I owned a 999 back when they first came out. I wanted to love her, I really did. I saw more problems with her than my prior 30 bikes put together. It was like being married to a porn star who is also prone to committing domestic violence. Like every domestic violence victim, I thought it was me. That I needed to change. That things would get better. I finally realized that things wouldn’t get better right about the time the top end blew up. Ducati bought it back because it was such a piece of shit. I blew the dust off my R1, which had been sitting for almost 6 months. Fired right up as if I just rode it the day before. I’ll never be mesmerized by Ducati again.
It really depends on the bike, my dad has an 1199 Tricolore, he bought it from new and has had no issues over 9 years. It's been to the track a bunch of times and he commutes to and from work on it
I have 21,000 on my 2011 848 and have only done the break-in service, 15k service. I haven't replaced anything besides tires and oil, still on the original chain.
yep. that's why I love my honda. but hey, if your definition of living is fixing your bike, instead of riding it, go ahead and fix your ducati every 2 km's.
Thanks for the info dude and good to hear you RIDE the thing/DUCATI ...love them, had a 916 and a 996SPS ...no problems at ALL ...only masses of torque and a sound to die for ...drive fast and safe ...Sky
This video is GREAT. I watched it at least 3 times. THANK YOU for taking your time to inform all us 1199 & 1299 owners what to keep a eye on. GOOD JOB !!!!!!
Great story. I commuted from Edinburgh to Glasgow in the early eighties on a 500 Pantah. Ate batteries if you let it but was reliable as hell and a pleasure to ride. Oh the whirlies roundabout at 7 AM!!
Man, great GREAT video - I have been interested in the Panigale since it's debut in 2012. I appreciate the honest, no bullshit review of your Ducati. Thank you
Really enjoyed this video man. I think you've got a knack for reviews and videos in general. I'd recommend you do more in the future. Great bike too :)
The same mileage on my R1, nothing went wrong, only needed routine servicing. Like everyone else I’ll enjoy looking at them but won’t be buying now. Now I see why many used ones only do 3000 miles in 3 years! Great honest review.
Great review...No magazines go into real problems faced long term even when they run long termers and also these bloggers don't give problems as a lot are paid and some just can't see past the whole pride of ownership. Thanks for this. I will own this bike one day, but for now I need the Japanese reliability so run a 11 ZX10R
A lot of riding is image and ego…very limiting. I enjoy pretty much every type of bike and style of riding. I’d have a garage full of bikes if I had my druthers. Cheers
Enjoyable and informative video! I've been smitten with the Supersport S since I saw the first picture. Much like yourself bikes tend to be my primary mode of everyday travel so I've been trying to learn as much as possible about what it's like to live with a Ducati. Thank goodness you actually put miles on your Panigale and I stumbled on your video. The only repair I found unsettling was the forks. That just sounds way too soon for the coating to be coming and way too expensive if you hadn't had the warranty.
Best mod I ever did to my '12 1199S was putting a '14 899 seat on it! It's a cheap man's comfort seat but it's significantly thicker and only costed me $50. Night and day difference.
Tuesdaysgonewtw he basically saying that basically because Ducati has a bad rap for needing lots of service, always down, always need repair, basically you have to become a mechanic because of how much attention it needs.
That is the best review on a bike on u tube ever. well done mate a real biker that can work on his own machine and a fair ac i've opened quite a few ducati over the years have a diavel s at present but i remember taking the 1199 out when they first appeared and have never been so impressed with a motorcycle before this is a thoroughbred race machine that has been ridden as it was intended to so you would expect wear and tear as opposed to a toy that some potter about on a sunday. fkn loved the review respect
Bloody oath mate my 06zx10 bought new 58k no issues except for a stator at 28k now has 58k.ive bought 2 Italian bikes new Aprilia RSVR and Ducati 996.they rode great but overall they're overpriced garbage when it comes down to it.
This convinced me to never buy a Ducati lol. All sorts of crap wearing out if you actually ride the thing. It would probably end up parked for long amounts of time while I saved up to fix it.
Jakalwarrior All the Ducati's in my area for sale are mostly just a few miles below the major services, lol. This is why I bought a Japanese bike. For the price of the Ducati, I actually got two.
Bredaxe I've got a Japanese and an Austrian. The KTM design isn't as well thought out and bullet proof as Japanese ones usually are, but at least the maintenance is affordable and nothing leaks.
Jesus, never buy a Buell then! I had an XB12-R from new and it started to corrode after 50 dry miles. It had 2 recalls for items in it's first 6 months and the overall build quality was pretty shoddy. In comparison, my 1991 Ducati 900ss had very few problems in the 10 years I had it. I had 1 'major' problem over that time when the voltage regulator/rectifier overheated and caught fire. (It was Japanese, a Nippondenso unit) I replaced it with an aftermarket item that was higher rated and never had anymore problems from it. I did 32,000 miles and had it serviced for valve clearances only. Everything else I did myself. Oil filters were incredibly cheap as they are the same item as fitted to a Citroen 2CV! The only thing I would have changed would be the electrical cabling dealing with the starter motor. Too weedy. Beefier cables would have got rid of the problem I had with the bike's poor starting. I had no more problems with it than I had with my previous 3 Japanese bikes.
I had a Buell Ulysses XB12XT that also had a two-year warranty, I had over £2,500 spent on it in that time, I remember taking it back one time the guy said we only see you when you want something, I said your the one that gave me the warranty lol, he then said you want perfection you should have brought a Honda great salesman he was lol, so now is one reason I have a Fireblade ;-).
I remember my dad owned a Ducati Monster 750 and he spent more time trying to start it than he did riding it. Beautiful bike with the dry tambourine clutch but an absolute pain in the ass to commute with. You got pretty lucky with that thing, man, seems like a peach.
people complaining must have bikes falling apart lol, my 2014 r1 had clutch issues at less than 2k, if you ride like this guy and put that many miles on that quick then of course your gona wear things out lol, also at less than 2k my r1 had a heavy oil seep from the case. all his stuff was minor
I daily drove an SV650 for 2 years straight, no car at all, and it never gave me ANY of these issues. All his stuff was minor?? New, $2500 each, forks at 18,000 miles? Hardly minor...
