2025 Ducati Streetfighter V2S: S FOR SPORT.

Introducing the new 2025 Ducati Streetfighter V2S…

The sportier version, complete with Öhlins suspension, lithium battery, single-seat configuration, Ducati Power Launch and Pit Limiter.

The Ultimate V2 Fighter Formula

Ducati has applied the Fight Formula to the lightest Panigale of all time to create the lightest ever Streetfighter: a naked as exciting on the road as it is high-performance on track. The formula is simple: an 890 cc engine, Panigale V2 chassis, 392 lb weight, a high, wide handlebar and no fairings to act as a filter between the rider and the riding experience.

With the arrival of the new Ducati Panigale V2, it was unthinkable not to create a new Streetfighter. Since the first V4, Ducati has applied the “Fight Formula” to every new Panigale, creating exciting naked bikes on the road and high-performance ones on the circuit. In the case of the new Streetfighter V2, the formula is very simple: 890 cc engine, Panigale V2 chassis, 175 kg in weight, wide and high handlebars, and no fairing to act as a filter between the rider and the elements.

The new V2 is the lightest Streetfighter ever created by Ducati (-18 kg compared to the previous model) thanks to a chassis based on a monocoque frame and the new 90° V2 engine, modern and efficient. A bike that is therefore nimble and at the same time stable and rigorous at high speeds, as fast as the previous one on the kerbs of a track and even more enjoyable and fun on the road and in everyday use.

More intuitive to ride, lively and enjoyable thanks to the lightness and torque of the V2, capable of giving the rider a great feeling from the first contact, the new Streetfighter is as faithful as ever to the “spirito molesto” – troublemaker spirit – of the original.

The design of the new V2 retrieves the typical stylistic features of the Streetfighter family, eliminating the fairing and thus highlighting the mechanical base of the supersport bike from which it derives. The masses are thus concentrated on the front, transmitting an image of attitude and dynamism and highlighting the compact size of the new V2 engine. The “look” of the front, sharp and menacing, traced by the Full-LED headlights and the DRL, makes up an immediately recognizable profile.

As on the Panigale V2, the rear is completely faired, creating a monolithic effect between the seat and the tail that recalls that of the Desmosedici MotoGP. The full-LED rear light is divided into two parts, and the exhaust ends with silencers positioned under the seat. Both hark back to a Ducati tradition that has its roots in the first Superbikes, and underline the sporty soul of the bike.

The design of the new six-spoke light alloy wheels with a “Y” profile, arranged into three groups, represents a modern reinterpretation of the iconic look of the three Marchesini spokes. The black of the wheels highlights the full Ducati Red livery.

Panigale soul. Streetfighter insolence.
The new V2 is the lightest Streetfighter ever created by Ducati (18kg lighter than the previous version) thanks to a chassis based on the monocoque frame and the new 90° V2 engine. A bike that is agile but also stable and precise at high speeds, as fast as the previous model on track, but decidedly more entertaining on the road and during everyday use.

More intuitive to ride, lively and entertaining thanks to the lightness and torque of the V2 and offering the rider exceptional feeling right from first contact, the new Streetfighter is faithful like never before to the original “provocative spirit”.

Sophisticated chassis
The frame of the new Streetfighter V2 is an efficient and lightweight monocoque that exploits the engine as a load-bearing element. The double-sided swingarm takes design inspiration from the Hollow Symmetrical Swingarm of the Panigale V4 and offers the same benefits in terms of corner exit stability and feeling when riding on track, allowing the rider to make full use of today’s slick tires.

The suspension is fully adjustable, to allow the rider to customise the setup of the new Ducati sports bike. The Streetfighter V2 is equipped with a Marzocchi fork and Kayaba shock, while the V2 S versions offer the rider an Öhlins fork and shock, as well as a lithium-ion battery that reduces weight.

To maintain stability through the turns and at high speed without fairings, the Streetfighter V2 mounts a swingarm that is 30 mm longer than that of the Panigale V2 and the standard Sachs steering damper.

