I wanted to put this out there for everyone and get some feedback before pulling the trigger on another 2012 Base non-ABS. I am in the process of having Ducati North America repurchase my 2012 Base non-ABS due to the clutch master slave and cylinder being replaced three times each over the...

if you've ridden one, or even seen one in person, your impressions would be appreciated (relative to an 1199R).

Who hates the term "Duc" as much as I do??? :rolleyes:

For those who have the Sato sliders and track they failed for me on an average low side. The right side simply popped off (the original side of the low side) and the left side bent. I won't be using sliders ever again I think. I believe they contributed to my bike flipping and causing way more...

Was thinking about this: Full Spectrum Genesis G3 Battery from SportbikeTrackGear.com or Full Spectrum Pulse P3 Battery from SportbikeTrackGear.com

i still have the stock seat even tho i replaced nearly everything. i like the slim size which keep my feet planted. goin the fashion i am, im goin all out. so i plan to get the seat cover but wish to ask if anyone know if the gold gel from luimoto are any good? does it do what the company...

Took delivery of the R last night. Exceptional service and the 4th Duc I've bought from Melillimoto Ducati. If you live in the Southeast, I suggest to call Sebastian. Family run business, 100% attention on you, and he is one of the best wrenches in the game. Built engines for Bobby Fong...

Friend is looking at bikes and really liked the 848. I was wondering what other owners thought about their experiences with it? I don't want to recommend a bike that is as troublesome as my Pani to a newer rider.

Thinking about it, profile makes much more sense than the GoPro, my biggest complaint.

SO i financed some of the bike through Vystar credit union and they work closely with IWS Group. Basically for 1K which will be put on the back of my loan, it will cover me for up to 72 months. Heres what they are offering for my Panigale: Features • Low deductible ($25) • Transferable coverage...

Hey everyone, Looking to add a couple things on my S in the off season. I'm leaning towards the Gilles kit but stumbled across these. Any thoughts, any experience with this brand, etc? At $490 they seem/look like a great deal. Thanks in advance... - 4Racing Rearsets for Ducati 1199...

Ok, so as i was riding tonight i came up with an idea, and I'm probably losing a million dollars by making this "open source" however, what are your thoughts on designing some sort of very small led light on each side of your bike, that is aimed to make the DUCATI logo glow a little at night, so...

SATO RACING | Suspension Link Rod - Ducati 1199 Panigale Any suspension guru's care to comment on lowering the rear by 20mm?

I've been eyeing up a Matte White 796, since I took delivery of my 1199 in April, which my dealer still has in stock. Been offered a healthy discount on the 796, so am considering it. Its gonna be a bit of a tool bike for running/fooling around on and I still like the original design and...

Had a thought while straddling an "S" today at dealer,What do you guys think about a higher handlebar for us unfortunate souls that do not have twisties and need more comfort for straighter road riding. I'm thinking One inch riser for that Ultimate riding position.(In my case anyway where the...

Well I have an 1199S on order, but must admit after having read some of the new owner reports on here this past week or so, I might be having second thoughts about buying one. So the headshake/slight weave that I have heard about is a characteristic of the 1199 that is always there, or does it...

A few random thoughts: 1) Mid-range torque is huge. I am very surprised after seeing several dyno charts indicating that it has less mid-range torque than the 1198. Perhaps the Termi system and remap changes things? 2) Exhaust sound is a deep, full, baritone note - loud and thundering. Beware...

There is a Panigale S at Ducati World in Adelaide for a few days on display so I went down there this afternoon to have a close up look. The guys there let me sit on it for as long as I wanted and then we took it out into the car park to start it up. - The handlebars are wide but they...

I have never owned a bike with ABS. I don't ride in the rain and I don't race. I've seen various opinions on the option. For those that have experience with it, is it worth having?
