Panigale V4 S

JS Films, the star of a popular online show, has caused quite a stir with his latest video featuring his Ducati Panigale V4 S.

  • The Ducati Panigale V4 S makes 210hp and 123Nm. 
  • Powering the Panigale V4 S is the powerful 1,103 cc Desmodromic 90° V4 engine.

In the video, JS starts up his bike, and viewers are treated to the iconic sound of the powerful Ducati V4 engine. However, the real surprise comes when JS proceeds to cook an egg on the hot frame of his bike!

In the video, JS demonstrates just how hot the area above the fairing of his bike can get by placing a piece of foil over it and then cracking an egg onto it. The heat emanating from the bike is enough to cook the egg, and viewers can see the yolk slowly starting to solidify.

The video has quickly gone viral, with many viewers amazed at the ingenuity of JS and his team. Some have even tried replicating the stunt themselves, with varying degrees of success.

While some may see the video as a fun and quirky way to showcase the power of the Ducati V4 engine, others have raised concerns about the potential danger of cooking food on a hot motorcycle. Experts caution that the heat from the bike could potentially lead to foodborne illness, and advise against trying to replicate the stunt at home.

Regardless of the controversy, JS’s video has certainly captured the attention of the online community, and serves as a testament to the creativity and ingenuity of content creators in the digital age.

Ducati Malaysia dengan rasminya melancarkan Ducati Panigale V4 2022 untuk pasaran tempatan.

Tampil dengan dua varian, Panigale V4 dan V4 S kedua-duanya ditawarkan pada harga RM148,900 dan RM188,900.

Bagi tahun 2022, terdapat beberapa penambahbaikan terbaru dilaksanakan terutamanya di bahagian enjin, chasis, panel badan dan pakej elektronik.

Pertamanya, bahagian panel badan kini telah dinaik taraf dengan pertambahan corong udara bagi memperbaiki tahap kepanasan enjin. Bukan itu sahaja, corong udara di bahawa sisi juga bertujuan menyejukkan quickshifter.

Sementara itu, Ducati juga menaik taraf nisbah gear juga telah diperkemas dengan gear 1, 2 dan 6 kini tampil dengan nisbah lebih panjang berbanding model 2021.

Nisbah gear yang lebih panjang itu bertujuan memastikan aliran kuasa enjin 1103cc V4 itu lebih terkawal terutamanya di RPM rendah.

Pada masa sama, enjin V4 itu kini menawarkan 215.5hp berbanding 214hp pada model terdahulu.

Namun jika mempunyai bajet lebih, pengguna boleh menaik taraf ke ekzos Akrapovic (full system) yang boleh meningkatkan kuasa kepada 225hp disamping 5kg lebih ringan berbanding ekzos standard.

Peningkatan kuasa itu berlaku disebabkan naik taraf yang dilakukan pada bahagian ‘underslung exhaust’ yang kini 18 peratus lebih besar di samping sistem penyejukan yang lebih efisien.

Sementara itu, bahagian tangki kini menawarkan kapasiti 17L naik 1L berbanding model sebelumnya. Ducati juga telah mereka semula bahagian tangki bagi memastikan ‘rider’ boleh meletakkan lengan di bahagian sisi tangki dengan lebih baik terutamanya ketika mengambil selekoh.

Bahagian kaki juga kini boleh mencengkam bahagian bawah tangki dengan lebih baik sewaktu melalukan brek mengejut bagi memastikan jentera masih berada dalam kawalan.

Ciri lain yang turut dipertingkat adalah rekaan winglet yang walaupun tampil lebih kecil namun masih lagi menghasilkan ‘downforce’ 37kg pada kelajuan 300km/j.

Ducati Panigale V4 S 2022 juga dinaik taraf dengan fork depan Ohlins NPX 25/30 boleh laras secara elektronik.

Fork depan itu juga menawarkan jarak pergerakan 5mm lebih panjang menjadi 125mm berbanding sebelum ini.

Pada masa sama, paparan skrin TFT juga telah direka semual dan kini hadir dengan dua lampu pertukaran gear LED di bahagian atas.

Bagi yang berminat untuk melihat Ducati Panigale V4 S dengan lebih dekat, diminta hadir ke pusat pameran Ducati Malaysia di Petaling Jaya.

Ducati Malaysia has officially launched the 2022 Panigale V4 superbike for the local market.

  • The 2022 Panigale V4 get a host of aerodynamic and electronic upgrades.
  • the new electronic package ensures the Panigale V4 is even friendlier to ride. 

Available in two trims, the base V4 is priced at RM148,900 while the top of the range V4 S can be yours for RM188,900.

The Borgo Panigale factory has made numerous improvements for the Panigale V4, aimed at refining the riding ergonomics and power.