The new cast wheels mount Pirelli Diablo Rosso IV tires, in sizes 120/70 and 190/55, which combine handling and footprint, highlighting the sports attitude of the two models. The Brembo front braking system comprises two 320 mm discs and M50 monobloc calipers, ensuring power on track and modulation on the road.

Benchmark electronics
The Streetfighter V2 is equipped with the six-axis IMU inertial platform, which supports a comprehensive and efficient electronics package to heighten both safety on the road and performance on track. The electronics package includes sports Cornering ABS with slide-by-brake function, Ducati Traction Control, Ducati Wheelie Control, Engine Brake Control and the new Ducati Quick Shift 2.0, the same system used on the Panigale V4, as standard on both versions. The S versions are also equipped with Ducati Power Launch and Pit Limiter as standard.

The rider can instantly modify bike behaviour by switching between the 4 Riding Modes (Race, Sport, Road and Wet). These offer pre-configured levels of intervention for all the controls and engine response, levels that can be modified by the user. In this way, with the simple pressing of a button, the Streetfighter V2 can be adapted to suit the rider and the various riding situations.

The dashboard is a new 5” TFT with user interface based on Infomode, conceptually derived from that of the new Panigale V4. The three views – Road, Road Pro and Track – are designed to allow the rider to focus on riding, highlighting the most relevant information in each context with a logical and comprehensive display.
The rider interface has been rationalised, integrating the information as far as possible to reduce the density and improve readability. The rev counter, for example, also serves as the gear shift indicator, turning green when it is appropriate to upshift and red when overspeed is reached.

Unmistakably Streetfighter

The design of the new Streetfighter V2 retains the typical Streetfighter family style traits, doing away with the fairings to highlight the mechanical base of the supersport from which it derives. Mass is therefore concentrated at the front, for a bold, dynamic look that highlights the compactness of the new V2 engine.

Badass Gaze

Sharp and dynamic, the front “gaze” is immediately recognisable, shaped by the full LED light cluster and DRL.

Tank and Seat and Tail section

The tank, fully faired seat/tail section and light alloy wheels are the same as those on the Panigale V2. A choice that highlights the sports spirit of the Streetfighter V2, while retaining its references to the Ducati racing tradition.

 

 

Ducati presents the new Panigale V2 and Streetfighter V2

  • The lightest Panigale and Streetfighter ever, they combine benchmark performance on the track and fun on the road
  • The new Ducati V2 engine with variable valve timing (IVT) guarantees torque-rich delivery at all revs and sportbike power at high revs

With the newest episode of the 2025 World Premiere, a new era has begun for Ducati’s twin-cylinder motorcycles, unveiling the new Panigale and Streetfighter V2, the first bikes in the range to feature the new Ducati V2.

The new Panigale V2 and the new Streetfighter V2 are the lightest ever.

2025 Ducati Streetfighter V2S Totalmotorcycle.com Features and Benefits

The new Streetfighter V2, like the Panigale V2 from which it derives, marks a new era for Ducati and its medium-displacement naked bike. It is a completely new bike, which retains only the name of the previous one to underline its aggressive spirit, its road destination and the 90° V-twin engine.

The new Streetfighter V2 – the lightest ever produced by Ducati – is a lightweight and modern sports bike that, thanks to specific technical solutions, is also suitable for everyday use, so as not to place limits on those who want to enjoy it while riding on mountain passes and on the track, as well as in everyday riding.

To do this, the new Streetfighter V2 is born on a completely new technical base, designed around the new 890 cc 90° V2 engine. A bike designed to provide maximum pleasure in sportbike riding, focusing on lightness, easy handling, a powerful and usable engine, sporty ergonomics but suitable for road riding and high comfort even in casual use. All this while confirming the values of style, sportiness and high-level technical equipment.

