[@2wheelsrbest327]

Neevsy certainly as the skills in both being a competent rider & presenter. Long may he reign.

[@711Streetfighter]

Neevsy, your complaint about lack of grunt making the bike feel sterile around town is completely correct. I felt it on mine as well. To other SFV4 owners I suggest getting the Termignoni UpMap and installing the MTorque map for the stock exhaust. It really wakes the bike up in 3000 to 7000 rpm range in the lower gears. Even with the wheelie control on it will wheelie with just a weight shift or tug on the bars. Ducati limits the opening of the throttle bodies in gears 1-4. Also the exhaust valve closes between 4-7k rpm to limit noise affecting performance in that range as well. I’ve owned a few bonkers naked bikes (Streetfightered 91 GSX-R 750 with a 1340cc 180hp engine) and this really was the best mod if you’re looking for grunt in the midrange. Just sharing my only complaint and fix so far with the bike.

[@theevanprinciple6625]

I have a Tuono, so I have no skin in this game. However my favorite quote "it doesn't have heated grips, it has the button, but you have to pay extra for that option, which is kind of mean" Neeves is awesome, that is all.

[@vitalstatistics938]

I did think about one but settled for a Monster 1200s instead. I just couldn’t see me using, wings, 14000 revs and 208 bhp on the road and all for an extra £5k. Definitely made the right choice with the Monster. Grunt everywhere, you don’t have to dance on the gears, it does over 50 mpg and the black on black colour scheme is great.

[@darrenbutler160]

Excellent and honest review. Was really excited when this bike came out so booked a test . Really great suspension and strong motor when revved up but after 67 miles of mildly naughty riding fuel light came on , and I purposely brimmed the tank at the start of the test. It will wheelie 3rd gear with a bit of a tug on the bars and no clutch. Bought the Superduke 110-120 miles to a full tank and sharper handling at least when the front tyre is in contact with the road

[@jamsxr]

Agreed. Owned a SDR and Tuono, was exited about this to start with, but now it’s here it does nothing for me.

[@darrenbutler160]

Great review, very well done. Honest. Straigth. Competent. Useful.

[@drbn3245]

I enjoyed your review and agree with these points as I own a SF V4S. I am really happy with the bike. If I could change something I would like to - have a fuel gauge (u get used to it), - the exhaust could be just a little less loud (u sometimes end up driving 50-54 km/h in town -> exhaust valve closed) and - take away the power limitations from Ducati (in the lower gears). ...at the end you just fell in love with this bike and it doesnt matter if there are bikes which are "better", the SF is just beautiful :-)

[@bschoenecker]

Agreed, except for the exhaust. I have the Akra system and love it

[@plingboot]

Any chance that Ducati might send you the wind shield to try - it’d be interesting to see whether that makes much of a difference on longer rides. Great round-up though. I’d have this over any of the others on your list. 🙂

[@michaeljkasnter]

Those wings work on my roads!!! 75-Express Lanes/Florida Turnpike/Sawgrass Expressway!!! Just Sublime at 140-150-mph!! Then shifting into 6th dropping the RPM to 7k from 14k, the bike will just emitt the nastiest GROWL!!!! Also the Ducati Performance wind screen works exceptionally well for high speed riding!! Also helps divert wind from your phone/dash/your head. Bike is just insanely fun!!!!!

[@okboomer1241]

Regarding your horse power dismissal, I remember when the Yamaha R1 debuted in 1998 and every magazine including yours had some variation on the cover that read something like, "Nobody needs 137 horsepower." Remember when we believed the Ducati 916 and Yamaha R7 were "superbikes"?

[@oneonlyxram]

I'm noticing a trend with Ducati and the more user friendly versions. I tested this a few months ago, thought it was the most comfy ducati I've ridden in a while, but it did miss that Ducati rawness. Now I want to know who is doing these services because they are wayyy cheaper (yes I know pounds to dollars difference) than here in the US...or my dealership is ripping me off.... :)

[@CorvusHyperion]

Very interested in your thoughts on this compared with the Ducati Diavel. They are similar in price. Would it be fair to say that the Diavel would be more fun at slower speeds with more accessible torque? I realise they are very different bikes but the similar spend has them in competition.

[@PCERules]

What I’d love is for Mr Neeves to do a video and article on his last ten long term test bikes and which ones he would have bought and why those not the others... please?

