Limited Edition Ducati 1299 Panigale S Anniversario Announced

Ducati revealed a new 90th anniversary edition of the 1299 Panigale S this weekend at WorldDucati Week. The limited edition (only 500 will be produced) Ducati 1299 Panigale SAnniversario sports a new color scheme, slightly longer wheelbase, several lighter components and updated electronics including a new traction control system that allows the Panigale to drift around corners.

The Anniversario edition receives an all-new “EVO” traction and wheelie control system that will likely find its way on upcoming 2017 models. Ducati Traction Control EVO uses all-new software algorithms to crunch the numbers sent from the Bosch Inertial Measurement Unit to calculate the optimum amount of rear wheel slip. In addition to altering spark advance and fuel injection, the EVO system manipulates the butterfly valves in the throttle bodies for smoother and more precise intervention.
