Ducati Streetfighter V4

Ducati Malaysia telah mengumumkan pelancaran Ducati Streetfighter V4 Lamborghini yang baru. Tambahan terbaru kepada barisan Ducati ini mewakili semangat kedua-dua jenama, menggabungkan kuasa dan prestasi motosikal Ducati dengan kemewahan dan elegan yang sinonim dengan Lamborghini.

Ducati Streetfighter V4 Lamborghini – Formula Yang Tidak Disangka:
Bab kedua kerjasama sejarah ini mendedahkan Ducati Streetfighter V4 Lamborghini yang baru, sebuah motosikal yang menghormati sejarah bersama kedua-dua legenda Motor Valley di Itali ini. Diilhamkan oleh falsafah reka bentuk Lamborghini Huracán STO (Super Trofeo Omologata), Edisi Ducati Streetfighter V4 Lamborghini memaparkan livery khas dan ciri badan yang direka khas yang mencerminkan garis-garis aerodinamik yang licin pada saingannya dalam bidang automotif.

Ciri Utama:
– Reka Bentuk Yang Diilhamkan: Mengambil contoh dari Huracán STO yang ikonik, rimnya menampilkan reka bentuk yang elegan, diperkukuh lagi dengan nut pengunci titanium pada rim belakang. Streetfighter V4 Lamborghini juga mempunyai tekstur serat karbon dan penyelesaian yang sama dengan Lamborghini Huracán STO. Bagi mudguard depan, penutup underbelly, penutup sisi tangki bahan api dan penutup tempat duduk penumpang, semuanya meniru lubang udara masuk dan saluran udara pada Huracán STO. Sebagai sentuhan tambahan, tempat duduk rider kini dilapisi dengan Alcantara eksklusif.

– Enjin Kuasa: Dikuasai oleh enjin Desmosedici Stradale 1,103 cc, Edisi Ducati Streetfighter V4 Lamborghini mempunyai output kuasa yang mengagumkan sebanyak 208 hp, menggunakan teknologi desmodromik berasaskan MotoGP. Enjin Stradale kini lengkap dengan clutch kering yang diperoleh dari perlumbaan dan peredam bunyi Akrapovic yang dibuat oleh titanium dan serat karbon sebagai peralatan standard juga.

– Livery Yang Tersendiri: Edisi Ducati Streetfighter V4 Lamborghini memaparkan livery unik yang menampilkan logo STO yang ikonik dan nombor 63, mengingati tahun penubuhan Lamborghini. Kembali kepada Huracán STO, cat dan skema warna yang digunakan pada Streetfighter V4 Lamborghini Edition adalah sama seperti yang digunakan untuk kereta; warna utama yang mencolok pada bahagian kerja badan adalah “Verde Citrea”, manakala warna kontrasnya adalah “Arancio Dac”. Model edisi terhad ini melambangkan elegan dan kemampuan prestasi Itali, menawarkan pengalaman pemanduan yang tiada tandingannya.

Dennis Michael, Ketua Pegawai Operasi Ducati Malaysia, berkata: “Kami bangga bahawa dua daripada motosikal ini berada di Malaysia. Ducati Streetfighter V4 Lamborghini lebih daripada sekadar sebuah motosikal; ia adalah simbol sejarah yang kaya dan semangat bersama untuk inovasi antara Ducati dan Lamborghini. Formula yang tidak disangka ini membawa bersama yang terbaik dari kedua-dua dunia, mencipta sebuah karya yang menawan peminat dan pengumpul Ducati Malaysia kita serta menunjukkan bahawa pemilik dan peminat Ducati Malaysia kita adalah antara yang paling bersemangat di dunia.”

Semasa acara perasmian yang diadakan di Ducati Kuala Lumpur, Edisi Ducati Streetfighter V4 Lamborghini yang terhad telah diumumkan dan diserahkan secara langsung kepada pembeli pertama iaitu Datuk Nazir Hussin Akhtar Hussin.

Ducati Streetfighter V4 Lamborghini dijual pada harga RM460,900. Pengeluaran terhad memastikan eksklusiviti untuk rider yang mahukan gaya yang tiada bandingannya dan prestasi dinamik.

Ducati will kick off its 2023 Ducati World Premiere web series with a special collaboration motorcycle.

  • Ducati to unveil seven new motorcycles at the DWP 2023.
  • episode one will feature a special edition Ducati Streetfighter V4.
  • The 2023 DWP is likely a lead-up to something even bigger at EICMA 2022.

According to the official teaser of episode one titled ‘The Unexpected’, Ducati is set to unleash a special edition motorcycle created in collaboration with Lamborghini.

The teaser photo only revealed a rear shot of a motorcycle likely to be the Streetfighter V4. The tail showcased a combination of Ducati scarlet red and a shade of fluorescent green featuring the STO nameplate.

