The 2025 Ducati Streetfighter V4: Hit or Miss? & Why does the USA get less horsepower? 🤔

[@guzziman]

Because it is a Ducati it looks good and sexy even with double sided swingarm, but not as good as sexy as the 2024 model, in my opinion at least, and the extra stiffness, lets be honest 90% of the riders would not even know what it means and what it suppose to feel like... Great work as usual...

[@DucatiDiaries]

Thanks brother. Yeah but actually mine in the video had custom paint, blacked out exhaust, Panigale cowl, etc. So mine looked much better than stock. I miss that bike!

[@guzziman]

@ I regret every Ducati or Guzzi I sold … every single one ….

[@shadimagdy8196]

I think the new street fighter v4s is my favourite model of ducati line-up 2025. Flawless with zero compromises. King of the super nakeds for sure!

[@DucatiDiaries]

Yeah really my only gripe is it's less horsepower and torque for us here in the States (205 hp). Otherwise, it's flawless!

[@sliqindustries4782]

don’t forget the gearing is different as well i don’t think that drop in torque will be that noticeable at least i hope not. I have a 22 v4s, definitely time for an upgrade

[@DucatiDiaries]

I can't wait to try it out myself. I love the platform, although the Diavel is my favorite and my current bike.

[@Lethal_Venom]

Such a great styled bike. You can thank MotoGP for the winglets.

[@DucatiDiaries]

Love the winglets. I remember when Kawasaki came out with them years back and I was drooling. :D

[@Lethal_Venom]

@ they do look good!

[@MatrixDesigner85]

I like the previous gen better, it would be cool if Ducati had options for swing arm and winglets. The tech is there, but that’s it.

[@davidebbs2797]

whoever on the road thought at 160+ mph I need more downforce on a naked bike. Do know as soon as you up-spec the exhaust on the 25 you lose the cruise control option. Anyway I'm getting a runout 24 SV4S and saving a fair quid ✌😃

[@DucatiDiaries]

Yeah you can't go wrong with either model. Especially if you get the bike properly tuned with the exhaust to free up all the Panigale power.

[@BlakeLarsen3]

how reliable are today's Ducati's for the people who ride 10k+ miles per year? Is it realistic to assume regular service intervals will keep the bike out of the shop for other random issues? Or is this a brand that is preferred to be ridden seldomly on the weekends, like a Ferrari owner for instance. In other words, does it not make sense to own a Ducati as a daily motorcycle? I'd assume the bike is just not reliable enough to keep up with the daily thrashing, so it's likely to encounter more issues. If I'm wrong, that would be awesome because I've always wanted a Ducati, but I don't like when things just randomly break and I can't ride for however long it's in the shop.

[@Jutamayo]

So once you tune it and install an exhaust it will completely Change it

[@auroraborealis2393]

No mention of a fuel gauge? or cruise control?

[@DucatiDiaries]

@@auroraborealis2393 I haven't seen that info released yet. I'll make another video as soon as I find out. I agree though, the bike should have at least a fuel gauge. I hated that on my SF.

[@4KITTIES-ADV]

Cruise control is an option at 237 GBP, I have sent my spec to my Ducati and ordered it 😀 My M1000R has it included as standard, hell for 27,000 plus euros it should make my dinner and clean the dishes 😂

[@Patriot_316]

Nice 👍🏻

[@DucatiDiaries]

Thanks brother.

[@4KITTIES-ADV]

In reference to the HP question 205 vs 214. UK HP is different from EU CV or PS, so 214 in Europe, most likely in cv, will be 210 in UK HP. How the US gets 205, no idea 🤷 as a guess EPA or DOT restrictions, UK & Europe focus more on emissions & decibels although EU will start looking at torque & horsepower restrictions in future regulations because they are c*nts 😢😮

[@DucatiDiaries]

Hopefully with Trump in office, this global warming nonsense will take a back seat to common sense and we can have our toys again. :o)

[@gsfbryant7978]

Thus Matthew 7:24 be adopted in this?

[@user-rh1bf5wd2y]

Great video! I think for your next video, you should consider talking about the woke Fallout: New Vegas mod called Fallout: Ashfall. Allout Monte and Krimson Graey exposed AshfallDude as a transgender bisexual who wanted to inject their personal politics and add a pronoun feature in an otherwise great Fallout: New Vegas mod.

[@robertjakicic5878]

Who ever is designing Ducati bikes deserves a huge pay increase and with 214 HP on tap that's more juice then most car's and SUVs on the road today.

[@DucatiDiaries]

The funny thing is, I think if I had 300 hp, I'd probably want 350.😂
