Description
Update 12/12: A keen eyed member of the Iconic community spotted the missing intakes on the bike. Iconic spoke to the seller and he removed them believing they restrict airflow and has since misplaced them. They will not be included in the sale.

Introduced in 2012, the 1199 Panigale was a tremendous step up from the 1198. In their First Ride, Cycle World said “Its V-Twin makes power like no two-cylinder engine before it, and the way the chassis behaves, the way the bike feels, blows the performance window wide open and obliterates the memory of past Ducati superbikes.”
The new Superquadro motor put out a claimed 195 horsepower, making it the world’s most powerful production twin at the time, and with a curb weight of 414 pounds, Ducati claimed it had the highest power-to-weight ratio of any production bike when released. That ratio got even better with the R model, which was released to make the bike eligible for World Superbike racing. It featured titanium valves and connecting rods, two-ring pistons, and a tungsten-balanced crank, as well as Öhlins suspension, forged Marchesini wheels, lengthened wheelbase, and a titanium/carbon fiber Akrapovic exhaust with a Race ECU.
A year later, Ducati released the even stronger 1199 R. This World Superbike homologation model weighed less, thanks to titanium connecting rods, lighter flywheel, and lots more carbon fiber; and more powerful, thanks to the track only Termignoni exhaust system capable of 202 bhp. All these changes bumped the top speed from 186 to 202 mph.
This example is VIN: ZDM14BPWXEB014163. The seller purchased the bike from Monroe Motors in San Francisco ten years ago.
During his ownership the seller has covered approximately 700 miles. The odometer shows 756 miles.