The STO acronym stands for ‘Super Trofeo Omologato’, a reference to Lamborghini’s Huracan STO. Billed as a genuine race car, the STO is a V10 supercar capable of pumping 630hp. 

Ducati and Lamborghini already worked on a special edition Diavel 1260 back in November 2020, and it is the right time for the two to work together again for 2023.

That said, the Streetfighter V4 makes the perfect model for both parties. Like the Diavel 1260 Lamborghini, the Streetfighter V4 STO will undoubtedly feature all exclusive components, including a special paint job. 

Episode one of the web series will be streamed live from the Marco Simoncelli World Circuit paddock in Misano Adriatico, where the 14th round of MotoGP 2022 will take place this weekend. 

It’s going to be a busy year for Ducati as the Italian motorcycle company has already planned to introduce seven new launches between September to November. 

  • The 2023 Ducati Streetfighter V4 will feature a similar upgrade to the 2022 Panigale V4. 
  • Notable changes include higher gear ratios, bigger fuel tanks and lighter chassis. 

Based on the latest spy shots, we believe one of the upcoming motorcycles would be an updated Ducati Streetfighter V4.

According to these spy shots, the updated Streetfighter V4 might not change much from its predecessor, but upon closer inspection, some subtle changes are applied to the new model.

Firstly, the – black-painted – tank now features similar bodywork to the updated Panigale V4 superbike that was introduced globally last year.

That said, the 2023 Streetfighter V4 will feature a bigger 17L tank as opposed to the 16L previously available on the first-gen hyper-naked motorcycle.

 Also, we expect Ducati to introduce the same engine upgrades made to the fully faired bike a year ago, including the redesigned oiling system and exhaust. As such, expect a slight increase of power for the 2023 model.

Ducati also revised the Panigale V4 gear ratios for 2022; thus, the Streetfighter V4 will likely adopt similar changes. 

It is also relevant for the updated Streetfighter V4 to get a similar chassis upgrade to the Panigale, including a slightly higher swingarm pivot that helps reduce the bike’s squat under acceleration.

Lastly, it is safe to assume that Ducati will also introduce the higher-spec Streetfighter V4 S and the top-of-the-range V4 SP.

Frankly, we thought that the Ducati Streetfighter V4 S was just too powerful for the road and too scary for inexperienced riders like us.

The V4 engine is a screamer with 205hp, yet here we are with a lighter version of the Streetfighter range, the not so subtle 2022 Ducati Streetfighter V4 SP.

Dressed in carbon fibre components, the V4 SP weighs at just 196kg, 3kg less than the Streetfighter V4 S.

The BST carbon fibre wheels are 1.4kg lighter than the forged aluminium fitted o the Streetfighter V4 S, and it also features Brembo Style R front brake callipers.

The Streetfighter V4 SP is also equipped with Öhlins Smart EC 2.0 that offers adjustable damping capabilities while on the move according to the rider’s riding style.

Nonetheless, the lighter V4 SP makes 208hp and 123Nm @ 9,500rpm from its 1,103cc Desmosedici Stradale engine. However, the SP gets slightly better treatment, thanks to the STM-EVO SBK dry clutch, which helps improve anti-hopping even in the most aggressive shift.

Other exciting features include:

  • aluminium CNC machined footpegs
  • carbon front mudguard
  • lithium-ion battery

Ducati telah pun mengumumkan tarikh bagi Ducati World Premier 2022 yang akan disiarkan secara ‘web series’ seperti edisi sebelumnya.

Terdapat enam episod DWP 2022 berlangsung bermula dengan episod pertama berjudul ‘Your Everyday Wonder’ pada 30 September ini.

Diantara enam episod tersebut, Ducati mendedahkan episod akhir bakal memperkenalkan jentera serba baharu, DesertX yang merupakan motosikal segmen adventure dengan keupayaan ‘off-road’.

Bagaimanapun, apa yang mencuri perhatian kami adalah Episod 4 DWP 2022 yang berjudul ‘A New Fighter In Town’.

Ini kerana judul tersebut berkemungkinan besar merujuk kepada Ducati Streetfighter V2 yang sebelum ini telah pun dilihat menjalani ujian jalan raya bersama Multistrada V4 Pikes Peak Edition.

Streetfighter V2 merupakan motosikal jenis naked yang diadaptasikan daripada Streetfighter V4 namun dikuasakan enjin silinder berkembar 955cc Superquadro yang sama terdapat pada Panigale V2.

Walaupun tiada pengesahan ketika ini namun bergantung pada laporan media antarabangsa, episod empat DWP 2022 pastinya bakal mengesahkan khabar angin sebelum ini.

We had the pleasure to take the Ducati Streetfighter V4 out for a few days, which you can check out for the full review below.

The so-called hyper-naked machine is one of a kind motorcycle thanks to its Panigale V4-derived powerplant that churns out more than 200hp.

However, all those power comes with a hefty price tag of RM115,900 for the base model, while the range-topping V4 S will set you back at RM145,900.

