Ducati Panigale V4 2023

Ducati Panigale V4 2023

The conclusion is very easy for me. Ducati has made an "already almost perfect motorbike" even better without changing anything in a negative way. Although riding on the road with this radical fairing probably causes a stir and one or two riders find it uncomfortable, they obviously feel more comfortable with it on the race track. You get a motorbike "out of the box" that resembles a Superbike World Championship bike more than ever. I also believe that the V4 2018 owner is quite capable of improving his lap times with the 2020 version. My tip: if you take care to enlarge the tank or make it more grippy, you could go over the centre even more with your hull.

Clever electronics

Noticeable upgrade to last year's model

More accessible than ever before

Tank is too small from an ergonomic point of view

straight-line driving from 250km/h in the wet

A worthy new edition from Honda. Even if it doesn't quite shine as brightly in the standard version as it does with the Öhlins Gold in the "SP" version, the Fireblade is a much better bike in 2017. The electronics package is good, the handling great and the seating position very good. The bike looks like a unified whole and will make Honda fans happy.

Good brakes

Low weight and nimble handling

Engine has plenty of power from the rev range

High build quality

No shift assistant

sluggish and not very precise throttle grip

chassis "nice" on the racetrack but not good enough to precisely set the scene for the great handling

disadvantages at peak performance on long straights