Design

The Streetfighter V2 maintains the philosophy of the Streetfighter design: a Panigale stripped of its fairings, with masses concentrated on the front that convey a sporty image, almost athletic. The front is clean and essential, with the design dominated by the Full-LED headlight and the DRL, which makes up a profile immediately recognizable as the typically menacing Streetfighter look.

The mechanical base, shared with the Panigale V2, defines a more horizontal dynamic and is less loaded on the front end, highlighting the compact size of the new V2 that the Streetfighter leaves very clearly, creating an aggressive and at the same time elegant bike like all Ducati’s.

The rear, completely faired in continuity with the front like on the Panigale V2, creates a monolithic effect between the seat and the tail. The full-LED rear light is divided into two parts according to Ducati tradition and creates the unmistakable double red arch optical signature. Front and rear direction indicators are LED.

The exhaust, which ends with silencers positioned under the seat and harks back to the Panigale’s racing tradition, recalls Superbike competitions and the 1299 Final Edition and underlines the bike’s sporty soul.

The design of the new six-spoke light alloy wheels with a “Y” profile, arranged into three groups, represents a modern reinterpretation of the iconic look of the three Marchesini spokes. The black of the wheels underlines the full Ducati Red livery.

Ergonomics

The ergonomic triangle and the contact surfaces with the rider have been designed to combine support, comfort and versatility to make the new Streetfighter V2 enjoyable in casual riding, effective and rewarding on mountain passes and between the kerbs, while always maintaining a reduced physical effort.

The rider can control the new Streetfighter V2 through a variable-section aluminium handlebar mounted on the steering head via risers. The adjustable brake and clutch levers operate radial pumps with separate fluid tanks. For road use, you can rely on a 33° steering angle.

The footpegs, with forged attachments and aluminium heel guards, have a shape designed to improve grip. The passenger footpegs are mounted on the rear subframe and can be easily removed to transform the Streetfighter V2 into a single-seater.

The rider seat at 838 mm from the ground allows you to easily put your feet down, the height of the handlebars is designed to define a position that offers the right control both in sportbike riding and in urban environments, and the position of the footpegs allows you to push with your body weight without tiring your knees. The passenger seat is well spaced from the footpegs and is adequately padded.

The fuel tank has an ergonomic shape equal to that of the Panigale V2, to support the rider in braking and when “hanging off” in the middle of the curve. The surfaces in contact with the rider, completely free of metal parts, facilitate the anchoring of the knees in such a way as to unload the arms when braking, and reduce the physical effort required in maintaining an out-of-the-saddle position when cornering.

Engine

The new Streetfighter V2 is powered by the new 90° V2 with 890 cc of displacement, the lightest twincylinder (54.5 kg) ever produced by Ducati.

Equipped with the IVT variable valve timing system on the hollow-stem intake valves, the new V2 represents a new chapter in the history of Ducati twin-cylinder engines, becoming the benchmark not only for lightness, but also for compactness, fuel consumption and low emissions (Euro5+ homologation) to which are added a wide range of use and a fully usable maximum power level.

The new engine delivers a maximum power of 120 hp at 10,750 rpm, with an extension that sees the limiter intervene at 11,500 rpm. The maximum torque value is 93.3 Nm at 8,250 rpm with a generous power delivery even at low revs (more than 70% of the maximum torque already available at 3,000 rpm, more than 80% always available between 4,000 rpm and 11,000 rpm) which guarantees a prompt response at every throttle opening, offering gusto and usability both in everyday use and on the track.

By adopting the Termignoni racing exhaust, with titanium silencer sleeves and carbon end caps, the power increases by 6 hp, the torque by 5 Nm and the weight is reduced by 4.5 kg*. For the new Streetfighter V2, homologated Termignoni silencers are also available, always with titanium sleeves and carbon end caps, which combine a sporty design with a weight reduction of 0.5 kg.

