DescriptionThe whole story▼
The Ducati Panigale 1199 is one of the most celebrated superbikes of its era — an uncompromising machine that deserves accessories built to the same standard. LighTech's 300 Series aluminium handlebar end weights (part number KTM318) are precisely that: CNC-machined from high-grade aluminium, finished with anodised colour rings bearing the screen-printed LighTech logo, and engineered to damp the vibrations that erode feel and fatigue the rider on spirited road or track use.
Key Features
- CNC-machined from high-grade aluminium for an exact, rattle-free fit and a premium factory aesthetic
- Anodised colour rings available in red or black — each carrying the LighTech logo in screen-print for a clean, brand-consistent finish
- Effective vibration damping at the bar ends reduces fatigue and sharpens steering feel, especially at higher revs and on longer runs
- Sold as a pair — a direct, bolt-on replacement requiring no modification
- Colour rings (part number RKTM300) are also available separately, allowing you to mix, replace or update the finish at any time
- Precise fitment engineered specifically for the Panigale 1199 platform (2012–2017), not a generic universal fit
Design, Finish and Heritage
LighTech has built its reputation across MotoGP pit lanes and WorldSBK paddocks on the strength of parts that look as considered as they perform. The 300 Series handlebar end weights carry that heritage into the Panigale 1199 cockpit. The machined aluminium body is clean and purposeful, while the anodised ring — available in racing red or stealth black — lifts the bar-end detail from functional necessity to a deliberate design statement. The screen-printed LighTech logo on the ring is a subtle but unmistakable mark of quality for anyone who knows the brand.
The red ring pairs naturally with red wheel rim stickers or tank decals for a coherent racing aesthetic, while the black ring sits flush with the Panigale's monochromatic factory look. Either way, the result is a cockpit that reads as intentional rather than assembled from generic catalogue parts.
Performance and Ride Quality
Beyond aesthetics, these weights do real work. Handlebar vibration is an unavoidable byproduct of a high-revving L-twin, and over time it degrades both comfort and precision at the bar. The KTM318 weights are calibrated to address this at the source, damping unwanted oscillation to keep feedback clean and steering inputs accurate. The improvement is most noticeable at sustained motorway speeds and during track sessions where concentration demands a calm, vibration-free bar.
Fitment and Compatibility
These handlebar end weights are engineered specifically for the following models:
- Ducati Panigale 1199 (2012–2017)
- Ducati Panigale 1199 S (2012–2017)
- Ducati Panigale 1199 R (2012–2017)
If you wish to change colour at a later date, replacement colour rings are available separately under part number RKTM300 and are fully compatible with the KTM318 body.
