The Ducati Elite II by MotoPuro
Maybe I’m just arriving late to the party, but holy guacamole this Ducati 1199 Panigale S retro-moderned build by MotoPuro is pretty rad…
The Ducati Elite II was built by MotoPuro, a Ducati dealership located in the netherlands (website).
Most everything is custom- exhaust, rear sets, subframe (the Panigale is “frameless” as they say, after all), wheels…
- Tribute to Ducati 200 Elite , bj 1959
- Based on Ducati 1199 Panigale S
- Custom made Terellis rear-subframe
- Custom made rear seat
- Custom made alu parts DPNS
- Custom made Kineo spoke wheels
- Custom made QD Exhaust
- Paint jop MW-Design
It’s pretty outrageous, but I can’t help but love it.
I personally think more sportbikes should be styled like this from the factory. I mean, why not?
Even if you don’t appreciate it’s looks, you have to appreciate the amount of work that went into it. Kudos, guys.
