It’s Italian, it makes almost 200 horsepower — and it’s red. Does anything else really matter? The $31,995 Ducati 1199 Panigale R is the latest powerhouse superbike to leave Ducati’s Bologna factory, and it’s a sexy beast of a motorcycle.
Engineered to win races, the elegantly sculpted Panigale R’s exotic lines take inspiration from Ducati’s original and now classic 916 model, introduced in 1994. A snarling snout makes it look as angry as it sounds, and beneath its slender, shapely silhouette is a powerful, liquid-cooled 1,198 cc V-twin engine wrapped in an aluminum monocoque frame. This motorcycle is not for the faint of heart; it is capable of speeds approaching 320 km/h. - See more at: http://www.baxtton.com/rides/moto/2013-ducati-1199-panigale-r#sthash.F5UH8OHe.dpuf