Takes a shower with his helmet… releases some wind… tapes a phone onto this ducuti…😂😂😂 immediately subscribed!! LOL the great taste in bike also helps 👍🏼
any old guy like me knows that an Alfa Romeo and a Ducati are totally unreliable and total shit. However you love them. These are machines that make you scared. You have to have owned one or you haven't lived.
I,m 65 ive seen Ducati come and go twice. The only person I ever saw with 2 Ducatis , bought the second one to keep the first one running. This is same for Alfa, Fiat even the cars with the horses. All complicated expensive and way over rated. Has anyone ever seen a Ferrari with a 100,000 miles on it. I ride a 2008 Yamaha FZ1 it has 74,000 miles on it. It has never been back to the dealer. Still keeps me smiling .Last year with 70,000 it ran 10.90 quarter mile. Original clutch.may change it this year. But I can work on it. I will say ride what you love thats all that matters
The new Ducatis are so much more reliable these days, they aren't the same little company they were when they gained the reputation for being high maintenance and finicky. They are now even better than the standard they were at when Harley owned them. Now with the king of the auto industry in charge, their facilities and manufacturing standards are better than most Japanese. Since the VW Audi Group bought Ducati, the quality and dealership backing has greatly improved. They just haven't kicked their harley reputation yet because not many can afford them so not many are out there to be seen by non enthusiasts that arent savy enough to understand the new engineering and manufacturing standards they are made with.
It's like comparing a 50 year old italian supercar to a new Lamborghini. The reliability is night and day. The new Lamborghinis for the last ten years have been basically a bullet proof Audi R8. It's become a reliable, easy to drive, and safe, daily driving commuter. Gone are the days of exoctics that spend more time at the shop than driving on the road. No more being stranded constantly if you aren't a mechanic. They are just as practical as any Japanese sports car, usualy share the same electronics too. Only thing that changes is higher end materials and the styling. A new ducati is like buying a yamaha superbike and upgrading the suspension, brakes, and adding some lightweight wheels and carbon fiber pieces. This is why an R1M with all thise parts costs 23 grand and the new italian superbikes are made in greater numbers and sold for competitive pices. A new Aprilia RSV4 base model is only 16 grand and has similar service intervals as its Japanese counterparts.
no.1 this guy bought a demo bike which means a tonne of different guys either thrashed the bike or rode it in a messed up way. no.2 the guy doesn't know that the traction control settings are can be changed . remember aswell this bike has had an ecu upgrade which means if it was installed or tuned wrong there's your answer there. I ve had 2 ! Ducati Panigale 899's and haven't had all the problems this bike has had. plus I flog the crap out of both of them!
The traction control was "turned-off" coincident to the launch problem. How do I know? I turned it off. Bad listening comprehension. Your grammar could use some improvement as well.
This is the type of dude youtube randomly reccomends to you at 3am and eventually you end up laughing your balls off. LOL great video man!!! Keep up the good work!!!
Great video. Thanks for sharing. I just picked up a 2016 1299 S this April and I've got 2,000 miles on it... Forget the haters. It's slightly more maintenance than my Honda & Suzuki, but has 10 times the character.
Jesus christ, so many problems at just 22k miles? Damn, no wonder people say ducati's are unreliable. I got ninja at 20k miles and ever had one problem. 1 wire needed resoldering. Thats all...
No they "devalue" like any other vehicle in the world. Has to be enough money less than buying a brand new vehicle... like everything else. Japanese bike are cheaper and have an even cheaper resale- I don't get your point. lol
Thanks for the review. I really appreciate it. I'm currently at the only point in my life I'll ever be at, with enough disposable income to go out and just buy a new bike. I expect kids will be demanded soon, and by the time that's over, I'll be surprised if there's much fun available at all that still powered by fossil fuels. I've got an old '56 Velocette, '79 Guzzi Lemans, an '88 650 HawkGT(BROS) and a '98 zx7r, and I love em all to bits for different reasons, (and I can convert them all to run on alcohol if I have to), but always wanted that Ducati. It would have been a 916, but, my Mrs is German, and from a family obsessed with things being perfect, in order, reliable, of quality, and her dads told her all about older Ducati reliability and practicality. The other odd thing is that she's consistently encouraging the purchase, and she basically hates motorbikes. Dirty, smelly, dangerous, noisy, impracticle. This might be because I do a lot of miles, and I have to fix my bikes quite a lot as a result, (and that time could be spent fixing the house). The newest is 19 years old, and has a LOT on the clocks. In the past few months, I've had the original rad problems (fixed by replacing with one shipped from glorious un-salty California - £100 delivered to my door - gracias) Rearsets gear lever break (corroded through where joins the linkage), replaced front master cylinder, brake discs/pads, did my clearances, oil etc. I've got a spare set of forks ready to strip and replace the stanchions on, as I'll need that in a few K. It happens in gluts, and then I need to spend a chunk of cash to keep it roadworthy, and she thinks that would be better spent on a 'problem free' new bike. She's also overheard all my youtubing while I learned about all these new electronics, cornering ABS, cornering traction control (both of which, I would rather like, as my commute in the UK is both long at 130 mile round trip, and there's often a sort of 'lucky-dip' type of surface around blind bends, maybe a giant puddle, maybe gravel after the puddle has gone, mud from farm traffic, diesel spills, etc...) and wants it to have all the latest and greatest 'rider saftey aids' cos she doesn't want me to die, which is nice, but it means I can't slip a 916, or a 1098/848 in under the radar, and I think even the 959 panigale lacks a lot of it (I'd have liked the 1098/1198, last of the line really, belts, steel trellis, fits my body too), and leaves me with the latest crop of superbikes. I'm partial to a Kawasaki, so thinking of a zx10r, plush suspension, good brakes, all the electronics, but no downchange on the quickshifter, unless you buy an RR (so I probably would cos its only another 2 grand), but, kinda, standard Jap styling - nothing to write home about. Not reeeeally into the S1000RR - it just doesn't make me need it, even though the heated grips would be lush in winter. I'm sure it's great, but somehow feels too utilitarian, and I don't need to win races on tracks. I'll be trying a fireblade SP2, just for shits and giggles, but I don't want it. I just fancy a go on the bike that McGuinness and Martin couldn't stay on, and getting a test ride is easy here. Rather buy an RC45! Or even an RC51. or both. Yamaha - I'm sure its great, but I'm not into it , it doesn't fit me, I'm tall - rather have a TZR250, (which I'd have a reason to be too big for), a Supermono, or an OWO2 for the money. Suzuki? no interest somehow. KTM - nope. But anyway, yeah, a good objective review - It'd be nice if I could find reviews of the BMW, the Kwak and the Duke all having done 3 British winters, but I think your review is about as close as I'm gonna get with that. Is the headlight any good? Great music.
