I agree with you 100% my Friend! The goal of this video was to highlight some of the negative stuff for potential buyers. The positives definitely outweigh the negatives. Ride safe and thanks for commenting.
If the money is no problem when repairs come up, I'd buy it again tomorrow. The 13,14 s 1199 r , in my opinion are the best looking crotchrockets in the industry(BAR NONE) and faster than you need to take them unless your on a track. They handle like it's on rails. Suspension is set up with a push of a button. No tools required.
I think I've said this about every modern Ducati Superbike at some point, but I really think the 899 / 1299 body style might be the most beautiful of them all.
I have never own or try one, never have the pleassure. But i think too, for me the best modern 2013 that chasis and looking, especially front end... also tail light. Ducati have one of the best looking bike design ever.
I could see the heat being a big deterrence in buying the 1299, but it's just something about owning an exotic Italian Superbike. It's a Ferrari on 2 wheels for goodness sake! I am very envious and I can't wait to perhaps be lucky enough to own one of these classics. The mods you've added are second to none and look absolutely amazing. Ride safe and enjoy my friend!!
The heat is unbelievable on a warm day below 60 mph. There are situations where one specific flaw colors everything about a bike, and for me at least the heat pouring off this bike is what I think about and it impacts how often I use mine. It is great in spring or fall/winter. It would be difficult to have this be your only bike if you like to ride in the summer. One of my other bikes has ceramic on the exhaust and I am tempted to try it on my stock exhaust to see if it makes a difference.
I fitted heat shielding under seat and fairings and it makes a huge difference. Also being in leathers vs riding jeans makes a big difference. Doesn't mean it is 'good' in so start but heck, it ain't meant for it.
Though its undenyingly expensive but dude its the design, aesthetics and attention to detail are awesome though some of its downside is cooking your nuts everytime you ride it.
Scientifically the Panigale increases fertility from heating your balls but probably for the reasons to pass on your genes ASAP before the bike kills you
Your review is spot on. That’s my dream bike. Took a few rides on it in Fort Lauderdale. My inner thighs felt like they were touching a hot tap on a stove. A very uncomfortable feeling but you pay the price for such a sexy and red hot bike.
Very true about the idea of touching a hot stove with your inner thighs, lol! My Dainese mesh pants help a ton, but also add to retaining heat. Even though this bikes generates heat like the depths of hell, I love it and I'm keep it for a very very long time. Cheers!
I just got me one and 2 minutes later I was like, Mannnn is this thing going on fire? I had to pullover to check on it. Then I found this video. 😂😂 heats up like hell.
The heat has always been a major issue for me to buy one of these for New York. I’m shocked that it’s still really hot 🥵 with all the cooling mods you e done.
I am pretty shocked (and disappointed too) with the heat the 1299 generates, even after all the cooling mods. I've gotten used to it, but it still isn't fun to ride on a hot day here in Florida. Your channel is doing great brother. Keep up the great vids!
FirebladePilot The channel is a tough grind man. At this point, I’m just doing for the grind. I’m very excited for 2020 since I’m grabbing the StreetFighter V4. Here’s to hoping it does well with the heat.
That awesome to hear you plan on picking up the new V4 Streetfighter! I'm still debating on whether to add the new 2020 S1K M to my garage. I saw your video from your test ride and it looked great to ride. We'll see!
Use your legs and midsection to hold up your weight. Never put unneeded pressure on the bars. It’s giving unnecessary input to the bike and causing your hands to go numb. Just a bit of advice that’s solid. Beautiful bike bro. Ride safe. 🤙🏼
Lol! It’s the Lamborghini of Motor Cycles of course it’s going to cost a lot of money. I’ve got a 2018 959 . Insurance is 30 a month. They have heat shields for that heat. .
Great video, glad I watched it. I was thinking about buying the V4 at Eurocycle (I'm in Tampa as well). But after hearing about the crazy heat, I think I'll stick to my custom R1 for now.
The V4 heat actually isn't too bad compared to my 1299. Now don't get me wrong, it's still super hot, but nothing like the 1299. Enjoy that R1 my Friend!
@@TheDucatiPilot would you say the heat's as bad as the 07' R1? My old Raven R1 was just too much with the heat, so I had to keep it as a track only bike and buy a 07' ZX10R for riding on the street. I'm considering the R now, but with everything I have in the 16' R1 (carbon fiber rims, full Matte carbon fiber body, full titanium exhaust, custom tune, etc) it makes it hard to switch. I dunno, maybe I'm just getting old and too lazy to build another new bike, lol.
