Crotch Rocket with Paddle tire in Sand Dunes and Snow!

[@Shadow0fd3ath24]

"Ducati V4" in the title will for SURE get more views lol this is nuts

[@Zt3v3]

On the other hand, maybe crotch rocket will attract non motorcycle folks too. I agree though, Ducati in the title sounds better, it's like using Hayabusa.

[@GT-kt6tz]

"Crotch rocket ducati v4" it is then

[@DougTunnler]

just call it the '2000 hp Ducati' 😅

For real, though, it should be Ducati v4 crotch rocket

Just a Ducati thing haha, my monster throws a false low oil pressure warning whenever I take it out in the rain. Swear to god these bikes are such divas

@ChrisP576 i haven't had any issues with my Multistrada V4 except some mice that decided to make themselves comfortable.

[@rickhouston2144]

Hahaha like the big adventure bike guys.

[@CyberChrist]

@@ChrisP576 Is that an older or newer model ? Because my 2001 and 2012 never had this problem, despite my living in Brittany, which has a (false) reputation for being rainy. I was under the impression whenever the Audi guys arrived, they explained to the Italians that some people actually ride in the rain, which seemed to be a VERY remote concern for Italian manufacturers until then.

Déjà fait par un français, "la boiserie"

[@mostlymotorized]

Ducati is Ride by wire. In race mode the throttle opening is quicker early on. If you put it in Street mode or rain mode the throttle will open more gradually based on the twist of your throttle hand. Therefore smoother The Hayabusa has mechanical throttle. So your twist versus throttle opening is a one-to-one ratio

[@vinmandich7756]

Don't tell em dam it man I want to see the loop out again

[@verysmallcats1374]

Except the way that mechanical throttle cables open throttle bodies doesn't open it 1:1. The ratio of throttle plate tilt to air volume(let in by the throttle twist) is not a one to one ratio, it's a curve. Cams do alleviate this a bit though.

You should put a really big rear sprocket on that thing to take advantage of the higher gears and rpm. Other than that, that thing Riips!

And there was me thinking my recent mid-winter day out on Salisbury Plain, in the UK (a balmy 7°C) , on a bike that's designed to be riding offroad was fairly extreme. This is preposterously epic. The way Matt and Kev are riding that Ducati is immense! 😎👌

One huge feature on the v4 is the electronics, you can change all the power curves, torque settings, etc. Play around with those and create presets depending on your environment and terrain! Do a video about it, would be really cool. Bravo champ 🏆

You’ve hit a combination that could be it’s own category for dune riding. With the right tire set up there’s enough power to float your way across some crazy fluff and serious dune height. Very cool stuff guys. Very cool. 👍🏻😎👍🏻

[@informatik-und-design]

This was the best motorcycle video of 2024 🎉

[@greydoesmatter]

Dude, you're one of the best dirt riders I've seen in years. This build is absolutely bonkers! i would see if a company could make you a set of fairings out of Kevlar or Impact resistant ABS as this bike needs to survive your abuse lol.

[@AaronGottaHelmetCam]

Hey Matt, just an FYI related to your suspension adjustment. So long as you are in the dynamic range of the damper, not topped or bottomed out, adjusting the spring collar will only change the sag / ride height. The spring itself needs to be exchanged for one with a lower rate if you want it to be softer. you probably want that spring pushed as far down as it'll got without topping the damper out to maximize ride height, but that will be at the cost of sag when the rear leaves the ground.

[@neildiamondz8207]

I can’t tell you how good this Thing looks bro it’s a whole new breed of bike and it looks amazing

Not an offroad guy, but having ridden in the snow with sportsbike Pirellis, I can assure you that riding one gear higher and being more gentle than you usually would helps not to get stuck.

[@guitarmike4ever]

Matt, I don't know what's more impressive. Your magnesium welding abilities, plaid-moto off-road skills (you should patent a new class lol), or below freezing bare knuckle rides 🤯Seriously the coolest thing I've seen on the internet. Watching you drill the bodywork/metallurgy mods @ prob $15K OEM new parts, body work is $5K, tank alone is $5K, stock exhaust $4K, triple clamps, etc - made me cringe and laugh at the same time hahahaha. As a fully in tact 21 Panigale V4 owner, Ducati fan, and track rider, I enthusiastically approve. What's even more hilarious - pretty sure you found out ~100 mph to RL in 1st gear makes sense why you never shift - insane off-road speed. Shift to 2nd RL 130 - you got 4 left to 200 mph😆. All the thumbs up👍👍👍👍👍👍👍

As I understand, changing preload wont make it stiffer or softer unless you have a progressive spring, it will just cause the bike to sit higher or lower in the suspension's travel.

[@yeahok115sure]

I would 100% build this same bike! The height is spot on!

[@DaStuntChannel]

The preload won't make the spring more stiff/less stiff, it just will change the initial behavior of the spring, if the preload higher, it takes a bit more force to move it. It essentially sets the ride height and not much more. But yes for sand it will help since it will track better under less force
