Ducati Panigale V4: a new focus on the evolution of the sports bike [VIDEO]

In the new study proposed by Ducati on YouTube, several aspects are highlighted that technically and technologically characterize the renewed one Ducati Panigale V4.

The 2021 model

A second episode of a series of tutorials connected to the model with the intervention of Alessandro Valia, Ducati Official Tester and Carlo Ricci Maccarini, Ducati Superbike Development Team Leader.
The new focus, also considering sports Panigale V4 S, still highlights the updated aspects of the model, initially keeping the 2020 model in mind. The sporty and aerodynamic appearance is made distinctive by the aerodynamic package made up of elements such as plexiglas, fairing, fairings and side extractors and in particular by the aerodynamic appendages. Considering these and the hull layout, an increased vertical load of is highlighted 30 kg a 270 km/h.
In the evolution, compliance with regulations stands out Euro 5, taking into account the interventions on the exhaust line and the calibration of the drive unit with the same power and torque levels. Other aspects relating to the electronic part are also mentioned.
The frame is a "Front Frame" with a magnesium front subframe and an aluminum seat post, so at suspension level on the Panigale V4 there is a 43 mm Showa Big Piston Fork with Sachs steering damper and an adjustable Sachs shock absorber in the rear area . While on the Panigale V4 S there are Öhlins solutions such as an Öhlins NIX-30 fork, Öhlins steering damper with event-based system and Öhlins TTX36 rear shock absorber, as well as management linked to the second generation of the Öhlins Smart EC 2.0 system with new OBTi interface (Objective Based Tuning Interface). The electronic overview is varied with a latest generation package that also includes a latest generation, more predictive Ducati Traction Control, a DTC EVO 3, as well as the use of a six-axis inertial platform. The braking system is also powerful with new self-bleeding brake and clutch master cylinders derived from the elements present on the exclusive Superleggera V4.
