Our favorite Bologne-based bike brand is knee-deep in their Ducati World Première 2024, a multi-episodial series that drops a new bike (or new kind of bike) every handful of weeks – and we have a good guess as to what’s about to roll out for the next handful of episodes.
For reference, here’s what we were given last year:
…and here’s what we have so far:
Is there any way to know for sure which bikes Ducati will premiere for their upcoming Episodes 3-6?
The short answer is no – but a bit of sleuthing can’t hurt, and you’d be surprised at the insight that’s come our way in the past few months via various and sundry filings.
Pitting these findings against the hints from Ducati’s teaser vid, here’s what we think could be aired out for the remainder of Ducati’s 2024 World Première:
A view of Ducati’s DesertX. Media sourced from Ducati.
Ducati’s got a DesertX Rally that was seen making a few test runs in Europe earlier this month. Considering October 3rd shows off a desert terrain and off-roading trails, we think a DesertX Rally is a decent bet for Episode 3, set for October 3rd.
Similar filings have also pulled up two Panigale V4 MotoGP Champion Replicas that have been type-approved for the new model year in the United States. Ducati won everything in MotoGP last year with Bautista and Bagnaia behind the bars, so it makes sense that the image of professional circuitry in Ducati’s video would be the stage for an homage to Ducati’s 2022 triple MotoGP crown.
If we’re right, you’ll see these bikes debuted for October 19th; if not, there’s always a chance we’ll be tossed a Monster V4…Dennis Chung from Motorcycle.com thinks that this Episode could also carry a Streetfighter V2.
What do you think?
This filing was fun to find and a tad unexpected, but no less valid. We have the filings to prove a single-cylinder-powered Hypermotard will be out within the next handful of months, so there’s a good chance Ducati have a Hypermotard ready to roll out for Episode 5, on November 2nd.
The final episode is slotted to run on the same day that EICMA starts this year; the video shows the Ducati museum with a series of heritage bikes in their proper place of honor. Couple this with the fact that we have filings showing a Panigale V4 SP2 30° Anniversario 916 on the way, and we really can’t think of a bike better suited to pay homage.
