Pros and Cons in comparison
Pros and Cons in comparison
Ducati Streetfighter V4 S 2020

The bike has taken much of its sporty roots from the Panigale. This will delight friends of the streetfighter. Electronics and engine power are superior, the chassis is radically fast and the machine rules in stopwatch duels. However, it has rough edges. The big surprise: you sit well on the noble beast and can actually ride it on extended tours!
Electronics package at the absolute top level
High-revving and brutally powerful engine
Very agile handling
Surprisingly comfortable seating position even for tall riders
Powerful brakes
Sporty, high-quality chassis
Great aerodynamics - stable wind conditions even in the saddle
Looks to die for
For fear in the saddle, revs are necessary - no steam hammer from the basement
In city traffic and everyday life somewhat rough engine response
Tippy handling at low speeds
Strongly changing engine noise - depending on speed and flap position.