The six-speed transmission is equipped with the second-generation Ducati Quick Shift (DQS) 2.0, which debuted on the new Panigale V4 and which offers a more direct gear shift feel, with a shorter, repeatable and less “rubbery” travel that is particularly appreciated when riding on the track. The clutch is an oil bath slipper clutch with progressive hydraulic control and low load on the lever. The final drive ratio (15/42) has been developed to ensure the best engine responsiveness when reopening the throttle on open roads and engine extension when used on the track.

For younger riders with an A2 license, a version with power limited to 35 kW is available. In this version, maximum power is 43.5 hp at 6,250 rpm, and maximum torque is 5 kgm at 5,750 rpm.

Chassis

The chassis of the new Streetfighter V2 confirms the use of the monocoque structure in the dual function of frame and airbox, which uses the V2 engine as a structural element. A compact and rational solution that allows the new Streetfighter V2 in the “S” version to reach a weight with all liquids but without fuel, of 175 kg, or 18 kg less than the previous model.

The 1,493 mm wheelbase and steering geometry with 24.1° rake and 103 mm trail make the Streetfighter V2 easy to handle, light and quick to lean, while maintaining stability when cornering and at speed, thanks also to the swingarm that is 30 mm longer than the Panigale V2 from which it derives and the Sachs steering damper fitted as standard.

Monocoque Frame

The monocoque structure is cast in aluminium, weighs 4 kg and uses the new V2 engine, to which it is fixed directly to the vertical cylinder head, as a structural element. In addition to fulfilling the classic function of a frame, the monocoque also acts as an air-box (it houses the air filter, throttle bodies and fuel circuit complete with injectors) using the bottom of the 15-litre steel tank as a closing cover.

The rear subframe, also cast in aluminium, is fixed to the monocoque at the top and directly to the engine at the bottom.

Suspension

The new twin-cylinder Ducati Streetfighter is available in two versions, which differ in the suspension equipment, V2 and V2 S.

The Streetfighter V2 is equipped with a fully adjustable Marzocchi fork, with 43 mm stanchion tubes and forged feet. At the rear, the Kayaba shock absorber is also fully adjustable. The Streetfighter V2 S is equipped with Öhlins suspension, fully adjustable, with NIX30 fork with 43 mm diameter stanchions and TiN treatment on the latter to improve smoothness. Both versions feature a Sachs steering damper, to improve precision and stability when riding at high speed. On both versions, the shock absorber has a separate reservoir and is mounted laterally on a progressive link fixed directly to the new double-sided swingarm, offering easy access to the spring preload adjustments.

The new double-sided swingarm, fixed directly to the engine, is made of low pressure casting aluminium alloy which allows for a reduction in the average thickness of the structure. The external design recalls that of the Ducati Hollow Symmetrical Swingarm of the new Panigale V4, guaranteeing the same benefits in riding in terms of mechanical grip, stability when exiting corners, precision in closing the line at the centre of the curve and maintaining the trajectory while riding.

The chassis equipment can be completed by mounting an adjustable Öhlins steering damper, available as an accessory, to replace the steering damper fitted as standard.

Wheels and tyres

Both versions of the new Streetfighter V2 are equipped with 3.50 x 17” light alloy wheels at the front and 5.50 X 17” at the rear, 1 kg lighter than the previous ones, which mount Pirelli Diablo Rosso IV tyres in the sizes 120/70 and 190/55. The choice of the 190/55 size of the rear tyre combines handling and footprint, offering maximum support even at the lean angles typical of circuit riding. For circuit use only, it is possible to mount Pirelli Diablo Superbike slicks with a 180/60 or 190/60 rear, the same size used in the Supersport World Championship.

Brakes

The new Streetfighter V2 is equipped with a Brembo system that ensures high braking efficiency accompanied by precision and sensitivity at the brake lever, with excellent linearity between applied force and braking response.

The front calipers are M50 monobloc with four 30 mm pistons, featuring a compact design that allows for a weight saving of 140 grams per caliper compared to the previous M4.32. The monobloc construction offers rigidity and resistance to deformation in the most extreme braking, which in turn translates into improved precision and sensitivity at the brake lever. The front system is controlled by a Brembo PR16/21 radial pump, which combines a high level of feeling with braking power that is a benchmark for the segment. The double front disc is 320 mm, while the rear disc is 245mm.

