While the 1299 Panigale takes cubes and watts, the R version continues to defend the colors in the Superbike championship. This is his mission! But due to regulations, there is no question of going above the 1.2 liter displacement. Eh oh, the civilian version can pump up the throbbing, spit more horses and shamelessly derail as the Panigale R has to limit its bodybuilding ambitions. It’s not very fair play…
Rest assured: in addition to its high-end equipment, the Panigale R is entitled to a small testosterone cure. The very finely revised silhouette, with the same style attributes as the 1299, remains the beautiful exercise praised by ducatists and other enthusiasts. Within the aluminum hull frame, engine manufacturers have found horses without affecting the displacement. Drivers and experienced, the top Panigale has sent no less than 205 horses since 2016.
10 horses won! Not bad, when the standard sister benefited from an additional 86 cm3 to glean the same benefit. But be careful, not the same temperament. The small dose of torque in addition and the big artillery, the Panigale R must go to seek them further, higher, stronger. The Superquadro thus keeps the fidelity to its pedigree: a real racing engine. With a little more titanium (for the exhaust valves), tungsten, a crankshaft balanced pile-hair, a compression ratio inflated to 13.2: 1 and aggressive camshafts at the cleat, the pistarde promises big sensations..
The Ohlins suspensions are as usual of the game. If the 1299 Panigale S receives elements with electronic adjustments, the Panigale R retains a more classic approach with fully adjustable suspensions but manually. Hence the charm of fine-tuning your suspensions between each session with the set of tools waiting on the maid in the stand, and a certain weight gain. The servomotors + the wiring + the suspension control unit, it weighs.
The changes also concern a dry speed for the machine. A new Lithium-Ion battery and a series of lightweight parts save 6 kilos. The Panigale R now drops to 162 units dry, and 184 units wet. Lighter and more powerful than a Desmosedici RR … The wheelbase has been increased by 5 mm for more stability at high speeds.
And she knows how to have fun: Marchesini forged aluminum rims, complete Akrapovic titanium line, Brembo monobloc M50 calipers, automatic tire size calibration system and final transmission ratio, DDA + data acquisition with GPS and visualization of lean angle, 4-position adjustable single-sided swingarm pivot point, Bosch 9.1 MP sport ABS with rear wheel lift control, 8-level DTC traction control, shifter for up and down gears without disengaging, UMI inertial unit to continuously measure angle and pitch in order to improve the performance of electronic aids, DWC anti-wheeling, RFM engine brake adjustment, riding modes, handlebar controls for DTC, DWC or RFM , TFT dashboard … Don’t throw it away! A space shuttle, this Panigale R.
Although the Panigale R is equipped with certain carbon parts, we still regret the disappearance of the complete fairing made of this material. Especially considering the price of the machine. From the 996 R to the 1198 R, the best Ducati Superbikes have always given their owners this more noble appearance. A superb view of the tank, partially uncovered with paint in order to admire the brushed aluminum, instantly revives the glamor and racing side..
The Panigale R evolves in the pure sense of sportiness as its function requires. Gateway between passion and competition, the most extreme Ducati in the catalog expects only two things from its rider: a big heart and a big check.
