Next Bike Sdn Bhd recently opened its latest Ducati store in Pavilion KL, where it also showed off the Ducati 1199 Superleggera. The limited-edition superbike, which is on display at the shopping mall outlet till January 23, can be yours for RM488,888 (nett selling price).
The 1199 Superleggera is billed as the lightest superbike ever created at 155 kg. With over 200 hp and 134 Nm from its Superquadro L-twin engine, the featherweight 1199 has the highest power-to-weight ratio of any production motorcycle in history. To keep weight down, materials such as titanium, magnesium and carbon fibre were used. Only 500 units will be made, each with its individual number inscribed on the top clamp.
Half a million bucks for a bike sounds mad, and you’d think that Ducati bosses will be rubbing their hands with glee when receiving the cheques, but it’s not a straightforward process, even if you have the cash and want to buy one. We understand that Ducati will be “very selective when it comes to determining worthy owners” and all prospects will have to go through a thorough short-listing process.
Here’s something (slightly) more achievable, the Ducati 1199 Panigale.
Looking to sell your car? Sell it with Carro.
Holy molly. People are complaining about Toyota being overpriced. This is taking it to another level.
Bcoz it is made in Italy maaa…and branded some more…just compare kenzo to gucci…which one more expensive…but not to worry you can buy a cheap one at factory outlet….
Closed to cbr250 weight
I’m gonna start eating kangkung from today onwards and start saving.. You guys will see me on the road with this monster, 20 years later..
too late, your mum should start saving 20 years before you were born…hehe
Its faster than most supercars right? So when comparing prices, the Ducati seems like a bargain :) You cant get a new Ferrari for half a million Ringgit. Though you’d need big balls to ride them fast.
A Nissan GT-R, tuned to 850hp, vs a BMW S1000RR in stock condition:

for half a mil, its pointless to get a bike. If you are a bike fanatic, there are many other choices that are just as fast, and cost less than half as much. That is used ferrari 430/GTR territory, you can use those every day without getting worried about things little like rain.
The price is killing me…
Low RV.
rm500k, better add another 200k get F430 or rm500k for R35 2012
This wat i call overprice!
it is over taxed.. get it right
Hrrmm.. Rich folks.. May I recommend you buy a personal light plane or helicopter over this.
personal light plane can be cheaper than this.
pengsan when see the price!
@_@!
Errr….. saya nak beli rumah jelah dari ducati nih…. Balance tu buat beli vios
At least house can pay with 20++ years loan. AFAIK bikes maximum loan only 3 years..
Ini lah melayu. Kerja gaji ciput, beli velfire pinjam 90% selama 9 taun. Pinjam downpayment sikit, tapi hutang lama2. X mampu beli cash atau pinjam kejap xya beli kete. Pakai je kapcai
you live only once
so buy anything you want b4 you died eventhough you need loan
i can use that cash to buy the 2015 302ci Mustang….
Seriously its absurb to pay 488,888 for a two cylinders superbike nvrmind its 203hp..I rather buy the BMW S1000RR HP4 195hp 4 cylinders 1000cc bike than this
“Half a million bucks for a bike sounds mad…”
It doesn’t sound mad; IT IS MAD!!
nice car but my fat ass cant fit in the back seat
car?
enough power to carry rosmah
They had to cut the bikes’ weight in order for that to happen.
WTF… if compared with std 1199 Panigale it was very small diff weigh <9kg (164kg Vs 155kg) , hp <5+hp (195hp Vs 200hp) & tork <2Nm (132Nm Vs 134Nm) but the price very huge diff around RM279k (Rm210k Vs Rm489k)..
rm490k can get one Merc E400 or BMW 528i M Sport or 2 Audi A4 or 2 Audi A6 Hybrid or other cars you can buy.. but this is only for collector who love collecting a limited edition superbike as a showing display or musuem after bought
satu taun gaji RM15juta maa…merc…bmw…ferrari sudah ale maa…sikalan mau beli ini moto la plak…he
My US friends told me, it is so ridiculous to have 2 wheeler more expensive than 4 wheeler. Toyota Vios is more expensive than Yamaha R1 there.
Malaysia is really a ridiculous country in terms of vehicle.
In the UK, the insurance for a liter bike with a 21 year driver costs around 4000 Pounds a year (for a 43 year old driver it’s around 230 Pounds).
As this insurance system doesn’t exist in Malaysia: How do you want to prevent a 18 year old in driving a second hand liter bike that is faster than a GT-R with 850hp?
lololol ,
a superbike with the price of a brand new porsche
This beast will smoke all of your Protons, Toyotas!! hahaha…… By the way if you guys wanna lepak on the road! should buy this man! Ada Gaya la!
Just becareful that out of nowhere, protons, toyotas cut into your ‘lepak’ lane.. tergolek tak apa.. RIP highly.
Nearly half a million..
When it comes to rain, u still have to wait under the bridge…in style lah ( they claimed) :)
i found many commenters just plain stupid to compare a car with bike. Ducati never target common people like us to sell this bike. so STFU and enjoy this monster.
Yeah this bike is like the Ferrari FXX on how they’ve very ‘selective’ to determine their worthy owners. Ferrari stated that in order to buy a FXX, one of the requirement is you must have own at least one Ferrari before proceeding to buy an FXX.
Damnnn that price…kena start makan kangkung mulai sekarang!
This beast is only for rich and famous guys only. Not for ordinary people even they are millionair. Ducati desmodidici cost nearly RM 600k in bolehland. Only 2 unit in Malaysia.
is this the most expensive bike here?
its not for everage vios driver..
I will dubbed this as Ducati 1199 SuperlaGila price.
Super duper rich toys.
jgn persoal
this is to protect proton
o wait-
