The Ducati Panigale is a family of sport motorcycles manufactured by Ducati[1] since 2011. The Panigale is named after the small manufacturing town of Borgo Panigale.[2] All motorcycles of this series use monocoque frame (the engine is a stressed member, replacing Ducati's conventional trellis frame).[3]
