It&#8217;s something that can only be described as otherworldly, supernatural, maybe even devilishly desirable. Even writing about it right now, I can hear its yowl playing in my ears as I clicked through the gears at full chat.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>You can&#8217;t see it, but the hairs on the back of my neck are standing up.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Yet, more important to the group from Borgo Panigale than one lone aging rider&#8217;s recollection is <a href=\"https:\/\/www.rideapart.com\/news\/764588\/marc-marquez-breaks-motogp-sprint-race-win-record\/\" data-inline-widget=\"internal-links\" data-type-id=\"0\" data-params=\"%7B%22article_edition_id%22%3A%22764588%22%2C%22section%22%3A%221%22%2C%22alias%22%3A%22marc-marquez-breaks-motogp-sprint-race-win-record%22%7D\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Marc Marquez&#8217;s absolutely dominant<\/a> show of force during the 2025 MotoGP season. The rider not only wiped the field with just about everyone, apart from his brother, but also wowed with a masterclass in comebacks, and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.rideapart.com\/news\/779882\/ducati-ceo-claudio-domenicali-surprised-marc-marquez-championship-win-motogp\/\" data-inline-widget=\"internal-links\" data-type-id=\"0\" data-params=\"%7B%22article_edition_id%22%3A%22779882%22%2C%22section%22%3A%221%22%2C%22alias%22%3A%22ducati-ceo-claudio-domenicali-surprised-marc-marquez-championship-win-motogp%22%7D\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">even stunned Ducati&#8217;s own CEO<\/a>. Naturally, the team and company want to celebrate the win, along with celebrating Marquez&#8217;s dominance on the grid.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>What better way to do that than a limited edition, special series production of Marquez&#8217;s championship-winning Panigale V4S? No, it&#8217;s not a full-on racebike, but it&#8217;s as close as you can get without spending a cool half a million for the real deal.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>        <img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/16x9-tr.png\" alt=\"2026 Ducati Panigale V4 M\u00e1rquez 2025 World Champion Replica\" width=\"16\" height=\"9\" loading=\"lazy\"\/><\/p>\n<p>2026 Ducati Panigale V4 M\u00e1rquez 2025 World Champion Replica<\/p>\n<p>Photo by: Ducati<\/p>\n<p>        <img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/16x9-tr.png\" alt=\"2026 Ducati Panigale V4 M\u00e1rquez 2025 World Champion Replica\" width=\"16\" height=\"9\" loading=\"lazy\"\/><\/p>\n<p>2026 Ducati Panigale V4 M\u00e1rquez 2025 World Champion Replica<\/p>\n<p>Photo by: Ducati<\/p>\n<p>        <img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/16x9-tr.png\" alt=\"2026 Ducati Panigale V4 M\u00e1rquez 2025 World Champion Replica\" width=\"16\" height=\"9\" loading=\"lazy\"\/><\/p>\n<p>2026 Ducati Panigale V4 M\u00e1rquez 2025 World Champion Replica<\/p>\n<p>Photo by: Ducati<\/p>\n<p>Photos by: Ducati<\/p>\n<p>The name of the bike is the Ducati Panigale V4 M\u00e1rquez 2025 World Champion Replica, and the most prominent change across the superbike is its livery, which is almost a carbon copy of Marquez&#8217;s Grand Prix livery. However, while the base of the motorcycle is the Panigale V4S, there are far more changes occurring both under and above the skin of the superbike.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>According to Ducati, the motorcycle&#8217;s\u00a0triple clamp features bespoke machining, with the model&#8217;s name and unit number\u2014of the 293 production motorcycles to be made\u2014the latter of which is also etched onto the ignition key cover. Likewise, each motorcycle comes with a certificate of authenticity, its own motorcycle cover, and will be &#8220;delivered in a special personalized box designed to match the livery.&#8221; Each of the motorcycles will also get an original signature by Marquez on the tank cover.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>That, however, isn&#8217;t all.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>        <img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/16x9-tr.png\" alt=\"Marc Marquez 9th World Championship Ducati\" width=\"16\" height=\"9\" loading=\"lazy\"\/><\/p>\n<p>Marc Marquez 9th World Championship Ducati<\/p>\n<p>Photo by: Ducati<\/p>\n<p>If you thought Ducati was about to sell you a standard Marc Marquez Panigale V4S, think again. The company made a host of performance modifications to the 293 motorcycles, including an\u00a0Akrapovi\u010d exhaust and new engine calibration for a total of 218 horsepower, corner sidepods that are based around the aero the team introduced to MotoGP, a set of five-spoke carbon fiber wheels, and Brembo&#8217;s Front Brake Pro+ front braking system, which has been &#8220;homologated for road use&#8221; and &#8220;increases braking power and performance consistency.&#8221; There&#8217;s also a\u00a0dry clutch, adjustable billet aluminium footpegs, and a GPS module.<\/p>\n<p>Ducati will also add a &#8220;billet aluminium racing fuel tank cap, brake caliper shrouds, an open carbon fiber clutch cover, and a license plate holder removal kit.&#8221; All of it is finished with an Alcantara seat, racing windscreen, and an on-dash animation.<\/p>\n<p>Best of all, however, is the chance to meet up with Marquez sometime next year. Customers will be able to choose to meet at a race weekend or at <a href=\"https:\/\/www.rideapart.com\/news\/774875\/world-ducati-week-2026-details-information\/\" data-inline-widget=\"internal-links\" data-type-id=\"0\" data-params=\"%7B%22article_edition_id%22%3A%22774875%22%2C%22section%22%3A%221%22%2C%22alias%22%3A%22world-ducati-week-2026-details-information%22%7D\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">World Ducati Week<\/a> next July, which is pretty rad. No word on whether you&#8217;d get to race Marquez on the bike, but even with the new 850cc bikes getting their first tests, Marc would probably whoop you.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>As for price, Ducati wants a cool $93,000 for the motorcycle, which ain&#8217;t chump change, but in line with other special, limited edition Ducatis of the past. Plus, you get the whole Marc Marquez meet-and-greet thing, so that alone might be worth it to some. As for right now, I&#8217;m just gonna sit here and drool and wonder how far Marquez would be in front of me with him on this and me on his race-winning championship bike.
