Chris Northover, one of the best ever bike reviews I have ever seen. Very natural behind the camera 🎥 and very literate too, beautifully put over report with lots of information given. Well done sir, your report is what the others have to try and reach to. Let’s see more of you please.

[@JDeezle21]

Who the hell is putting a thumbs down on this review? Did you not get enough hugs as a child? This is an outstanding review

[@BikeWorldTVshow]

TJ Thompson thanks TJ!

[@jaybarrys8272]

obviously those who ride scooters

[@hubert1142]

There's a very few people who can ride and review bikes like this guy that could also be in an ad for hair conditioner. Good job man!

[@TheVilouboy]

THIS is how a review should be conducted. Bravo sir, and thank you

[@StatementPlus]

You are easily the best motorcycle reviewer now. Great rider, clear and concise with your breakdowns. Just awesome. I'm so jealous, but your on board made me smile. Thanks!

[@rodrigoazure]

No bullshit, just an honest test, honest opinion supported by the facts. Great reporting

[@brentanthony6038]

Hope you give Chris a raise Bike World. Ducati's pockets are deep and this man can sell their bikes. I can't recall a better bike review.

[@aydinvideo]

Now THIS is how you review a bike. Excellent job going over everything the prospective buyer would want to know.

[@robertpowers9063]

4 seconds off the MotoGP lab record is crazy fast for a stock bike...Ducati great job raising the bar on super bike competition!

[@michaelj.kastner5165]

This guy is an amazing journalist/rider

[@arkangelmark1]

Such an honest and friendly non ego driven take - I lobe this bike - had only a short get ride - not on track & it blew me away..

[@drazenvidakovic]

Well done,Chris. My favourite bike revew was your 1299 s Panigale. Now I have a new favourite and guess what, it's you and a V4 Panigale. Now I can watch this every now and then.

[@JohnMarcar]

Superb review! Been waiting to hear a review of the V4 and this is exactly what I was hoping to hear.

[@johna6968]

Always enjoyed Chris's reviews. The guy clearly can ride a bit.

[@Bongalicius]

Awesome Review and great to see Chris back on Bike World

[@hughiemg2]

Great review guys, always liked Chris Northovers style

[@Mockle07]

Outstanding review as always. I’m not sure what else you get up to but Bike World should wheel you out far more often. The bike looks stunning, I can’t wait to see how it does against the RSV4 & R1M

[@JaretCampisi]

Absolutely lovely review guys! It sounds like the bike has not only lived up to the hype, but gone above and beyond. So freaking excited to ride one!!

[@Pillokun]

Weren't you not going to buy one if it was slower than a inline 4 sportbike? From going by your past comments on youtube you care more for straight out speed and not if the bike is super nice handling when a track is technical and super twisty. Oh sorry I meant road not track, as you dont track race :P I think the v4 is not for you mate :P

[@JaretCampisi]

I was actually just joking as a dig to ducati saying we should get these bikes first than random people who don't know how to ride them and end up making the bike look bad. And yes I will be riding mine on the track as well as the street :)

[@DJ10ROCS]

Awesome review!

[@rattletop]

Thanks Stoner for blessing us with your inputs for this unreal machine! Great review Chris!

[@elle8062]

Ordered V4 Speciale Arriving 2018 March Can't wait to see my new Ducati

[@barakof4269]

I'd like to see more of Chris Northover in the future. Nice review.

[@5up614]

Barakof I second that!!

[@5up614]

Awesome review!!!!!! So very impressed you were able to get a great technical interview from Ducati test rider. I am so excited about this bike being a track weapon for I have just started using my 1299sa on track days and intend on using my speciale for track days also as well as doing direct comparisons on my V4 Vs my 1299sa. But this review makes me feel even more confident with up coming purchase!! Thanks guys!!

[@JohnS916]

I'm impressed with this reviewer, he has it together and provides a clearly understood narrative about technology and rider impressions. I don't think you can add anything more to this, he covers everything quite well. The bike has me totally intrigued, but unfortunately I stopped buying and upgrading Ducatis after I bought my 999R. I'm totally happy with the bike, but I would sure like to try out the modern electronics just for kicks.

[@BikeWorldTVshow]

Great bike the 999R

[@JT-et7ui]

This was a great review. Need to see more of this guy!

