The 959 Panigale Corse represents the highest sporting expression of the famous twin cylinder from Borgo Panigale
Thanks to the Öhlins suspensions, the type-approved Ducati Performance titanium silencers by Akrapovic, the lithium-ion battery and a dedicated livery inspired by the MotoGP colours, the 959 Panigale Corse is ready to hit the track.
The track as a test bench, the stopwatch as an indisputable judge. For us victories and pole positions mean only one thing: the ability to build increasingly better street bikes. Because in Borgo Panigale competition and mass production are so close that they coexist. Technology, materials, innovative – and sometimes “visionary” – ideas give rise to unique motorcycles. Like the 959 Panigale, which incorporates the DNA and spirit of winning Superbikes to a practical level never seen before.
