New Ducati Panigale V4 | First Ride

Fifty grand for this ….

If you have an open chequebook, a part time super job with an open track day ticket, plus a true actual decent skill set then yup go for it, but for the average its just beyond in every sense, other than for the flex, its all rather academic, although I am really glad they are still making these coz f@ck electric!!!

Let's all nitpick a bike we can't ever afford

RC46 x 2007 RC212V

what happened to chads hair ?

916 Look 😂😂😂😂 they wish. Lessons learned from the 999 😢

It looks better. Although I don't think I will ever like the winglets, no matter what shape.
All of this is just entertainment because it's the equivalent in the car world to a Koenigsegg or Bugatti or Aston Martin hyper vehicle that only a tiny few can afford (or utilize even 50% of), have any pavement to stretch it on, can store it without theft, and can cover insurance.
I think some motorcycle companies have crossed over the line, finally, of "using technology to create problems" instead of solve them.
The reason? Bureaucratic regulations have created the "space" within which manufacturers are forced to operate and be profitable: aka....increase technological costs, without significantly changing the product in any fundamental way.
I'm still waiting for the flying car or motorcycle that doesn't need a track or roads, runs on hydrogen, nuclear power, and anti-gravity tech. Seems that would solve a heap of problems instead of create them.

The detailing and machining on the swingarm are exquisite.

I don't like the direction modern bikes are going, too many electronics and rider aids, eventually bikes will be able to ride themselves, which will be boring, I want to control the bike myself, I don't want some computer second guessing everything I do..

Why are all the english riders pensioners?

I'm not sure about the looks, Its just block paint red, where's the gold, where's the flair the old bikes had. If you want unusable power but great looks, just get an MV.

No potentiometer!! What are Ducati thinking ? 😱

Seriously I have to trade in my 2024 v4s with 600 miles on it for a 2025. WTF

Ducati is having a BMW moment. Not pretty

Wow

FOUR seconds???? Holy shit.......

4 seconds faster! Function over form. Beautiful

58'000 AUD dollars lol Ducatis having a laugh 🤭

Really nice technical breakdown of the new upgrades. 44Teeth had some lovely footage but were a bit light on the nitty gritty stuff.

44 did 44.44

So, let me get this straight: you need your own telemetrician in the box in order to be able to extract all the juice on the bike? Or is it to demonstrate how good the bike with respect to the previous one (i.e., the differences are not that notable)? I think that this was a slopy stunt by a marketing boss in Ducati... This bike should be OBVIOUSLY AND UNDENIABLY faster than the previous one EVEN WITHOUT your own telemetrician (and that's why they charge you 30,000 GBPs for it, by the way)!

I reckon it looks ugly 🤷‍♂️

The fact that the entire video is dedicated to "data" and "Electronics" makes it sooo boring. It's clearly a phenomenal machince but realistically .5% of the biking world will ever have the talent toactually reap any benefit at all.

HOW does it look like a 916?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?. I'm sure he's just regurgitating the PR with that comment. It looks literally nothing like a 916.

AMAZING bike I'm sure but well and truly beyond my level (and most others)

Thanks for review, looks epic. My only worry is whilst it might make me quicker on track, I’d be so devastated if I slid off it, I’d probably ride slower than on an older, much cheaper bike. 1st world problems eh?! 😊

Lost its beauty

Marc Marquez approved 😂❤❤
Ducati done it right 👍

Is a race track chads happy place? Chris oftens says how he loves the dodgy twisties with narly shit growing through it and he shines riding those kind of roads but where is chad happiest?

Nice ! I really like the new swingarm- the cut outs look good, the whole appearance is fantastic. I seem to remember Honda had a similar cut out section swingarm on their CBR’s …. Must work !

Chad gets an office chair to sit on, Neeves had to make to with a step on the fire escape

I so badly wanted to see average reviews on the bike. But everyone bloody one has nothing but glowing reviews..... anyone want to buy my 2019 v4s its for sale now...

The front is strange

Gteat holiday. With the engineers rider aids is it fun or a disconnected experience? Like a modern sports car.

That’s an interesting question! Will there be more spacecraft wings added?

Adam 'This is not a holiday' Child

So Chris Eades from 44T did a 1.44.44, nearly a second faster. Quite surprising seeing as he’s not really a racer/ex-racer.

You ride like an old timer racer. Body above the steering handle instead of body besides the tank. 😊

ducati said fck the new design and improve youre skills 😂

First thought upon release, yuk- horrible-!ugly- it’ll never sell on looks alone.
Month later, wow!!!
It’s soooo grown on me…. on the tech front- Ducati have just wiped the floor with all.

For 30k I would hope so lol

Just got a new s1k m package and all that… seen this bike in the dealer cheaper it caught my eye but the bmw I like the look better…. I think I just have to get one to experience the differences…

Ducati are destroying wsbk and moto GB,, they are on their peek era

I can see only reviews V4S. It is unfortunately too expensive for me. Can you estimate how much worse will be standard version? I am comparing with new Honda CBR1000RR-SP - it costs less with Ohlins suspensions. I am intermediate so i suppose that new Ducati electronic can help me more than Ohlins on Honda. What do you think?

A base RSV4 is $19k while a base Panigale V4 is $26k. Where does the extra $7k come from? Is it really 40% better than the RSV4?

So this, Fireblade SP or GYTR for a track bike?

man that front end looks like the new Mclaren W1!!

I'm sorry...but if the title for this video is 'New Ducati Panigale V4'...why in the F*CK did you spend the whole day riding and talking about the new V4S?!?!?! I would at least assume that a professional bike review channel like this, could at least get the right title for the bike they're reviewing...sheesh!!

I trail brake !,would i trust the terminator to do it for me ,,only the sands of time can tell.

Function over form and yet the 2022 V4 was the fastest superbike available.

You will not sell one of these to me despite all the glazing

So you guys are attributing all the performance increase to the swing arm being gone when the bike literally trail breaks for you among other things.
