What they say about it

There are fast motorcycles, and then there are motorcycles that feel genuinely special every time you ride them. The 2019 Ducati Panigale V4 S Corse is firmly in that second category.The V4 S already delivers one of the most intense, precise and rewarding sportbike experiences Ducati has ever built, but the Corse takes it a step further with its unmistakable race-inspired livery and limited-production feel. From the rider’s seat, the bike feels incredibly focused. The front end communicates everything, the chassis feels planted when you load it into a corner, and the V4 engine just keeps pulling harder the further you let it rev.This particular bike is even more special thanks to a full-system Akrapovic exhaust. It transforms the experience—not just with the sound, but with the way the bike responds and comes alive under throttle. It has that unmistakable Ducati V4 bark at low rpm and an absolutely intoxicating howl when you let it run.It has also been tastefully upgraded with Rizoma mirrors and front indicators along with a fender eliminator, cleaning up the appearance without taking away from what makes the Corse so distinctive.This is a one-owner motorcycle with just 9,600 miles, and it is the kind of bike that clearly makes sense for someone who wants more than simply the newest model. The Corse livery, Öhlins-equipped V4 S platform, Akrapovic system and clean upgrades give it a presence that newer bikes do not automatically replace.At $19,999, this is an opportunity to own a very special generation of Panigale V4 S with the expensive upgrades already done.If you have ever ridden one, you already know. If you haven’t, this is a very good one to start with.2019 Ducati Panigale V4 S CorseA New OperaA new paradigmIt is called Panigale V4 and it marks a new and important chapter in Ducati's history, a "symphony" of performance and emotions that are 100% Italian.
