Ducati Streetfighter V2 2022 - road and track review in south Spain

We have been waiting for ir… and now it's here, and it will be in the showrooms of Ducati dealers as early as December 2021. We had the opportunity in the sunny south of Spain for a first test on road and track. Is, with the basic of the Panigale V2, the best and better for the road Streetfighter?

Thanks for the video and in English [for the world audience]. What a lovely looking bike. It lines are cleaner and sleeker than the V4 Streetfighter and in my opinion this is easily the best looking street naked on the market. It hits the sweet spot between the Hyper nakeds and the middleweights. This could be my next bike.

[@jhstony]

Fantastic, thanks for being the first review out there on the new Streetfighter V2.

[@tonebonetones]

Excellent review. There is good choice from Ducati for middle weight bikes, this machine, the Monster, and the Super Sport all seem good for the road without extreme sports riding positions.

[@bibhabbag1]

Perhaps the earliest review video on youtube. Wow!! I was waiting when the review of the v2 will b out and u guys have already had the video for 2 days already. Great job.

[@Damjan25]

13:21 what an amazing looking bike :)

[@Rlindagem]

5 Star video and review.

[@philip5798]

Agreed

[@gregreynolds9708]

I love the real commuter details "manhole bumps"! Thanks for the review.

[@CorvusHyperion]

Will there be a V2S?

[@philip5798]

About time you offered your videos in English 👏 English subtitles would have been fine also. Great work - subscribed

[@markreynolds8630]

Thanks! Appreciate the English commentary.

[@crestaenine]

Damn, my man! Now I want one. How will I tell the wife? BTW your English is superb, thank you for this!

[@christieclanadventures6828]

Love the bike 👌

[@TravTheMan44]

Top marks for the review 👌

[@minatormyth]

I like the option of having the wings

[@darrenbutler160]

Excellent review . Love the detailed information about track set up . Only thing missing from most reviews is fuel range when ridden quickly as this was what put me off buying the v4 streetfighter.

[@markuspinter1153]

Consumption is much lower than that of the V4. About 5.6 litres with a very sporty riding style. Fuel tank capacity is 17 litres. The rest is simple mathematics ;)

[@bokiNYC]

Great review, thanks, love the bike. The only minor thing is the Pirelli Rosso IV - it's the old Roman numeral 4 at the end, not the letters I V.

[@Mark........]

Great review , thanks guys

[@MRT.7957]

Will they release a V2s version?

[@russelldheilman]

No. This is the budget option.

[@jackett75]

Thank you for the English review 🙏

[@srtspeedy4983]

What a looker. Stunning bike, Im only a bit disapointed about the price. 1k less than the Aprilia V4 factory and 2k more than the more powerfull MT10. For 16ish k it would fly out from the dealers but I will wait for a sale or buy something else.

[@robertdavis4761]

Great review!! I would love to know how this bike compares to my 2020 Triumph Speed Triple S on the road.

[@scottgilmour2135]

I have a 2021 StRs and probably thinking the same thing you are 👍🏻

[@pistolpete6321]

Great review!

[@wellwonky]

Great review - thanks!

[@stevesanelli90]

This is the one!

[@benasgud]

How tall are you?

[@checkyourself164]

at 2:55 you say in terms of materials it ranks at an identical level to the V4... Except it doesn't. The switchgear for example is ALL lower grade than the V4, take a look at them side by side to see. The seat material also is lesser quality.

[@nongorilla1]

I can’t get over the extra lap the exhaust pipe has to take underneath the saddle, thanks Euro 5! This has been done slightly better on the Super Duke R by going round the engine in my opinion;)

[@tonebonetones]

Yes, not onky is it going to get hot u der the seat but it is going to get packed with dirt and road debris and be a pain to clean.

[@kugangles9860]

Yep, they're just making harder and harder to design bikes with these BS standards. If they had it their way we'd all be riding around on electric scooters or pedal bikes.

[@bazitube390]

be realistic. who the fuck buys this bike and keeps the stock exhaust? unless its illegal to change exhaust where they live.

