Far more than a celebratory paint-liveried machine, this special edition is built on the 2023 Panigale V4 S platform and is equipped with an array of high-performance upgrades. Ducati fitted the bike with a race-focused seat, a dry clutch, Akrapovič exhaust system, carbon-fibre exhaust cover and mudguards, Brembo braking components, and fully adjustable Rizoma billet footpegs. Together, these enhancements underscore the model’s dual character as both a tribute collector’s item and a serious track-capable superbike.
Iconic Auctioneers, which is overseeing the sale, has confirmed that the motorcycle will be delivered with a suite of factory-supplied track accessories. These include an open carbon clutch cover, a kit for removing the number plate and mirrors, and a racing-style fuel tank cap—features that appeal strongly to performance enthusiasts and collectors seeking authenticity and completeness.
The motorcycle will be offered during The Iconic Sale at Race Retro 2026 – Motorcycles, scheduled for February 2026. Reflecting its rarity, provenance, and factory upgrades, auction estimates place the expected selling price between £35,000 (approximately ₹42 lakh) and £45,000 (around ₹53 lakh). For collectors of championship memorabilia and limited-production superbikes, the sale marks a significant opportunity to acquire one of Ducati’s most exclusive modern-era machines.
As anticipation builds, the upcoming auction highlights the growing demand for race-inspired motorcycles tied to major sporting milestones—vehicles that increasingly occupy a prized niche in high-end automotive collections worldwide.
