MODEL SUMMARY.

Ducati Panigale V4 Speciale in the bespoke Ducati Rosso/Bianco/Verde Tricolore colour scheme. 2018 18 Reg. A piece of Italian art

These Speciales were the ultimate incarnation of the then new V4 model, launched alongside the V4 and V4S models, and costing £34995 at the time

Produced in a limited run of 1500 units worldwide, they each had a numbered top yoke, this particular bike being number 688

Supplied new by Seastar Superbikes of Norwich, it has had just 1 owner with only 1200 miles covered

Original service book with 4 service stamps including service bills/invoices. Recent Shell Advance Ultra fully synthetic oil service with new Ducati o.e Skyrich HJT 9B Lithium Battery. Excellent matching Pirelli Diablo Supercorsa SPs fitted. New MOT provided at point of sale. Clear HPI report. All books/history/documents/keys present

The V4 Panigale ended the long line of V-Twin Ducati Superbikes, primarily to increase Ducati’s success in racing, which it managed to do very well indeed. The motor was designated Desmosedici Stradale and was a 90 degree V4 1103cc 8v motor developing 214bhp…

…however, in the case of the Speciale power rose to 226bhp due to the fitment of a full Race Titanium Akrapovic exhaust system. An absolute work of art, this exhaust system could be specified on the lesser models, albeit at a heady price of £5000

The specification was the highest ever seen on a road going Ducati, a true technofest in every sense, and included Ducati Electronic Suspension (DES) Ohlins NIX30 43mm dia. TiN coated fully adjustable forks – Semi Active with Smart EC 2.0 control, Ohlins TTX36 fully adjustable monoshock – Semi Active with Smart EC 2.0 control, Ohlins fully adjustable steering damper, Brembo Monobloc Stylema radial calipers, 330mm dia. floating discs and radial master cylinder, Brembo RCS brake and clutch master cylinders with Brembo folding levers, Marchesini forged light alloy wheels, Ducati Corse Carbon Fibre front hugger, Ducati Corse Carbon Fibre rear hugger, Ducati Corse Carbon Fibre heel guards, Ducati Corse Carbon Fibre infill panels, Ducati Corse Carbon Fibre rear suspension guard, Ducati Corse Carbon Fibre swingarm protector, Ducati Corse Carbon Fibre exhaust shield, Ducati Corse Suede Alcantara seat, IMU – Internal Measurement Unit in conjunction with Bosch Inertial Platform, DWC Evo – Ducati Wheelie Control Evo, Bosch Cornering ABS Evo, DTC Evo – Ducati Traction Control Evo, EBC Evo – Engine Braking Control Evo, DQS Evo – Ducati Quickshifter Up/Down with AutoBlipper Evo, DPL – Ducati Power Launch, DSC – Ducati Slide Control, DDA+ – Ducati Data Analysis + with GPS, ATC – Auto Tyre Calibration, RbW – Ride by Wire throttle control, MOTO GP derived LCD instruments and a Ducati engine immobiliser…Quite simply the best of everything

This bike remains exactly as it left the factory other than for the fitment of a Powerbronze tail tidy (original provided) tank pad and Optimate flylead

All Speciales were provided with a standard exhaust system (with specific lower fairing panels) aluminium mirror blank off plates, number plate holder removal kit and an indoor cover. All of these parts are provided with this bike in their original boxes

An utterly fabulous machine, in true collectors’ condition, the Speciale is assured it’s place in Ducati history for being the first and ultimate V4. This one is about as good as it gets, a true automotive jewel…
