I have brake drag on my 14' 1199 R track bike (1500 track miles). When I spin the front wheel on the front stand it'll only spin 1 revolution, and you can hear the rotor dragging on the pads. So far I've tested the following: * Cleaned the calipers thoroughly (simple green /w tooth brush) *...

Second time ever on the on the track. I had a blast. I'm keeping my Pani in track mode, no longer riding in the street. I think I may purchase another more "street friendly, ie comfy" Ducati for the streets. I also put slicks on for the time on the track. I immediately felt the improvement...

Finally had my first track day, ever. Took an ART course beforehand and read through Keith Code's books too and that prepped me enough to not dump my bike on turn 1 (a decreasing radius off-camber turn). Ran 32/32 for my tire pressure (Supercorsa SPs) off of what the tire tech recommended...

I am posting this on my honeymoon and I am copy and pasting my Facebook post which has a mini review :-) The Ducati Riding Experience (Track Master) at the Mugello racetrack was unreal! The Ducati 1299s was amazing and is a bit different from my 1199 Panigale R in a good way, the clutchless...

Hey Gang. Ducati Detroit will be hosting a track day run by STT at Gingerman on Monday, September 28. Our track day is open to all riders of all skill levels! The following bikes will be available for demo rides: 1299s Panigale 899 Panigale Monster 1200s Hypermotard SP Multistrada...

After riding on the track past couple of months I've decided to ride my bike there exclusively. My question is how often do you change your oil when you are more of a track rider than road. (and any other routine "track bike" maintenance besides tires). I understand there are many factors to...

Two more track comparison between actual superbikes, the first made in Germany (a little bit older, don't know if somebody already posted the link), the second in Switzerland. The first here, written in german. Result: 1. Aprilia RSV4 RF / 2. BMW S 1000 RR & Ducati 1299 Panigale S / 4. Yamaha...

Considering a dedicated track bike with slicks and possibly modest performance mods, although stock would be fine. Potential for easy silencer mods to pass some track sound limits rather than trying to change my 1199S to meet them would be preferable. Enjoy the 1199S on the track but enhancing...

Title says it.. indy ducati track day the monday after the Indianapolis moto gp. Going to be a gorgeous weekend and track day... sign up it sells out

Anyone run the DP Track Body w/light inserts? If so, how is the fit and quality? The bike would be multi-purpose street and track so I thought it may be easier to swap the oem street body and DP track kit vs. a full set of track skins.

What do you guys think of these steering stop protectors, for track riding? R&G Steering Stop Protectors - Panigale | LS0005BK So one of my steering stops is broken off, which seems to be a common problem that can happen even if the bike just falls off the stand, etc. I don't see a new...

has been running 29/28, and yesterday i tried 31/28, feels pretty good what do you guys run? and how is the experience? thanks

Has anyone had this happen? I explained these are untimed events but even a supervisor insisted they don't cover ANY track use, even instructional events. Well ....-

Like the title says STT hosting a 2 day at putnam park. Be there

The St. Louis-based Midwest Cafe Racing Association has organized a track weekend at Hallett Raceway on July 18th and 19th. I was curious if anybody was planning on going? I will be there. :) See: Hallett Motor Racing Circuit-JULY info on Jul 18, 2015 (013668) | MotorsportReg.com It is a fun...

Hey Guys, I'm doing a track day with Champions ride days this Sunday (12th) at QR. Any local guys want to come and play? If so I've started a group booking so if we get 6 guys we each get a $25 discount. Already have 4 booked so let me know if you're keen. Would be cool to get a few...

2015 Six-Way Superbike Track Shootout + Video Although they picked the RF #1 and the BMW #2, some high praise for the 1299 (although down on power again - 175 - perhaps another incorrect dyno test?) Chandler was also impressed with the updated Superquadro engine. "With this bike being a...

I bought this bike for 1 month. I wanted a Panigale to do the canadian SBK. I made a deal with the store to get it cheaper. They had a salvage 899. After looking with Ducati, the frame's are the same, so I made an exchange so that they keeps a frame with papers in addition to leaving the...