@@A_Man_Named_Mark Your R1 sounds like a true Beast. I'm having the same debate about starting over with a new bike. I've done so many mods to my 1299 that I feel it would take me a year just to improve a new bike (such as a V4). The money part is also a challenge! I'd keep the R1 now if I was in your situation. Good luck!
@@TheDucatiPilot wow, I do love the V4s brother. Very jealous, 🤗 Is the rear cylinder head on the V4s in the same position as the twin? Is there much heat as such?
@@minatormyth The rear cylinder head a positioned a little lower than the 1299. The big change was the position of the exhaust. On the 1299, it’s basically right under the seat. Also another thing I love about the V4 is it doesn’t burn my right inner thigh.
I've got the 1199 r . Heats a big issue with it also, but once you get going, it's not too bad. Definitely a track bike, but I still find plenty of roads that are fun. I'm just across the bay in st.pete.,so we face the same weather conditions. Except for the cost of repairs, I have no regrets.
It’s dope you’re in Tampa as well, this is what im shooting for in maybe 2 years, just sketched to take it out to like Ybor or something in fear of it even being touched.
Yeah man when we used to ride to ybor and I never left my bikes side and I just had a ZX10R at the time. People always touch a mans bike for some reason.🤷🏾♂️
Too bad Ducati's are so expensive in my country (Denmark). A 2016 Ducati Panigale 959 costs around 40k - bone stock. Would love to own one at some point
Thanks for the honest review 👍🏻 I’m glad you mentioned riding in the heat. I live in NYC and I find riding my 848 EVO in 90 degree plus temperatures unbearable
R U guys sure that the japanese copetition dossnt gererete that much heat? I dont know how much heat does that Ducati generate but my Honda Hornet does quite a lot when its hot in the city. Isnt that and issue for all bikes > 600cc?
Abdul Wisi Mu Lacha I don’t know much about your ride but the Majority of Ducati’s are two cylinder bikes that are working twice as hard as the Japanese 4 cylinder bikes.
I actually plan on getting the clear clutch cover in a couple months! I've been told it doesn't void the warranty. Looking to get the black outer cover with the red spring retainer in the middle. Cheers!
For anyone that is planing to buy a 1299 or an 1199 you should not be in danger of overheating in the summer as long as you are riding it like you should ride a panigale😂. The most common issue that I’ve seen on my 1299s and other peoples 1199’s. The squirter unit and the water pump have a pretty high fail rate since it is literally in between both of your cylinders. And btw the squirter unit is the actual name of the part and it is made with some kinda OK plastic but when it over heats it usually just fails and spits coolant until you replace it🙃. Got to love the Ducati heat factor lmao.
#1 you get what you pay for... you want generic ok, save money. You want something special --> DUCATI #2 I honestly got lucky on my 1299 base with Statefarm insurance in NC. #3 Not a touring bike... you want comfortable buy a Goldwing. Panigale is race inspired track focused. Don't lie to yourself on this one... #4 Bike only feels hot when your going slow from light to light... tracktime going hard its fine. (not a touring bike) #5 I used a little piece of duck tape on the throttle thing... problem solved! I have road the $hit outta my 1299 base. I had one warranty issue with fork seals nothing else. I have done over a dozen trackdays and now in the Advanced group. The paint is pealing off the motor I have run it so hard LOL. Still running like a champ and is a stunner with some bling parts ! I honestly never plan on selling this bike.
1, You want to play ,you got too pay..2, I have a bad back and am extremely comfortably , I guess it's just me, I do not sit on the 1299, I am part of it, we react as one unit 3 ,. It is always upper 80's and mid 90's here in Greensboro, 90 + today YESSS HOT !!. In 7 months of riding, just under 12,000 trouble free miles. Monday the 30, Track day for me @ V.I.R Danville Virginia The 1299 will be on the Dyno and super tuned tomorrow. Will post the video on my Chanel Putting so many miles on the 1299, I bought a 2016 Monster 1200 S with 935 miles from the original owner. rode it for 1 day, great bike , but not for me. Selling it. Anything other then a Panigale is a let down.. JUST my opinion. NEXT ,, 2020 V 4 street fighter in memory of Carlin Dune. Be safe everyone and keep that front tire aiming for the sky
Thanks for the insightful comment Glenn. Glad to hear you enjoy the 1299. I throughly enjoy mine too, I just wanted to insight to future and potential buyers of the negatives of owning a Panigale. Believe me, I'm not selling this baby for awhile ;) It's interesting you sold the Monster 1200 S. It seems like a comfortable (more upright) bike. I guess your like me...if you look good, you feel good (hence the 1299). I might upgrade to a V4S in a year or 2, but I'll be sticking with the 1299 for now. Cheers and ride safe!
