  1. Copydex. The sniff of champions
     
  2. Collection day for me

    First impression, fantastic ride, just wants to go. How on earth are you supposed to keep this below 6k for the first 623 miles.

  3. You don’t! 6k is from the 1299 hand book Ducati just copied and pasted from!
    It’s 8k on the v4! :)
    You'll notice the rev counter virtual limit comes in at 8k ;)

    Oh and Congrats!

    Ps.
    Ditch the clutch cover!!!!

  6. Stunning bikes, but for me the wings would have to go, even before it left the showroom.

  7. Totally disagree, the aero effect on the bikes stability is amazing! Feels like you have got a dab of back brake!
    When you have ridden a bike with them you will know what I mean. (Only talking about a bike which has them oem not aftermarket stick on jobbies)
     
  8. These look good :thinkingface:

  9. Thing is now speeders stand out so much on uk roads you cannot use or dare not use performance, I just got a French speed ticket too and I just plod along in the van, basically as a road bike what is the point? Beautiful bike yes, those wings hideous, sure they work but absolutely ruin the looks be much better been removable stick them on for trackdays, times have changed you used to be able to tonk on through the night when it’s quiet but now it makes little difference as all the cameras are still operating, sit up type bikes and scooters are big in Europe for a reason they just make more sense unfortunately, I’m a superbike type fan but nothing makes sense for them on the road anymore, other than the breakfast clubs if they still operate.

  10. The Panigale V4 is a fantastic looking bike and I'm envious of those that have one.
    I sold my gorgeous Panigale 959 following three great seasons of ownership and 17,000kms.
    I have two bikes and that's my limit. I need something that can ride two-up on occasion.
    The Pani was a single seater and the Monster is not much better. However, I have to pick what makes sense.
    I'm not going to the track enough to justify keeping the Panigale and it's not that great a "street" bike given the dismal state of our road conditions and speeding violations. More power to those that can afford many rides. Wish I was one of them.
     
  11. They look awesome. I also like the asymmetric rear wings. Im guessing that layout is for a right hand circuit?
     
  12. I disagree, you would have to ride the same bike with and without them to make that statement.

  13. I'm sure they make a huge difference in the A478.
