I have PX my BMW s1000RR for a 24 V4S. The BMW is rough and gives little rider enjoyment, great track tool having done may track days. The Panigale is just amazing and that V4 power and sound is superb. No comparison.

@markfenton5142 I won't deny the fact that the Panigale is probably an amazing and superior bike in regards to it's power and speed however, it is a less enjoyable bike on the streets than the S1KRR. I love having my RR for the street😌 Thanks for stopping by and commenting. Have a great day bro❤️

Constructive critique: You own a BMW S1000RR and specified all the reasons why the BMW is better (in your opinion). You even backed off the throttle because the bike wheelies (no kidding) but made no reference to the myriad of electronics that reduce wheelies to a bare minimum. I won't list any of the other negatives that you specified except to say that Ducati is a race brand and they build road bikes based on drip-down race technology and that's why they don't have a fuel gauge or cruise control, neither of which they probably even care about and nor do most Panigale riders. BMW have built a sublime sports bike for the road but the Panigale is a race bike for the road and that's why we love them. I would take Italian emotion over German efficiency every day but that is not to say that I don't admire the S1000RR because I do. I just wouldn't buy one. Thanks for the review and I hope your posterior side has recovered from the heat and the hard seat :).

I can see by your replies that you are fair minded and my comments are not meant in a negative way at all. I have a Streetfighter V4S 2023 and it's such a sublime bike but as you can see, I am a very big Ducati fan and love the brand :). BTW, please invest in gloves that will protect your hands properly in a spill:)!

@mike748golfsmith Thank you for taking the time to post a thoughtful reply! Those are all valid points you listed above. Ultimately, I just love the comfort/electronics of the BMW as opposed to the Ducati and we're all entitled to our own opinions so it's no problem if Ducati is superior overall to you. I do think it's a great bike though! I loved riding the streetfighter and the hypermotard 950; those bikes were 👌! I appreciate your consideration of my safety as well :) If you subscribed, I hope that I can make more appealing content in the future. I hope you have an amazing day!

Bike is most definitely better then the bmw, ride a 1199 or 1299 you talking about hot, but put that red beast into race mode , bike is a beast.

@ninjasupersport They get hotter? Sheesh! I will agree though, those Ducatis are definitely beast! I prefer the feel of the S1000RR but I won't deny that Ducati is putting out more power! Thanks for stopping by and have a great day!

What power mode were you in. I own a Streetfighter V4. And have ridden the V4 back.with the M1000R and RR. The BMW feels like an absolute dog in comparison in the poeer department. But you hsve ti go into the settings and place thr bime into full power mode. None of hmhe modes come with it standard set. Not even rsce or sport mode. And is a HUGE difference. So if you didnt do that, go ride another one. Lol

@charlesgutscher1923 that's a very valid point you brought up and in my lack of knowledge regarding the bike I did not know about that full power mode you brought up. The v4s I rode was in sport mode and NOT broken in so it was still in a restricted mode. Even though I have mostly negatives I say in the video, I think it's an awesome bike but it's not a 1000cc Supersport I'd like to have for the street. I really appreciate your comment and hope you have a great day!

@@MotoRetsa I don't think it's really a good street bike either tbh. They just get too hot. It's why I have the Streetfighter. But yeah the full power mode removes all the torque by gear restrictions. And the euro 5 restrictions make the bike really lean. But out on the track, the panigale comes to life.

@charlesgutscher1923 I got to ride a few other bikes from Ducati but I just haven't gotten around to posting them yet. I rode the Street fighter and loved it so I can understand your perspective on that bike!! Every other bike I rode that day was wonderful haha!
