The Ducati 899 Panigale makes its UK debut this weekend at Brands Hatch at the final round of the British Superbike Championship, giving the UK racing public an early glimpse of the Italian manufacturer’s latest superbike.
The 899 will be on display outside the Ducati hospitality area, which will be located behind the Pit Straight Grandstand, and as well as a static display there will be a chance to see the bike on track as four-times World Superbike Champion Carl Fogarty leads a demonstration lap of the Kent circuit on Sunday at midday.
The 899 Panigale will be a familiar sight on UK tracks next year when it will line-up on the grid in the new Ducati TriOptons Cup as a support series for British Superbikes.
This stunning 899 Panigale is intended to provide a new way to access the exclusive world of Ducati Superbikes and is described as a “Supermid” version of the award-winning 1199 Panigale. The 899 still provides the thrill of the flagship model but with the refined character of an everyday road bike.
The 899 Panigale will be available from next month, priced a £12,495, in traditional Ducati red with black wheels or a stunning arctic white with red wheels.
