2024 Ducati Panigale V4 SP2

Chassis

• CARBON FIBER RIMS: To further enhance the performance on the track and the dynamic qualities of the Panigale V4, the "SP2" version is equipped with high-quality 5-split spoke carbon wheels, 3.1 lb lighter than the aluminum forged ones of the Panigale V4 S. The carbon rims guarantee a significant reduction in inertia (-26% at the front, -46% at the rear) to the benefit of agility, lightness in direction changes and greater ease in closing the curves. *Bike specifications and equipment may vary from market to market. Please refer to your local dealer for further information
• BRAKING SYSTEM: The Panigale V4 SP2 is also equipped with exclusive Brembo Stylema R® front brake calipers, which guarantee high braking power combined with exceptional consistency of performance even during a lengthy timed session without changes to the travel of the brake lever. The calipers are operated by a Brembo MCS (Multiple Click System) radial pump that allows you to adjust the wheelbase quickly and easily on three configurations to customize the braking feeling. The front brake lever is equipped with a “remote adjuster” device, which allows you to adjust its position by acting on a knob on the left grip, as is the case on racing bikes. Finally, on the "SP2" version the brake and clutch levers are milled at the ends to reduce air resistance. *Bike specifications and equipment may vary from market to market.

• RIZOMA FOOTPEGS: Another essential element that characterizes the Panigale V4 SP2 is the equipment with Rizoma footpegs in anodized aluminum with carbon fiber heel guards. These racing footpegs offer great grip for the boots, essential for riding at the limit on the circuit, further contributing to a completely redesigned ergonomics in 2022 with the new tank and saddle shapes, designed to improve control and make the most of the performance of the Panigale V4 both on the flying lap and during a prolonged session.
• SUSPENSION: The suspension system features an electronically controlled 125 mm travel Öhlins NPX25 / 30 pressurized fork at the front that uses a pressurized cartridge damping system derived from that of racing forks. This fork, in combination with the Öhlins TTX36 shock absorber and with the electronic steering damper, also Öhlins, forms the second generation of the Smart EC 2.0 system characterized by OBTI (Objective Based Tuning Interface) logic which, working "by objectives" and not by clicks, allows the rider a much more intuitive management than traditional systems.

Electronics Package

• TFT TRACK EVO: All the electronic parameters of the bike can be clearly visualized thanks to the dashboard and to the "Track Evo" display mode, derived from the one used in MotoGP. In this screen, the tachometer moves on a horizontal scale positioned in the highest part of the instrument, or the most visible, and the indication of the gear engaged is in the center of the screen. In the right area of ​​the display there are four different colored sectors, each dedicated to an electronic control (DTC, DWC, DSC, EBC). These sectors light up individually when the electronics are working on a certain parameter, remaining on for the time necessary for the rider to identify which indicator is activated. This signaling mode facilitates the rider’s task in understanding the control that has worked to allow him to intervene in a more precise and timely way on the choice of optimal level and to achieve better performance more quickly. The left sector completes the information with the chronometer, number of laps completed and speed.
• DUCATI DATA ANALYZER WITH GPS: On the "SP2" version is standard the GPS module that allows the activation of the automatic Lap Time function, which provides instant indication of two split times of the track on which you are turning. In addition, loading the Ducati Performance Slick Software (available as an accessory) provides Ducati Traction Control curves specifically developed for slick and rain tires and activates the ability to store the coordinates of five different tracks, as well as five additional fully customizable Riding Modes. Finally, thanks to the Ducati Data Analyzer, standard on the SP2, it is possible to carry out an in-depth analysis of all performance data.
• ELECTRONIC CONTROL: The Panigale V4 SP2 is equipped with an electronic package of the latest generation based on the use of a 6-axis inertial platform that can instantly detect the roll, yaw and pitch angle of the bike in space. The electronic package includes controls that manage all phases of driving; whose operating parameters are linked by default to the 4 Riding Modes (Race A, Race B, Sport, Street). ABS Cornering EVO, Ducati Traction Control (DTC) EVO 3, Ducati Slide Control (DSC), Ducati Wheelie Control (DWC) EVO, Ducati Power Launch (DPL), Ducati Quick Shift up / down (DQS) EVO 2, Engine Brake Control (EBC) EVO, Ducati Electronic Suspension (DES) EVO

Engine

• DESMOSEDICI STRADALE: The heart of the Panigale V4 SP2 is the 1,103 cc Desmosedici Stradale of MotoGP origin: a V4 with counter-rotating crankshaft equipped with a lot of torque from low revs and capable of expressing the racing soul of the bike on the track. For 2022, the Desmosedici Stradale has improved with the introduction of dedicated technical elements, which have made it possible to increase power and improve throttle response. Thanks to these interventions and a new dedicated mapping. To capitalize on the full potential of this engine, dedicated gear-by-gear torque curves and four different Power Modes (Full, High, Medium, Low) have been developed. The Full and Low configurations are newly developed, while the High and Medium configurations use a new strategy. *Bike specifications and equipment may vary from market to market.

• STM-EVO SBK DRY CLUTCH: The link with the bikes that race in the Superbike World Championship is even more evident in the “SP2” version of the Panigale V4. In fact, to the more “track-oriented” gearbox already presented on the Panigale V4 2022, this bike adds the lightened final drive with 520 chain and the STM-EVO SBK dry clutch.

Features

• LIVERY: The Panigale V4 SP2 is characterized by the special "Winter Test" livery, in which the matt black of the fairings is combined with the matt carbon finish of the rims and wings, contrasting with the bright red accents and the brilliance of the exposed brushed aluminum tank. The wings with double profile design are embellished with the Italian flag which also appears on the official Panigale V4 R SBK. The lower part of the fairing is distinguished by the presence of the Ducati Corse logo in the area of ​​the new hot air extractors and by a red detail bearing the name of the bike, also present on the black saddle in double material.

• CHASSIS: The chassis of the Panigale V4 SP2 includes an aluminum front frame that uses the Desmosedici Stradale as a stressed element. The aluminum swingarm and the seat post in shell-cast aluminum are directly connected to the engine. The pivot of the swingarm is positioned in such a way as to increase the anti-squat effect, which is the reduction of the sinking of the rear when exiting corners and when reopening the throttle, thus stabilizing the bike in acceleration. The suspension system features an electronically controlled 125 mm travel Öhlins NPX25 / 30 pressurized fork at the front that uses a pressurized cartridge damping system derived from that of racing forks.
