Английская Википедия:Ducati 899
Шаблон:Infobox Motorcycle The Ducati 899 Panigale is a Шаблон:Convert sport bike from Ducati, released in 2013 to replace the 848.[1] The motorcycle is named after the small manufacturing town of Borgo Panigale. It has a Шаблон:Convert version of the engine in the previously released 1199 Panigale. Claimed dry weight is Шаблон:Convert.[2] The 899 has a conventional two-sided swingarm, unlike the 1199 which has a single-sided swingarm.[3] The unconventional decision to use a two-sided swingarm on a superbike from Ducati was made because of the substantial upgrades added to the bike including electronically adjustable anti-lock brakes, traction control, electronic braking control, and a quickshifter. This is the first medium-sized Ducati that uses the Superquadro engine.
The 899 surprised observers by topping sales charts for all motorcycles in the UK for December 2013, at a price five times higher than the number two seller, the Honda CBF125 — a situation compared by The Telegraph to the Ferrari California outselling the Ford Focus.[4]
For 2016, Ducati revised the 899, including enlarging the engine to Шаблон:Convert (the 959 Panigale).[5]