The akrapovic slip-on for this bike is 2900. The full exhaust is 4k. That said you very likely have the $4k full system. It would suck if the dude didn't put it on cause separately the header is at least $1700 more like $1900.
150?!?! ...I had a new 748 biposto financed like 20 yrs ago. I was like 25. My insurance in broward Florida was 20 bucks a month. The bike I bought last week my insurance is $14 a month full coverage... 100K plus 25k passenger. You better shop man
Really? What insurance do you have? Thats crazy low. Here in Florida, it ranks among the top 5 States in stolen bikes, so that has a lot to do with it too.
I love my 1299Panigale S. It’s definitely not a bike you want to ride around town hitting stop lights and stop signs, it has too much power for that kind of riding. It’s a track bike, canyons, open roads bike because of the power it possesses. For city riding I get on my 1200 Harley sportster which is super chill. This Ducati hates stop and go riding and will heat up to 214 Fahrenheit on a hot day at a stop light.
My bike in the summer feels like I'm siting on a camp fire but I don't care about that. The feeling of riding this italian beauty is well worth it the third degree burns heal overtime. 😆
You basically wanted to told the viewers multiple times it's expensive and you can afford it. My kind of dude! I have buddy who owns one he's the original owner only put less the 3K he keeps asking me to take it for a bit to ride so it can be ridden. I don't even want to temp myself. Only Ducati I owned was a 1998 750 Monster old school it was awesome had the vintage yellow metal tank not the plastic tank that new ones have. Wished I kept it.
@@stevekutscherawy6831 The belts the annual servicing and then the desmo every fifteen thou , good grief , buy n R1 m instead ...👍from West Yorkshire , England .
I liked my 2014 s1000rr better than the 1199/1299, however I love my Ducati V4. I like to say the s1000rr is “smooth” power, while the Ducatis have “raw” power. Hope that helps!
@The Ducati Pilot gotcha. Sold my r1 last year and im in the market of buying a bike. My choices are s1000rr, panigale 1199 or a 2017 and up cbr1000rr. Still debating on which one to pursue.
I actually sold the 1299 back in 2020 (I currently ride a V4 Speciale). I never had an issue with 1299, however it was HOT! You do get used to it over time though. The thrill of riding this bike plus the looks, made it worth owning. Ducati is not just a brand, it's a lifestyle!
At a post of you, at a video from somebody else, i red that you had 83 subs at the time, 3 years ago. Wauw dude! Im wondering if you are still a pilot. That would be my 1. Dream job!! days ago i reseigned as a locksmith. Im afraid right now cause i dont know what i’m going to do next...
That's pretty awesome you saw I had 83 Subs back then, lol. It's been a long journey, but I'm super close to 4k Subs. I definitely need to make more vids on a consistent basis. Yes I am still a pilot. Haven't flown in a while though. Took a managerial job. Good luck on your future endeavors man. Cheers!
Thank you so much, right now im still sick of reseigning my job, cause my boss actually tried to manipulate me, i reseigned because i already thought he was a toxic person. The only way is up i think!
Got one the 1299 base model. Yes it is very hot on your thighs especially here in Manila. but once I installed the heat shields its ok. Would I buy a Panigale again? Yes but if I have extra money I would go for the top dog. The v4
Have the 848 Evo. Good god the heat. People say it heats the ass. No! It sets your entire legs on fire! From ankle to testes to ankle. You are swimming in your own sweat. I don't know how this guy does it Florida. Holy hell. I live in Prague and I have to kill my 848 at long red lights. Otherwise it goes to 104°C . That's skin damage btw.
i owned this bike , the pani v4s , the yamaha r1 from 2004 , 2007 , 2012 , the kawa zx10 2014 . they all get equaly hot . its ineveitable if you take fuel and combust it to 200+ horses . i say after about 2010 models they all got a lot hotter , also quicker .
Hey man! Yes I am finally back. I took a much need 2 month break from TH-cam. I got really burnt out filming and editing motovlogs. I still plan to continue adding videos to my channel though! Thanks for noticing I'm back and commenting!
