Limited editions pay homage to Desmosedici GP bikes and Bautista’s Panigale V4R, and Bulega’s Supersport Panigale V2. The Bagnaia and Bautista editions will feature a vibrant yellow livery seen at the Misano MotoGP and WSBK rounds.

To maintain exclusivity, each replica will be limited in production. The Bagnaia edition (263 units), Bautista edition (219), Bulega V2 – (111), Martín edition – (189), and Bezzecchi edition – (72). All will have a single-seat configuration, a billet aluminum steering plate with a unique production number, a dedicated key, and an animated TFT dash.

Enthusiasts can showcase their bike’s exclusivity with a certificate of authenticity and a specialized bike cover. For those who prefer to preserve the masterpiece, the bike will be delivered in a wooden crate with bespoke graphics.

Despite being based on the £27,995 S model, the Panigale V4s will stand out with a nine-disc dry clutch, homologated Akrapovič silencer, adjustable billet aluminum Rizoma foot pegs, and a GPS module for lap times on the dash. Exhaust modifications alone reduce the weight by 2kg. Carbon fiber features in the rear exhaust manifolds, alternator cover, rear mudguard, front brake ducts, and the titanium swingarm cover.

The Bulega V2 sees improvements with Akrapovič racing silencers, offering a 2.5% power increase, a 2% torque boost, and an impressive 5kg weight reduction.
