Man, I’ve been digging into the Ducati 1199 lately, and let me tell you, that thing is a beast! I wanted to get all the nitty-gritty details on this bike, so I started my deep dive. First off, I wanted to know what made the 1199 and the 1199S different. Seems like they’re both awesome, but cater to different kinds of riders.

Then I got curious about the buzz around the 1199. People are saying it’s the “best bang for your buck” because it’s packed with the latest tech. Sounds pretty good to me! I moved on to the 1199 Panigale’s top speed – 287.1 km/h! That’s insane! And it only weighs 164 kg. Plus, I found some cool pictures of it – nine, to be exact. It’s got a four-stroke, 90 “L” twin-cylinder, DOHC engine.
Engine Details
Next, I got to the heart of the matter – the engine. Hidden inside that sleek frame is a 1198cc monster. It’s a four-stroke, liquid-cooled engine that puts out 195 hp at 10,750 rpm and 132 Nm of torque at 9,000 rpm. That’s some serious power!
- Engine Type: Four-stroke, 90 “L” twin-cylinder, DOHC
- Displacement: 1198cc
- Horsepower: 195 hp at 10,750 rpm
- Torque: 132 Nm at 9,000 rpm
Ducati 1199S Panigale
I also checked out the 1199S Panigale. This one’s even faster, with a top speed of 292 km/h, and it weighs the same as the 1199. It’s got the same engine specs, too. And just like the 1199, I found nine awesome photos of this beauty.
- Top Speed: 292 km/h
- Weight: 164 kg
- Engine: Same as 1199
After that, I found some comparisons between the 899 and the 1199. I was curious to see how the less powerful 899 stacked up against the 1199. There was some solid performance data to look through.
Then I stumbled upon an article that broke down the differences between the 899 and the 1199. It covered key features, performance, and design elements. It was a tough choice, but it helped me understand both bikes better.

Finally, I read about the 1199 Superleggera. Only 500 of these were ever made, and it was a hit right away. No wonder, it’s a special machine.
So, after all this digging, I’ve got a much better understanding of the Ducati 1199 and its variations. It’s been a fun ride learning about these incredible bikes!