Ok. The title of the video is about why not to buy one. Why do you ramble on about the deal you got and what came with it? Sorry but I was hoping to learn some reasons why not to own one. You ramble on about things that don't have much to do with owning one or that apply to every sport bike out. You lean over and the ergo is bad on every sport bike. The one reason that applies in this video is the heat the motor produces. And to be honest most of us that love ducati's can deal with a negative or two because of how they look and sound.
Marcheeesni rim options? You dont need full headers unless youre a full on racer and need every HP. A diet and fitness regime is probably more important😆
I haven’t personally ridden a new Panigale V2 myself, but I would say it’s definitely more rideable than a 959, 1299, and other variants. The new Panigale V2 is modeled after the V4 body style and I can personally attest that my V4 Speciale runs a lot cooler than my 1299. I think the V2 is the way to go, especially around town.
Hi 👋. Excellent work. If you get a chance would you let me know ‘your’ opinion about the sound / feel difference between the L twin and your new V4 please!!! I owned Kawasaki’s & Yam R1 then changed to Ducati 1198s and loved it, I love the L twin sound & feel. 👍👍👍
I own one and the vid is nonsense. Yes, it gets hot. This can be negated and will only be bad for fools riding in denim or shorts. In leather, no probs. No, it is not a 2 wheeled ferrari. Ducati will rip you off for spares costs and service costs. Its a big twin, so screws will rattle off. Theyre not cheap. But my 1299 has some grunt. It is terrible in an urban environment, but take it on a track and boy is she good.
I’m thinking of buying a panigale 1199, a question that I had was about the “it gets hot” statement most people talk about. What exactly does that mean? Like engine overheating or just exhaust heat. Would be nice for someone to clear this up for me
@@BaqerAlSarraf Its a 200hp motorcycle. bhp=heat. The vertical pot is essentially where your private bits are, the exhaust manifold is under your bum. If you wear leathers its probably ok. shorts and t shirt in a hot clime, be painful if moving in stop start slow traffic all the time. If you are on open roads, no problem. I use mine in Almeria track days at 38°C and its fine. I have fill Ti akra, Ti is better for heat. I also have put Gold DE reflective on a lot of the insides and under seat. But the 1199 and the 1299 are awesome bikes. The heat is only an issue if you are stuck in v hot climate, stop start and slow riding. In winter in UK its actually useful heat. :) Dont let this vid, which is rubbish, put you off. All bikes have shortcomings somewhere. This is a superbike, not a tourer or a commuter.
Wan wan the engine is too hot 🥵. It’s a race bike. You can’t heat get out of the kitchen. My 2019 is fine it get warm a little hot your riding an exotic with an exotic special engine.
Whoa now, calm down my friend. These were my thoughts over 3 years ago (thanks for watching an old vid though). I gave an honest review for new people making a huge investment in a Ducati. By the way, I traded the 1299 for a V4 Speciale, which I still own 😎
after warranty up..at 14k miles it needs a valve check and tune up thats about $3k..but with maintenance paper work they have great resale value..valves check is ever 7k miles..next runs with the leader japan bike you want 1,199 you hear alot of jokes why you need another 200cc to run with 1000cc japan leader bike...but the red and thats cool ..carve up corners and stand up dank noobs
Would you still purchase a Ducati Panigale knowing the bike has these negative characteristics? Let me know your thoughts in the comments below!
FirebladePilot i would. And i did😂 getting annoyed once in a while is okay considering all the positive stuff.
I agree with you 100% my Friend! The goal of this video was to highlight some of the negative stuff for potential buyers. The positives definitely outweigh the negatives. Ride safe and thanks for commenting.

#3 Not a touring bike... you want comfortable buy a Goldwing. Panigale is race inspired track focused. Don't lie to yourself on this one...
#4 Bike only feels hot when your going slow from light to light... tracktime going hard its fine. (not a touring bike)
#5 I used a little piece of duck tape on the throttle thing... problem solved!
I have road the $hit outta my 1299 base. I had one warranty issue with fork seals nothing else. I have done over a dozen trackdays and now in the Advanced group. The paint is pealing off the motor I have run it so hard LOL. Still running like a champ and is a stunner with some bling parts ! I honestly never plan on selling this bike.
Spot on bro 👍👌 thank you. That’s why I went for a 2019 CB1000-R brand new $10,800 out the door Cash 😎
That’s a great deal! Enjoy that Beast of a bike!!
