    Visited local Ducati dealer today to look at the V2 Panigale as I've not seen one yet, talking to the salesman he mentioned that its soon going to be available in white.
    I know most riders will go for the red but hey I like to be different. 3886392x600x0_FFFFFF_E.jpg

    Yep the red wheels really set it off, it looks beautiful!!

    If I was to get one though.....I'd never forgive myself if I didn't get it in red!!

    It's a bit like Ferraris......be sacrilege to get one in any other colour than red!

    And Lamborghinis.....have to black....or green.....or orange.....or, shit they look good in any colour!!!;)

    The good thing about it being white is that you can spray it any colour you like - yellow ? or mauve ? :D

    (the dude that bought my white GSX-S sprayed it black).

    I like yellow bikes. Had a yellow & black fireblade before. That white V2 looks amazing with the red wheels. I would pick this over the everyday red in a heartbeat.

    The original v4's had about a billion recalls and the QS position sensor seems to be a bit shit... The problem with buying a first gen model from Ducati is that they are usually letting the public find all the faults for them for a year or so... Updated versions the following year or 2 seem to have all the gremlins sorted out and generally better bikes....
