Pros Cons Ducati Panigale V2

Pros

  • Striking design
  • Excellent performance
  • Load on electronic aids

Cons

  • Too dedicated riding position
  • Can run too hot at low speeds
  • Expensive for its size

Verdict

The Ducati Panigale V2 isn't for the faint-hearted. Yes, it may be the entry-level Panigale, but there's nothing "entry-level" about its performance, or agility. In the right hands, the Panigale V2 can be a forgiving, entertaining and fun sportbike, that can make for a very enjoyable outing on a racetrack. The Ducati Panigale V2 isn't exactly affordable though. Priced at ₹ 17.49 lakh (Ex-showroom), the Panigale V2 is almost as expensive as litre-class superbikes.