[@tubejorrit]

@@bazitube390 Even with another exhaust you keep the exhaust bend because the bike needs equel lenght headers. KTM solves this by having the bend underneath the engine.

[@charlesgutscher1923]

The exhaust under the seat isn't a euro 5 thing, it's a Ducati thing. It's been that way in the penigale for a while and it's to keep the exhaust runners equal length while also keep weight centered on the bike. It's sucks for your legs but it's a great design for performance purposes.

[@IAMMRLIMA]

Omgggg I think I found my next bike 🏍

[@eduardoolivares9653]

Speed triple killer :)

[@Myself6M]

Hey guys! Please make more videos like this in English and/or put some English Subtitles in the German ones. I like your channel a lot, but my German is kinda 'Supermarktdeutsch', and I strangle very much to follow! 😅

[@worldtraveler8613]

Im so lusting after this bike right now

[@eduardoolivares9653]

Tank liters?

[@eduardoolivares9653]

17 l :)

[@markobutkovic5414]

A dream job

[@Youtube_Globetrotter]

cool bike for sure. With Öhlins damper it would be best. But I stick to my KTM for now

[@blurfonz88]

I just got a Monster plus but I tested this beast.... now I want to sell my Monster!! ;(

[@gusseisern1151]

Wenn streetfighter dann gleich eine V4, aber die hier hat den schöneren Auspuff

[@dennismillus4581]

I want to see the V2 against another bike.

[@awesomeerr8765]

Too expensive for what it is. It would have been a smarter move to charge 2k less.

[@tubejorrit]

Agreed, its to close to the V4, you can even buy an one year old v4 for the same price as a new v2 at the moment. It's a shame because if it was 2000,- euro cheaper I would have bought one right now.

[@Pillokun]

If it only was lighter... I am actually very interested by this machine but the weight make no sense to me.(well the restrictions are an explanation but still :P ) I would love to see a more stripped down version, ie less plastic on the machine when it comes to the engine area ie would love to see more of the engine, and the hoses and such could be integrated in the engine side cases and only be rubber a short length between the engine and the radiator for the more raw version. It would add some weight but think we are getting past the weight weenie stage anyhow with how the bike is now :)

[@DucRobertO]

👍🏼

[@FancyAnimal]

Sounds like this guy did the audio overdub sitting on the toilet.

[@michaeljkasnter]

You an absolute FOOL if you think the V-4 has too much power in the USA!!! When you ride on the interstates in the USA, cars are traveling 80-100-mph, so the Streetfighter V-4S power is well used to keep you safe!!! How is the V-4 Loud ? Dont people ride with ear plugs and a helmet ? The V-4 with full Akropovic Exhaust is just GLORIOUS !!!!! THe V-4S Streetfighter has been the best motorcycle I have ever ridden/owned. My only complaint is it needs cruise control!!! heated seat/grips

[@Whatever_Rad]

Same! People who don’t ride US highways will never under stand. It has all the power you’ll ever need and it rides fantastic! I too own the SFV4S with full Akrapovic exhaust and it’s glorious!

[@2_Bike_is_Life]

No way I give up the V4 engine, no matter how much you lambast it for its brutality.

[@Whatever_Rad]

Same! I was talking to a V2 pani owner and he states “I should of bought the V4” but whatever anyone wants it’s their choice.

[@talkingrock7011]

Very cool looking bike if performs the same just set it on kill and enjoy

[@Bow-to-the-absurd]

Much prettier than the v4

[@Whatever_Rad]

Hardly, the V2 is covered up with so much plastic you can’t see or enjoy the looks of the engine. Everything from the gas tank down is crazy covered with plastic parts. It’s a naked right? Expose all that stuff

[@No1toldmeb4]

Why not a different design like the previous streetfighter 848 or 1098, which was more attractive with it's exposed chassis rods. This design sucks and doesn't make it a real ducati streetfighter

[@SalvaGian47]

sorry, old one is still better