Thanks a lot Buddy 🤝 take care and ride safe. Best wishes for the new year
1, You want to play ,you got too pay..2, I have a bad back and am extremely comfortably , I guess it's just me, I do not sit on the 1299, I am part of it, we react as one unit 3 ,. It is always upper 80's and mid 90's here in Greensboro, 90 + today YESSS HOT !!. In 7 months of riding, just under 12,000 trouble free miles. Monday the 30, Track day for me @ V.I.R Danville Virginia The 1299 will be on the Dyno and super tuned tomorrow. Will post the video on my Chanel Putting so many miles on the 1299, I bought a 2016 Monster 1200 S with 935 miles from the original owner. rode it for 1 day, great bike , but not for me. Selling it. Anything other then a Panigale is a let down.. JUST my opinion. NEXT ,, 2020 V 4 street fighter in memory of Carlin Dune. Be safe everyone and keep that front tire aiming for the sky
Thanks for the insightful comment Glenn. Glad to hear you enjoy the 1299. I throughly enjoy mine too, I just wanted to insight to future and potential buyers of the negatives of owning a Panigale. Believe me, I'm not selling this baby for awhile ;)
It's interesting you sold the Monster 1200 S. It seems like a comfortable (more upright) bike. I guess your like me...if you look good, you feel good (hence the 1299). I might upgrade to a V4S in a year or 2, but I'll be sticking with the 1299 for now. Cheers and ride safe!
Diavel it is! Back issues and metal plates in my wrist will not cooperate :(
The akrapovic slip-on for this bike is 2900. The full exhaust is 4k. That said you very likely have the $4k full system. It would suck if the dude didn't put it on cause separately the header is at least $1700 more like $1900.
I just bought a V4 SP. Never ridden a V4 so hopefully I'll like it😂
150?!?! ...I had a new 748 biposto financed like 20 yrs ago. I was like 25. My insurance in broward Florida was 20 bucks a month. The bike I bought last week my insurance is $14 a month full coverage... 100K plus 25k passenger. You better shop man
I see all this videos telling the "Bad things that Panigale or Ducati has" and blah blah... Then why you have it? Why you bought it?
I want people to make an informed decision before spending all that money. I also did a video about the great things owning a Panigale.
Pay $18.50 a month full coverage. Depends on where you live I guess.
Really? What insurance do you have? Thats crazy low. Here in Florida, it ranks among the top 5 States in stolen bikes, so that has a lot to do with it too.
1299 is the bike never let me down and it’s best bike in market till v4 and h2h 1299 it’s only 3 bikes in market
I love my 1299Panigale S. It’s definitely not a bike you want to ride around town hitting stop lights and stop signs, it has too much power for that kind of riding. It’s a track bike, canyons, open roads bike because of the power it possesses. For city riding I get on my 1200 Harley sportster which is super chill. This Ducati hates stop and go riding and will heat up to 214 Fahrenheit on a hot day at a stop light.
I am 6’3”. Ergonomics and the heat are my only issues- Nevertheless it’s too good looking to ignore 😍😍
Just bought a 23 v4s. I'm 6 foot 3 and it fits real nice dude
@@vincentd9531 niceeee!!
My bike in the summer feels like I'm siting on a camp fire but I don't care about that. The feeling of riding this italian beauty is well worth it the third degree burns heal overtime. 😆
You basically wanted to told the viewers multiple times it's expensive and you can afford it. My kind of dude! I have buddy who owns one he's the original owner only put less the 3K he keeps asking me to take it for a bit to ride so it can be ridden. I don't even want to temp myself. Only Ducati I owned was a 1998 750 Monster old school it was awesome had the vintage yellow metal tank not the plastic tank that new ones have. Wished I kept it.
"Don't buy a Panigale"
*buys a panigale*
Surely one of the major reasons not to buy it is the cost of the DESMO service at 15000 miles , around £1300 gbp in the UK ....
Dont mate I'm 2kmiles away from this 🤣
@@stevekutscherawy6831 The belts the annual servicing and then the desmo every fifteen thou , good grief , buy n R1 m instead ...👍from West Yorkshire , England .
That's a good point! That Desmo service is quite pricey!
What do you like better? The s1000rr or the 1199?
I liked my 2014 s1000rr better than the 1199/1299, however I love my Ducati V4. I like to say the s1000rr is “smooth” power, while the Ducatis have “raw” power. Hope that helps!
