The 1299 has monster power and torque but is now, more user-friendly and ever.
The old 1199 Panigale was an excellent bike, but it wasn’t for the fainthearted. But now, Ducati have done their homework, listened to feedback from owners, and have brought us this: the new 1299 Panigale.
Get the best of biking EVERY day…

I expected better and smoother shots, especially from the close up pans.
Didn’t seem professionally done, step it up MCN
Ducati’s style of this bike the Panigale changed the game when it was
unveiled. It is exactly what all bikes wish they would have
designed…..speaking just on looks lets see how it performs in its new
form 1299 against the beast of Motorcycles like the BMW S 1000RR Kawasaki’s
H2 another NEW BEAST and the ABOUT TIME NEW YAMAHA R1!!!!!!!!
This is probably the best year for motorcycle connoisseur!!!!!!!!!!!
IT’S SHOOTOUT TIME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Name of the intro music?
I’m not quite sure I understand the complaints. There are great shots of
the bike and the commentary edits to the parts they’re discussing. It’s a
first ride and he reports exactly what I want to hear on a first ride and
in this case what everyone wants to hear… how does it compare/adjust from
the shortcomings of the 1199. We’re going to get a much more in depth
review later on dealing with suspension, street worthiness etc.
It’s kind of weird to hear people bitch about soundtracks and photography.
I’m here for the actual review.
So was the general idea to use half of Ducati’s promo shots to populate
your video? That’s half of it which will be generic to every “1299 Firstv
Review” video coming out in the next few weeks then!
As much as I appreciate watching new bike vids, and commending your efforts
on getting the chance to ride one, I’m tired of MCN’s half arsed reviews.
Either do a proper review – even if it means using less generic (and poor
quality) footage – or just don’t bother!
Ducati bikes are
AMAZINGLY BEAUTIFUL.
Guys, your 1199 review when it first came out was the best on the internet.
This is a sub-par review that was hashed together in an afternoon and the
soundtrack and voice commentary was very average. I’m a big fan of your
page. I know you guys can do better and for new releases like this, I think
you should have gone the extra mile.
What a piece of art!
I’ll be interested to see how it compares to the updated Aprilia RSV4.
Beautiful bike I’d be afraid to ride it, not from power just the worry of
it getting damaged or a stone chip lol
again whoever the f*@£*ckkk is editing your vids congrats! good review and
all new quality of video.
whats the song that starts around 1:10?
Seriously, I really would like to hear what you have to say but it is
impossible to watch the video. The sound levels are horrible.
Ducati’s latest knee jerk reaction to EBR’s still better 1190rx, lol.
I agree with ‘theworldisyours’ (below). This wasn’t up to the MCN
reporting that we’re used to.
it doesn’t say this one is base of S model since it has Ohlins so I presume
is the S?
hey Chad, Group Test: 1299 S, R1, S1000RR, don’t forget H2. Cheers
WHAT. SONG. IS FUCKING PLAYING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!??????????????????????
MCN I love you guys, but this video is sub par. Neevesy puts out better
videos on his personal channel.
Can’t wait for the 2015 liter bike shootout :D
Awesome bike, can’t wait to see how it stacks up against the others,
especially the BMW! I’ll be sticking with my Streetfighter though…
Nicely shot video
200 and fu#$ing….Fve hoarse power :)
First song name???
I want one !!
What’s with the lame soundtrack at the beginning? Show the bike and ride
the bike. Less music, more engine!
