1199 Panigale Launch Party

Heres a few pics from our launch party at Ducati Manchester - for those who couldn't attend.

The bike was unveiled at 5.00pm to a packed showroom.

We were joined by one of our race team sponsors - Silks - and we are not sure whether it was their presence, or the sight of the Panigale running outside our store, that caused traffic chaos on Washway Road!! We can confirm however, that it sounds very much like a "proper" Ducati!!

The bike unveiled is a Demo bike, so if you would like to take it out - feel free to pop down or give us a call to book a test ride. These are some of the comments we've had so far off customers who have ridden it....

Astonishing
Unbelievably light
Handling is awesome
When you hit 7000rpm - Oh My God!
The Quickshifter system is mint
That was like being strapped to a scud missile..

The girls stopped the traffic outside - particularly when they climbed astride the bikes!!

Any with the hot blond leg over bike??

Er, seriously, only one of those might be considered OK, none of those girls are hot!

Whilst true are we rally saying that a group of pole dancers was the best they could get, the best looking thing there is the bike, see what they did there, very clever!!
