Thumbs up Panigale "Final Edition" and the V4 Replacment

Ducati have released a teaser trailer:



We "know" that this is going to be a Panigale "Final Edition", but we've heard reports that it will actually be a 1299R Final Edition, costing around £34,000 and be spec'ed just short of the Superleggera, but better than the 1299S and 1199R.

The official announcement will be made at Laguna Seca on Friday 7th July.

Once that is done, we can look forward to a reveal of the new V4 model.

This will be announced at EICMA, Milan in November.

Homepage pic

So - homepage pic...

Is that a trick of the light, or is the red darker than normal??

Either way - looks gorgeous... off out to buy a lottery ticket...

I think you're the first person who has said that they like it...

I think it looks way too much like the 1299S Anniversario; the colour scheme is almost identical. I know that this is a 1299R and has a different spec, but I would like to have seen a red bike with different graphics, maybe the R's aluminium tank and lots of carbon all over it.

Compare... which one is which?

yep, does look very similar... but definitely different.

funny - the red looks lighter/brighter in this pic than it does on the homepage... I still like it, but then I've always liked them a bit different... yellow, white on the 848...
