Carl Fogarty and model kit maker Pocher launch Ducati Panigale V2 Superquadro Final Edition

Four-time World Superbike champion Carl Fogarty has teamed up with Pocher on the release of a new 1:4-scale Ducati Panigale V2 Superquadro Final Edition model kit, which is accompanied by a Ducati Superquadro V2 Engine Model Kit.

Fogarty remains Ducati’s most successful WorldSBK rider ever, and his expertise with regards to the Italian brand’s race-spec superbike is unmatched by many.

On the other hand, Pocher is a premium large-scale die-cast model kit company that’s also known for their Porsche, Pagani and Ferrari model designs.

The release of the new Ducati Panigale V2 Superquadro Final Edition, along with the separate engine kit, is rather special in numerous ways.

The first of those is to do with actually ordering the product, as the 99th person who orders the Superquadro Final Edition will be invited to an exclusive Pocher event where they can meet Fogarty. They can also have their model kit signed by the superbike legend. This will take place at The Bike Shed in London. 

Then there’s the build process, which is estimated to take around 30 hours to complete due to its Skill Level 6 rating, according to Pocher. 

The new model kit will cost customers £789,99, and it will be available to buy in September. As well as taking around 30 hours to construct, the Final Edition model kit includes more than 700 pieces. 

When Ducati launched the production version of the Panigale V2 Superquadro Final Edition, it was limited to just 555 units worldwide, making Pocher’s model kit recreation somewhat of a rare opportunity to own a different version of the real bike.

Meanwhile, the Superquadro engine kit will be available for £159,99, from October. This particular model kit features 122 parts plus the necessary screws. 

Speaking about the collaboration with Pocher, Fogarty had this to say:

“Ducati has played a huge part in my life and career, so it’s great to be working with Pocher on the launch of these new models. The detail in the Panigale build is incredible and gives fans the chance to get properly hands-on with the engineering behind such an iconic motorcycle. I’m really looking forward to meeting the 99th person to order it. It should be a very special moment for a fellow Ducati fan!”

The launch of the 1:4-scale Ducati Superquadro V2 Engine Kit is designed to let modellers recreate the bike’s Desmodromic twin-cylinder engine, which produced 155 hp at 10,750rpm and 76.7 Ib-ft of torque at 9,000rpm.
