The good folks over at LEGO Technic are at it again. Following the release of the miniature Ducati Panigale V4, LEGO Technic returns with a look at a life-size, 1:1 scale version. Yes, you are reading that right. The iconic toy company has created a life-size, fully functioning iteration of the LEGO Ducati Panigale V4. The bike was stripped of all its original fairings and panels.
It was then rebuilt using over 15,000 LEGO bricks. The fully functional design means you can, technically, ride it. The bike still features the 217 HP and 82 lb-ft. of torque 998 cc Desmosedici Stradale R engine. The LEGO motorcycle was put together by LEGO Technic artist Riccardo Zangelmi. He spent over 400 hours, placing the bricks by hand. In case you were wondering, all of the bricks are individual and are not glued down.
Take a closer look at the design in the video below and head over to LEGO to find out more. In the meantime, keep it locked with The Culture Curators for more unique and intricate designs coming very soon.
