Ducati Panigale V4 Tricolore: A Collector’s Bike Celebrating Made in Italy

A limited-edition marvel, the Ducati Panigale V4 Tricolore is here to captivate motorcycle enthusiasts worldwide. With just 1,000 numbered units, this masterpiece redefines what it means to honour the legacy of Made in Italy. Designed with a unique livery by Aldo Drudi and Centro Stile Ducati, this collector’s bike introduces groundbreaking components, making it a dream for track aficionados.

A Tribute to Ducati’s Rich History

The Ducati Panigale V4 Tricolore pays homage to the legendary 750 F1, the motorcycle that laid the foundation for modern supersport bikes 40 years ago. The Tricolore livery, symbolizing Italian pride, revisits Ducati’s storied tradition, from the first 851 Desmoquattro to today’s engineering marvels.

This year, Ducati dominated motorsports globally, including MotoGP and Superbike championships. The Ducati Panigale V4 Tricolore stands as a testament to these achievements, blending innovation, tradition, and a relentless passion for perfection.

Revolutionary Design and Engineering

The Ducati Panigale V4 Tricolore boasts an asymmetric livery in the Italian flag’s colors—white, red, and green—merged with black and white checkered flag elements, symbolizing Ducati’s victorious heritage. This design accentuates the aerodynamic elegance of the Panigale V4 platform, marking the seventh generation of Ducati Superbikes.

For the first time, a production bike features groundbreaking technical enhancements such as carbon fiber rims, a dry clutch, and the Front Brake Pro braking system with 338.5 mm T-Drive discs. These components significantly elevate performance, delivering unmatched handling and braking power on the track.

Track-Ready Performance

The Ducati Panigale V4 Tricolore incorporates carbon fiber rims that reduce weight by 0.950 kg compared to the V4 S, improving agility and stability during acceleration. The Brembo Hypure™ calipers and MCS 19.21 pump with remote adjustment deliver MotoGP-level braking precision.
