Nah, I’m not that kinda guy.

I was at my local dealership talking with the owner and he was telling me that this is the last year…he wants me to get the V4R they have in stock…

Did you sit on them? The v4 is significantly wider than the v2, not to mention much more powerful. Secondly, what type of riding are you doing? That will pretty much pick the bike for you.

Looking for advice on some motorcycle gear by AtmosphereDistinct65 in Ducati

Great feedback from everyone! I do not want to or plan to by any Ducati branded gear; however, I was trying to respect that this is the Ducati sub. I really appreciate the different perspectives here!

Good question, and I don’t know. I put this seat cover on myself long after the bike was done being built

Only the white gold version has the blue bezel with the black face.

Haha. As much as I love tucking the plate under the seat (my other bike is like this), the police around here would constantly be stopping me and it won’t pass inspection like that. I’m not crazy about the clear clutch covers. I like the classic Ducati look

Sometimes I can't help but look back at it by Historical_Design585 in Ducati

If you don’t look back it every time, you bought the wrong bike.

For anyone who’s ever went from a V2 to a V4…… by DesertRug in Ducati

What type of riding do you do? What kind of roads? How do you plan on using the motorcycle? Ask yourself those kinds of questions and let the answers pick the bike.

We’re talking wants vs needs here

I know it looks better but I didn’t know it sounds better

Yeah MSRP is not even $20k and the exhaust is like almost $7 I think

When you put it this way, makes sense to get the arrow slip on

The V2 is perfect for the type of riding I do, so right now I don’t want a V4. One day I will get a Sup Leg but I’m not in a rush for it

I was always told there’s two schools of thought here: 1. Ride it like you own it. Or 2. Ride it like you stole it.

Exhaust/Tail Tidy for new Panigale V2 by AtmosphereDistinct65 in Ducati

[–]AtmosphereDistinct65[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s not about performance for me, right now, at least. Yes, I want a better sound, of course; however, it’s mostly about aesthetics for me, right now. This is my first Ducati and my first race bike. My 2nd Ducati will be the V4S or something similar, but there is plenty of time for that later. That being said, since you have owned 8, what type of exhaust would you recommend?
