Accessories for the Ducati 1199 Panigale R

The Ducati 1199 Panigale R is a sports bike suited to twisty roads and track days. That riding style puts the emphasis on wind protection, your position over the tank and the way your hands meet the controls. Useful additions are not all about riding, though: equipment for looking after the bike also matters when track preparation becomes part of your routine.

What riders usually fit to the Ducati 1199 Panigale R

• Screens: Help direct airflow away from you when tucked over the tank. On the Panigale R, the screen needs to make sense for your riding position, whether you spend more time sitting higher on the road or crouching down along a circuit straight.
• Crash protection: Helps limit damage to the areas it covers in a fall. For a Panigale R used on both road and track, protection deserves a place in the preparation alongside the parts that affect your experience at the controls.
• Levers: Your contact with the brake and clutch is particularly important during sports riding. On a winding road or through a track session, a comfortable finger position helps you operate the controls without placing your hand at an awkward angle.
• Fasteners: Useful for replacing fixings or completing accessory installations on a faired sports bike. If preparing your Panigale R for track days involves removing parts to work on it, suitable fasteners have a practical role beyond their appearance.
• Stands: Worth considering when garage maintenance and between-session preparation are regular parts of owning your Panigale R. Their contribution comes away from the riding itself, providing support for jobs that require the bike to be held in position.

For road use, start with wind protection and comfort at the controls. Regular track riding also brings protective parts and equipment for working on the bike further up the list.
