2013 1199 Ducati Panigale ABS Hi guys. It's time to sell my beautiful, immaculate Panigale. I bought the bike last year with the intention of getting back in to road riding after a few years off. Unfortunately due to the lack of time and a new born little daughter, I don't have enough time to get out and enjoy it. I purchased the bike from Pro Twins Ducati with just 107 miles on the clock last May, I have since covered just a further 850 miles. The bike has covered only 957 from new. The bike is in a brand new showroom condition and wants for nothing. The bike has the following extras fitted which will be included in the sale Ducati Performance Carbon Front Fender Ducati Performance Carbon Rear Hugger/Fender Ducati Performance Carbon Tail Tidy Ducati Performance Pillion Seat Cover I will also include the Lightech paddock stand within the sale which is also in the pictures along with all standard parts. The bike has never been on a track day or raced and is still on the original tyres fitted by the Ducati factory. All in this is a genuine bike which I will be very sad to see go. If you have any questions please feel free to send me a message. Im not in a rush to sell and won't be accepting silly low ball offers. £11995 Please feel free to give me a call on 07795523605 if you require further info or would like to arrange a viewing
Id say keep it....if it doesn't get used much just mothball/sorn it.....ive got 3 bikes which I don't use a great deal and none of them are going, if anything they're worth every penny just being in the garage as when I go out and take a look at them it does give me a feeling of "satisfaction" knowing that even if I don't get out on them - I own them....
And, just to add....ive got 3 kids, and for me having kids has been great ( I always wanted kids and always wanted 3 ) but, becoming a dad means that you leave behind quite a bit of your "own" life as you give it over to your kids and you do loose a little bit of your own identity, so, even if you don't use it and it doesn't get used from 6 months to the next, having it sitting there in the garage, for me, kind of reminds me a little bit of who I am as its ingrained into me....sounds a bit wet but with all of the stuff that comes with life, and kids etc etc its a nice reminder.... That for me was confirmed a few weeks back as someone came to the house that knew me but ive never mentioned bikes before and went out to the garage, and he followed, opened the garage door to find an RSV4, z1ooo and a supermoto mid build to which he replied "Fuck me, that's a hell of a garage....fair play....!"
I know what you mean. I'd love to keep it, but I've no interest in riding the roads anymore. I've got a Honda CBR1000RR track bike with a massive spec. So I won't be turning my back on bikes completely. If the bike was an 'S' model I'd 100% be keeping it.
Ah....well....forget everything i said then! Id love to race but cant afford to do it all....if i went l down the track route then id have to get rid of all thd road bikes....that would be too much....id need my bike fix at least once a week!
I bought the Pani wanting to get back In to road riding, but I just can't get on with road riding. It's not like it used to be. It's nolonger for me. I'll stick to the tracks..
I think track riding does that to you, makes road riding not seem worth the hassle when you've been tearing around a track all weekend. I think the Panigale is the sort of bike that you have to be putting the hours into riding it to get the most out of it so I'd keep it road legal but I think I'd happily just use a Supermoto for the road riding these days if I had one working. I already use a KTM 250exc two stroke enduro 50% of the time for short journeys. I'm not sure if it's a great way of keeping your licence but there's plenty of fun to be had hooliganising at lower speeds.
