| Vehicle Overview | |||
| Ducati 959 Panigale Corse is a race specific model for the standard variant, carrying nothing other than Ohlins suspension and Li-ion battery over the standard model. The inclusion of these two features makes the same a great option for professional spec racing as ride quality improves a lot with the added components. The same 955cc, twin cylinder engine is employed in Panigale Corse, producing nothing less than 157 HP at 10,500 rpm and 107.4 Nm of torque at 9000 rpm. The engine comes mated to a 6-speed gearbox. Other important features on the motorcycle includes traction control, ABS, Pirelli tyres and Brembo sourced brakes. | NA | NA | |
