This 1/12 scale model assembly kit recreates the Superleggera V4 of which only 500 of the full-size motorcycle were produced. The Superleggera V4 is a road-legal version of the Panigale V4 produced by the legendary Italian motorcycle manufacturer, Ducati. This motorcycle?s cornerstone is in the lightening, facilitated by carbon fiber material in the fairings, chassis and swing arm, and its eye-catching design features the distinctive carbon fiber biplane wings on either side of the front cowl, for aerodynamics. The engine is the Desmosedici Stradale R, a 998cc V4 powerplant with Ducati?s Desmodromic valve timing system. The full-size motorcycle also uses ?hlins suspension and Brembo brake system. In addition, installation of the Akrapovi? titanium muffler? which is for the racing kit ? with a dedicated engine part results in a superb power/weight ratio of 1.54hp/ kg.
Key Features:
The V4 engine, swing arm, front fork, side cowlings and fuel tank are attached to frame by screws. Side cowlings and fuel tank are removable even after assembly.
Chain parts are split into right and left, and finely recreate roller sections.
Front and rear brake rotors have depictions of holes.
Includes metal transfers to render mirrors realistically.
Decals authentically depict subtle red gradation patterns and carbon fiber material of side cowlings.
Synthetic rubber tires feature tread patterns, and Pirelli logos which can be recreated by decals.

Take a look at the rear of the bike, with its racy form featuring a swing arm attached on one side.
Four biplane wing aero devices on the front are reminiscent of a MotoGP bike, and are recreated in style.
Cowls and undercover can be removed after completion of the model to admire the design beneath.
Depictions of the 998cc engine and the fuel tank are screw-attached to the model's frame.
Renderings of the engine-rear shock and exhaust are well worth closer inspection.
Take a closer look at the finely drilled brake rotors and brembo caliper.
