Ducati Panigale 2023 Replica – Limited edition Ducati collector’s edition

Ducati celebrates the conquest of the MotoGP, WorldSBK, and WorldSSP titles by creating five special Panigale series in collector’s editions, inspired by Francesco Bagnaia, Jorge Martín, and Marco Bezzecchi’s Desmosedici GP, Álvaro Bautista’s Panigale V4 R, and Nicolò Bulega’s Panigale V2. The Panigale V4 dedicated to Bagnaia and Bautista will have the yellow color scheme with which the two champions raced in Misano at the Grand Prix and SBK round, celebrating an iconic color in Ducati’s history and becoming even more iconic. The motorcycles were presented during the press conference that anticipated the “Champions in Party” event, with which Ducati celebrated its historic success alongside its enthusiasts. 2023 was an incredible year for Ducati: no other motorcycle manufacturer was able to win in the MotoGP® and WorldSBK® World Championships for two consecutive years. A dream result, complemented by the conquest of the Supersport World title and the second and third places in the MotoGP World Championship standings, achieved thanks to the exceptional work of engineers, teams, and riders. A triumph that Ducati wants to celebrate with five unique motorcycles, true jewels in limited and numbered editions.

Each individual copy of the series will be made unique by the original signature of the pilot placed on the tank, a signature that will then be protected as a layer of transparent varnish. The five replicas celebrate the race numbers of the pilots to whom they are dedicated: the 63 of Pecco Bagnaia, the 19 of Álvaro Bautista, the 89 of Jorge Martín, the 72 of Marco Bezzecchi, and the 11 of Nicolò Bulega.

Just like the competition bikes they are inspired by, the Panigale 2023 Racing Replicas are only available in single-seat configuration. Each one is embellished with a laser-engraved aluminum steering yoke with the model name and progressive number, as well as a dedicated key and animation for the dashboard when the ignition is turned on. In addition, the seat is made of a special material, with the pilot’s logo displayed just like on the racing bike.

The Panigale V4 Bagnaia 2023 World Champion Replica is inspired by the most exclusive color scheme of the 2023 season, the Ducati Yellow with which the Ducati Lenovo Team’s Desmosedici GP raced at the San Marino and Riviera di Rimini GP in Misano. Production is limited to 263 units.

The Panigale V4 Bautista 2023 World Champion Replica showcases the Ducati Yellow color of the Panigale V4 R with which Álvaro raced in the rounds of Misano and in race 2 in Jerez de la Frontera. The color scheme, specifically, is inspired by the one with which Bautista became WorldSBK World Champion for the second time, in Jerez. In addition, just like the Panigale V4 R from which it drew inspiration, it is enhanced by a brushed aluminum fuel tank, carbon fiber wings, and light gray forged aluminum wheels from Marchesini. Production is limited to 219 units. The Panigale V4 Martín 2023 Racing Replica features the official colors of the Prima Pramac team’s Desmosedici GP, made even more unique by the front fender in carbon fiber. Production is limited to 189 units. The Panigale V4 Bezzecchi 2023 Racing Replica is inspired by the yellow and black color scheme of the Mooney VR46 team’s Desmosedici GP. Production is limited to 72 units.

These four Panigale V4 are based on the “S” model, and are enriched by various Ducati Performance components that make them even more valuable and effective on the road and on the track. The technical equipment includes the adoption of the nine-disc STM-EVO SBK dry clutch and the homologated Akrapovič exhaust, which is 2 kg lighter than the standard Panigale V4 exhaust. The Brembo braking system is enhanced with Stylema® R calipers and an MCS pump with remote adjustment. The adjustable footpegs are Rizoma aluminum. The windshield is the racing version.

Other technical details that characterize these special bikes are the heat shield for the rear exhaust headers, the alternator cover, the rear fender, and the front brake ducts, all made of carbon fiber. Also in carbon fiber, combined with titanium, is the protection for the swinging arm.

All Panigale V4 Replica bikes are made even closer to the competition bikes they are inspired by thanks to a series of accessories, such as the open carbon fiber clutch cover*, the kits for removing the license plate holder and mirrors*, the racing aluminum fuel cap*, and the GPS module that allows displaying lap times and sector times obtained on the track on the instrument panel.

The Panigale V2 Bulega 2023 World Champion Replica showcases the red/black colors of the Panigale V2 from the Aruba.it Racing WorldSSP team, with which Nicolò Bulega won the world title. Production is limited to 111 units.

The Panigale V2 also receives Öhlins suspensions and steering damper and Akrapovič racing silencers*, which increase maximum power by 2.5% and maximum torque by 2%, also contributing to reducing the weight of the bike by 5 kg, as well as a lithium-ion battery. The Rizoma footrests are adjustable, made of aluminum from the block. The front and rear fenders, chain protection, clutch cover, swingarm protection, and shock protection are made of carbon fiber. The Panigale V2 dedicated to Bulega can get even closer to the competition bike with the license plate and mirror removal kit*, and the racing tank cap*.

Each bike comes with a certificate of authenticity and will be delivered in a wooden transport box with dedicated graphics and a custom cover for the bike.
