ride

Well, I test rode one today for about 45-min. Damn near couldn't sleep last night because I was so excited. At first I wasn't going to post, but decided to. Okay, DEEP BREATH! :eek: Arrived to the dealer and couldn't wait to get in the saddle. Got geared-up and headed for the road...

Hey guys, Curious what other bikes you folks ride besides your 1199. (Hopefully this isn't a duplicate post) I just picked up an MV Agusta Dragster. Still breaking her in but I'm impressed. Much more comfortable than either the 1199R or SC, but obviously a totally different beast. The...

Not sure if there is a rear ride height tool currently available for the 1299 (with -4mm fixed swingarm pivot height). If not, I hope this DIY will help 1299 owners wanting to use the CORSE DYNAMICS Panigale ride height tool. This tool, with the round delrin bushings, is manufactured for the...

Just got back from my first ride on my Panigale 1299 S and it is THE LEAST COMFORTABLE BIKE. I SHOULD HAVE DONE MORE RESEARCH. I purchased another Ducati because my 2014 Hyperstrada is so comfortable and doesn't roast my bum. I can't even tell you how upset I am with the Panigale. So...

Let me know. We'll meet up. I'm in southeast MI, new boston

Hey Folks, Wanted to share a few pics from a ride I took recently. My firm makes me take 10 business days off annually just to make sure we're not part of any financial shenanigans. I had to move it around a bit due to various scheduling conflicts, and therefore wasn't able to plan a more...

Hi all, I'm just under 5'4" and can ride my 796 fine but hav some concerns about a 1299s purchase. Test ride one Saturday loved every moment. I'm told the 1299s can mechanically (manually reduced by 15mm) if the front and rear are dropped equally am I correct to assume the handling should be no...

Afternoon Fellas; is there a way to measure my rear ride height in which I'm talking the same numbers as people using the ride hight tools? I would like to convey my current numbers to my mechanic. I added 4mm to my rear shock shaft from stock but I didnt measure my ride height b4 that so Im not...

I came across this article today, take it to the track R.I.P. to the rider of this accident :( North Bergen man dies after horrific motorcycle accident in Jersey City | NJ.com

Hello all, I finally got a chance to take the 1199 out for a quick "ride". I picked it up from the original owner on Saturday and am still waiting on the title, so I have been unable to take it out on a long/proper ride. Needless to say, the wait is just killing me. Although the first ride...

Morning, for those you with base models or those of you running the stock Marzocchi forks and base rear shock (in flat) what are your ride heights Front/Rear. I'm chasing a setup and would like to know what other people have dialed in in that dept. Thanks.

......... Formerly known as the All Italian Bike Ride. Anyone interested in continuing this this year? And also opening it to all European brands?

Hey guys, So I got the chance to ride the new 1299 Panigale S at Ducati Austin and all I can say is wow. Here is the YouTube video, it's a little long winded but I do managed to get stung by a wasp like 8 times too. https://youtu.be/_ZxQ9W6l1t0 I specifically wanted to see if you can...

Just don't do it. Do NOT under any circumstances let anyone else ride your 1299, or it will lead to problems... Expensive problems.:mad: Today, I let my wife ride my brand new 1299S... Bad move.. Now she wants to sell hetrTriumph 675R and get a 1299. This could get expensive. The look on...

So, from what I have read over years and years as a motorcycle fan, usually people when suggesting a first bike fall into 2 groups. The people that say you must start on a 250 or below etc bike that is used and blah blah blah. And then there are the people that say, get whatever bike you want...

I tried riding a couple ladies last year and it was straight up miserable like no other bike ever! Impossible really.. the bike makes the passenger basically lay on your back..you're their only support it seems. To say it was unbearable on the wrists was an understatement! Was it my...

Hi all, I am looking for advice from you guys on the west coast USA . Myself and my better half are heading over there in May touring from LA north to Seattle, and back to LA via Yellowstone Vegas etc , we would like to hire a ride for at least one day so I am looking for suggestions on the...
