Ducati Panigale R - MOTOR GERR

Ducati’s £28,995 Panigale R is being launched these days at Imola, simply 48 hours after the World Superbike circus has left the demanding and historic race track. Senior MCN avenue tester Adam ‘Chad’ Child is certainly one of a very pick few to be invited at the release of this amazing piece of exotica.

“We’ve been given the possibility to trip Ducati’s all new Panigale R around the historical and exquisite Imola race track. The new R is essentially a street-criminal race motorcycle, a homologation unique allowing Ducati to compete in World Superbike at the highest level. This manner that even as the bottom version Panigale and Panigale S have emerge as 1299s, the R keeps the vintage 1198 potential to conform to WSB policies. The smaller ability doesn’t imply much less power, in fact Ducati are quoting an astonishing 205bhp from the water-cooled, L-Twin. What’s more exceptional is the load; a impressive 162kg dry, making it the lightest motorcycles in its elegance by using some distance,” says Adam.

Controlling all that energy and light-weight chassis is conventional Öhlins race suspension, now not the digital objects you locate at the 1299 Panigale S. Up front there’s a completely adjustable inverted 43mm TIX30 Öhlins fork, while the a TTX36 unit takes care of the rear. On top of the traditional race suspension is a huge list of rider aids, EBD, (Engine Brake Control), DQS (Ducati Quick-Shift), DWC (Ducati Wheelie Control), DTC (Ducati Traction Control) with IMU (Internal Measurement Unit) and cornering ABS.  The IMU works to degree acceleration in relation to three axes and calculates the roll and the pitch of the motorbike. It additionally works along side the Bosch nine.1MP control system and is the primary brain of the brand new Panigale R.

Everything has been designed for the music, it’s as mild and race targeted as viable, even the battery is a light-weight Lithium object to keep valuable weight.

“I’m about to go out heading in the right direction now, so test again later nowadays for my first impressions of this visceral track bike,” says Adam from Imola pitlane.