For those who want the Streetfighter V4 but are unwilling to spend that much, worry not, as we might be getting some good news from the folks at Bologna.

The latest development suggests that there could be a V2 version of the Streetfighter.

Moreover, alleged photos show what could be the Ducati Streetfighter V2 currently undergoing testing in Italy along with the Multistrada V4 Pikes Peak.

Nonetheless, if the rumours and the spy shot is somewhat true, the basic is easy to guess; strip away the fairing from the Panigale V2 and boom! You get the Streetfighter V2.

The current Panigale V2 makes around 153hp and 104Nm from its twin-cylinder 955cc Superquadro, which is still plenty for a naked version V2.

Considering the fully-faired Ducati Panigale V2 is currently available at RM109,900, the Streetfighter V2 could have a lower price point. All we have to do now is to wait until November, as the Borgo-Panigale factory might reveal the new Streetfighter at the 2021 EICMA in Milan.

Ducati Streetfighter V4 SP set for launch as 2022 model, likely with specs mirroring Panigale V4 SP.

Ducati ends the first quarter of 2021 with 33 per cent sales growth compared to the same period in 2020.

According to Ducati, the Scrambler 800 range led the sales in Q1, with the all-new Multistrada V4 is the most delivered model to customers, followed by the Streetfighter V4.

Italy confirmed its position as the primary market for Ducati with 2,354 motorcycles delivered, followed by the USA with 1,723 and Germany with 1,275 units.

“The performance in the first months of 2021 is certainly very positive. Motorcycles delivered to customers in the first quarter of the year grew not only compared to 2020, already impacted by Covid, but also compared to 2019. Even more remarkable is the size of the order portfolio (motorcycles to be delivered) at the end of the quarter, which is the best ever, with an extraordinary 93% growth compared to 2020 and +135% compared to 2019. Enthusiasts are appreciating the 2021 range, and the family of Ducatisti is expanding,” said the company CEO, Claudio Domenicali.

Despite the global pandemic, Domenicali remained positive to deliver the best to its customers worldwide.

“The global market situation is positive in the world of two wheels, while the supply and transport sectors are much more complex, with delivery delays and a shortage of various raw materials.

“This makes it difficult to satisfy all the demand from our passionate customers, but at Ducati we are strongly motivated to do everything we can to reduce the inconvenience caused by this situation.

“I want to thank all the women and men who, in Borgo Panigale and in our subsidiaries around the world, are working with great commitment in this period of high seasonality,” he added.

Finally, the 2020 Ducati Streetfighter V4 has landed here in Malaysia. Two months ago, we witnessed the unveiling of the new Ducati Panigale V4 and Panigale V2 for the local market and we seriously thought that the Streetfighter would make its appearance then. Thinking ahead, Ducati Malaysia probably doesn’t want the Streetfighter to take any limelight away from the Panigale. Good thinking. (more…)

The 2020 Ducati Streetfighter V4 has been turning heads (and emptying bank accounts) ever since it was unveiled late last year at the Ducati World Premiere 2019. Judging by the timeline and previous launches made by Ducati Malaysia in the past couple of years, the next few weeks will probably mark the arrival of the brand’s most powerful streetfighter yet. (more…)

The 2020 Ducati Streetfighter V4 was just revealed earlier this year and no one in the industry doubts its power and beauty. However, 208hp from its 1,103cc Desmosedici Stradale V4 engine might just be too powerful for some. Ducati’s solution? A smaller-capacity and more manageable Ducati Streetfighter V2 for the everyday masses. (more…)

Streetfighter V4

Selepas Ducati mencuri perhatian dunia dengan memperkenalkan Streetfighter V4, pengeluar motosikal Itali itu dikhabarkan bakal menghasilkan versi V2.

Panigale V4S

Menurut laporan MCN, Ketua Pegawai Eksekutif Ducati, Claudio Domenicali, membuat pendedahahan menarik mengenai perancangan untuk menghasilkan Ducati Streetfighter V2.

“Kami kini memiliki Panigale V2 yang menghasilkan 155hp dan menawarkan pengalaman menunggang sebuah sportbike yang tidak terlalu ekstrem.

“Jadi kami mahu menghasilkan sebuah motosikal naked dalam kategori sama,” Domenicali memberitahu MCN.

Panigale V2

Meskipun CEO Ducati itu tidak menyebut tentang menghasilkan sebuah Streetfighter V2 namun berdasarkan Streetfighter V4 yang lahir daripada Panigale V4R, kemungkinan senario sama akan berlaku terhadap Panigale V2.

Streetfighter V4

Ducati Streetfighter V2 dijangka menggunakan enjin 955cc V-Twin yang terdapat pada Panigale V2 di samping fork depan Showa boleh laras, penyerap hentakan Sachs dan kaliper brek Brembo Monoblock berkembar dan Cornering ABS.
