Ducati 1299 Panigale S 2015

The Panigale 1299 S is a clear step forward from the old Panigale. Ducati fans who were not entirely satisfied with the previous model may now find their great love in the new machine. The many changes to the bike have made it stronger, faster and also a little more manoeuvrable. Fast and experienced riders who love 2-cylinders have no other choice anyway and will be happy. Traction control, engine electronics to control the engine brake and of course the electronic suspension from Öhlins are really good stuff. But even the new Panigale is not a motorbike with which not so nimble riders will find good times virtually on their own, like in the saddle of a BMW, for example. The Ducati has its own character, which not everyone likes, but which enchants Ducatisti to some extent.

The Panigale has become much more accessible in the 2018 V4 version than before. The engine, in combination with the electronics package, is still not as flawless and sterile as an inline four, but in practice it is a real blessing for Ducatisti - and a positive surprise for riders of other brands. The Panigale V4 also surprised with tolerable riding comfort on the country road and a pleasant level of stability. Progress here was clearly in the right direction. The new V4 is stronger and faster but also easier and more pleasant to ride.
