2025 Ducati Panigale V4 Tricolore Launched

The 2025 Ducati Panigale V4 Tricolore was launched in Miami, USA on Sunday. This £48,000 (RM270,277.84) special edition bike is limited to just 1,000 units worldwide.

Based on the Panigale V4 S, it is distinguished by a red, white, and green Tricolore paint job by Aldo Drudi. Drudi was the designer responsible for Valentino Rossi’s helmet. There is also a huge number “1” at the front of the bike. This edition joins other Ducati Tricolore special editions since the 851 in 1988.

Although costing a bomb, the engine is the 1103cc Desmosedici Stradale shared with the Panigale V4/S, which produces 213hp at 13,500 RPM.

In Miami and at Art Basel in particular we feel at home,” Director of Ducati’s Strategy and Style Centre, Andrea Ferraresi said. “Ducati is the only motorcycle brand able not only to combine sophisticated technology and sensual beauty, but also to break out of the typical schemes of sport liveries to create works of art, using the motorcycle as a canvas.

However, despite standard engine, there is a host of additional special components and accessories.

The 2025 Ducati Panigale V4 Tricolore is fitted with five-spoke carbon fibre rims that reduce 950 grams of unsprung mass, when compared with Ducati’s forged alternatives. According to Ducati, this further reduces the moment of inertia by 12% at the front, and 19% at the rear – helping the bike to change direction faster.

On top of this, there’s also a pair of finned front Brembo T-Drive discs measuring a hefty 338.5mm across and 6.2mm across. The 2025 Ducati Panigale V4 Tricolore is the first road-going production bike that wears these ex-factory.

The discs are gripped by Brembo Hypure calipers, plus an MCS 19.21 master cylinder – as used in MotoGP and World Superbikes.

There is also a dry clutch kit for that signature Ducati rattle, plus adjustable aluminium footpegs, and a GPS module to record your riding date.

A carbon fibre blanking plate for the numberplate bracket also comes as standard – plus a dedicated animation on the 6.9-inch TFT dash, Alcantara seat, and machined aluminium number board.

Wahid's lust for motorcycles was spurred on by his late-Dad's love for his Lambretta on which he courted, married his mother, and took baby Wahid riding on it. He has since worked in the motorcycle and automotive industry for many years, before taking up riding courses and testing many, many motorcycles since becoming a motojournalist. Wahid likes to see things differently. What can you say about a guy who sees a road safety message in AC/DC's "Highway to Hell."
