V4 Panigale V4 Already Crashed

My stage one Italian translation skills with the help of google say there's no info there other than that it is in France.

 

My translation skills are about as good as Uncle Albert’s German.

 

So if I read that correctly, the bike was dropped from a second story floor onto the ground floor in a French dealers. . Andy

 

Oh?! I thought that was some one making jokes!! There was mention of it being baptized by a Gorilla but I think Gorilla Baptisims are covered in chapter five of my First Steps in Italian book.

 

just tried to uncover more without luck, I guess the truth will emerge eventually.

 

you'd feel a little sorry for anyone who bought a new bike and thrashed it. The fact its the new "pork4" makes no difference.

if the pics made it from the dealer to the web ( without consent of the owner ) , id be rightly p*ssed if it were me.

 

I would say most of the first bikes being delivered are Demo bikes, so no owner to be p*ssed.

 

Wasn't a MCN test with Everton riding it, was it?

 

I know someone wants the engine and auxiliaries for a supermotard project... He put on his wish list for a V4 supermotard... I said just wait for the written off V4's...

 

I had hoped a crashed one may make it look better, sadly even in that state it still looks shite.

 

Is it because its the left hand drive version?

 

and another...

 

2 for 1 there.

Wonder who gets those two delivered after the factory buffs out the scratches and resets the clocks

 

Read the explanation from the guy that wrecked the bike on the video above, rider runs deep then turns tight into apex, something like that.
Ducati mechanics probably love those test days.

 

youre only as good as the guy who knocks you off

 

As someone pointed out, 'never seen as many different lines into 1 corner' looking back at the video, it was a fair point and quite funny
