I woke up on that new Ducati x 899 Panigale

Ducati has unveiled the brand new 899 Panigale. sooo sooo tight, A serious performance bike in the same vein as the Ducati 1199, albeit at a more accessible price point, the 899 uses a detuned version of the Superquado engine used in the 1199. In the 899, the detuned engine is good for 148 horsepower and 73 lb-ft of torque. Aside from the difference in horsepower, the 899 retains many of the performance features of its bigger brother including Ducati Quick Shift, traction control, electronic throttle control, and engine brake control. The Ducati 899 will be available for purchase next year through official Ducati dealers. TOO ILL... vroom vroom give me room fool...

Instead of the usual branding on a Dunk Mid the embroidered "SB" has been replaced with a silver button, the tongues will also feature their unique Made For Skate branding featuring a Royal Blue / Camo colorway. TOO ILL... must cop!
