2025 Ducati Panigale V4 Build Series, Episode 3: First Service and Cost

[@maxwrist]

First service cost wasn't terrible. About equivalent to the S1K first service cost.

[@Connormoto]

Bro is gathering info 😂

[@BT_Moto]

@@maxwrist very similar in cost

[@roadglide]

Recon mode.

[@crashtestgoat]

I think my 2022 V4S has that shifter cooling duct as well. Also, I appreciated your quick responses to all of my R1 tune questions back in 2022. 👍😎🐐

[@tsarnevits]

Could you show us a glimpse of the My Ducati app? What it contains, is it more than just "the basic stuff". For example on the BMW app you can trace back your whole routse, speeds, lean angles etc at any given moment. Thanks!

[@BT_Moto]

The BMW connected app provides more as far as motorcycle connection options. The Ducati app is more like a news and reminder app where you can setup appointments, etc. Once we get the multimedia app and module installed, I’ll go into what that provides as that will be more like what BMW offers stock.

[@nickrider5220]

I do like the 2025 v4, but pricing is too high for me at present.....and I like to do all my servicing myself !

[@macmcmillen6282]

Do Ducati mechanics get factory training on the bikes? Just curious.

[@MattCannonScott]

Are there program boxes that you can do updates and get rid of service light?im not in an area of a dealer.

[@JohnGijbels]

What’s the thing with Marchesini wheels, saw the forged by Ducati wheels on the S. Are the Marchesini’s an order at Ducati or aftermarket shop?

[@BT_Moto]

@@JohnGijbels Ducati direct

[@Gary-r1o]

@ another way for Ducati to charge your more for less! Thats why I chose the 24 model over the 25

[@dwainmcarthur2565]

Why would you buy a base model only to pay for the same parts after the fact ( ie Marchesini wheels, sport seat, etc...) ?

[@BT_Moto]

@@dwainmcarthur2565 for a build series, and it’s better parts in the way we want it. The front fender on the S, for example, is just matte black plastic. We got the carbon front fender. Would have to get that either way. Manual suspension is the way to go for most track riders so we wanted to set our own up.

[@Chris_Panigale85]

The 2022 to 2024 Panigale have that exact cooling duct for the gear sensor

[@BT_Moto]

@@Chris_Panigale85 they do, but the initial models that had the failure didn’t. It’s just to show how Ducati fixed bike issues rather than just repair a known issue.

[@Thadopeera]

I was the biggest hater of the new gen Ducati. I talked so much crap 🤣 Then I rode one.. And bought one for myself 🤣 it’s like night and day riding the 2024 then the 2025

[@BT_Moto]

@@Thadopeera I rode a 2015 and didn’t like it. As soon as I rode a 2018 V4, I ordered it that day. Amazing bike

[@Gary-r1o]

still like the design of the 2024 better in terms of looks

[@TheSuperpod]

@@BT_Motofunny you say that. I was eyeing Panigale before V4 came out. Maybe it was 2016 or 2017. I test rode their smaller V2 at the time (9-something model ) and it felt so agricultural in the way that motor worked. I couldn’t do it. When 2018 V4 came out and I test rode it, I was sold immediately and bought it.

[@Trinity636]

Love my 2025! Kept the 2020 too, but the new gen is a noticeable improvement.

[@Thadopeera]

@ 💯💯

[@Naldo_S1K]

A cooling duct just for the shift sensor. 👀👀👀

[@justsayin6885]

Can this dual swing arm fit on a previous gen v4 with single side?

[@j.taveras8447]

no

[@Gary-r1o]

why would you want to put a dual sing arm on it anyways?

[@justsayin6885]

@@Gary-r1o wanted to be the first to ask this question dude

[@Gary-r1o]

The bike is not "locked" dont know why everyone thinks that they are? save yourself $300 and do the service yourself plenty of videos on here on how to do a oil change

[@BT_Moto]

@@Gary-r1o Ducati states the bike has a limiter around 12,500 when locked, and the RPM cluster turns orange after 7000 RPM

[@Gary-r1o]

@ Thats BS not true! Bike does not require a dealer to "unlock" it as service would only check for updates and log the first service for recording keeping purposes. I am curious at to where you got this information false information from as it is not stated in the owners manual or anywhere else I could find?

[@Gary-r1o]

Sounds like another Dealer money grab to get you to have them service your bike when you can do this service yourself.

[@Gary-r1o]

Only bike I know of that does lock the ECU is BMW.

[@BT_Moto]

@@Gary-r1o we got this information from riding the motorcycle for 621 miles before the first service.

[@stefanomussati3435]

Looooolllll It is not just an oil change as we check oil...metal shaving...error codes. Why isn't that what you are supposed to do at EVERY service? Change oil and check that everything is fine, that there are no metal shavings, error codes and that everything is bolted down??? I am Italian but PLEASEEEEE let's not tell people funny stories. It is very simple: Ducati charges much more than everybody else hence if you wanna own a Ducati.... you'd better be prepared to spend a lot of money in parts and Service! They are VERY expensive just because they can charge you that much. It is a premium brand and you pay accordingly it is very simple. It is not because they do something "special" or different. By the way I love Ducati and own a Panigale myself .....

[@roadglide]

Always gonna be someone who buys a McLaren or a Ferrari and then complains about the cost to service it. 😢

[@nicensleazy1892]

Sorry, but it looks so Japanese. Lost it's quintessential Italian styling. It makes the 999 and 749 look like glowing gems!