Is it weird that I worry that, if I buy a 1299, in 20 years time, I might not be able to find petrol for it, and then due to all the electronics, it just won't run and I won't be able to ride it?
If you buy the Panigale S model, it comes equipped with LED headlights which are considerably brighter than conventional lighting. 1299S Panigale, 1290 SuperDuke, SuperDuke GT, Yamaha MT10, and Indian Scout are bikes I would check out.
This is a valid point, but you think we have A/C here? ;) Germans call this 'Worrying about unlaid eggs'. I worry more about smashing into a deer, in the dark fog and murk of winter, but not until it nearly happens. Seriously though - they have the whole countryside to stand around in.
This is great. I love it when people actually ride their bikes; it's a rare thing in the US, most of them only couple out for a couple of K a year. Quite impressed with the access to the rear cylinder with the tank off. That's very tidy.
So what i understand from your review (which was really informing) Ducati makes cool looking bikes which have crappy build quality, full of ongoing problems and cost an arm and a leg to fix & maintain... Thanks but no thanks. I'll stick with my bmw which i ride like i stole it. After 15k, i'm yet to face a problem. At least that's my 2 cents worth of opinion. Considering those mirrors, you can keep the change :p
I love Jim from Seacoast. I am hopefully about to buy a Ducati 959 here soon and will have them service everything with it. Great Ducati shop in the Northeast! Have a great day bro.
man that sounds like you ride worrying about your bike than anything else. my 2013 kawasaki zx6r 636 I bought off the show room floor with 0 miles on it 15870 miles later only oil change. if it was for warrantie that would cost you a lot.
Japanese is the way to go. Cheap, realiable and great performance. Unlike a Panigale which you have to baby it or else you might break something and have to spend thousands to fix it.
Buy Japanese I still have a 1995 gsxr 1100 and never, I mean NEVER an oil leak. 2005 Honda CBR 1100XX, same thing, best bike I ever had, perfect, not an issue, not one !! Cars are germans, girls are blond and bikes are Japanese.
Really cool video that makes you want to ride an 1199! Great sound effects and innovation. Most entertaining bike review I have watched. Thanks! It makes me want to go look at a 2014 with 10,500 miles for $10,000.
Wow, is it my bike u have cos I had all the same problems except for the mirrors. Sorry to say but the quality sucks on Ducati as much as it have the good looks...
Suzuki all the way for me. love the way ducati bikes look etc but its like being with a hot gf, too expensive to maintain and in the end not worth it lmfao
nice review fella, i have a 1199s 2012, bought it brand new, fucking love it i have just had my 15k service done, my screen TFT went, map sensors,ecu over the five years I've owned it but best bike I've ever owned, i too like to ride em not look at them, here in England it rains too much so we go over to Spain and France
Very nice review Fancy Animal - thanks for posting it. It was great to see a factual review without any of the typical Ducati owner bias (you know, the one that leaves the viewer realizing that they really believe nothing ever goes wrong with a Ducati - it just can't because it's the Ferrari of motorcycles therefore it's not possible). I'd love to have one on with the proper understanding that it's going to be more work then my CBR 600 RR but that it clearly brings a lot to the table in return. Thanks!
jesse van vliet guy I ride with has a 1299. Sounds bleh. Another rider we ride with has an RC8. Sounds much better. Even SV650s sound better. Probably an engine design quirk. Whatever, it makes great power. I wouldn't complain if I owned one.
No one wins a religious argument and many of the comments here are just that. Inline 4s are not boring if you exist in a vacuum. Aside from an RC30 or RC51, I can't recall too many Honda engines that exhibited a lot of character....and character is the essence of a MOTOR-bike.
Fancy Animal Except if I gotta bring the damn bike to the dealer if I rode it a couple of times nah fk that shit. Character doesnt mean spending alot of extra money for a piece of good looking trash.
I have the 2012 1199 base model Panigale, and I have 25K miles on my bike. I have had some of the problems that you've experienced and some that you haven't. The swing-arm axle on my bike was loose when I bought the bike. Fortunately the dealership caught that or I'd be dead by now. I'm surprised that you haven't replaced the stock foot pegs. I thought the stock pegs were very slippery. I've had no problems with my mirrors - but I have never folded them back like you appear to have done. Have you ever carried a passenger on your bike? After my swing-arm axle experience, I've been afraid to let anyone else ride with me. Thanks for you thorough review.
waytoosquirrelly I've had a number of lady friends on the back without issue. I periodically go around and check the wheel, front subframe, and swing arm fasteners. Never been loose. Although I did a track day and the dealer did the front tire swap right before...140mph all day and the front axil clamp screws were loose!!! Check people's work. I suggest you check the front subframe-to cylinder head bolts next time you change the air filter. Cheers!!
My bike is the 2012 1199 Panigale, the first of the Panigales and the one that drew a LOT of criticism for excessive engine heat. Mine does not have the plastic heat shields that yours has. If you wanted to take your heat shields off, I don't think you'd notice that much difference. Only if I'm stuck in traffic on a very hot day would I say that the engine heat was excessive. Too much was made of that heat problem in my view.
600 miles on a Ninja 300 first then 6000 miles on a cbr650f. I was looking to move up to a 959 but I’m rough on my bikes sometimes and I’m young so I can’t afford this level of maintenance. so this review will probably scare me away from what I consider my dream bike. Thank you for taking the time to do this video and go as in-depth as you did.
kyle b I rode a CB700S for 20 years. Still have it. Someday the Ducati maintenance cost will seem like a reasonable trade. Until then, enjoy riding and work towards the dream. Cheers!
My Bone stock Panigale 164hp to the wheel, full termi exhaust, and bazzaz -FI. I now put 185hp to the wheel. I would say that is a pretty big power increase for the bike.
