Title: 1199 Panigale S Test ride @ Ducati Indy Post by: vw151 on May 12, 2012, 02:17:34 PM Amazing bike!!! So easy to ride, So light, and so deceptive. It wasn't scary and didn't even feel scary fast.... until you look down at the speedo and realize, holy shit this thing is fast.
The S model has electronically adjustable ohlins suspension DTS (ducati traction control) and a color LCD dash, that tells you all kinds of cool stuff. It's a lot like the new multistrada except in a superbike with 195hp. Anyway, here are some pictures and I'll have a video up in a bit as well.

And there is no way the seat could be any hotter than a 999 on a summer day!! :P It's like there is a BBQ pit under the seat and your butt and inner thighs are the brisket!! [bang] Title: Re: 1199 Panigale S Test ride @ Ducati Indy Post by: Uncle Mofo on May 13, 2012, 01:06:23 PM Nice to see Matt smiling [thumbsup]

I thought it would be more manageable because of the underbike exhaust.

[bang] It certainly rivals the 999 in heat under the seat. Matt had it at grattan the weekend prior. ;) Title: Re: 1199 Panigale S Test ride @ Ducati Indy Post by: Uncle Mofo on May 13, 2012, 06:35:22 PM Matt had it at grattan the weekend prior. ;) No wonder he was still grinning! |