@The Ducati Pilot gotcha. Sold my r1 last year and im in the market of buying a bike. My choices are s1000rr, panigale 1199 or a 2017 and up cbr1000rr. Still debating on which one to pursue.
@@apablo09 of those choices, I’d go s1000rr. The 1199 is not as refined. It’s why Ducati made the 1299. It slightly improved the flaws of the 1199.
Don't call them the Ferrari of motorcycles for no reason.
Though they are far more reliable.
Do you still own this? Have you had any issues? Does it ride hot
I actually sold the 1299 back in 2020 (I currently ride a V4 Speciale). I never had an issue with 1299, however it was HOT! You do get used to it over time though. The thrill of riding this bike plus the looks, made it worth owning. Ducati is not just a brand, it's a lifestyle!
22 hundred whit the things u got whit it i dont find that a bad price for a ducati
Dude! your videos and channel are EPIC! you've inspired me to make my channel as epic as I possibly can! keep up the amazing work 🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘
Thanks man! Ride safe and enjoy that 1098! Cheers!
At a post of you, at a video from somebody else, i red that you had 83 subs at the time, 3 years ago. Wauw dude! Im wondering if you are still a pilot. That would be my 1. Dream job!! days ago i reseigned as a locksmith. Im afraid right now cause i dont know what i’m going to do next...
That's pretty awesome you saw I had 83 Subs back then, lol. It's been a long journey, but I'm super close to 4k Subs. I definitely need to make more vids on a consistent basis.
Yes I am still a pilot. Haven't flown in a while though. Took a managerial job. Good luck on your future endeavors man. Cheers!
Thank you so much, right now im still sick of reseigning my job, cause my boss actually tried to manipulate me, i reseigned because i already thought he was a toxic person. The only way is up i think!
@@SiriusRider1 Sounds like a very logical choice, I don't blame you at all. Hope all is well.
Presumably you sold the bike then?
Got one the 1299 base model. Yes it is very hot on your thighs especially here in Manila. but once I installed the heat shields its ok. Would I buy a Panigale again? Yes but if I have extra money I would go for the top dog. The v4
Yes I would definitely buy a Panigale again. Big surprises coming soon! 😉
Have the 848 Evo. Good god the heat. People say it heats the ass. No! It sets your entire legs on fire! From ankle to testes to ankle. You are swimming in your own sweat. I don't know how this guy does it Florida. Holy hell. I live in Prague and I have to kill my 848 at long red lights. Otherwise it goes to 104°C . That's skin damage btw.
A. SUPER. AWESOME. RIGHT TO THE POINT. TNKS. SIR. 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
Complaining about $150/month insurance is funny. In Ontario with a clean record at 27yo, this is $490/month and you can maybe only ride for 5-6 months
No one’s complaining. I’m passing knowledge to common questions I receive all the time in my inbox.
Insurance in sweden on bike same as urs 300 man , 150 is cheap asf , its cheaper than v2 here also 😂😂😂
Great video. How is the comfort compared to your the S1000rr you had?
S1K a lot more comfortable but still runs quite hot
Gmn ga turun2 keluar ducati dr dealer nya dikirim ke kostan ak
Amien dtgg Ducati ❤😊
i owned this bike , the pani v4s , the yamaha r1 from 2004 , 2007 , 2012 , the kawa zx10 2014 . they all get equaly hot . its ineveitable if you take fuel and combust it to 200+ horses . i say after about 2010 models they all got a lot hotter , also quicker .
Do you have any issues with quick shifter? I get false neutrals on my v4s 2022. Only in between 5th & 6th when giving it wide open throttle
this happens on the 1299S too :)
yoooo your back. Were have you been?
Hey man! Yes I am finally back. I took a much need 2 month break from TH-cam. I got really burnt out filming and editing motovlogs. I still plan to continue adding videos to my channel though! Thanks for noticing I'm back and commenting!
@@TheDucatiPilot nice glad your back!
Appreciate it! :)
How is the performance?
The beauty of imperfect on such perfect is even more alluring.
How hot does it get? I have a Sfv4 and it’s not bad
Pretty hot (especially here in Florida). The 1299s don't cool as well as the V4's. You have an amazing bike! Ride safe my friend!
where did you buy the plate holder ? have link ?