Electronics

The new Streetfighter V2 is equipped with a latest-generation electronics package, with controls and functions derived from those of the Panigale V4. The functions are managed via a 5” TFT 16:9 dashboard and a “petal” joystick on completely new controls.

To emphasize the cleanliness and elegance of the new dashboard, the physical warning lights have been removed from the external mask and moved inside the display with the sole exception of the red LED over-revving indicator. The rev counter and the engaged gear indicator flash with a pulsating effect and turn green to indicate the moment of gear change, and red to signal the intervention of the limiter. During the running-in phase, the rev counter turns orange when the recommended number of revs is exceeded.

The screen features three display modes (Info Modes) called Road, Road Pro and Track (all with automatic switching between night or day backlighting) which differ in the type of information shown and the relative graphic presentation. Using the “joystick” on the handlebars, it is possible to switch directly between one Info Mode and another while riding.

The Road display is designed to provide essential information when riding on the road. The rev counter bar, circular in shape, occupies the entire right part of the display, with the gear engaged in the centre. On the left side are the speed indication and the selected Riding Mode. The on-board computer data are in the four corners of the display: fuel level, time, coolant temperature and air temperature.

The Road Pro variant increases the density of the information displayed, moving the rev counter to the centre to leave space on the left for the percentage levels of power and torque delivered. The parameters of the selected Riding Mode are visible on the right.

The Track Info Mode features a straight rev counter bar, positioned along the entire length of the upper part of the display. The gear indicator increases in size compared to the Road view, while the speed indicator decreases. On the left side is the information of the Lap Timer Pro, if installed (GPS signal, lap time, split time, lap number and current session, signal of improvement of split time and lap time in absolute terms or with reference to the session, as on the Panigale V4). On the right side, the display shows the Riding Mode parameters, allowing you to vary the level of intervention of each individual control while riding, and showing the activation of each in real time.

The dashboard also allows for Bluetooth pairing with a smartphone and a communication system on the helmet to play music, answer calls and listen to the instructions of the Turn-by-turn navigator accessory, if installed.

Latest-generation electronic controls

The new Streetfighter V2 is equipped with modern and sophisticated electronics, based on the use of the 6-axis inertial platform, capable of instantly detecting the roll, yaw and pitch angles of the bike.

The Streetfighter V2 electronics package consists of:
• ABS Cornering
• Ducati Traction Control (DTC)
• Ducati Wheelie Control (DWC)
• Ducati Quick Shift (DQS) 2.0
• Engine Brake Control (EBC)

The operating parameters of each control are associated by default with the four Riding Modes (Race, Sport, Road, Wet). Riders are given the possibility of customizing their riding styles and restoring the default parameters set by Ducati.

ABS Cornering

The ABS system of the Streetfighter V2 includes the “cornering” function that extends the ABS intervention even when the bike is leaning and derives from the intervention logics and control types of the Panigale V4. The ABS Cornering can be set to three levels to fully accommodate the needs of all
riders, both on the track and on the road, even in the most critical low-grip situations.

While level 3 is suitable for the road or for low-grip conditions, ensuring safe and stable braking in all conditions and always keeping rear wheel lift under control during sharper decelerations, levels 2 and 1, prioritising braking power, are more oriented towards sportbike riding on high-grip surfaces and on the track.

Level 2 is recommended for use on the track by amateur riders; the system manages both the front and rear braking systems and keeps the cornering function active in the absence of lift-up control, allowing for sportier braking. By selecting level 2, you can take advantage of the “slide by brake” function which allows you to slide when entering a curve for spectacular and even more effective sportbike riding in complete safety.

Level 1, which can be selected even if it is not associated by default with any of the Riding Modes, is recommended for expert track riders, and guarantees a racing intervention of the ABS system that acts on the front wheel only. Both the “cornering” function and the intervention on rear wheel lift are disabled to generate maximum performance.

