Overview

Introduced at the 2011 Milan Motor Show, the Ducati 1199 Panigale S was a revolution in superbike design. It abandoned Ducati's traditional trellis frame in favour of a groundbreaking aluminium monocoque where the powerful 1,198cc L-Twin engine itself is a structural component, connected directly to the swingarm and suspension. This, combined with a wealth of electronic aids and a sleek, aggressive design, ushered in a new future for high-performance motorcycles.

This 1/12 scale kit from Tamiya is a detailed replica of the innovative Italian superbike. The model's construction allows a full appreciation of the unique structure, with the engine integrated into the monocoque frame. A standout feature is the screw-attached side cowlings, which can be removed after assembly to showcase the intricate engine detail. The kit is completed with premium features like a metal rear suspension spring, realistic rubber tires, and a separate racing stand.
