Now that we know that 2025 heralds a new era of Panigale, why would you buy a 2024 model? We’ve got about 240 reasons. No. 1: the engine. The Panigale V4′s Desmosedici Stradale is a 1,103cc V-4 (998cc on the V4 R) with a counterrotating crankshaft and desmodromic valve actuation. The base and S models produce a claimed 210 hp at 12,500 rpm and 90.6 lb.-ft. of torque at 11,000 rpm. The homologation-spec V4 R, when fitted with a full exhaust system, pumps out a claimed 240.5 hp at 16,500 rpm. Yes, you read that right. 240.5 hp. 16,500 rpm. Here’s the thing: Ducati’s single-minded, built-to-win superbikes’ value transcends the cool calculation of the stopwatch and the time capsules of technology beneath their fairings. When you buy a Ducati superbike, you’re buying a future classic. See: the 851, 888, 916, 996, 998, 999, 1098, 1198, 1199 Panigale, 1299 Panigale, and every Panigale V4. All legends in their own right. Time marches on but Ducati superbikes never grow old. Plus, if you just have to have a Panigale V4 with a single-sider, now’s the time.
