Wheeler-Dealer Wednesday Spotlight: #33 Panera Bread Ducati Panigale V4 R Superbike

Usually, we run these bike-spec features as “Two-Wheel Tuesday Spotlights,” but since this particular motorcycle is currently for sale, we decided to call this one a “Wheeler-Dealer Wednesday Spotlight” instead. Privateer Superbike rider Kyle Wyman and his KWR crew raced and developed this Ducati Panigale V4 R over the past three years of MotoAmerica competition, and it was an experience of a lifetime for Wyman and his team as they introduced the MotoAmerica Superbike Series and its fans to Ducati’s flagship production racebike. So, as Kyle moves on to another as-yet-to-be-announced brand of motorcycle for his 2022 MotoAmerica campaign, here’s an in-depth look at a bike that you can actually purchase from Kyle for your very own.
