For the 2012 model year, the top of the Ducati superbike line was the 1199 Panigale S Tricolore. It’s quite a mouthful, but it’s also quite a bike.
The 1199 Panigale S was already packed with impressive features like Ducati Traction Control, Ducati Quick Shifter, Ducati Electronic Suspension (made by Öhlins), full LED lighting, carbon fiber front fender, and forged Marchesini wheels – not to mention the 195 horsepower superquadro L-twin engine.
To create the “Tricolore”, Ducati then added the beautiful red/white/green livery, racing ABS, Ducati Data Analyser (DDA) datalogger with GPS assist, and titanium Termignoni exhausts which pump up the power even more. In dyno testing, MCN saw 177 hp/90 lb-ft at the rear wheel with the stock exhaust (195 hp claimed at crank) – Ducati claimed it had the highest horsepower-to-weight ratio ever in its class. With the Termis equipped? The MCN dyno reported 186 hp/95 lb-ft at the rear wheel, so you got some extra oomph to back up the new look.
This example is VIN: ZDM14BPW0CB001113. The seller acquired it from Motohio. “I’m only the 2nd owner of the bike. Both the original owner and I have kept the bike in a climate controlled environment during winter.”
During their ownership, the seller has covered 2,918 miles. The odometer shows 6,334 miles.
Maintenance:
“All maintenance has been done by Motohio. They’ll have all the entire documentation you need and from the 1st owner as well!”
Mechanical Issues:
“No mechanical issue at all. The only thing that needed replaced was the housing for the hi-beam switch, it snapped off, and Ducati makes you buy the entire unit that slides onto the clip-on.”
Modifications:
“The original owner also purchased the Termignoni titanium exhaust upgrade from the factory. I purchased the SC Project exhaust (sounds way better in my opinion, but that is subjective). For the Ducati purist, I have saved all the original OEM parts that came on the bike! Original factor exhaust, factory Termignoni exhaust, levers, resets, etc.”
