2012 vs 2013

Marchant · October 18th, 2012, 11:56 AM

Hi from Cape Town!!
I'm waiting for my Panigale 2013. Everyday is like an eternity. I've been following everyone's threads and checking out if it's worth waiting for a 2013 model. Does anyone know exactly what they are changing? Like the melting fairing, etc.
Thanks

Artic White color option

Prolly just the white and expect them to address the recalls. My dealer also said they are working on the heat & getting it out of the rider's seat & lap.

according to this web site

2013 Ducati 1199 Panigale R Coming Soon

the 2013's will have revised geometry changes. I do not know how this will affect the bike because I am no track expert so I pretty much won't know how the rake changes will change the handling.

The rake adjustments can be done yourself. You can drop/raise the triples, adjust the steering stop, and adjust the clip-ons in and out. When I sit down and do my mods, I will bring the handle bars in. They are way too wide. Only problem is you need to buy a fork mount for the steering damper.
