Sorry, I was being vague again Cookie.C00kiemonster wrote:This wins hands down. The r1 looks awful!
I was meaning to infer that there was no comparison IMO.

A 1.3 litre sports motorbike with all that performance. I reckon I could use about 50% of that bike.

Put it in 'wet' mode and that is what you would almost have.Kwacky wrote:A 1.3 litre sports motorbike with all that performance. I reckon I could use about 50% of that bike.

A lot of that weight is saved from using a lithium ion battery it say. 166kg dry weight is pretty impressive.

Re: Panigale 1299 First Pics & Details
Think they said it was a wet weight excluding fuel, so probably below 160kg dry. Bloody amazing for a 1300cc bike.D6 wrote:A lot of that weight is saved from using a lithium ion battery it say. 166kg dry weight is pretty impressive.

166kg is dry weight so wet weight will be circa 196kg which is just under actual weighed wet weights of the 1199.
The lithium battery accounts for 2kg of the 6kg weight saving.

I'm sure he said it was a wet weight excluding fuel in the presentation, but the the Ducati web site now says 164kg dry.Blade wrote:166kg is dry weight so wet weight will be circa 196kg which is just under actual weighed wet weights of the 1199.

The Superleggera is 178kg wet so the new 1299 won't be less than that.

If there's no fuel then its not really a wet weight IMO its more "a little bit wet weight as it sounds better" which is just plain sillyMonty wrote:I'm sure he said it was a wet weight excluding fuel in the presentation, but the the Ducati web site now says 164kg dry.Blade wrote:166kg is dry weight so wet weight will be circa 196kg which is just under actual weighed wet weights of the 1199.

There are two weights in my book one is completely empty of any fluid the other is fully fueled and ready to ride and these seem to be the industry accepted standards, fooling around with semi wet weight figures is a feeble attempt to make it sound better on paper than it actually is IMO