What a sad load of rubbish. Over 40,000 k's on my CBR1000rr, and nothing has gone wrong, or broken down... NOTHING ! AND THE STUPID THING BURNS YOUR LEG... O SHIT NO !
Unfortunately CBR is out of Panigale's league when it comes to power, weight and handling, unless it is SP2, and even then, it is not as good looking and sounding bike, slower too... I sold my 190hp '12 1krr, 4 months after getting a Panigale anniversario, because I stopped riding it.
Nice Video. Good to know there are poeple appreciating bikes. Have a K1300 with 90000km on it in the last 4 years. Only had my services and had to replace the rear shock.
Another scam don't replace unless it shows signs of leaking. Never needed to replace one yet, just don't get dirt on it when changing the oil, if you do wash it with oil, good as brand new
I LOVE YOUR REVIEW!!!! Some one who actually has ridden the damn thing put some miles on at and left a review! People don't know what the fuck a review is anymore. Your not some snobbie ass hole either, just a dude with his bike doing what he loves. I put about 10k a year on my Duc 1100s, beat the crap out of it, ride it, and use it for what its built for! After this I'm sold, I'm going to buy a 1299 next spring now. Thanks Fancy Animal.
Beautiful bike, they nailed the looks on the Panigale. You gotta love the bike to say "Rumors of heat with this bike are greatly exaggerated" I only have a burn marks on my leg but its not that bad :P I gotta say worst I ever got from my GSXR some very warm air blown at me by cooling fans when they kick in traffic at 105°C. Good vid :)
If they do it right it shouldn’t leak. I got to the 30k mile valve adjustment with no leaks. I did the valves myself and sealed it following Kyle’s RTV pattern and no leaks at 36k.
What I've learned from the video, ride your panigale as much as you can while its still under warranty.
steve kno yes and always brush your teeth
steve kno yup like Yamaha before the gear box explodes
Except Yamaha has a 100,000 mile warranty for life on their new bikes.
steve kno no one is disputing that Yamaha makes a good product. Ride what you enjoy.
Dougie You've never even had a Yamaha, let alone ride a motorcycle. You are just basing your comment on "gossip" from online threads.
I owned a 999 back when they first came out. I wanted to love her, I really did. I saw more problems with her than my prior 30 bikes put together. It was like being married to a porn star who is also prone to committing domestic violence. Like every domestic violence victim, I thought it was me. That I needed to change. That things would get better. I finally realized that things wouldn’t get better right about the time the top end blew up. Ducati bought it back because it was such a piece of shit.

“It was like being married to a porn star who is also prone to domestic violence “ Best analogy ever 🤣🤣🤣
Awesome sauce
It really depends on the bike, my dad has an 1199 Tricolore, he bought it from new and has had no issues over 9 years. It's been to the track a bunch of times and he commutes to and from work on it
999 was one of the worst and most unreliable motorcycles every built
What year was it
I have 21,000 on my 2011 848 and have only done the break-in service, 15k service. I haven't replaced anything besides tires and oil, still on the original chain.
phillirofl you deserve a strawberry scratch n sniff sticker. Come over here. 21k chain...you're the man.
That timing belt though...
I have 85k kms on my CBR150r 2013, only replaced Tires,chain and sprocket, oils and brake pads. And headlight bulb twice.
smells funny 21k on a chain cough cough
@@janwilliamagonoy try replacing your headlight fluid. That will fix it.
I love your philosophy... Why commute in something you hate just to save a bit of money! You only live once, so fking live!
Why do you think people hate their bikes? I fucking love mine and NOT having to tinker with a duc is simply an added bonus.
yep. that's why I love my honda. but hey, if your definition of living is fixing your bike, instead of riding it, go ahead and fix your ducati every 2 km's.
Thanks for the info dude and good to hear you RIDE the thing/DUCATI ...love them,

Extremely entertaining man, especially your morning scene 🤣
Paul Rose cheers mate
Man, great GREAT video - I have been interested in the Panigale since it's debut in 2012. I appreciate the honest, no bullshit review of your Ducati. Thank you
Scott Lincoln I'd buy the same bike knowing everything up to this point. There's nothing more fun and visceral in a sportbike.
@@FancyAnimal would you buy it *used* without a warranty?
Holy hell. It seems you have replaced about everything on that bike. Best looking bike out there but seems like one hell of a headache.
rschoultz5304 i have to admit I loved every minute of it.
love this review!! no censorship, straight up truth, fun and extremely informative !! subscribed.
Really enjoyed this video man. I think you've got a knack for reviews and videos in general. I'd recommend you do more in the future. Great bike too :)
Thanks for the encouragement. I wish I could get my mom to sit on a motorcycle. Are you worried about your woman riding?
The same mileage on my R1, nothing went wrong, only needed routine servicing. Like everyone else I’ll enjoy looking at them but won’t be buying now. Now I see why many used ones only do 3000 miles in 3 years! Great honest review.
Thank you good sir, for a thorough, comprehensive and very honest review.
Supernova12034 you're welcome sir.
Quality video, and a rare beast considering the mileage. Bravo for actually riding it.
Great review...No magazines go into real problems faced long term even when they run long termers and also these bloggers don't give problems as a lot are paid and some just can't see past the whole pride of ownership. Thanks for this. I will own this bike one day, but for now I need the Japanese reliability so run a 11 ZX10R
A lot of riding is image and ego…very limiting. I enjoy pretty much every type of bike and style of riding. I’d have a garage full of bikes if I had my druthers. Cheers
very witty and informative, I changed seat and rearsets, gear sensor at 13k, fork seals at 12k, usual Ducati stuff..
gave me some confidence, just hit 8k on my 2013 1199
Enjoyable and informative video! I've been smitten with the Supersport S since I saw the first picture. Much like yourself bikes tend to be my primary mode of everyday travel so I've been trying to learn as much as possible about what it's like to live with a Ducati. Thank goodness you actually put miles on your Panigale and I stumbled on your video. The only repair I found unsettling was the forks. That just sounds way too soon for the coating to be coming and way too expensive if you hadn't had the warranty.
Best mod I ever did to my '12 1199S was putting a '14 899 seat on it! It's a cheap man's comfort seat but it's significantly thicker and only costed me $50. Night and day difference.
A Ducati being ridden regularly ? Wtf
The intro is amazing..... loyk fookin amayyyyzing
Nice to see Ducati is still making mechanics out of riders... even in 2017. What an embarrassment.
