Ducati Panigale V4 2018

A Panigale tornou-se muito mais acessível na versão V4 de 2018 do que antes. O motor, em combinação com o pacote eletrônico, ainda não é tão impecável e estéril quanto um quatro em linha, mas na prática é uma verdadeira bênção para Ducatisti - e uma surpresa positiva para os pilotos de outras marcas. A Panigale V4 também surpreendeu com um conforto de condução tolerável na estrada rural e um nível agradável de estabilidade. O progresso aqui foi claramente na direção certa. A nova V4 é mais forte e mais rápida, mas também mais fácil e mais agradável de conduzir.
Ducati 1299 Panigale S 2015

A Panigale 1299 S é um claro passo em frente em relação à antiga Panigale. Os fãs da Ducati que não estavam totalmente satisfeitos com o modelo anterior podem agora encontrar o seu grande amor na nova máquina. As muitas mudanças na moto tornaram-na mais forte, mais rápida e também um pouco mais manobrável. Os condutores rápidos e experientes que gostam de 2 cilindros não têm outra escolha e ficarão satisfeitos. O controlo de tração, a eletrónica do motor para controlar o travão motor e, claro, a suspensão eletrónica da Öhlins são realmente muito bons. Mas mesmo a nova Panigale não é uma mota com a qual os pilotos menos ágeis consigam encontrar bons tempos praticamente sozinhos, como no banco de uma BMW, por exemplo. A Ducati tem o seu próprio carácter, que nem todos gostam, mas que encanta os Ducatisti até certo ponto.
