no.
painting or imitating a color scheme is something else than putting on the "Superleggerra" sticker...
how does one distinguish a base from an SL:
-wheels
-exhaust
-number plate
-1199 SUPERLEGGERRA on the sides...
(just a few items for beginners)
you're not James Bond by just wearing a tux...

His bike and his free will to do whatever the hell he wants to his bike. Nothing wrong with having a different look than what you're bike originally looks like. Not a single person here has the right to criticize the mans decision to do what he chooses to do with his bike. Opinions are like ............everyone has them. Some of us (including myself) have the R decal kits on our bikes. If that makes someone a poser, there's a lot of guilty members in here. Grant it, I don't think any of us with the decal kit have the R Next to the Panigale 1199 decal but still.
Anyway, that white and orange-ish/red looks awesome. I'd slap some white wheels on it to go with the look and call it a day.
OP, as long as you're happy with the end result (when it's all said n done) no one elses opinion matters. Good luck with your project.

I love the look of the 2014 WSBK scheme, why I'm gonna be doing mine in it soon,once replacement fuel tank arrives(mine badly dented)
This is what It will look like when painted.
Now if you already have a red 899/1199, you could just buy the graphics kit and throw it on, get the lowers painted in black and your done.

As I said previously, your bike do as you please. But for gods sake do NOT put superleggera badging on the bike.
Carbovani makes the Tri fairings in carbon fiber and they offer the option of just saying "1199 Panigale" and not "S."
Your bike will look great with SL wrap. When people ask, I'd be straightforward and say its a wrap job.

Hello people!
Tell me what you think; I'm planning on wrapping my 1199 so it looks like a 1199 Superleggera. Also changing to March rims, some more carbon, remove mirrors etc. The wrapping company has the exact color, and they can do it in 3-4 days.
But could the Ducati dealer be pissed off when I show up there to buy something or for service? That I made my "standard" 1199 look like their flagship bike? Would they see it as negative publicity for the real SL?
Thanks for any input.

trade your 1199 for the SL - you'll be happier, and in the end will probably cost less
(i know thats not true (about cost), but just felt like saying it)

Never been a Fan of making my prized possession looking like a Poser/Replica
If I liked that SL so much, I should do better in life and save more money and buy the real thing..
But that's just me...of course you are free to do what you like..
It will look great, until an enthusiasts or someone very familiar with the bike figures out its simply a replica ... kinda like putting M Badge and body parts on a regular 3/5/6 series..

Yeah old thread.
Turned out the wrap guy lives half a world away in northern Thailand, and wants a small fortune to come to Bangkok to do the job. So idea is scrapped for now, was looking at doing the Aruba.it WSBK wrap, but didn't find a shop that can do yet.
Basically back to square 1, riding my not so shiny all red bike... :-(