He's a mechanical engineer bozo, what's your point? Oh, never mind, you don't have one.
Tuesdaysgonewtw he basically saying that basically because Ducati has a bad rap for needing lots of service, always down, always need repair, basically you have to become a mechanic because of how much attention it needs.
@@Tuesdaysgonewtw imagine if he wasnt.
And he's basically saying that basically the 'bad rap' that Ducati has isn't basically true.
That is the best review on a bike on u tube ever. well done mate a real biker that can work on his own machine and a fair ac i've opened quite a few ducati over the years have a diavel s at present but i remember taking the 1199 out when they first appeared and have never been so impressed with a motorcycle before
this is a thoroughbred race machine that has been ridden as it was intended to so you would expect wear and tear as opposed to a toy that some potter about on a sunday. fkn loved the review respect
My 28 yo Kawasaki hasn't had that many problems.
Damn starting to feel good about my decision to buy a kawasaki 400....:)

Bloody oath mate my 06zx10 bought new 58k no issues except for a stator at 28k now has 58k.ive bought 2 Italian bikes new Aprilia RSVR and Ducati 996.they rode great but overall they're overpriced garbage when it comes down to it.
This 22,000 mile Review is a Fucking Masterpiece of Journalism. Nice Work, Mate!
This convinced me to never buy a Ducati lol. All sorts of crap wearing out if you actually ride the thing. It would probably end up parked for long amounts of time while I saved up to fix it.
Jakalwarrior All the Ducati's in my area for sale are mostly just a few miles below the major services, lol. This is why I bought a Japanese bike. For the price of the Ducati, I actually got two.
Bredaxe I've got a Japanese and an Austrian. The KTM design isn't as well thought out and bullet proof as Japanese ones usually are, but at least the maintenance is affordable and nothing leaks.
Jakalwarrior well imy brother and friends of him never had any issues with their ducati.
super117knight how many miles?
Jesus, never buy a Buell then! I had an XB12-R from new and it started to corrode after 50 dry miles. It had 2 recalls for items in it's first 6 months and the overall build quality was pretty shoddy.
In comparison, my 1991 Ducati 900ss had very few problems in the 10 years I had it. I had 1 'major' problem over that time when the voltage regulator/rectifier overheated and caught fire. (It was Japanese, a Nippondenso unit) I replaced it with an aftermarket item that was higher rated and never had anymore problems from it.
I did 32,000 miles and had it serviced for valve clearances only. Everything else I did myself. Oil filters were incredibly cheap as they are the same item as fitted to a Citroen 2CV! The only thing I would have changed would be the electrical cabling dealing with the starter motor. Too weedy. Beefier cables would have got rid of the problem I had with the bike's poor starting. I had no more problems with it than I had with my previous 3 Japanese bikes.
The beginning of this vid was straight up back to the future lol. Loved it.
Damuskinous hey kid, what did you do...jump ship? What’s with the life preserver?
@@FancyAnimal LOL!
This makes me just want to buy an R1 or Fireblade.
I vote Fireblade😉
Same. I've been binge watching Ducati videos and I'm like, nope, going back to Japanese.
This video was phenomenally entertaining! Subbed!
TheString Breaker cheers mate!
The only that scares me is the price of those forks...that being said. I just purchased a Panigale R...wish me luck!
Just enjoy life man. There are no guarantees we'll come down for breakfast in the morning. Cheers!
Did you had luck so far?
@@bruderrudiger9574 been awesome so far. No problems!
I like your straight-talking no-bs attitude. subbed.
Hey man, so how is the panigale holding up after almost 2 years after this was posted ?
Stolen
@@slamdiesel4576 foreal????
@@slamdiesel4576 aww man thatbsucks
Seth E dude, that sucks.
I had a Buell Ulysses XB12XT that also had a two-year warranty, I had over £2,500 spent on it in that time, I remember taking it back one time the guy said we only see you when you want something, I said your the one that gave me the warranty lol, he then said you want perfection you should have brought a Honda great salesman he was lol, so now is one reason I have a Fireblade ;-).
So RSV4 next? Awesome review by the way.
I remember my dad owned a Ducati Monster 750 and he spent more time trying to start it than he did riding it. Beautiful bike with the dry tambourine clutch but an absolute pain in the ass to commute with. You got pretty lucky with that thing, man, seems like a peach.
people complaining must have bikes falling apart lol, my 2014 r1 had clutch issues at less than 2k, if you ride like this guy and put that many miles on that quick then of course your gona wear things out lol, also at less than 2k my r1 had a heavy oil seep from the case. all his stuff was minor
BurninRubber93 I have a yamaha fz1 with 70000 miles. It has no leaks and runs good.
I daily drove an SV650 for 2 years straight, no car at all, and it never gave me ANY of these issues.
All his stuff was minor?? New, $2500 each, forks at 18,000 miles? Hardly minor...
Takes a shower with his helmet… releases some wind… tapes a phone onto this ducuti…😂😂😂
immediately subscribed!! LOL the great taste in bike also helps 👍🏼
Love the singing, it was surprisingly good! Nice Duc too, etc.
any old guy like me knows that an Alfa Romeo and a Ducati are totally unreliable and total shit. However you love them. These are machines that make you scared. You have to have owned one or you haven't lived.
Like having an Italian woman....can only have one in a lifetime.
black hair big tits and oh mama :)
I,m 65 ive seen Ducati come and go twice. The only person I ever saw with 2 Ducatis , bought the second one to keep the first one running. This is same for Alfa, Fiat even the cars with the horses. All complicated expensive and way over rated. Has anyone ever seen a Ferrari with a 100,000 miles on it. I ride a 2008 Yamaha FZ1 it has 74,000 miles on it. It has never been back to the dealer. Still keeps me smiling .Last year with 70,000 it ran 10.90 quarter mile. Original clutch.may change it this year. But I can work on it. I will say ride what you love thats all that matters
The new Ducatis are so much more reliable these days, they aren't the same little company they were when they gained the reputation for being high maintenance and finicky. They are now even better than the standard they were at when Harley owned them. Now with the king of the auto industry in charge, their facilities and manufacturing standards are better than most Japanese. Since the VW Audi Group bought Ducati, the quality and dealership backing has greatly improved. They just haven't kicked their harley reputation yet because not many can afford them so not many are out there to be seen by non enthusiasts that arent savy enough to understand the new engineering and manufacturing standards they are made with.