Ducati Traction Control (DTC)

The Ducati Traction Control strategy used on the new Streetfighter V2 derives from the Ducati Desmosedici GP18 and is already used on the Panigale V4 R and V4 R SBK. In addition to interfacing with the 6-axis inertial platform and adapting the intervention and slippage to the lean angle of the bike, the software significantly improves power management when exiting corners thanks to the new “predictive” control strategy. By acting not only on the instantaneous value of rear spin, but also on its variation, it intercepts grip losses more quickly and reduces slippage peaks, thus ensuring faster and more regular intervention. All this translates into greater vehicle stability when exiting corners, even in non-optimal grip conditions, greater acceleration and improved performance both on a single lap and on long runs.

In addition to managing ignition advance and injection, DTC also intervenes on the throttle body valves when rapid control intervention is not required, allowing optimal combustion parameters to be maintained and achieving smoother engine response and intervention. The control can be set to eight different levels (six designed for riding in dry conditions and two in wet conditions), allowing riders to adapt the control strategy to their riding style, context and grip conditions.

Ducati Wheelie Control (DWC)

The Streetfighter V2 is equipped with the latest version of Ducati Wheelie Control (DWC). This system uses information from the IMU 6D to control wheelies and allow maximum acceleration performance to be achieved easily and safely. The DWC EVO detects the presence and extent of wheelies more accurately and intervenes to control them with a greater level of precision, thus responding even more punctually to the rider’s requests.

Ducati Quick Shift (DQS) 2.0

The new Streetfighter V2 uses the second-generation DQS introduced on the new Panigale V4. Compared to a traditional quickshifter, the gear lever is no longer equipped with a Hall-effect microswitch, because the shift strategy is based solely on the gear sensor positioned on the gear drum. The benefit for the rider is a more direct shift feeling, with a reduced, repeatable and less “rubbery” travel that is particularly appreciated when riding on the track.

Engine Brake Control (EBC)

EBC (Engine Brake Control) has been developed to help riders optimise the stability of the bike in extreme corner entry conditions by balancing the forces to which the rear tyre is subjected under heavy engine braking. The Streetfighter V2’s EBC, optimised based on the lean angle, monitors the position of the throttle valves, the selected gear and the deceleration of the new V2’s crankshaft during more aggressive braking, and precisely adjusts the throttle opening to balance the torque forces applied to the tyre.

Riding Modes

The Riding Modes allow you to choose between four different pre-set riding styles, to offer a Streetfighter V2 behaviour that is perfectly adaptable to the rider, the type of track and the environmental conditions. Each Riding Mode is associated with a different control parameter setting; selecting the different Riding Modes therefore gives you the possibility of instantly varying the character of the engine and the intervention of the electronic controls.

Race Riding Mode

The Race RM is dedicated to track riding, with high-grip asphalt. By selecting Race, the rider can count on 120 hp, with a direct Ride by Wire response to throttle opening. The Race mode provides a default lowintrusive electronics setting, without however decreasing the level of safety, with ABS at level 2 without lift-up control and the activation of the “slide by brake” function, the controlled slide during braking that allows the bike to be safely sideways when entering a curve.

Sport Riding Mode

By selecting the Sport RM, the rider can count on 120 hp of power delivery with a sporty Ride by Wire response to throttle opening. The electronic controls are set in such a way as to perfectly support the rider when riding on dry roads. Rear wheel lift control during braking is engaged and the ABS Cornering function is set to offer maximum performance when cornering.

Road Riding Mode

The Road RM is recommended for use on low-grip surfaces. The RM provides the rider with 120 hp of power delivery with a progressive Ride-by-wire response, as with the Sport RM, when opening the throttle. The default level of the electronic controls is set to offer maximum safety by ensuring the best grip and stability.

