Cycleworld had a writer do a piece about how the panigale engine is made here It's a good read with lots of pictures. Some good engineering porn.

Look at the size of those pistons, really puts the bore into prospective!   [drool]

Thanks, that was a great article, I really enjoyed seeing the different steps to the assembly

I looks like the cylinders are sleeved and mount into the case without a separate piece holding them?

But none of them create a merry atmosphere of insouciance and bonhomie quite like a revving motorcycle.

Just think how easily they can make a smaller motor with that design. that assembly on the right is the only one changed.

They're basically conventional wet liners, the head holds them in.

Other than the case splits *along* the liners, which I've never seen before.

Yeah that's what i was getting at.  All the old ducatis use liners inside a jug.  That split bit is pretty amazing.