It's like comparing a 50 year old italian supercar to a new Lamborghini. The reliability is night and day. The new Lamborghinis for the last ten years have been basically a bullet proof Audi R8. It's become a reliable, easy to drive, and safe, daily driving commuter. Gone are the days of exoctics that spend more time at the shop than driving on the road. No more being stranded constantly if you aren't a mechanic. They are just as practical as any Japanese sports car, usualy share the same electronics too. Only thing that changes is higher end materials and the styling. A new ducati is like buying a yamaha superbike and upgrading the suspension, brakes, and adding some lightweight wheels and carbon fiber pieces. This is why an R1M with all thise parts costs 23 grand and the new italian superbikes are made in greater numbers and sold for competitive pices. A new Aprilia RSV4 base model is only 16 grand and has similar service intervals as its Japanese counterparts.
In spite of the initial 3 minutes of my wasted time...lol...the actual information was quite useful. Thank you!
no.1 this guy bought a demo bike which means a tonne of different guys either thrashed the bike or rode it in a messed up way.
no.2 the guy doesn't know that the traction control settings are can be changed .
remember aswell this bike has had an ecu upgrade which means if it was installed or tuned wrong there's your answer there.
I ve had 2 ! Ducati Panigale 899's and haven't had all the problems this bike has had.
plus I flog the crap out of both of them!
The traction control was "turned-off" coincident to the launch problem. How do I know? I turned it off. Bad listening comprehension. Your grammar could use some improvement as well.
This makes me feel alot better
This is the type of dude youtube randomly reccomends to you at 3am and eventually you end up laughing your balls off. LOL great video man!!! Keep up the good work!!!
Meanwhile my 20k mile 2016 R1 has only needed an O-ring for the water pump return hose @ 18k miles...
Covered under warranty.
And you're boring ...sorry bud
R1 has been having some issues. With the crank. Watch the workshop. Matt has been posting some videos on the Yamaha R1. Crank failure...
Great video. Thanks for sharing. I just picked up a 2016 1299 S this April and I've got 2,000 miles on it... Forget the haters. It's slightly more maintenance than my Honda & Suzuki, but has 10 times the character.
too funny lol good job my man
MAS IKI thanks
Fancy Animal .....is panigale good to buy??
Taqiesh Aqiesh. Yes. I'd give it a 7/10 for quality and 10/10 for fun and performance. I'd give CBR, R1, ZX10, S1000, RSV the opposite rating.
Thanks!!
Fancy Animal thanks
Just found your channel and your editing is absolutely hilarious. Subscribed.
Jesus christ, so many problems at just 22k miles? Damn, no wonder people say ducati's are unreliable.
I got ninja at 20k miles and ever had one problem. 1 wire needed resoldering. Thats all...
All 29hp wow.
I love this type of videos.... Please do another at 30,000 miles - always good to know what the issues are on Ducatis
I should be there shortly.
7500 mile 600rr service $20
Mike Rider used 600rr for sale $20
Mike Rider yeah, ducati owners only buy there bikes so they can tell people they own it.
Ducati's resell value is a joke, seriously. They devalue faster than any bike I have seen.
No they "devalue" like any other vehicle in the world. Has to be enough money less than buying a brand new vehicle... like everything else. Japanese bike are cheaper and have an even cheaper resale- I don't get your point. lol
Yeah ok! But it’s still a 600 🤢
Thanks for the review. I really appreciate it. I'm currently at the only point in my life I'll ever be at, with enough disposable income to go out and just buy a new bike. I expect kids will be demanded soon, and by the time that's over, I'll be surprised if there's much fun available at all that still powered by fossil fuels. I've got an old '56 Velocette, '79 Guzzi Lemans, an '88 650 HawkGT(BROS) and a '98 zx7r, and I love em all to bits for different reasons, (and I can convert them all to run on alcohol if I have to), but always wanted that Ducati.
It would have been a 916, but, my Mrs is German, and from a family obsessed with things being perfect, in order, reliable, of quality, and her dads told her all about older Ducati reliability and practicality. The other odd thing is that she's consistently encouraging the purchase, and she basically hates motorbikes. Dirty, smelly, dangerous, noisy, impracticle. This might be because I do a lot of miles, and I have to fix my bikes quite a lot as a result, (and that time could be spent fixing the house). The newest is 19 years old, and has a LOT on the clocks. In the past few months, I've had the original rad problems (fixed by replacing with one shipped from glorious un-salty California - £100 delivered to my door - gracias) Rearsets gear lever break (corroded through where joins the linkage), replaced front master cylinder, brake discs/pads, did my clearances, oil etc. I've got a spare set of forks ready to strip and replace the stanchions on, as I'll need that in a few K. It happens in gluts, and then I need to spend a chunk of cash to keep it roadworthy, and she thinks that would be better spent on a 'problem free' new bike.
She's also overheard all my youtubing while I learned about all these new electronics, cornering ABS, cornering traction control (both of which, I would rather like, as my commute in the UK is both long at 130 mile round trip, and there's often a sort of 'lucky-dip' type of surface around blind bends, maybe a giant puddle, maybe gravel after the puddle has gone, mud from farm traffic, diesel spills, etc...) and wants it to have all the latest and greatest 'rider saftey aids' cos she doesn't want me to die, which is nice, but it means I can't slip a 916, or a 1098/848 in under the radar, and I think even the 959 panigale lacks a lot of it (I'd have liked the 1098/1198, last of the line really, belts, steel trellis, fits my body too), and leaves me with the latest crop of superbikes. I'm partial to a Kawasaki, so thinking of a zx10r, plush suspension, good brakes, all the electronics, but no downchange on the quickshifter, unless you buy an RR (so I probably would cos its only another 2 grand), but, kinda, standard Jap styling - nothing to write home about. Not reeeeally into the S1000RR - it just doesn't make me need it, even though the heated grips would be lush in winter. I'm sure it's great, but somehow feels too utilitarian, and I don't need to win races on tracks. I'll be trying a fireblade SP2, just for shits and giggles, but I don't want it. I just fancy a go on the bike that McGuinness and Martin couldn't stay on, and getting a test ride is easy here. Rather buy an RC45! Or even an RC51. or both. Yamaha - I'm sure its great, but I'm not into it , it doesn't fit me, I'm tall - rather have a TZR250, (which I'd have a reason to be too big for), a Supermono, or an OWO2 for the money. Suzuki? no interest somehow. KTM - nope. But anyway, yeah, a good objective review - It'd be nice if I could find reviews of the BMW, the Kwak and the Duke all having done 3 British winters, but I think your review is about as close as I'm gonna get with that.
Is the headlight any good?
Great music.
Is it weird that I worry that, if I buy a 1299, in 20 years time, I might not be able to find petrol for it, and then due to all the electronics, it just won't run and I won't be able to ride it?
If you buy the Panigale S model, it comes equipped with LED headlights which are considerably brighter than conventional lighting. 1299S Panigale, 1290 SuperDuke, SuperDuke GT, Yamaha MT10, and Indian Scout are bikes I would check out.
An A/C unit may slip out of an apartment window 4 stories above your head as you walk by, so I guess you could worry about that instead.
This is a valid point, but you think we have A/C here? ;) Germans call this 'Worrying about unlaid eggs'.
I worry more about smashing into a deer, in the dark fog and murk of winter, but not until it nearly happens. Seriously though - they have the whole countryside to stand around in.
Acepants Tibs I've got the Ducati Streetfighter 848 and love it. I just bought the BMW S1000XR...I love that even more! Try it.
OMG the Camry part had me rolling
This is great. I love it when people actually ride their bikes; it's a rare thing in the US, most of them only couple out for a couple of K a year.
Quite impressed with the access to the rear cylinder with the tank off. That's very tidy.
So what i understand from your review (which was really informing) Ducati makes cool looking bikes which have crappy build quality, full of ongoing problems and cost an arm and a leg to fix & maintain... Thanks but no thanks. I'll stick with my bmw which i ride like i stole it. After 15k, i'm yet to face a problem. At least that's my 2 cents worth of opinion. Considering those mirrors, you can keep the change :p
I love Jim from Seacoast. I am hopefully about to buy a Ducati 959 here soon and will have them service everything with it. Great Ducati shop in the Northeast! Have a great day bro.
Man that's a lot of problems for an everyday bike. No thanks
It's not that bad... Come on bro
@@3star2nr when NO other bike has this many problems? yes it is
@@desertfresh3740 they have other issues...
No doubt, a fabulous Machine. Thats quiet a list of problems on a new bike, you must have the patience of a saint.
man that sounds like you ride worrying about your bike than anything else. my 2013 kawasaki zx6r 636 I bought off the show room floor with 0 miles on it 15870 miles later only oil change. if it was for warrantie that would cost you a lot.
BIKE GEAR MOTOVLOG if your poor it is expensive but people who buy Ducati aren't poor.
Says the guy with the Honda Accord to the guy in the Ferrari F40. Which would you rather own?
That's not true, I know someone who bought a 2010 Ducati and it's park in is garage right now.
Japanese is the way to go. Cheap, realiable and great performance. Unlike a Panigale which you have to baby it or else you might break something and have to spend thousands to fix it.
Daniel Kane says the guy with the Honda Accord to the guy with the F40.
Your intro is awesome. LOL. Really impressive work.
Thanks chief. Much appreciated.
Buy Japanese I still have a 1995 gsxr 1100 and never, I mean NEVER an oil leak. 2005 Honda CBR 1100XX, same thing, best bike I ever had, perfect, not an issue, not one !! Cars are germans, girls are blond and bikes are Japanese.
Sebastián Demaría you should buy a gallon of Edy's Neapolitan and take your haircut appts off the calendar. Variety is the spice of life...
Sebastián Demaría yeah except new german cars are built like shyt.
Joe D You are right, I will buy the new Alfa Romeo Giulia, nicer and better than a M4. Same or better quality.
Sebastián Demaría great choice
Sebastián Demaría girls are blonde
Really cool video that makes you want to ride an 1199! Great sound effects and innovation. Most entertaining bike review I have watched. Thanks! It makes me want to go look at a 2014 with 10,500 miles for $10,000.
Wow, is it my bike u have cos I had all the same problems except for the mirrors. Sorry to say but the quality sucks on Ducati as much as it have the good looks...
Dial 1 for English.
You can dial 2 for swedish
8:35 seconds in and i love his rawness. love it.
repair cost video on Ducati...30min video..yup never buying a ducaiti unless I'm rich and have like 5 other bikes
Says a guy who cherishes M money pit. I have had two Ms, including E60, never again. My 1299S zero problems.
im glad to know 7 years later all the noises on my ducati are universal lmao
Am I the only person reading all the comments and noticing that "fancy animal" (vids OP) is being highly salty when someone criticizes his bike?
Kutsy Nope def not only you
Loved your video and your commentary 😅😂😂😂. Awesome, you earned my subscription
Suzuki all the way for me. love the way ducati bikes look etc but its like being with a hot gf, too expensive to maintain and in the end not worth it lmfao
its soooooo worth it :)
Have you ever changed the spark plugs on your Ducati ?
Wearing black leather in the gay district xD
nice review fella, i have a 1199s 2012, bought it brand new, fucking love it i have just had my 15k service done, my screen TFT went, map sensors,ecu over the five years I've owned it but best bike I've ever owned, i too like to ride em not look at them, here in England it rains too much so we go over to Spain and France
When you want to get somewhere fast and in style then buy a Ducati. If you want to get home, buy a Japanese bike.
Very nice review Fancy Animal - thanks for posting it. It was great to see a factual review without any of the typical Ducati owner bias (you know, the one that leaves the viewer realizing that they really believe nothing ever goes wrong with a Ducati - it just can't because it's the Ferrari of motorcycles therefore it's not possible).
I'd love to have one on with the proper understanding that it's going to be more work then my CBR 600 RR but that it clearly brings a lot to the table in return. Thanks!
Man that exhaust sounds like a chinese pitbike 😂
You should hear a ducati irl
All Panigales do. Cause its a twin lmfao
Must be the Chinese speakers
jesse van vliet guy I ride with has a 1299. Sounds bleh. Another rider we ride with has an RC8. Sounds much better. Even SV650s sound better. Probably an engine design quirk. Whatever, it makes great power. I wouldn't complain if I owned one.
Jakalwarrior make a dinner plate and place your words in the center. Then search ducati 1199 panigale austin racing exhaust. Commence eating.
best intros on the internet
Or buy a Honda and have none of these issues for 40k km
I have a Honda and you're right. It's reliable....and boring....that's why I never ride it. I don't drive a Camry for the same reason.
But you buy boringness with a honda.
Fancy Animal why does reliable equate to boring? breaking down or shelling out a few grand is not my idea of excitement.
No one wins a religious argument and many of the comments here are just that. Inline 4s are not boring if you exist in a vacuum. Aside from an RC30 or RC51, I can't recall too many Honda engines that exhibited a lot of character....and character is the essence of a MOTOR-bike.
Fancy Animal Except if I gotta bring the damn bike to the dealer if I rode it a couple of times nah fk that shit.
Character doesnt mean spending alot of extra money for a piece of good looking trash.
I have the 2012 1199 base model Panigale, and I have 25K miles on my bike. I have had some of the problems that you've experienced and some that you haven't. The swing-arm axle on my bike was loose when I bought the bike. Fortunately the dealership caught that or I'd be dead by now. I'm surprised that you haven't replaced the stock foot pegs. I thought the stock pegs were very slippery. I've had no problems with my mirrors - but I have never folded them back like you appear to have done. Have you ever carried a passenger on your bike? After my swing-arm axle experience, I've been afraid to let anyone else ride with me. Thanks for you thorough review.
waytoosquirrelly I've had a number of lady friends on the back without issue. I periodically go around and check the wheel, front subframe, and swing arm fasteners. Never been loose. Although I did a track day and the dealer did the front tire swap right before...140mph all day and the front axil clamp screws were loose!!! Check people's work. I suggest you check the front subframe-to cylinder head bolts next time you change the air filter. Cheers!!
My bike is the 2012 1199 Panigale, the first of the Panigales and the one that drew a LOT of criticism for excessive engine heat. Mine does not have the plastic heat shields that yours has. If you wanted to take your heat shields off, I don't think you'd notice that much difference. Only if I'm stuck in traffic on a very hot day would I say that the engine heat was excessive. Too much was made of that heat problem in my view.
A fuckn Ducaaaaaati bro
CHINESE SCOOOTAH!!
Buy one and you gonna have "A Fucked Up Dayyy"!
600 miles on a Ninja 300 first then 6000 miles on a cbr650f. I was looking to move up to a 959 but I’m rough on my bikes sometimes and I’m young so I can’t afford this level of maintenance. so this review will probably scare me away from what I consider my dream bike. Thank you for taking the time to do this video and go as in-depth as you did.
kyle b I rode a CB700S for 20 years. Still have it. Someday the Ducati maintenance cost will seem like a reasonable trade. Until then, enjoy riding and work towards the dream. Cheers!
Absolute heaps of shit and I know I work for a Ducati dealership
betraying your employer while complicit in the purveyance of shit. Congrats!

You sound so defensive in these posts. Like you're still trying to justify something to yourself.
Gotta keep the bathrooms clean!
My Bone stock Panigale 164hp to the wheel, full termi exhaust, and bazzaz -FI. I now put 185hp to the wheel. I would say that is a pretty big power increase for the bike.
What a sad load of rubbish.
Over 40,000 k's on my CBR1000rr, and nothing has gone wrong, or broken down...
NOTHING !
AND THE STUPID THING BURNS YOUR LEG... O SHIT NO !
Unfortunately CBR is out of Panigale's league when it comes to power, weight and handling, unless it is SP2, and even then, it is not as good looking and sounding bike, slower too... I sold my 190hp '12 1krr, 4 months after getting a Panigale anniversario, because I stopped riding it.
Nice Video. Good to know there are poeple appreciating bikes. Have a K1300 with 90000km on it in the last 4 years. Only had my services and had to replace the rear shock.
Garbage on two wheels, motorcycle should not leak unless dropped
Crush washer.
2 WHEELED EYES PEELED lowsided my r1 into barb wire fence...no leaks/rode home gotta love Japanese reliability...I do want a s1000rr tho
Another scam don't replace unless it shows signs of leaking. Never needed to replace one yet, just don't get dirt on it when changing the oil, if you do wash it with oil, good as brand new
Fuck ya pick that bike up take a quick look, get it home, asses the damage and then check yourself lol, then fix it and then get back out riding.
2 WHEELED EYES PEELED yep lol mechanically it was all good..ordered new fairings before I even got home 😂
Accidentally clicked on the video, liked the editing & style, subbed.
Ducati are nothing more than poser bike for wannabes riders , Dude rides around to talk about his over priced motorcycle.
DR N try Stay Free maxi pads. They won't let the leakage stain your 12 year old GSXR 600's seat.
You don't need a sex change operation because you are a Bitch.
I've past your slow ass on the road, Bitch !
Homie's daily is a 1199 Ducati Panigale S. Respect brother!
Also this video is great man. Exposes a lot of myths with ducati ownership
I LOVE YOUR REVIEW!!!! Some one who actually has ridden the damn thing put some miles on at and left a review! People don't know what the fuck a review is anymore. Your not some snobbie ass hole either, just a dude with his bike doing what he loves. I put about 10k a year on my Duc 1100s, beat the crap out of it, ride it, and use it for what its built for! After this I'm sold, I'm going to buy a 1299 next spring now. Thanks Fancy Animal.
Your video editing skills are perfect for my ADHD
Beautiful bike, they nailed the looks on the Panigale. You gotta love the bike to say "Rumors of heat with this bike are greatly exaggerated" I only have a burn marks on my leg but its not that bad :P I gotta say worst I ever got from my GSXR some very warm air blown at me by cooling fans when they kick in traffic at 105°C. Good vid :)
HAHA dude i just found your channel. Love it. Nothing better than a comedian doing moto vlogs
Shoei shower safety es muy importante!! Very fun, great work!
Mine is a 2013 has 3700 miles on it and iv got the valve cover gasket leak covered under warranty but I hope to get it back soon.
If they do it right it shouldn’t leak. I got to the 30k mile valve adjustment with no leaks. I did the valves myself and sealed it following Kyle’s RTV pattern and no leaks at 36k.
