This isn’t merely a motorcycle; it’s a homage to engineering brilliance and a tangible piece of Ducati history.
A Design Masterpiece
Clad in a striking Tribute livery, meticulously designed by Drudi Performance in collaboration with Centro Stile Ducati, the Final Edition is a visual feast. The livery, a masterful blend of white, red, black, and grey, pays homage to Ducati’s rich heritage while exuding a contemporary allure. To shed unnecessary weight and enhance the bike’s aggressive profile, components like mudguards, silencers, and chain guards are crafted from lightweight carbon fiber.

The exclusivity of this model is further emphasized by premium materials and intricate detailing. A billet aluminum steering plate, proudly displaying the bike’s serial number, serves as a signature element. Additional carbon fiber accents, including the exhaust end cap, swingarm protection, and shock protector, not only enhance the bike’s aesthetics but also contribute to its razor-sharp handling. Rizoma billet aluminum footpegs offer both style and adjustability, catering to riders of varying preferences. The rider’s seat, adorned with the bike’s logo and the Italian tricolor, is a final touch of exclusivity.
Raw Power Meets Refined Handling
At the heart of the Final Edition resides the potent 995cc Superquadro twin-cylinder engine, a masterpiece of engineering that delivers a thrilling 155 horsepower and 104 Nm of torque. This powerplant is renowned for its high-revving character and intoxicating soundtrack.

The engine’s raw power is harnessed by a sophisticated chassis, built around a monocoque frame that utilizes the engine as a stressed member. The suspension setup is equally impressive, featuring fully adjustable 43mm Ohlins USD forks and an Ohlins TTX36 monoshock.
Stopping power is equally formidable, courtesy of Brembo monobloc M4.32 calipers gripping 320mm discs at the front and a Brembo caliper paired with a 245mm disc at the rear.
Technology at Its Finest
The Panigale V2 Superquadro Final Edition is not just about raw performance; it’s also a technological marvel. A comprehensive electronics package, underpinned by a 6-axis IMU, ensures optimal control and rider safety. Cornering ABS, traction control, wheelie control, quickshifter, and engine brake control work seamlessly to enhance the riding experience.
