It seems Ducati are going all out to milk even more money from potential customers with the announcement today that they are releasing two replicas based on the Panigale V4 platform of Pecco Bagnaia's bike and Alvaro Bautista's. Essentially a paint job and a clear coated signature signed by the rider on the tank, plus a sprinkling from their accessories parts bin. Price? A snip at £55,995! (around US$66,074 at current exchange rates)
First, here's the blurb:
For the first time in Ducati's history we are World Champions in both major championships: MotoGP® e WSBK®. To mark this occasion, we produced two unique bikes: two series of super special Panigale V4, featuring the liveries of Pecco Bagnaia no. 63 and Álvaro Bautista no. 19. As a tribute to Ducati's founding date, 1926, these were produced in an extremely limited quantity, just 260 units each. Each tank will be autographed in original by our champion to create a unique and inimitable bike. These exclusive bikes will be assigned with priority to the most loyal and passionate Ducatisti with a maximum of one per type per client.
Here's the spec list:
