Ducati: The Ferrari Of Bikes 

Why are Ducati bikes so expensive? Ducati bikes are considered the Ferrari of motorcycles in practically two things. First, because of the looks, most of Ducati bikes made famous are Ferrari red in color and secondly the price. Buying a Ducati bike is not a small matter. Buying this kind of bike actually means that you have money to spend on a hobby bike. As such as in a Ferrari, you do not just buy a Ferrari to use for your daily commute (or do you?). Having a Ferrari in your garage means that you really can spend a lot of money for a passion for cars.

Ducati bikes are so expensive. But even if they are a drain on the pocket, these bikes still lead in terms of sales. The Ducati 899 Panigale superbike topped the UK registrations in terms of sales that beat sales figures of lower end scooters. Logically, sales would be higher because they are more expensive than any other Honda or Kawasaki bikes. The recently concluded Ducati week is just a testimonial to this kind of passion that motorcycle lovers have over the Ducati. If you missed the event you have missed seeing thousands of bikes packed in one small place.
The Ducati bike is not just called the Ferrari of bikes because of its looks and its price but most importantly because of its performance. The Ducati Panigale is packed with 148 horse power which by itself is already a good buy and a reason for you to buy. Some even say that this Panigale is the most complete sports bike of the century.
Sales keep rising year after year with a steady 1 percent from the previous year’s sales figure.

What do you expect from the Ferrari of Motorcycles?

Unprecedented Performance

Getting a Honda, Kawasaki, Yamaha or a BMW is already a treat for riders especially if you ride a 1000cc superbike. Yamaha has recently launch the new 2015 YZF-R1 & R1M releasing a very powerful bike that sports which has 200 hp to run the engine. The latest version of the R1 had surprise bike lovers. But with the fan base of the Ducati, it still has that unprecedented performance that most bikers love. The revving of the engine is simply ecstatic and music to the ears. The feel of the grip on your hands especially when you squeeze that juice, you would know that this Italian bike is not just made to be kept in the garage for collectors but can respond to the demands of the adrenaline lover.
All the parts combined working together as one mean machine make the Ducati a luxury bike to ride. The response of the bike in stops and accelerations, the banking experience of the bike in sharp curves and the overall ride experience make you want to collect more Ducatis for your garage.

Unparalleled Style

The Ducati bike rarely goes out of style. Bikes made by Ducati in 1999 like the 99 Ducati 748 Biposto still looks good in the eye today. Although several years have passed, the style of a Ducati never grows too old. You still can see young riders with older Ducati bikes out there.
Styling is definitely engineered for the Ducati to look good beyond its age. Mostly, the style of an Italian bike goes beyond its age like the classic Vespa look. It never grows old. The Vespa has that one great look to it which can be loved by all ages in all generations. A sports bike like the Ducati also never grows old in terms of style.
The style of the bike also is not just built for style but built to perform. The Ducati engineers and designers have made sure that aerodynamically the bike will create more push rather than drag. The environmental compliance of Petrol emission is also technologically engineered. The buttons that you push to make the computer respond to either make your drive a cruise or a race is stylishly designed for the rider’s comfortable ride. The seat cowl and the distance of feel of the body on the bike is built for the rider to get that Ducati riding experience.
The style of the bike is more than meets the eye.

Great Riding Experience

Finally, every Ducati promises a great riding experience. There are different bikes that respond to the needs of the riders. There are superbikes for the racers. There are hypermotard bikes for the rough terrain. There are monster bikes which are great for cross riding experience. There are Ducati bikes for touring and of course not to mention the Streetfighter and the Diavel bike that are on top of the luxury line. There are also tons of accessories that complement to the riding experience.
Overall, having a Ducati may be a hole in the pocket, but the ride is always worth it.