Ferrari on two wheels so $30k not a bad deal
Ok. The title of the video is about why not to buy one. Why do you ramble on about the deal you got and what came with it? Sorry but I was hoping to learn some reasons why not to own one. You ramble on about things that don't have much to do with owning one or that apply to every sport bike out. You lean over and the ergo is bad on every sport bike. The one reason that applies in this video is the heat the motor produces. And to be honest most of us that love ducati's can deal with a negative or two because of how they look and sound.
Marcheeesni rim options?
You dont need full headers unless youre a full on racer and need every HP. A diet and fitness regime is probably more important😆
Lol 150 a month. Come to Michigan bro! 2019 Zx10r 327 a month progressive
My goodness man! How does anyone afford to ride up there??? Plus living up there you can't ride year-round. Ouch!
Only Americans have heat issues..
Mamma Mia! 🔥
What about the v2, can it be for the streets?
I haven’t personally ridden a new Panigale V2 myself, but I would say it’s definitely more rideable than a 959, 1299, and other variants. The new Panigale V2 is modeled after the V4 body style and I can personally attest that my V4 Speciale runs a lot cooler than my 1299. I think the V2 is the way to go, especially around town.
Hi 👋. Excellent work. If you get a chance would you let me know ‘your’ opinion about the sound / feel difference between the L twin and your new V4 please!!! I owned Kawasaki’s & Yam R1 then changed to Ducati 1198s and loved it, I love the L twin sound & feel. 👍👍👍
😎 Hey, I’m now Subscribed and working my way through all your Ducati vids. Great work mate 👏👏👏👏
The only true reason not to buy 1199/1299 Panigale is the HEAT other reasons you've mentioned are pure BS.
hhmm i hear no reasons not to buy it.
I own one and the vid is nonsense. Yes, it gets hot. This can be negated and will only be bad for fools riding in denim or shorts. In leather, no probs. No, it is not a 2 wheeled ferrari. Ducati will rip you off for spares costs and service costs. Its a big twin, so screws will rattle off. Theyre not cheap. But my 1299 has some grunt. It is terrible in an urban environment, but take it on a track and boy is she good.
I’m thinking of buying a panigale 1199, a question that I had was about the “it gets hot” statement most people talk about. What exactly does that mean? Like engine overheating or just exhaust heat. Would be nice for someone to clear this up for me
@@BaqerAlSarraf Its a 200hp motorcycle. bhp=heat. The vertical pot is essentially where your private bits are, the exhaust manifold is under your bum. If you wear leathers its probably ok. shorts and t shirt in a hot clime, be painful if moving in stop start slow traffic all the time. If you are on open roads, no problem. I use mine in Almeria track days at 38°C and its fine. I have fill Ti akra, Ti is better for heat. I also have put Gold DE reflective on a lot of the insides and under seat.
But the 1199 and the 1299 are awesome bikes. The heat is only an issue if you are stuck in v hot climate, stop start and slow riding. In winter in UK its actually useful heat. :) Dont let this vid, which is rubbish, put you off. All bikes have shortcomings somewhere. This is a superbike, not a tourer or a commuter.
Yea I can’t imagine riding that bike in traffic on a warm Florida day.
thanks boss
look at the bike from 2015 to 2018 in WSBK and tell me it's not a good bike... Rea just got lucky on his old KAWA shit
Wan wan the engine is too hot 🥵. It’s a race bike. You can’t heat get out of the kitchen. My 2019 is fine it get warm a little hot your riding an exotic with an exotic special engine.
Whoa now, calm down my friend. These were my thoughts over 3 years ago (thanks for watching an old vid though). I gave an honest review for new people making a huge investment in a Ducati. By the way, I traded the 1299 for a V4 Speciale, which I still own 😎
Low side king
underwear exhaust?
LOL?!?! I said that in the vid??
Don’t ride over 30 minutes
Yes Sir! Lots and Lots of gas station breaks! 😅
🤪
Engine heat from a duc!
They all have that problem.
Very true! I sold the 1299 and bought a V4 Speciale, and the heat is some what better. 🙌
Marcheeeeesmi
after warranty up..at 14k miles it needs a valve check and tune up thats about $3k..but with maintenance paper work they have great resale value..valves check is ever 7k miles..next runs with the leader japan bike you want 1,199 you hear alot of jokes why you need another 200cc to run with 1000cc japan leader bike...but the red and thats cool ..carve up corners and stand up dank noobs
‘Why not to watch this video’..... Waffling on with story instead of the topic
