Milan, 7 November 2024 – A 2025 range enriched by the new Panigale V2 and Streetfighter V2 presented on Tuesday, November 5th, the Ducatis racing in the world competitions, and appointments on the stand and in the outdoor area. These are the ingredients that make the Borgo Panigale company one of the main protagonists of EICMA 2024, where it is ready to welcome all enthusiasts until Sunday, 10 November, in Hall 15, stand N02.

A stand full of novelties
The stars of the stand are the two novelties equipped with the new Ducati V2 engine, presented with the sixth episode of the Ducati World Première 2025. The new Panigale V2 is the lightest Panigale ever and marks a new, historic chapter in the history of Ducati's mid-size sports bikes, while the Streetfighter V2 2025 transfers its concepts to a naked version thanks to the Fight Formula.

The new Panigale V4 is present on the Ducati stand with the V4, V4 S and a high-performance version set up for track use. Welcomed with great enthusiasm by the press and public around the world last July, the new Panigale V4 boasts a completely revised chassis and innovative electronic solutions such as the Ducati Vehicle Observer (DVO) and Race eCBS.

The Multistrada family, recent protagonist of the international launch, is present with the V4 and V4 S models, which become even more performant, enjoyable and safe thanks to innovations such as the DVO system, extended deactivation, new strategies for the Skyhook semi-active suspension and eCBS braking system, rear fog light and Automatic Lowering Device. Not forgetting, of course, the V4 Pikes Peak , which, with its Ohlins SmartEC suspension and 17-inch rims, is designed for the sportiest Multistradisti.

In the Ducati Scrambler space, the public can see for the first time live the new Icon Dark, Full Throttle and above all the Scrambler 10th Anniversary Rizoma Edition, a collector's bike made of course in collaboration with Rizoma, enhanced by the splendid details in Metal Rose and produced in 500 numbered examples.

The Hypermotard family is of course also present on the stand, with the 950 RVE and the highly appreciated 698 Mono in the two versions, standard and RVE, and the DesertX with the Rally models and the new Discovery. Completing the appearances on stage are the Diavel V4, voted ‘Best of the Best’ in the context of the prestigious Red Dot Award 2024, and the Monster, in both standard and SP versions.

E-Bike enthusiasts will also be able to admire the Powerstage RR, and the new apparel collection 2025 will be on display along with the innovative Ducati Smart Air jacket, made in collaboration with Dainese.

The racing Ducatis
The DesmosediciGP that Pecco Bagnaia will race two weeks from now, in the final showdown against his team-mate Jorge Martin, could not be missing from the stand. Ducati won the team world title in Thailand, which goes alongside the constructors' title won at the Emilia-Romagna GP, at the Misano Adriatico circuit. At his side, of course, will be the Panigale V4 R world vice-champion with rookie Nicolò Bulega , in an exciting season that saw Ducati win its 20th World Constructors' Superbike title. At their side also the V21L electric prototype, engaged in the FIM Enel MotoE World Championship, with the special livery inspired by Ducati's sporting history.

Moreover, the stand will also feature the Desmo450 MX, Italian MX1 champion at its debut with Alessandro Lupino, hosted in an area dedicated to the new adventure undertaken by Ducati. Next to the bike, on the totem that retraces the victorious experience of the competition prototype, there is a QR Code that allows you to request information and book the bike.

All Ducati-branded appointments
EICMA visitors will also be able to experience the Ducati passion thanks to the events that will animate the week. Riders and friends of Ducati will meet fans at the stand. On Wednesday 6 November, Álvaro Bautista was the first protagonist of the Meet & Greet. On the following days it will be the turn of the Superbike world vice-champion Nicolò Bulega (Thursday 7, 11:00 - 11:30 and 16:30 - 17:00), and the Desmo450 MX riders. Nine-time Italian champion Alessandro Lupino and nine-time world champion Tony Cairoli will meet the public on Thursday 7, from 4:00 to 4:30 p.m., and Friday 8, from 11:00 to 11:30 a.m.

Also on Friday 8, the new Supersport World Champion Adrian Huertas will greet Ducatisti (16:30 - 17:00), who will also return on Saturday 9 from 11:00 to 11:30, while shortly afterwards, from 12:00 to 13:00, it will be the turn of ten-time Italian champion and official test rider for the DesmosediciGP, Michele Pirro. Also on Saturday, at 13:00, the Ducati stand will host the Pertamina Enduro VR46 team rider Marco Bezzecchi, who is competing in MotoGP on the Ducati Desmosedici.

Kevin Vandi, Supermotard rider and one of the protagonists of the launch video of the Hypermotard 698 Mono, will further enrich Saturday's event with a 4pm appointment. Fans of YouTube star Fil will have the chance to meet him on Saturday 9 from 3pm to 3.30pm, and then again on Sunday 10, from 11am to 11.30am.

In the Motolive area, on Thursday 7 and Friday 8 there will be the two heats of the Champions Charity Race reserved to the twin-cylinder bikes, in which the Ducati DesertX Rally will challenge the rivals driven by Antoine Meo and Danilo Petrucci. The races will be run over the two days from 14:00 to 15:00, with prize-giving ceremonies to follow, from 15:00 to 15:30. Danilo will start the race on Thursday, while Antoine will race on Friday.

Moreover, for the entire duration of the event, in the exhibition ‘EICMA: 110 anni di design a due route” (110 years of two-wheels design), set up at the South Gate entrance, the public will be able to admire a Ducati 916 - which celebrated its 30th anniversary in 2024 - a Monster 900, and a splendid Superleggera V4.

Also inside Hall 15, in position U29, it will be possible to buy Ducati merchandising at the stand of the official dealer Daemon Race . Finally, those who want to experience the virtual experience of a lap on a MotoGP bike on the Misano Adriatico circuit will be able to do so on a Panigale V4 R in the simulator set up in the EICMA Gaming Arena, in Hall 9.
