🔧 The Panigale of Wasili - Passion for Perfection
There are motorcycles - and there are Ducati's. And then you have a class up there: The Ducati Panigale 1199, a brutal beauty with a racing heart, born in Bologna and raised on the circuits of the world. But even such an impressive machine can always be just that little bit better, more personal, more unique for a true enthusiast. Just that Wasili, passionate motorcyclist and panigale driver pur sang.
In this blog we take you into his story. About his choices, his upgrades - and especially his love for technology, style and performance. No thirteen-in-a-dozen adjustments, but thoughtful upgrades that give the Panigale a unique look and more functionality.
💥 You have to feel a panigale - and hear
It was soon clear to Wasili: if you drive a Ducati Panigale, then you want everything to experience. Not only the performance or the looks - but also the technology. And that started with something that makes a lot of Ducatisti warm: the open clutch.
Anyone who is familiar with the dry coupling of Ducati knows what we are talking about: the typical "rattling" sound that sounds like music to some. The Panigale 1199 is equipped with a wet coupling as standard, but that did not stop Wasili from giving that classic Ducati vibe a modern, stylish twist.
His choice fell on the CNC Racing Open coupling - Not only because of the technology, but especially also the design. The red milled aluminum lid with visible coupling plates ensures a real eye -catcher on the right side of the block. The rotating plates are visible while driving and idle rotation, and make every ride a visual and auditory experience.
"A ducati has to hear you breathe and see life. With the open clutch that picture is just right." - Wasili
The assembly was Plug & Play - no adjustments to the Carter, not a compromise in reliability. Simply precision work of Italian soil, mounted with an eye for detail.
🏁 Precision operation: Evotech Performance Brake and coupling hens
With the heart of his Panigale now completely in sight, it was time for the next step. What is at least as important as power and style? Control. You want to feel what the engine is doing, and you want to be able to control it effortlessly under all circumstances.
A logical upgrade: the levers.
His choice fell on the Evotech Performance Long brake and coupling herest set - of course in folding version. Not only because of the design, but especially because of the high -quality finish and the confidence that Evotech exudes. Made from one piece of Billet aluminum, fully cnc-filled and finished in matt black-these levers are just as stylish and functional.
What makes this set so good?
-
Folding design: If your motorcycle falls over, the levers will clap up instead of breaking down.
-
Six -time adjustable: The distance to the steering wheel is adjustable, so ideal for both trackdays and relaxed tours.
-
Perfect fit: Evotech makes everything model-specific, so the levers seamlessly connect to the original Brembo brake and clutch cylinders of the Panigale 1199.
The assembly? Simple, yet extra attention was paid. Wasili took the time to adjust and lubricate the levers so that they are flexible and do not scratch on the housing of the cylinders.
"Once you have driven with these levers, you never want anything else." - Wasili
🔧 A project that continues to evolve
As every true enthusiast knows: a motor project is never really "finished". And Wasili is not ready yet. In the future he thinks about:
-
A Carbon Hugger from Ilmberger Carbon
-
CNC Racing Reservoirs
-
And maybe-who knows-a subtle ECU tune to coordinate the whole even better
What is striking is that Wasili consciously opts for quality. No cheapo aliexpress accessories or universal junk - but only the best brands that match the appearance and DNA of his Panigale.
And you see that. The engine radiates passion, precision and strength - just like its owner.
✨ Why this inspires
Wasili’s Panigale is not a showbike for a living room. It is one rider's bike - built to be driven, perfected to enjoy. His adjustments are not only visually attractive, but actually add something to the driving experience.
It is a project that shows how you take ducati to a higher level with attention, good products and a little too much.
