Hi everyone, I'd like to introduce myself, I'm a proud new owner of my first ever Ducati, and my dream bike, a 1299 Panigale! Had loads of bikes in the past, my last being a Fireblade, but this is my first ever Ducati, and I'm loving it! Picked it up a few months ago, you may or may not recognise it as it's been on here before.
Like most folk on here and throughout the world your first Ducati is the most enjoyable ride there is for sure.
yeah, the exhaust and the wheels were the deal breaker. It's sooooooo loud though and as much as I love it, I really want to get it on track next year, which I'm not sure will be possible without putting the original system back on.
Nice!! Would love an Akra on my 1299, if nothing else for the weight saving. Happy to do a swap!!! LOL. Seriously, though, be careful. It's a lovely bike but quicker than my abilities and most other road users speed perceptions. Be safe.
