Ducati 1199 Panigale: the wait is almost over

Lol i imagine this bike will also create a breed of revolutionarily douchy duc owners as well.

youse guys are 100% correct about them unda-da-bike muffs - quite Buell-like [yes, KTM copied em, too]

wonder if I can snag 1 [or 2?] OEM pieces off CL for my Cyclone, once aftermarket cans are available......
 
its not even the most interesting part of the review. just the first para. I cross-polinated before I finished reading it.

the stuff about the shaft centerlines, and swingarm length was better. somebody get there with a tape measure.

callling BLS!
 
That's what you got out of that write up?:wtf

Compared to all the other reviews, yes.

It still isn’t anywhere as close to as fast as the S1000RR but since its so light (without question its the lightest bike in the class) and delivers a high level or rear end traction you’ll be surprised by how fast the thing goes

and

In terms of electronics I’m still not sold on Ducati’s traction control and the quick-shifter could be faster too

I really want the bike to kick ass, btw. I'm not hating. I love the looks and I'll probably pick one up after a year or two.
 
None of that says he's unimpressed. If he was, he wouldn't say he's pumped about it.
:dunno