[@bschoenecker]

The bike isn’t sterile. Not in the sense of an S1000R for example. The lack of grunt is mostly due to the electronic torque limiting in gears 1 to 3. This does what it’s designed to do: make the bike go faster. This bike when said and done, is a Panigale V4 without a fairing. Would you say the Panigale V4 is sterile or weak? It’s power delivery designed for smooth speed, and less hooliganism. The tech on this bike is second to none and is designed to allow the rider to push the bike harder safely. With the Akra full system and up map this bike is an absolute beast, and still smooth enough to commute or ride around the city. Amazing bike, and I’ve been extremely happy with mine so far.

[@rackbites]

You had a 1098 SFS as a long term loaner 10 years ago ... can you borrow one and do a head to head piece on the evolution of the bike over 10 years ... I still have the 1098 SFS ... why would I upgrade ...

I disagree with you on that. While Ducati makes great looking bikes, not all of them are, and not everything from Italy is nice to look at either, take the face of an Aprilia.

[@Joric78]

I suppose Ducati have the Monster if you want a torquey, naked street bike. I bought the Super Duke personally, because that donk really does it for me. You can be absolutely lazy, just leave it in third, and still make rapid progress. I think Aprilia also figured it out when they bumped the Tuono to 1078cc. Strange that Ducati chose to leave the Streetfighter so close to the Panigale in power delivery.

[@Back2TheBike]

An honest review. For less than half the price you can get a low mileage Monster R. My black 2016 plate with red bling looks like new, has 5K miles, 50mpg, 163bhp and more capability than youll ever need in every department. If you fancy a blast Mr Neaves let me know 😉 All day comfortable too.

[@MichaelSmith-pd5pt]

Sounds like this is the answer to what happens if Italians make a BMW motorbike. You get a very pretty and fast bike that you don’t ever quite love. I bought a 1098 Streetfighter on Nevesy’s recommendation and loved it till it made way for a BImota DB9S (another Nevesy recommendation)these bikes I use to longed for the weekend to go for a blast. It didn’t matter that I was not the best rider, it just made riding so special which is what Italian bikes do, that’s their purpose. People will tell you how much better every other bike is and claim stats but owning any Italian bike and looking back at it once then twice and three times when you park it and the happiness you get walking up to it to jump on it, no other bikes do that. Even if you get a 695 monster you get the same pleasure The other thing Ducati’s do is feel fast and that isn’t bhp that’s the massive torque they have everywhere even little Ducati’s feel fast for their displacement. I was pumped when they said this bike was coming but have no interest in it sounds like I’ll never love it. Sorry Ducati sounds like a missed opportunity, go back to what you use to do.

[@henrynasif8056]

I wonder if the Euro version is any different (setup/tuning etc.) to the one I purchased a month ago here in the Middle East. Its bonkers even from low rpms. Exciting, loads of fun.

[@bschoenecker]

Same here. Does not feel sterile to me

[@kneesparks]

They are saying the power and torque is the same next year but with a massive reduction in peak torque revs. 2000rpm lower is peak torque now, this should make it more punchy so it will feel quicker and make for a faster bike.

the coming 2021 model of the SF V4 is announced with more torque available in lower revs region, near 9000. This could behave more similar to the characterics of the Tuono. But still having more headroom as the Tuono (11,5k) up to 13k revs and that +200 horsepower class extension. Can't wait to test drive the 2021 model and compare it to the Tuono...

@@zblazjusz shure, wait a little for the new one 2021 model. If Tuono 1100 Factory SAS (same Öhlins like the Ducati) is for you: the SAS exists since the 2019 model. A specialist can program the ECU to give more torque in the 3,5 to 7k rev region, resulting in real more power and sound, too. The Tuono has Cruise Control, and with a windshield from Powerbronze bigger drivers can go highspeed with no stress! One has to try it to believe. And - you can save real money buying a used one instead of the Ducati, new. Saved money: You can buy a set of forged wheels RSV4, plug it 1:1 into the Tuono factory. Handling is lighter, the suspension feels more precise (already discussing at a very high level)

Michael is a legend really

[@timothymills733]

A lot of Ducati shoppers, whether new or existing owners, don't do a lot of cross-shopping between brands; if they desire a Ducati , nothing else is going to do; it is the aspirational aspect of Ducati ownership. So I think this moves them outside the realm of competing with other makes, and instead competing against other models within their own range. So that leads to my question, what about this bike versus a Monster 1200R? Would that comparison be more realistic for potential owners? (as a long time Ducati owner, when I am shopping, I am either looking for a new bike, or looking for a new Ducati.)
