“Offered for sale is an exceptionally rare Ducati Panigale V4 Bautista 2023 World Champion Replica, number 002 of just 219 produced worldwide.
This model forms part of Ducati’s limited-production ‘2023 Racing & World Champion Replica’ series, created to celebrate Ducati’s championship-winning 2023 season across MotoGP and WorldSBK.
The Bautista edition specifically commemorates two-time World Superbike Champion Álvaro Bautista and his title-winning Aruba.it Ducati Panigale V4 R race machine.
This example is presented in near-delivery condition with approximately 10 miles recorded, retaining its numbered billet top yoke and replica race livery. The bike was first registered in the United Kingdom on 29th June 2024.
Serial number 002 places this example among the earliest produced units of the entire limited run.
Historical Context
The Bautista Replica was introduced by Ducati in December 2023 as part of a five-model commemorative series celebrating Ducati’s dominant 2023 racing season. These models replicate the race liveries of Ducati riders who achieved major championship success that year. The Bautista version reflects the livery of the Aruba.it Ducati WorldSBK machine ridden by Bautista during the 2023 season.
Production numbers were deliberately limited, with 219 units built, referencing Bautista’s race number 19.
Other bikes in the commemorative series include replicas honouring:
- Francesco Bagnaia
- Jorge Martín
- Marco Bezzecchi
- Nicolò Bulega