Visually, the 2022 Panigale V4 gets a redesigned winglet, and despite appearing smaller, it produces the same 30kg of downforce at 270km/h.
Ducati also improves the engine heat distribution by revamping the belly pan, which now features two air slots on either side and a series of air slits at the bottom.
Despite the minimal changes, the improved cooling efficiency pushes the Desmosedici Stradale peak power to 215.5hp @ 13,00rpm and 123.6Nm @ 9,500rpm.
Other major changes include getting the SBK gearbox from the Panigale V4 R, whereby its first, second and sixth gear is made taller to allow for better gear transition. The new transmission also helps the Panigale V4 to achieve an extra 5km/h top speed than the 2021 Panigale V4.
Nonetheless, replacing the stock exhaust with a full-system Akrapovic race exhaust will help bump the peak power to 225hp and reduce the weight by 5kg to 190.5kg from its 195.5kg curb weight.
The new Panigale V4 also gets a 5mm longer suspension travel front fork which is said to help improve the front-end feel.
Meanwhile, the Öhlins semi-active suspension available on the 2022 Ducati Panigale V4 S now adopts Öhlins NPX 25/30 pressurized fork, which is fitted into the Öhlins Smart EC 2.0 event-based electronic control system.
The pressurized system managed the compression in the left leg of the fork with a 25mm piston, while a 30mm piston managed the extension in the right leg.
The swingarm pivot was also raised by 4mm to increase the anti-squat effect during acceleration.
Interestingly, to help the rider’s ergonomic, Ducati has made big changes to the fuel tank shape and material to allow riders to have better grip during braking and turning.
Ducati has also restyled the 5″ TFT display that now features two LED shifter lights at the top.

Most importantly, the 2022 Panigale V4 continues to offer 6-axis IMU, which include:

  • cornering ABS
  • traction control
  • slide control
  • wheelie control
  • engine brake control
  • up/down quickshifter
  • brake-to-slide feature

For those interested, you can take a closer look at the 2022 Ducati Panigale V4 and V4 S at Ducati Malaysia showroom located in Petaling Jaya.

Ducati has officially updated the Panigale V4 range with more power and refined electronics for 2023.

  • Gets new electronic package including Ducati Engine Brake Control EVO 2.
  • New Ducati quick shifter system and extra horsepower.

The Panigale V4 and V4 S have received much attention since its introduction in 2019. Mainly for their MotoGP-derived engine and electronic package.

Despite the significant upgrade compared to its previous twin-cylinder Panigales, the V4 and V4 S continue to run on the same chassis design.

Nevertheless, Ducati has carried out a series of updates for the 2023 Panigale V4 and V4 S.

2023 Ducati Panigale V4

According to the Borgo Panigale factory, the V4 and V4 S get a new Ducati Corse-derived electronic package that helps to improve comfort, precision and performance.

The 2023 Panigale V4 and V4 S are now equipped with new Ducati Engine Brake Control EVO 2 software, a brand-new Ducati Quick Shift and further refinements for Ducati Traction Control and Ride-by-Wire system.

In addition, Ducati also improved engine heat management with a new cooling fan control strategy.

Also, the V4 engine now makes 215.5 horsepower, with the 1st, 2nd and 6th gear adjusted for a longer ratio.

Ducati also improved the torque management, which should now allow for a refined feel during the first touch of the throttle.

For those who just purchased the 2022 model, worry not, as the aforementioned updates can also be applied to the 2022 Panigale V4 and V4 SP.

  • The 2020 Ducati Panigale V4 and 2020 Ducati Panigale V4 S were also updated.

  • They were revealed at the Ducati World Premiere.

  • Outwardly, they look like the Panigale V4 R.

More on Ducati; this was why they chose to debut new bikes away from EICMA because there are so many all at once. Included in the Ducati World Premiere were the 2020 Ducati Panigale V4 and 2020 Ducati Panigale V4 S.

The updates were aimed at moving the two bikes a little closer to the WorldSBK homologation Panigale V4 R model, but of course, the R still has more race-ready components.

First and foremost, they gain the V4 R’s winglets and fairing, complete with gills. The fairing is also wider along with a taller windscreen to provide the rider with more wind protection. Those winglets really work, and provide 30 kg of downforce at 270 km/h — the same figures as the R’s. The downforce they provide allows the rider to open the throttle earlier and keep on the gas while accelerating as wheelies are kept in check without having the anti-wheelie electronics cutting in. Ducati claims they obtained a 2.43m advantage over the 2019 model from the last corner to the finish line at Jerez.

The front of the frame was also made less stiff to provide more feedback. Better feedback equals better confidence. Additionally, the centre of gravity was moved 5 mm higher for better turning leverage.

Lastly, the already excellent traction control strategy was upgraded to DTC EVO 2, as per the new Streetfighter V4 and Panigale V2.

Ducati also released the prices. The Panigale V4 costs € 23,490 and the Panigale V4 S costs € 28,790. That marks a € 500 increase for both bikes.