[@pommeybiker]

Love the guy doing the review, top dog

FULLY AGREE thanks for your review. I tested it and loved the smoothness of the wheelie control if one can say this. I know all software but hey we’re in the 21st century!!!

[@aluisious]

My god. I stopped riding sport bikes a few years ago to be "mellow" on a Multistrada...but man do I want this. Ducati is knocking it out of the park.

[@Kneedragon1962]

Nice review. Well done.

[@alihopley]

Feckin awesome Big Man, look forward to hearing the full review. Nice riding and glad your filling the tank before the ride, I`m guessing with your usual fine dinning experience of kebab !

[@TheyCallMeCoolRon]

Excellent review! I’m subscribing now.

[@BikeWorldTVshow]

TheyCallMeCoolRon thanks

[@DevInvest]

Nice review, thank you! I'm wondering how the model will be round town/specifically heat mgmt... I'm very interested

[@conceptsmart]

nice to see Chris again!

[@Pillokun]

Super nice coverage of the new Ducati Panigale V4, and super early too boot. :) I am very pleased to hear that Chris says that the new Duc is nimble and light when it gets to technical parts of the track. Super positive about hearing that :) Lets hope that Ducati will make a base model with 1000cc, so that we dont need to buy a super duper expensive and souped up V4-R Panigale if we simply want to race it too!

[@paulklees9871]

Pillokun i think Ducati make somthing what others also will do.I meen just 30 Years Ducati puts Special Models of each Model they have made.And Today al Conpanies do the same with Special Models.also the Fact with a two Model of Suoerbikes one for using for the Track and Street and on the other Side a R Version for Championchip when you wont realy race you just have allmost a Rady Bike for the Track without any Compromise.Yes tge R Model cost a lot of Money but eaven a Honda SP2 is not that Cheap and if you wont Race with the big Guys you have to spend Money than dosennt maderrs if you buy a Honda Sp2 or a Panigale on bouth you have spend Money for serious Race.

[@Pillokun]

Mm, but a base model in this caliber/segment is often more then enough, at least for club racers. Even the oldest of oldest superbikes would suffice if the rider is good enough. But we still have to adhere to racing regulations such as max capacity. It really is a shame that we cant race a base Panigale V4 as it not conforming with the regulations. A base Panigale V4 but with 1000cc would be so appreciated I think, at least for us that want to race a duc like we could use in the past without getting the most expensive version :)

[@paulklees9871]

Pillokun what speaks against it to take a Base Model 1100ccm and go on Track for A rider ho wont to go on Track it dosennt maderrs.The 1000ccm you only need if you go on International Championschip and to bee Compatiblle you need the best Material.

[@Pillokun]

mm, but I and plenty of others cant race in a series when the bike is over 1100cc and it has 4 cyl. The regulation of a series is often closely tied to national and international series. So for a happy amateur who wants to race from time to time on a Panigale v4 cant as he has to pay up say probably 50% more to get the top of the line version.

[@paulklees9871]

Auto blipper for Track maybe eaven better if you put Öhlins from the Factory without Electronics😎

[@greenlightning6971]

Have you ever been on Air Show with P-51's,ME-109's flying around strip?? Well...it sounds like this , dafoq that sound on a straight is amazing. Amazing bike , no words. Ty

[@omblae]

Unbelievable review. Unbelievable bike.

[@BikeWorldTVshow]

Thanks

[@FastRu-kl7iy]

Nice to see Chris again here

[@iannamico]

curious to know if they are on street or race tires for these rides?

[@malcolmpickering2438]

Excellent review great camera work and nice editing. Now how much will I get for a kidney!

[@mrfob6237]

IT IS SOO COOL!!!

[@barbieandbellaadventuresby9134]

Interesting about the quick shifter, I found I missed gears in the same way on their Super Sport but on the 959 no issues at all. Mind you I’m pretty sure the Super Sport quick shifter is quite different to the Panigale so who knows? I don’t think the stock exhaust system is as nice as the out going Panigale.

[@jeffyJGamingbitminigame]

Wo wo wo did you say anti weelie control? And another question can i put the mirrors down so they wont be in the way when i park it.

[@bridgedown1]

Great review.Me wants one.............

[@TheSuperpod]

So happy to see this bike from Ducati. Just what the doctor prescribed ! Not Valentino, but I am sure he would approve, if he was allowed. =)
