2014 Ducati 899 Panigale First Ride Review

Not every rider needs a 200 horsepower Superbike on the street. That’s why Ducati created the 899 Panigale. With a more manageable engine size and attractive price tag (starting at $14,995), the 899 opens up the Ducati superbike experience to a bigger audience. But can the Junior Panigale deliver the thrilling experience of its bigger Twin?

THE DIFFERENCES

It’s obvious by the way it looks that the 899 shares a lot in common with its bolder brother. So much so that it’s easier to note the differences than to write about the new features. (If you’re not up to speed on the Panigale platform’s tech details check out the 2012 Ducati 1199 Panigale First Look and the Ducati 1199 Panigale Superquadro Engine Info.
