If it was the same price as a fully loaded S1kRR I’d sell my bike or car to get one. Unfortunately to rich for my blood.:’(

i agree, the price of a Panigale S is pretty ridiculous ($32k I think) compared to the price of an 1198SP ($22k) and the price of an S1KRR ($15k)

4

A fully loaded S1KRR is 18k, a base 1199 is 19k.

hmm, the prices on this website seem to be off or maybe it’s in canadian dollars: RushLane - Latest Cars News, Bikes News, Electric Vehicles, Scoops
(1199 Panigale $24,000, 1199 Panigale ABS variant - $25,195, 1199 Panigale S ABS variant - $31,595, 1199 Panigale S Tricolore variant - $37,585.)

edit: nevermind, that’s an Indian website and the amounts are in Indian dollars (or w/e they’re called lol). Google FTL

The cheapest way to do it to get some BMW/Ducati destroying track performance without spending $18k+ is get a used '10 CBR1kRR, spend $1500 to rebuild/valve/spring the suspension, $800 on a commander+custom map, $1000 on race exhaust and $250 on a set of Q2’s (streetable).

Last I checked it was 16.5k fully loaded? But I forgot to add tax’s to the mix.:banghead
Also I kind of meant a fully loaded 1199 for the price of the BMW would get me to move on it.

Or buy a used BWM S1kRR :excited

Oh, apprently not. That’s too bad. So to summarize Ben’s article, he likes the bike.

BTW, their client’s name is not “Vizordown”; just wanted to point that out so people don’t get trick to visit some unknown site for safety reasons.
