Ducati 1299 Panigale R Final Edition – When The End Tells the Whole Story

With the 1299 Panigale R Final Edition, Ducati celebrates the twin cylinder that marked the history of the Superbike World Championship.

With the Ducati 1299 Panigale R Final Edition, Ducati celebrates the twin cylinder that marked the history of the Superbike World Championship. The most powerful twin cylinder Ducati of all time, the Final Edition inherits its Superquadro engine from the 1299 Superleggera, alongside advanced electronic control systems based on racing experience, the end really does tell the whole story. 

A Tribute to the Twin Cylinder

From Marco Lucchinelli’s first victory with the 851 in 1988 during the first race in the history of the world championship of modified production models, to 2017 with the victories of Chaz Davies and Marco Melandri on the Panigale R, the twin cylinder from Borgo Panigale has always been a top performer of the Superbike Championship.

A Future Collector’s Item

The 1299 Panigale R Final Edition is produced in a numbered, unlimited series, and represents the perfect mix between high performance engine and racing chassis. The new livery, red rims and titanium exhaust make the 1299 Panigale R Final Edition a unique, collectable bike.

The Most Powerful Twin Cylinder

The Final Edition Superquadro is fully derived from the 1299 Superleggera with 209 hp at 11,000 rpm and 14.5 kgm at 9,000 rpm. Thanks to the very high power and dry weight of just 168 kg, the Final Edition achieves a weight to power ratio of 1.24 hp/kg.

Priced from £34,995, this flagship of the Superbikes is the final opportunity to own a Ducati 1299 Panigale R. Utilising the engine from the Superleggera to form a road homologated Superbike and with the electronics package it has on board has allowed for this to make perfect sense as a road bike. One word can describe this machine – Awesome!
