Panigale V4 / V4S- race grade adjustable rearsets
Kappa KV55
Italian performance bike parts specialist Bonamici has introduced a new racing accessory line for the Ducati Panigale V4 / V4S – precision machined adjustable rearsets that " redefine the concept of sport riding. They are more than a rearset, more than just a replacement component, they are a genuine upgrade that are a statement of Ducati identity." Key Features include nine-position adjustability, full OEM component compatibility( brake pump and heat shields), support for standard and reverse shifting, oversized dual-bearing linkages for smoother, more stable gear changes, micrometric brake lever adjustment for height and preload and reinforced shift selector for enhanced responsiveness. The OEM brake return spring is re-installable and there are two selectable shift modes- firm and fast or smooth and progressive. There are sliding adjustable toe pegs, short, high-grip footpegs with interchangeable threaded caps and racing-inspired curved heel plates for better comfort and no boot interference. Like all Bonamici components, these rearset designs require professional installation and set-up, and are compatible with Ducati Performance, Akrapovic and Termignoni exhausts. An integrated brake pump bracket enhances structural rigidity and performance under extreme conditions. They are available in glossy black anodised finish with signature red bushing and are compatible with V4 / V4S models from October 2024.

Italian brand Kappa has expanded its line of flip-up helmets with the KV55. It has dual type-approval and offers a full range of technical features including a 180 ° chin guard opening system. The shell is made of high-strength thermoplastic material and comes in five single-colour finishes( matt black, titanium grey, glossy white, glossy burgundy and matt electric blue). The deliberately minimalist design favours aerodynamic lines and a configuration that guarantees a balance between protection and comfort, enhanced by the chin guard rotation system that rebalances the weight of the helmet when used as a jet helmet. The helmet has a transparent main visor, designed for Pinlock 70 DKS002 lenses( not included), an internal sun visor and a classic but effective ventilation system, consisting of two front air intakes( one on the upper shell, one on the chin guard) and two rear extractors for internal airflow. It has a fully removable and washable lining, micrometric closure and a wind deflector completes the equipment. The helmet weighs 1,770 g(± 50 g) and is available in a wide range of sizes from 54( XS) to 63( XXL).
