Ok so if you think you can't afford a Ducati Panigale V4, don't worry because you can! There's a Lego Ducati Panigale V4 Lego kit – oh yes, so who needs the real thing!

If that's not exciting enough for you already – how about this? Lego Certified Builder or LCB - (yes it's a real title :) - Riccardo Zangelmi has built a life-sized Ducati Panigale V4 made of Lego Technics elements! The big reveal was of course in Modena, Italy, in front of Claudio Domenicali Ducati CEO, Andrea Dovizioso MotoGP Ducati Corse team MotoGP rider and Lego Italia general manager Paolo Lazzarin.

The amazing Lego motorcycle was constructed from 15,000 Lego Technics pieces and took 400 hours to build and they did it without computer modelling - showing supreme confidence in their abilities! Oh yes and there's no glue either - it could be disassembled and reassembled - if anyone would ever want to disassemble it!

The Lego Panigale V4 weighs in at 180 kg, which is a mere 8 kg more than the actual motorcycle – they are practically the same thing!

So what do you think? How would it be to have a motorcycle you could disassemble and reassemble as a different bike the next week? The possibilities are endless! We are going to suggest tin man gets one, he needs a change!
