Ducati Streetfighter V4 S First Ride and Review!

[@yammienoob]

Whoa! Looks like the gloves I was wearing in the video are almost sold out. Don't worry, use the code "V4S" on ANY purchase to get 4X entries at shop.yammienoob.co One more thing I didn't mention in today's video - the Ducati V4S is torque limited in 1st - 4th gear. We're getting a flash and an exhaust ASAP to unleash this monster :)

[@claytonlister25]

The lack of fuel gage is due to the tank shape, if I remember correctly. It wouldn't be accurate so they went with the light. Still, I get it.

Yam, how does this bike compare to the Kawi ZH2 "Overall riding experience"? Also, was their a price difference on insurance between this and ZH2? Curious . . .

All you need are throttle spacers to resolve your throttle issue. Had same issue with speed twin and was resolved with those. Easy peasy!

I have a 2016 fz09 and i love but the fz mt line ain't fast at all just quick bcuz how the torque comes on which makes it a entertaining street bike but of course it's nothing like the speed you get on 1000cc or in this case 1100cc

Test rode the Ducati Streetfighter V4S and it’s an amazing bike but I struggled with the riding position, twin sound of engine (and it’s loud at idle which is obnoxious) and it’s bit flat at lower legal speeds. The price is eye watering too. Ended up buying the Tuono V4 factory and I love it, the engine sound, positioning, chassis and torque. Two great bikes, we live in an amazing era of motorcycles

[@toshy]

First two things you NEED to do on this bike: oil sump guard and throttle spacers. They're actually mods you can do by yourself and they make a HUGE difference in terms of safety and throttle response.

[@MotoRacoonATX]

Throttle spacers cause friction in the throttle body, and can get the throttle stuck wide open. Ask me how I know.

Triumph could take a hint from this on how to properly integrate a front headlight that doesn't look like tumor. That is an insane bike.

I just got one, my 4th Ducati. Went from XDiavel to this. Im respecting its performance. Taking it easy. LOT LOT LOT of bike! Really too much for me on public roads but what the hell.

[@kriskellas1856]

I have had my bike for just shy of 2 years now and I most of the time keep it in sport mode but you can edit the Sport presets so you can have the engine setting to high. Street mode is handy for slow driving around town as it knocks the power down to around 130hp and can be a little less jerky 0-20mph. Race mode suspension is pretty brutal around street and bumpy country roads. It really is best for the track only. I would highly recommend watching Dave Moss's suspension setup for this bike. I felt it made a big difference, handles an absolute dream. If you think the bike is fast now then try and fit the aftermarket Akrapovic or Termi setup along with race map and performance air filter. Man it unleashes a hell of a lot responsiveness and power.

[@blob2092]

None of the models prior to the new 23 models are allowed to lower the hp. It changes the throttle strategy to allow the power to come on slower but it does not restrict horsepower, which is an addition to the new 23 models.

[@MarkJones-re3po]

You can change the rider modes on the fly. Press and hold the indicator button in untill they come up. Select which one you want, and then press the indicator button again. It will tell you to shut the throttle off for a second or so. It will then change into that mode. I never understand why people are hung up on fuel gages. When the fuel light comes on, the tank has about a gallon left. it also shows on the dash how many miles you've done with the light on. If you look how many mpg the bike is doing, then you can work out what range you have left. Its really quite easy.

[@prideventues]

I think the throttle pause is important so that torque and horsepower does not make it too jumpy at initial tip off.

Such a gorgeous motorcycle. Looks like it would be a absolute rocket to ride.

[@volodymyrshoniia2424]

It sounds like a V twin at idle because of cylinder deactivation. Coming from a tuono v4 to this was pretty weird when I tried, ergos are really weird (I guess I'm really used to more sport bike like ergos of tuono now, although I do also have a 690 SMC r), definitely more agile and easier to ride than tuono at lower speeds, definitely feels smaller and lighter, but not as stable at higher speeds. The one I tried had a stupidly loud akra that sounded awful, the engine is useless for the street imo because of how high up the power is, the throttle response is not bad, but the throttle travel is too long, low and midrange feels totally gutless compared to tuono (tuono just wants to rip your face off at any revs in any gear as long as you don't lug it too much). Counter rotating crank shaft definitely makes it not wheelie happy, combined with not much torque at lower-mid rev range it makes it not very exciting. It's easy to ride, but it's not raw like tuono, it doesn't feel engaging, the quick shifter isn't as good, and it lacks basic features like cruise control and fuel gauge at the stupid price point. Definitely much more beginner friendly and easier to manage (very easy to ride really) than tuono, sport mode felt like I would expect rain mode to feel. Tuono would be better for longer rides, this is better around town. Being gutless in low-mid range also makes it smoother than tuono. It does run hotter than tuono though. Would probably like it more if I played with a bunch of settings. Race with anti wheelie off seems like the way to go. A slightly used v4 still makes lots more sense than Sfv2 which doesn't have any power until 8.5k and costs more than base tuono 🤣 The main rules on the tuono are don't look at the speedo and don't look at the rate the fuel is disappearing.

Thankfully, I am a longtime follower and I know that you give great unbiased and factual experienced opinions. This review is much needed - because almost every other reviewer out there just is a Tuono fan boy (no doubt great bike) And it’s nice to see somebody who has acknowledged the great qualities of a Streetfighter that you cannot find out unless you had a very long test drive. For example you mentioned how it was very easy to ride around town under 6000 RPM whereas other bikes like the Tuono and the MT 10 would be really darty because of how aggressive their throttle responses are - and I found that to be helpful in my decision making for a future naked. I also loved your analysis about the highway speeds and not any need for a windshield and how comfortable the seat is. Keep the reviews coming 💪🏽🏍

Why not the Streetfighter V4SP?

31:11 I never owned a bike with a fuel gauge and my previous bike was a 2004 SV1000S 😅
