Ridiculous price for an oil change...all that other "check check check BS? Come ON! I mean seriously? An oil change plus a few minutes checking stuff ....maybe a chain adjustment just a pisser
AMG was not producing their Diavel. Ducati made them on the standard production line with the special bits and of course AMG badges. You can buy these used all day for under $20k if you can find one. Rare (but far from rarest), and semi-collectible. Not sure anyone would say the "most" collectible but to each his own.
dude, it's a beautiful bike, but much more fun when riding. all the discomforts are cuz you are a noob. learn proper body position, riding skills. use your lower body instead of your upper. dont't be a squid. can you tell I'm just jealous? hahahah good luck
Tbh you’re so right lol the longer I’ve had this bike the better it’s gotten! I’ve done almost 17,000km now and I’m way more comfortable and super addicted
My man… stop leaning on your bars. Build your leg and core strength and hold yourself up from there. Aside from hurting your wrists, you are giving the bike unnecessary/potentially unwanted inputs. Unless you’re breaking hard from 100+mph down to like sub 40 or something (like for a curve on the track) you should have zero weight on your wrists and arms. Let your hands “rest” on the bars and don’t lock your arms. You’ll be more comfortable for longer and you’ll probably find your bike fights you a lot less. I’m almost 45 with back and shoulder issues and I’m never uncomfortable on any motorcycle for ergonomic reasons. I know this is an old video but I hope that’s helpful. Ride safe. 🤙🏼
Yes you nailed this ! Since this video I’ve gotten way more comfortable with the riding position and done days of 10+ hours of riding with not bad at all soreness. Core strength was for sure the key for me!
Hey, I’m 38 years old and love this bike. I’m doing my safety course next week and not sure if I should buy this as my first bike and just stay on wet mode for a year or two. I’m not looking to do anything crazy but I keep hearing people saying that you need to start with a crappy little bike
I’ve ridden for 20 years. And I still track on wet mode. Our track is too far so I can only go once or twice a year. I’m not trying to be the best, I’d rather not crash. If you’re comfy enough then just step it up. I slipped on a wet spot loading my bike on my trailer on my V4s. There went $8k…
I actually have a video coming soon on this ! The Panigale for sure could be used as a beginner bike however insurance costs and the beautiful fairings make it a bit of an intermediate bike ! Not too bad to ride but for sure hurts if you drop it !
is changing the oil and checking bolts not something the owner can do without voiding a warranty?, I mean you should be doing that anyway especially on brand new bike
Congratulations and welcome to duca family:) my dream is panigale and I hope I will buy it soon, however I’m an owner of Ducati 848 evo and I know everything about heat 😂 but, this vibrations sounds of L twin and all that heat makes Ducati different from all other bikes out there
Great video. I like your camera presence, as well as the information you share. I have subscribed and look forward to your future videos, as well as checking out your back catalog.
Exactly my thought when I heard him saying his weight on the wrists at low speed… one of the very first lessons the riding school I went to taught was “SQUEEZE THE TANK”… most of your weight should be supported by your core muscle, especially at low speed. ✊🏼✌🏼
Heat pouring out of exhausts isn't a Ducati problem; it's a catalytic converter problem. The catalytic converter requires very high temperatures to function effectively, so every bike with one cooks whatever body part is closest to it.
Great to see Canadians doing bike videos! I am looking at possibly going from my Aprilia RS660 to V2, one question i have is if anyone can give me a general idea of passenger comfort? My wife likes the RS 660. The passenger seat is decently comfortable we can get an hour or two in. Has anyone had someone on the back for any length and what were their thoughts? My wife is really tiny, 5' and 100 lbs if that will make any difference. Anyone's thoughts would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks for watching!!! Yes I'm thinking of expanding to more bike content! Let me know if you have any ideas for videos. To be honest I haven't had anyone at all on the back of the Panigale yet! I've sort of been avoiding it but maybe I'll do a video on that!
Yea great question! I’m 6 foot 1 and the bike is perfect for me. I’m very comfortable even at full tuck. My brother is 6 foot 4 and he’s still okay on it for the most part. I think any taller than that and it might get uncomfortable !
Sorry for my late reply! They definitely gave me a really good deal, however I think it usually runs between $500 and $1000 depending on the bike! I’m super happy with it !
As a previous Ducati owner I have to admit that servicing your bike at the dealership is a total rip off. I did most of the work on the bike myself which saved me a ton of money.
i dont have the money yet ! but my question is ! is it okay to go for this bike as a first bike ? and normaly how much money do i need to spend on it every year ? ( imagine just normal use im a calm driver )
what a coincidence. I have a 2017 GS L10 as my daily. Currently looking to replace it with a GS-F, but thatÄs wuite difficult with only 26 units ever sold in Germany . The 2014 LS is an amazing though. Love your taste in cars and bikes :D
Great question ! I'm 6 foot 1 and my longest day of riding was probably 5 or 6 hours this summer. It wasn't bad for long ride at all. At highway speeds the vibration is pretty smooth however if it was slow speed city driving for sure it would have been uncomfortable
Hey brother! Was looking into getting a sports/track bike and this was one of the few ones I’ve looked into, specially the black one. Thanks for the review!
@@X11CHASEwhose gonna use a supra for practicality? Both are toys man, one is just massively more expensive and iconic yeah, it porbably will rise in value if he keeps it in proper condition.
@@rns6889I don't follow his channel but if he bought the Supra 10 years ago it was probably cheaper than the Bugatti and it's now worth double or more so it's a nice investment that he gets to enjoy at weekends too.
Not much. Mostly just Ducati performance parts. Handgrips, engine cover, tank grips. I'm in Singapore. So its best to keep it stock unless its fully utilise for track in Malaysia. I had a smaller front plate sticker. Got fine $100 bucks for it less than 6 month of owning the bike @@ADUSTYLIFE So yea.. Perhaps I could get away with a tail tidy.
Yea so the kit that I had the dealer install has the signals as part of it. The rear ones are cool because they actually are sequential. The fronts are mounted just along side the body near the handlebars. Both are actually pretty bright and visibile surprisingly!
hello. In your other video you mention that you did a special lacquer or varnish like Ducati. Can you give me any more details, name or information? I'm in Europe
Yes! It's not a varnish or any type of liquid. However it's called PPF (Paint Protective Film) it's kind of like a screen protector that you would put on your phone, however it goes over all of the painted areas of your bike. It really helps protect from any physical objects hitting it (rocks,sand,dirt). Hope this helps!
Great video, what bikes did you own before this one? I'm loving the newest black livery for the V2 and strongly considering selling my MV Agusta F3 for one. Rizoma mirrors look great also, wish they'd make them automated someday
Thanks for watching!! So my most recent bike before the Ducati was a Triumph Street Triple R 675. I loved that bike, however I wanted something that was better at highway speeds. Before that I had a SV650s and when I was 16 I had a Honda Rebel lol! The new Black V2 does look really nice! How has your F3 been?! I've never seen one in person or ever heard any feedback on how those are!
@@ADUSTYLIFE I love the F3, handles like a dream but since its the 675 could use a tad more power and some of the tech is getting dated. Have read about numerous build quality issues etc but haven't had any with mine. Only thing that keeps me from jumping to the Ducati V2/V4 is the heat...not sure I want to deal with that during warmer days. Is the near burning worth it??
