There is no one, no group, no team like 44teeth out there. We are very lucky to witness these guys in action. I enjoyed this video so much. The quality, the info, the fun factor/ entertainment was so high. Man! Hats of for Al. Great job lads!

[@vorbert]

@old man strength I will check them too. Thanks

[@hubert1142]

Noice one, Statham! If everybody had a road like this close to their house, there would be no wars. Mainly because most men would die trying to beat the hill climb record.

[@richardkillian5657]

Yep I would be dead if I had this road near my house but I would have a big fat smile on me in my coffin

[@BeardedFistOfZeus]

The production value is superb! Excellent video guys

[@SnoozewithSam]

The intro production quality had me gushing. That sort of thing isn't easy to make happen, so it's massively appreciated. Great video guys. ❤️

[@jdahack7367]

If you look at the launch from other channels (like MCN), they all had the same opening images and drone footage etc. Maybe Ducati helped out there to spice up the launch vids. Talk about niche bikes.

[@SnoozewithSam]

@Jdahack ah.. very likely. Still, I'd have bitten their hand off, too, if it was on offer.

This presentation was in a different league to the others I’ve seen, well done lads.

[@MossopUK]

Top production values in that video! The road looks epic and it was a great review on the bike. Had a bit of a giggle at some of the marks on the roadside barriers where some overenthusiastic motorists have gone in a bit hot!

[@jezzasidewinder5993]

holly crap, filming has stepped another step on this video dramatically! not that any of your other stuff was bad, just next level now!

[@andrewlucas6214]

It’s like a fairy tale. While world leaders were trying to destroy freedoms and economies, there was a king who made the perfect road to indulge his appetite for fun and share it with likeminded souls! Bless this guy. Great bike..I’d say, true successor to the 80’s v max.

[@Terraceview]

Fantastic video as always 44teeth, but I prefer the big V-twin in a bike like this.

[@ilmostro16]

I didn’t feel any uncomfortable heat on a demo ride I did recently for 2 hours in some traffic, stoplights, and Highway on an 82F day. The bike is absolutely fantastic.

[@timh6845]

Superb introduction to the V4 Diavel! Seems like they are holding back the S version (which seems to be Ducati’s way of thinking these days). Given the V4S StreetFighter & Panigale V4S are the similar money, it should have Ohlins electronic suspension. They are taking the piss with that exhaust price too! I’m glad I’ve got my red 1260S. It’s fucken horn.

[@yumpbalump]

Absolutely should have the electronic suspension for me to upgrade from my 1260S. Also - heated grips should come standard on a bike at this price. It's just nickel and dime crap to have to add it. Will be interesting to see what they do with the S.

[@stevebolton8471]

It's so rare to find really good rider's view filming which stays with that view. It's really immersive. I would like to watch the the complete laps up and down. And then we get the excellent commentary - "It's like going to Bangkok and finding a phallus instead of a flange" 😆😂

[@lyndonbull3581]

From the first 20 seconds and the drone footage, definitely the best footage of this launch. I’ve watched a couple of reviews already and was waiting for this one. Worth the small wait, as always…….😊

[@ferociousfrankie]

I'm pretty sure they give them the same B-roll footage. Only difference is how they edit it.

[@lyndonbull3581]

[@ilmostro16]

Great video. It’s amazing how much it sounds like the 1260, at least on the video. I can’t hear any difference on the video. Don’t like the stock exhaust design but that would come off anyway 😉.

[@jack14kd]

Yes panigales do get very hot but I think people do go over the top with the heat thing

[@SuperSnallygaster]

Congrats. I'm obsessed.

[@steveottavaino3804]

Superlative review, finally mention of the fact that the real world experience might differ based on true road riding conditions. I await reports in the future but admit it just could be my last ride before mothballing my riding gear after a wonderful life time of riding. Sure would be nice to have my exit bike be a Ducati, but postponing retirement to afford it not exactly floating my boat. I’ll take red please and perhaps an “S” version? Thanks for sharing!!! Cheers.

Amazing video and commentary and the way you were all hustling up and down that road was epic, that has got to be one of the best bike launches I've ever seen, how does it rate for yourself?. I love my Monster 1200S but think it's time for an upgrade

[@bsmukler]

I would love to see you find a way to borrow a V4R for a track review. I know there wasn’t a regular press launch (Nome was needed: The bike has sold like hotcakes.), but it would be a blast to see and to get your opinion.

[@NYCnapeHb]

Greta review! How’s the sitting position compared to the 1260?

[@wobblysauce]

That road is smoother then most tracks.

[@2wheels6strings8]

Fantastic review of what looks like a bloody good bike.

[@Google_Does_Evil_Now]

It's like they took the Yamaha V-Max from 1985, V4 1,200cc power cruiser, 140mph, and used Ducati skills to reinvent it in their style.

[@imbologna]

"...like the same sort of surprise you get when you go to Bangkok and you find a phallus instead of a flange...it shouldn't be this good." 😏

Looking good Jase

[@robertmontefusco1902]

Awesome review! I'm not sure if this question came up before; however, what is the spec on the suspension? I can not find what the manufacturer is for the forks or rear shock! Also, any word on when they will offer an S version with Ohlins?

[@monkmoto1887]

Thing is, in the UK roads like this are remote to non existence, real world test on the Welsh roads for a weekend etc its not going to feel as plush when you hit a pot hole , drain cover or semi smashed up tarmac. Be better to do a test in the UK 🇬🇧

my main "brotha" 650iB was in the 'House of Dubai' and he's like a little ant producing videos while test riding the 2023 Diavel V4. Once they come out here on the East Coast(as I just got back from my other home on the island of Oahu, Hawaii), I'll buy one immediately. I'll probably have it transferred back home to Hawaii after riding it around Virginia and hitting the Appalachian Mountains...

[@sp00ky1969]

Excellent video. This looks like a really interesting road bike. Comparing this with the Streetfighter, what would you say are the relative strengths of each? Is there something that would make you choose one over the other or does it just come down to looks? I assume the Streetfighter’s going to have more clearance.

[@vindiesel5466]

Diavel is much heavier than the streetfighter, Diavel is just a sooped up cruiser

[@sp00ky1969]

@@vindiesel5466 Being lighter isn’t necessarily a strength - without any context that’s just a statistic. From a purely performance perspective then lighter is better. I would presume the Streetfighter has better handling but that’s the sort of thing I was asking about, ideally from someone who has ridden the current Diavel and Streetfighter.

[@gregorytherocketscientist1317]

I got a 2020 1260S and put the Termi short pipes on it - she’s a hot rod and loves to make a ruckus and pass everything - this new bike sounds like everything else - but it definitely still looks cool😎 Just love all the 44Teeth content - keep ‘em’ coming
