2018 Ducati Panigale V4 Review | First Ride

[@TBuidroneshot]

Your skill is so insane. Also love the engine sound of the new V4! Outstanding.

[@AakarshanB]

2AM and still jumped out of the bed and went straight to the living room to watch THIS, on TV! Quality stuff as always!

[@factoryrider9537]

I really don't understand how this channel is only at 320k subs you guys make such awesome videos in many regards. Lot of tech info, great descriptions about bikes and talking points and just the way you guys make them like the video with the Panigale V4 in the rain, with the awesome camera views etc. Lots of respect you guys are killing it!

[@factoryrider9537]

ClutchPedalReturnSpr I won't because I live on the other side of the planet lol, wish I could though

[@kartiktraj]

Many riders are more interested in watching squid v-loggers do wheelies on sumo's in the suburbs

[@mikeyp4690]

I've only just come across the channel and assumed it had way more subs. One of my most watched channels as of late!

[@kjfjsd]

Damn dude, this guys got skills riding like that and maintaining a coherent review going. Definitely a good video, subscribed hope more like this in the future

[@juliendufour4513]

Love the relaxing way you speak and drive 250 kph on a track

[@JaretCampisi]

This was amazing man! Had my heart pumping. haha Felt like I was there with ya. Thanks for sharing. Looking forward to the road review!

[@mickeypopa]

Yeah, I have my heart pumping too... every day ~70 times a minute. Weird, right?

[@JaretCampisi]

haha you're an ass you know what I meant

[@-JSLAK]

poser.

[@ODH3]

Love how you giggled like a little kid coming out of the corners... I could feel the joy

[@650ib]

I ♥️ your AlpineStars racing suit Zack!!!!!!!! Excellent review.

[@JaretCampisi]

you make me feel so good

[@JM-zq1zu]

Just watched this after your video about getting one!

[@kingtroll5635]

Stick that bitch on a dyno 650.I used to read motorcyclist magazine for all the liter bike reveiws but I think you do a better job.

[@650ib]

king troll We will place our Panigale V4 on the dyno along with my 1199R and HP4 the very moment it arrives.

[@triedproven9908]

It looks great with that miraculous bike! Can't wait to see your's ib.

[@jasinnerx1]

I love that you are giggling the whole time, you are definitely in the right line of work!

[@garrettga1]

How do you get this job?!? Riding a Ducati V4 at Valencia......The epitome of dream job

[@See_Sharp]

He's dream job was a MotoGP racer and ended up as a motorcycle journalist. Always aim high.

[@LambChopRides]

This bike really has my interest, Ducati have pulled it off!

[@gregbloodybryant]

Looking forward to your review 'chops'.

[@exnihilo415]

Pick one up. Chop. Chop.

[@saisr1]

Your review hooning on one of these will be very enjoyable!

[@derp195]

Doing a review and making intelligent observations while going 100+ mph around a track. Honestly just as impressive as the bike.

[@catmacleod6241]

I've ridden this course but of course never on that bike. VERY well done Zack, informative and authentic.

[@ND-mq4dd]

I could serioulsy watch this all day! I really feel like im riding the bike!

[@808islandlife_HI]

Awesome video Zack. It definitely got my heart racing.

[@evanstone7688]

Unreal video Zack, keep up the good work ! Love what you and Ari have been producing lately !

[@nigelseaton452]

The V4 video I was waiting for! Great video Zack! Can’t wait for a 2018 comparison!

[@deffarhan6748]

I just can't understand how you could still talk while doing corners like that.... You're riding skill are awesome!!! Love the relax review with such fun added to it :)

[@5up614]

Wow Zack great video notice the wheel wobble on the handlebars that I get out of my 1299 when coming out of corners that just tells you you're still alive. LOL. Can't wait to see you write it on the street.

[@dantton1987]

Best motorcycle channel by a loooong shot! Great review. Deffinetly my dream bike!

[@GETUPANDGO]

Better than the last track video--dry and sunny, looks gorgeous

[@abhinavv04]

Omg that was such an insane lap. ! That was so good. Man. Respect.

[@cigarobsession]

Beautiful bike, thanks for the lap and great info!

[@ExploratoryBehaviour]

I had to like it... You left me no option brother!!! Good info, proper elucidate of the experience and a scintillating ride!!!

[@tonybailey89]

You guys should definitely do more rolling track reviews just like this! it was great to watch and the bike really doesn't sound all that different from the standard sport twin Ducati...great video, can't wait for the full review!

[@veteq101]

My favourite Motorcycle channel...Great review as always.

[@Jaxxo11]

Awesome review again. Looks like an absolute beast. Thanks Zack!

