes !
...for the record...the D16RR Desmosedici was 3yrs of financially worry free riding on the non-consumables

During the AMS Ducati / Austin Ducati hosted track days at MSR Cresson, you would typically see 3 or 4 Superleggerras, a mix of several Panigale R, 1299, and 1199 bikes, and various other Ducati, BMW, and Aprilia bikes modded to the hilt, all being ridden harder than it is to read and understand your posts...
If you don't believe me, head down and visit during their next event and you will likely understand just how big of an ....... you sound like.

Apologies NorCal, I thought you had found a photo of someone who had actually filed out their chicken strips, I misunderstood the comment. You certainly got the most out of that set.That's from doing a track day, no way I can get these riding canyons...

I think you need to look at your suspension set up, the tearing on the rear is not right it looks like it's tearing but from a geometry set up rather than pressure.

Interesting you bring this up because I've had a gut feeling something isn't feeling right and that I have to battle the bike more than I should...
I'm gonna try to find someone that can help me with the suspension setup but here are some more pics, hopefully you can see something I can't and try to figure out what's wrong...

I agree with reganc, that does not look like good. Your in Cali so get a hold of Dave Moss and Catalyst Reaction to get your suspension setup correctly. You can also check out his website and YouTube vids for suspension setup info. Dave Moss Tuning | Ensure your bike geometry, spring rates, hydraulic damping and tire size/compounds are in sync

I'm suspecting the previous owner (who was taller and heavier than me) made any change to the geometry... I reached out to Dave to see when I can stop by and have it tuned. I had planned to do it and I'm fortunate I don't live too far from his shop!
Thanks for the feedback guys!!!

Just checked again............. still nothing
Going back to previous posts about the R mine (2015) is still going strong. It does use some oil but nothing to much and no visible smoke in the exhaust fumes........ I have also tracked it with no issues

I don't see what is wrong with this tire. I see a tire that has been used on the street after a track day. Nothing more. There is nothing here that looks like a suspension problem. No cupping, no cold tearing, no signs of over heated compound. Yes the edge has rubber rolling off but that is to be expected. Maybe you guys are seeing something I am not in these photos. If so please point it out. But from what I see the tire looks good.
