2027Ducati Superleggera V4 Centenario

23 fields on record

The Ducati Superleggera V4 Centenario is an ultra-exclusive, track-focused superbike built to mark Ducati's 100th anniversary, based on the latest Panigale V4 R platform. Its 1,103cc 90-degree V4 'Twin Pulse' engine uses desmodromic valve actuation to produce a claimed 228 hp (224.9 hp) at 14,750 rpm and 119 Nm at 10,750 rpm, through a 6-speed gearbox with quickshifter and chain final drive. A semi-perimeter carbon-fibre frame, fully carbon Öhlins NPX25/30 fork and TTX36 monoshock, carbon-ceramic Brembo brakes, and a comprehensive electronics suite - five ride modes, cornering ABS, launch control, electronically adjustable suspension, an inertial measurement unit, and a factory Akrapovic exhaust - bring curb weight down to a claimed 173 kg. Built in Italy in a strictly limited run of 500 units, it is a solo-seat-only, single-minded track weapon aimed at collectors and serious trackday riders.

Best for: A collector's trophy and dedicated trackday/race weapon built to celebrate Ducati's centenary, not a road-going sport bike for daily use.
Built for: The most extreme expression of the Panigale V4 R platform, built in tiny numbers with carbon-ceramic brakes, full carbon Öhlins suspension, and a factory Akrapovic exhaust.
Not ideal for: Not for new riders, not for passengers (none permitted), and not for anyone wanting a comfortable road bike.

Scores are derived from the spec sheet using the same model across every bike, so they compare like for like.

Units

At 855mm, a rider of 68.9" with a 31" (estimated) inseam will reach the ground with tip-toe one foot on the 2027 Ducati Superleggera V4 Centenario, with a cramped knee angle of around 75 degrees and a forward-leaning riding position.

Assumes about 30mm of suspension sag once seated. This is an approximation from category-typical geometry, not a measurement of this bike or of you - sit on one before you buy.