[@jetpilotohetty]

So amazed to watch your bike reviews. Fully informative and straightforward. I really do wish to own a bike like yours, its a childhood dream. Tnx and keep it up

[@corujariousa]

You got lucky again to ride this bike. :-) I saw your other video "007 style" to ride it in the rain. I was surprised with how the bike sounds and how good the instrument panel is. Easy to read and good size. The frame brings me thoughts of a Japanese bike, which is a good thing. Have fun and stay safe!

[@Miata822]

Continuing greatness in video and print. Thanks, Zack.

[@phicuriousrex2974]

Zack makes these videos. Great personality.

[@rosenfeld8]

Reminded me of when I was invited for the press launch of the Panigale 959. Same track, same sunshine, awesome days :)

[@dukedaz8920]

Great to watch you taken them fast corners great vid thanks 👍👍

[@tryggmundur1188]

That thing sounds monstrous! Awesome vid man!

[@triedproven9908]

You really rode it man! Love the sound of it with the revs up on decel sounds like it has a lot of engine breaking. Like how the front end skips around second and 3rd. Also always good to point out that the engine is a load bearing piece of the frame which is why the sub frame does not have to wrap all the way around it saving weight. Beautiful bike when stripped like that.

[@saddle8bag]

That thing is insane. Nice riding.

[@jaimin891]

Great vid Zack! Hopefully we can get this on the daily commute episode soon.

[@Honezjr]

Ya gotta love that new Panigale. I'd never turn that bike down. I do like the exhaust note of the RSV4 or R1 more though. But that's just nitpicking.

[@oneclipse]

You Guys are doing a fantastic job with the content!😎 Thank you, and please keep it coming!🙌🏽

[@joseluismonterofernandez9261]

Awesome video Zack! Cant wait to see a road test

[@davidjames3985]

car people: 'don´t text and drive, its dangerous' - and indeed crash stupidly -. Bike people: motoblogging calmly while dragging the knee at 150. lol.

[@soumyapanigrahi21]

David James how is texting and talking are same things?

[@ArifSelect1]

David James did you ever see people texting while driving a bike at circuit ??

[@davidchen6711]

It's also KPH not MPH

[@Enzoxvx]

Guys it's clearly a joke. Don't get triggered without a reason.

[@adlibbed2138]

Lorenzo no joke but here in my town I saw a tiny fraction of people who texting whilst riding bikes

[@randydewees7338]

Great vid Zack! And GOOD on you Ducati! The sound does remind me of the S4R I once had.

[@j.wik.2060]

Yeeehaaa I have looked forward to this video! 😎👍🏻

[@monkefoahead]

i have never seen a bike review on a race track with knee down.cool as hell.nice weather to.

[@HellfireBeats]

Nice riding! I can barely walk and chew gum at the same time and you can fuckin lay knee in a turn one-handed while vlogging! Simply amazing!

[@martenk5370]

Excellent review sir! Some fine riding, really enjoyed it! Will you have a street review aswell?

[@howl4746]

Love your journalism and videos. The V4 ride was great each time I watched it. Please get a gyro to the camera you took the off track shots with.

[@mikegeyen3520]

Wow!!! what a rush!! Can't imagine how great it would feel to ride like that

[@devinmcintyre6488]

Perfect camera view.

[@muzman777]

Excellent review and informative without any flab.

[@TheCryptoHulk]

I watched other reviews..., but yours made me feel like I was really on that track riding. I own the 2016 Panigale 1299.

[@Zalonka]

Love your videos Zack.

[@Clint_the_Audio-Photo_Guy]

Great job man! Looks like a blast. Anytime I see these track videos it makes me think my ZX14R is a touring bike, lol. I've got a couple herniated disks in my back though, so the wheelbase and weight help out quite a bit for me. Rather stay riding, than not. :D

[@plumboss9764]

Ty, looked like a great experience, I like the info regarding frame to flickability.

[@matttorgersen9932]

I love all the videos and the magazine.Go to see more shootout videos. Keep up the good work

[@LookattheBiggerPic]

Wow, that is amazing! Good ride, good review/intro!

[@JLchevz]

wow Zack can ride lol

[@BritishBikerPhilippines]

That 8 minutes went fast....great stuff Zack!

[@upsidedowndog1256]

Damn good review. The explanation of the "stubb frame" was excellent.

[@davidfelter3552]

Wow. Great ride video. Awesome rider and awesome bike.

[@zeusman5195]

Please upload in 60fps its a much better experience watching at that frame rate especially for these riding videos.

[@35goaltender]

Finally! No longer a compromise on chassis design due to the too long and tall motor. Center of gravity higher in the frame allowing a better roll center. A longer swingarm with a much better pivot location to keep the front end down and with an optimized geometry, the infamous Ducati low side should become a thing of the past. What took so long?

[@ArifKhan.]

thats some pro riding!! nicely done!

[@liliomrufino2607]

nice ride, dude. great moto. nice track. congratulations.

