Get ready for a thrilling ride as Ducati unveils its special edition street bikes, paying tribute to the legendary MotoGP riders, Francesco Bagnaia and Marc Marquez!
A Tribute to MotoGP Champions
Ducati has crafted two unique versions of the Panigale V2, each bearing the signature style of these racing icons. With distinct liveries inspired by their helmets and racing numbers, these bikes are an instant hit for any MotoGP enthusiast.
The Bagnaia edition sports a bold red-and-black 'camo' design, reminiscent of his 2025 helmet and number. Meanwhile, the Marquez edition features prominent 93s on the side fairing, a nod to his historic ride on the Desmosedici at the Barcelona test in 2024, marking his debut as a factory Ducati rider.
But here's where it gets interesting: both bikes showcase the rider's number on the front fairing, a subtle yet powerful statement.
Performance and Style
Based on the versatile Panigale V2 S, these special editions, known as the PB63 and MM93, come packed with exciting new features. Forged aluminum wheels, 1.5kg lighter than standard, reduce inertia by an impressive 27% at the front and 21% at the rear, enhancing agility and control.
Other notable additions include an adjustable Ohlins steering damper for precise handling, clip-on bars for a sportier riding position, a billet steering plate with a unique production number, and taller front screen for improved aerodynamics. And let's not forget the Desmosedici-inspired hand grips, designed to enhance grip and control.
And this is the part most people miss: Ducati hasn't revealed the price yet, but these beauties will be available in Europe by March 2026, the US by April 2026, and Japan and Australia from July 2026.