Wet Riding Mode

The Wet RM is dedicated to slippery surfaces, for example in the rain. With the Low Power Mode, associated by default, the Ride-by-wire response is particularly softened, and there is an even more consistent intervention of the DTC, DWC, ABS and EBC engine brake systems. The maximum power is limited to 95 hp/70 kW.

Obviously, the rider can customize the Riding Mode parameters and subsequently restore the default parameters set by Ducati, just as it is possible to enable level 1 of the ABS (recommended for more expert riders on the track) which intervenes only on the front wheel, without activating the cornering function and lift-up control, to offer maximum braking performance.

New V2 engine

The Panigale V2 and the Streetfighter V2 mount the new 90° V2 engine with variable timing for the intake valves, 890 cc, and 120 hp. Its weight of just 120 lb (-20.7 lb compared to the Superquadro it replaces) makes it the lightest twin-cylinder ever produced by Ducati, and its torque curve, with 70% of the maximum value already available at 3,000 rpm, ensures that riding is always exciting, even on the road. When using the new V2’s on the track, riders can install a racing exhaust, which increases the maximum power to 126 hp, with a weight reduction of 10 lb.

For the Panigale and Streetfighter V2, there are 3 Power Modes available: High, Medium, and Low, at 95 hp. The press kit has all the details on the new engine.

Benchmark chassis

The frame of the new V2 is a light and efficient monocoque, which uses the engine as a stressed element. The double-sided swingarm is inspired in design by the Hollow Symmetrical Swingarm of the Panigale V4 and offers the same benefits in terms of stability when exiting corners and feeling when riding on the track, where it allows the rider to make the most of modern, slick tires.

The suspensions are fully adjustable to allow the rider to personalize the set-up of the new Ducati models. The Panigale V2 and Streetfighter V2 are equipped with Marzocchi forks and Kayaba shock absorbers, while the V2 S versions offer their rider Öhlins forks and shock absorbers, as well as a lithium-ion battery that reduces weight.

To maintain stability when cornering and at speed without a fairing, the Streetfighter V2 features a swingarm 30 mm longer than the Panigale V2 and a Sachs steering damper as standard.

The new cast wheels are fitted with Pirelli Diablo Rosso IV tires in 120/70 and 190/55 sizes, which combine handling and contact patch, enhancing the two models’ sporty qualities. The Brembo front braking system consists of two 320 mm discs and M50 monobloc calipers, offering power for track use and modulation for road use.

Benchmark electronics

The Panigale V2 and Streetfighter V2 are equipped with a six-axis IMU inertial platform, thus supporting a complete and effective electronics package to increase safety in road use and performance on the track. The electronics package includes sports ABS Cornering with slide-by-brake functionality, Ducati Traction Control, Ducati Wheelie Control, Engine Brake Control, and the new Ducati Quick Shift 2.0, the same system used on the Panigale V4, standard on both versions. The S versions also have Ducati Power Launch and Pit Limiter as standard.

The rider can instantly change the bike’s behavior by choosing between four Riding Modes (Race, Sport, Road, Wet) that offer pre-set intervention levels, which can be modified by the user for all the controls and engine response.

The dashboard is a new 5″ TFT with a user interface based on Infomode, conceptually derived from the new Panigale V4. The three views—Road, Road Pro, and Track—allow the rider to concentrate on riding and highlight the most relevant information for each mode.

The rider interface has been streamlined, integrating the information as much as possible to reduce its density and improve readability. The rev counter, for example, also acts as a gear shift indicator, lighting up green at the ideal RPM to shift up and red when over-revving is reached.

Accessories

Various accessories are available for the new Panigale and Streetfighter V2 to increase their performance on the track or make them more versatile for road use. A dedicated track package is also available for the Panigale, consisting of a racing exhaust and lower fairing, Öhlins steering damper, adjustable footpegs with carbon heel guards and lowered handlebars, clutch and generator covers, and caps for mirror and license plate removal. Each accessory can be purchased individually.

The Lap Timer Pro self-timing system, using the Track Infomode, displays lap times, split times, and improvements in the rider’s performance in real time.