[@adrenalinamotosgames]

Excellent analysis. Incredible motorcycle. My suggestion for future videos is a trip with Royal Enfields. Do something funny, as we fans love and show us your opinions on these bikes.

[@raynic1173]

Or how about a Ural, doh svidanya!

[@jitinvp3358]

Awesome video guys 😀

[@krissrock]

good video bro. you can really tell that you were going fast!!

[@INNOVVDashCam]

Awesome video and amazing analysis!!Love your video.

[@billdennis2993]

Thanks Zack now I want one but worn out back says no, when is Ducati going to put that glorious engine into a Multistrada.

[@robertgiggie6366]

I would love to talk with the engineers that made the timing decision. The whole point of having 4 cylinders is to make more constant power, according to your description they made a 4 cylinder L twin.

[@strengthbuild]

looking forward to the MC commute for this and the Scrambler 1100

[@etheducatista9308]

Awesome review, thanks Zack!

[@roysmith2152]

Exciting run Zack!! Thanks

[@awdeveau]

Beautiful bike, awesome riding. But I'm a little torn on the sound of the bike. Honestly I'm a bit disappointed, maybe my expectations were just a little to high. It sounds decent but I think Aprilia still wins in sound department at least.

[@kieranblubaugh7863]

Awesome dude! Looks like a blast! Know that it won’t be a better value but curious to get your opinion on it vs a s1000rr.

[@pinkpuffin187]

Beautiful video. Felt like I was there.

[@forrestculver7301]

Very, very cool. Had to remind myself it was kph. Thought you were going a little fast down the pit lane.

[@hukugubuhuku3399]

Awesome review dude!

[@jamsxr]

Great review as always 👍👍

[@JayanandSupali]

i so wished it sounded better. more like a 4 cylinder bike than a 2. slightly disappointed in that aspect. i would like to have some pantomime with such a high end and super performance bike. Zack, you were great at translating the feeling into words. ThanQ for the great experience n third person ride of the bike.

[@Braselton21]

IMAGINE If MotoGP riders had this vlog setup :D The views would be insane

[@henrysheen6471]

Heck of a smoking clip Zack

[@tarseal1]

please correct me, is there a standard Panigale v4 2018 and also the Panigale v4s 2018 which has the full ohlins electronic suspension. no one seems to know!

[@GhettoStar66]

wouldn't it be a good idea too take some of the heat to the tires so they stay warm?

[@brewerbrewer5988]

You rode it like you stole it, Zack! Kudos!

[@nikhilsrinivasan2533]

Wow great video felt like I was there Hey MCMAG please do a review of the new MV Agusta F3 675 2017

[@bsmukler]

It’s great to see and hear it in the daylight, although this video lacked the suspense of the one where you “stole” it :) I think one of the best things about the new baby is that Ducati kept the Panigale-ness of it. It’s still a slim, beautiful Italian masterpiece, completely different from other four cylinder bikes (V4 or inline).

[@Concordeagle]

The S1000RR "How it's made" video used to be the best video on KZbin. This video takes its place.

[@charlieryan1736]

Thanks for another great review

[@2m173]

Nice info and onboard footage. I did however feel like this was off somewhat from the high quality content typically seen from you.

[@jimpanzer07]

Not the best sounding v4 , Aprilia takes that honor but great review. Ducati needs to get a street fighter version as soon as possible!

[@mickeypopa]

"You see that dude? That's the dude in all the Ducati photos... that's him in the flesh. Even though I can't remember his name." Nice one, Zack.

[@sbklvr]

Thats how ya review a bike. Nice work.

[@olis790]

I sense a Ducati - Aprilia war coming soon!

[@masprassaja3818]

how much the power compare to the kawasaki h2?

[@billiondollardan]

179 mph on the straight... fast

[@SplendidCookie]

the bike was in km/h

[@TheRandomBikers]

280 kmh = 170 mph

[@b8tzim767]

288 kph=178.955 mph...

[@stevehash158]

billiondollardan other guys went 186,42 or 300kph..

[@billiondollardan]

At this presser or just in general? I mean I've seen a lot of 300 vids, I'm just saying that even 288 is fast. The fastest I've ever gone at a track was 160 (257 kph) at the Mid-Ohio in a car and that felt pretty quick. I can't even imagine 288 or 300 on a bike. I'm not that good

[@chillyourself5208]

What are the wires going into the top of the triple trees for? Thanks in advance.

[@AndreaZaffanella]

0:58 Why is Alberto Naska in the back?

[@leonardosanchez5604]

Do you think its worth it to change my rsv4 rr 2016 for this panigale v4? Is better in every way?

[@larunaaxthemischievous9762]

within reason, there is no such thing as braking too early on a track, you earn your ability to control those brakes more when you allow yourself to broaden your braking gap, making more agressive turns and better lines on the track, at least, that's my opinion
