DescriptionThe whole story▼
Protect the rear frame of your Ducati Panigale V4, V4 S or V4 R while giving it the kind of purposeful, race-derived finish that feels completely at home on this machine. The LighTech CARD0880 rear frame cover is laid up from genuine autoclave-cured carbon fibre, delivering a precise, rattle-free fit that slots into place without modification and stays there lap after lap or kilometre after kilometre.
Key Features
- Genuine carbon fibre construction — autoclave-cured for exceptional dimensional accuracy, structural rigidity and a surface finish that sets it apart from cheaper pressed alternatives.
- Available in gloss or matte finish — gloss for a sharp, high-contrast racing aesthetic; matte for a more understated, stealth-sport look that still reads as premium.
- Shields the rear frame rails against scratches, road grime and minor impacts without adding meaningful weight to the package.
- Direct, no-modification fitment — uses existing mounting points on the Panigale V4 platform for a clean, factory-quality installation.
- Care-friendly surface — pH-neutral cleaners are all it takes to keep the carbon looking showroom-fresh across years of use.
Build Quality and Finish
LighTech manufactures the CARD0880 using an autoclave process rather than hand lay-up, which means consistent resin distribution, no voids and a surface that needs no secondary finishing work. The weave pattern is symmetrical and properly aligned — the detail that separates a genuine carbon part from a carbon-look substitute. Whether you choose the gloss variant for that classic racing sheen or the matte finish for a more contemporary, circuit-ready appearance, the quality of the base laminate underneath is identical.
On the Road and on Track
The Panigale V4 platform is used hard, whether that means spirited road riding or full track days, and the rear frame area takes its share of road debris, heat and the occasional scuff from kit. Replacing the original cover with a LighTech carbon unit means that wear lands on a material designed to absorb it — and one that, unlike painted plastic, does not chip or fade in the same way. The result is a motorcycle that continues to look as considered at the end of a season as it did at the start.
