2017 Ducati 1299 Superleggera, 1299 SL like new! Only 54 miles -Full exhaust installed. -Carbon Lower custom to use W/ Kick stand -DP Eliminator License plate -All original parts -Ducati Black Box -Ducati Cover -Ducati Block off plates -Ducati Manuals - 2 Keys <br /> <br /> 2017 Ducati 1299 Superleggera <p>Ducati takes the world of Supersport road bikes to a completely new level by presenting the 1299 Superleggera, the first standard street bike with carbon fibre frame, swinging arm, subframe and wheels. The 1299 Superleggera is the greatest expression of engineering, technology and performance ever put into mass production by a motorcycle manufacturer. </p><p>The quintessence of Ducati is exclusive in everything, even in the limited number of these motorcycles produced: only 500, for a lucky few Ducatistas.</p><p>The fairing, also made of carbon fibre, is just the tip of the iceberg of a unique project that only a brand like Ducati with racing in its DNA could accomplish. </p><p>In fact, under the fairing hides the most powerful version of the Superquadro. With its 215 horsepower*, the Desmodromic EURO 4 engine on the 1299 Superleggera is the most powerful twin-cylinder ever produced, representing the best of Ducati technology. </p><p>The exclusivity of the 1299 Superleggera is underlined by the new electronic package that uses an inertial platform system with six axes (6D IMU - Inertial Measurement Unit) to manage the electronic controls that on this bike rise to a level of primacy. This system has made it possible to further develop the Ducati Traction Control EVO (DTC EVO) presented on the 1299 Panigale S Anniversario thanks to the introduction of the Ducati Slide Control (DSC) which ensures even better performance when exiting corners.</p><p>The 1299 Superleggera is also the first Ducati Superbike to be equipped with Ducati Power Launch (DPL), as well as the Engine Brake Control (EBC) already present on previous versions, reaching the incredible dry weight of 156 kg.</p><strong>At Ducati since 2002, Alessandro Valia is an Official Ducati Test Rider for models in production</strong><p>in Borgo Panigale. Having had a career in Superbike, he knows the racing world well. While the need to always push the envelope is part of his DNA, his profession requires a certain level of sensitivity and understanding of more technical languages. His testing activity of the 1299 Superleggera provided an unexpected experience that enabled him to appreciate the full power of the limited edition that, with its cutting-edge technology, perfectly expresses the Quintessence of Ducati.</p><strong>What were your impressions of the 1299 Superleggera during your first test run?</strong><p>My first time with the beast (that's what I call it when we are together) was at Mugello. Just out of the pit I understood that it was something out of the ordinary, clearly built for performance, with a very proud attitude, almost brazen, in every aspect of the ride - it acce

<p><strong>Time Attack</strong></p><p>Ducati expands the Panigale V4 family by introducing the new numbered Panigale V4 SP version, which certifies the return after many years of the initials “SP” (Sport Production) on the fairing of a Ducati super sports bike.</p><p>Introduced for the first time on the legendary Ducati 851, this abbreviation identified the versions that formed the basis for the development of the racing bikes used in the Sport Production Championship, precursor of the current Superstock.</p><p>Even today, in Ducati, the acronym "SP" is used to recognize a production bike with specific technical equipment that makes it faster on the track.</p><p><strong>Features may include:</strong></p><p><strong>CONCEPT</strong></p><ul><li>New Panigale v4 SP</li></ul><p>Thanks to its technical equipment, the new Panigale V4 SP is the ideal bike for the amateur who wants to hit the track and be fast immediately. The bike is easy to ride and requires little physical effort, regardless of your riding skills. The quality of the bike under braking is extraordinary, as is the lightness in going into the lean and the tendency to close the line. An amateur rider on the "SP" will be faster than if he were riding the more demanding "R" version.</p><p><strong>PRE-TEST RACING LIVERY</strong></p><ul><li>Winter test Livery</li></ul><p>Essential and fascinating, the “Winter Test” livery that characterizes the bike is inspired by that of the Ducati Corse bikes used in the pre-season tests of the MotoGP and SBK Championships. The matt black of the fairings, combined with the matt black of the carbon of the rims and wings, contrasts with the bright red accents and the shine of the exposed brushed aluminum tank, giving a truly professional look to the bike.</p><p><strong>CHASSIS</strong></p><ul><li>Lighter chassis</li></ul><p>The new Panigale V4 SP also stands out for being equipped with contents derived from the Superleggera V4, such as the lightweight 5-spoke carbon wheels, the exclusive Brembo Stylema R® front brake calipers and the Brembo front brake pump with MCS (Multiple Click System) and "remote adjusting" device. In addition: the steering head machined from billet which shows the progressive number of the bike and the adjustable rider footpegs in billet aluminum with carbon heel guards.</p>

<p><strong>240.5 hp. 16,500 rpm. This is Racing</strong></p><p>Ducati presents the new Panigale V4 R: the bike that adopts technical solutions previously reserved for MotoGP and WorldSBK Championship.</p><p>The closest production model to a competition bike ever.</p><p><strong>Features may include:</strong></p><p><strong>Pure racing spirit</strong></p><p>The road version of the Panigale V4 R undergoes significant development, upgrading in all areas to be faster on the track and even more race-oriented.</p><p><strong>ENGINE</strong></p><ul><li>A heart beating 16,500 rpm</li></ul><p>The heart of the Panigale V4 R is the new 998 cc Desmosedici Stradale R, an engine capable of reaching a maximum engine speed of 16,500 rpm in sixth gear (16,000 in the other ratios) and delivering a maximum power of 207 hp @ 13,500 rpm, absolute benchmark values in the panorama of supersports bikes of the same displacement.</p><p><strong>ELECTRONICS</strong></p><ul><li>Race-oriented electronics</li></ul><p>The greater effectiveness of the new Panigale V4 R in circuit use is also obtained thanks to the adoption of all the electronic evolutions already introduced on the Panigale V4 '22 and '23, with the expansion and evolution of the Power Modes, new “Track Evo” display on the dashboard, engine maps with calibration dedicated to each single gear, refinements to the Ducati Traction Control and the Ride By Wire system, but also the adoption of the Engine Brake Control EVO 2 strategy, the new strategy for the DQS and the cooling fan control update.</p><p><strong>CHASSIS</strong></p><ul><li>Improved track-feeling</li></ul><p>To increase nimbleness, rider feeling and grip, the chassis follows the evolutionary direction traced by the Panigale V4/V4 S with the 2022 model, while maintaining fully mechanical suspension adjustment. At the front, the Öhlins NPX25/30 pressurized fork increases its travel by 5 mm compared to the previous "R". This technical solution, combined with an Öhlins TTX36 shock absorber and a standard adjustment of the swingarm pivot to the +1 position, increases the rear height by 20 mm. In this way, a higher centre of gravity is achieved and therefore greater nimbleness in corner entry and changes of direction.</p><p><strong>AERODYNAMICS</strong></p><ul><li>Aerodynamic development</li></ul><p>The aerodynamic package has been revised with a view to greater efficiency: the new two-element wings (main + flap) guarantee the same aerodynamic load, but are more compact and thinner (respectively by 40% and 50%).</p>
