Hi there !!! Yes mine is a aluminium nut 👍 and NO ISSUES what so ever probably would of bought the titanium one if I could of got it red but at the time of purchase all the titanium ones were self colour ie silver and I wanted red 😂👍
@@lazerlips8834 thanks for the reply. Agree red looks awesome (would match my bike, set against black wheels) but Titanium seems to be a rarity so will probably go for Aluminium like you and be careful with the torque wrench.
Yeah it’s a small change but big affect 👍 I’m currently looking for a second front wheel to powder coat white to see what that looks like also 😂 I don’t like to b the same as most folks 😂😂😂
thanks very much for this, really useful and interesting. would love to se a video on general cleaning and maintenance too! im new to the V2 and would love to get to a point where I keep it looking as good as you do without over doing it with chemicals and surfactants!
Hi, I'm making the first adjustment on my V2; what distance do you use in yours for the chain and the swing-arm? Also, do you know if you measure in front of the bolt or in the back?
If was buying a spare set I’d just buy any to b fair 👍👍 won’t really make a difference because you’ll only b running a tyre say up to a 190/60/17 and it will fit both a 5.5 or a 6.0 rim 👍👍👍 not sure what part of the world ya live in but hear in uk 5.5inch rims a hard to find so nearly every one I know just runs a 6.0 👍👍 add the fact if you buy a brand new set of rims ie magnesium/forged/carbon they will come as standard 6.0 even if you state panigale V2 👍
You will probably struggle to fit a 200 on with the standard exhaust system !!!! But everything else should be fine, that being said a 190/60/17 should b all the cornering grip you’ll ever need 👍👍 unless your a serious track day rider/racer
The difference is almost nothing, all depends on the tire size I guess, I’m thinking to get 6 inch wheel and install 190/55/17 or just buy 190/50/17 and install on my stock rim 5.5 🤔, any suggestions ?
Hi there A 190 will definitely go on a 5.5 rim no problems at all 👍 as for making it even I’m not sure what you mean ???? This I can tell you, if you put a 190-55-17 on the only thing you notice is the flick ability of the bike will b slower it’ll feel lazier to go from side to side so I can only imagine that a 50 section will fell even more so 👍 it depends how you using your bike really if your doing loads of say motorway miles a 50 will b extremely stable but if your wanting to do twisties the bike will feel mega lazy to go from side to side👍👍 hope this helps you 👍👍
Hi there There is no doubt that the v2 is very heavy on the wrist 👎 that being said I’ve been asked a lot the same question, and it really depends on your rides , I’ve found that short stop n go stuff you’ll definitely feel it way more, but if your doing longer rides with higher speeds it’s fine. Here in the uk and where I live and ride it’s the norm to set off about 10 on a morn and not get back home till 6 in the evening and do a full day out on the bike only really stopping for fuel every couple of hours , the speeds are at a level where the wind takes it from your wrists and I personally have never had an issue, but let say I use it to commute or do city stuff where it’s all stop stat then it becomes way more noticeable on the wrists and get uncomfortable. Hope this helps 👍
I used to when I first got the bike and was running it in but it was only ever 2nd to 1st on the down shift, but also in that time say the first 300 mile I had to adjust the gear lever position to suit my foot position wile riding and had no problems after that 👍 so I just put the false N down to that, also after 1st service and the software update it seemed to get smoother “ not sure if that was just in my head like 😂”
You could have use grip glue to put them on that acts like a lube to slide the grip on then it drys in 8hrs and they are never moving. Grip glue is what most manufacturers recommend even with stock grips idk about ducati I haven’t taken mine off yet.
Hi there In order to use the CRG’s you have to remove factory bar ends and buy the CRG ones too “you’ll need the 7/8ths ones” bar ends that is and then the mirrors are a perfect fit 👍👍👍
200/55/17 no issue, same with 200/60/17 no issue, just make sure your get the Carbon Ducati Performance Rear Hugger, currently running on my V2 200/55/17
This is helpful because I’m considering buying carbon wheels for my SFV2 but I wanted to size up the back wheel to fit a Panigale V4 when I eventually get it.
Hi there No I haven’t I’m a road rider and don’t really have any interest in track days👎 I have rode on track before in my younger days and not gona lie I did enjoy it , but these days I’m more about jumping on the bike and doing days out on the roads n twisties 👍👍
Thanks for your kind words 👍 , the bike seems to get mixed opinions 😂😂 some like it and some say it just looks odd 😂😂 but I guess that’s the beauty of owning and expressing what appeals to me 😬👍
Yes you could no problem at all 👍👍👍 the bsb Ducati tri options cup series runs them and goes back n forth depending on tracks between 190/60 and 180/60 👍👍
Hey brother, Im considering this bike and just realized from a comment of yours on another video that we are pretty much the same height. How are the ergonomics for you on this bike? I do plan on putting around town/to the gym on this thing. Never longer than 45 mins or so. What do you think? Thanks!
Wey up buddy sorry for the long delay in reply I’ve been away for the w-end on the drink 😂😂 the best way I can answer your question is for a bike to potter around town on it’s a pain in the arse 😂 the engine is lumpy under 4K revs and your always slipping or pulling the clutch in at slow speeds , not sure where you are in the world but even here in the uk during summer month if I only ware jeans n jacket to get somewhere if I was traffic light to traffic light I wouldn’t recommend the bike heats up very quickly and the fan will almost b running none stop 🙈 and your right inner thigh will get uncomfortable quick 🙈 I tend not to use mine for any commuting reall just for long rides out hence always have me leathers on and always moving quickly 👍👍👍 then as far as I’m concerned it’s the best bike I’ve owned 👍👍👍 so the shot answer is it’s heavy on ya wrists, cooks ya inside leg, and is pain in the arse to drive slow round town 🙈 get out in the mountains/dales with leathers on and it’s best bike in the world 😬😬👍
Hi there , yes I know about vutlurbike and there products bud 😬👍 check out my other vids I’ve uploaded about 12 or so and in one of them I’m sure which one I actually use one of there stickers and explain what I don’t like about another sticker I also got 👍 hence using knifeless tape from 3m and just ordinary vinyl 😬👍 if and when I get the rear seat cowl I’m going to do my own design using same technique 😬👍
@@lazerlips8834 I saw the other video and funny, I had the same issue with that exact style for my V4. Their stuff could be great if they just use a bit more quality product and invest in the R&D department.
Thank You!!! I'm trying to figure out whether the V2 or the V4. I don't want to be under powered and the V4 seems Over Powered. Everyone talks trash about it not being a real Liter bike. But it makes as much power as my 2014 GSXR1000. Which honestly has plenty of, border line too much, power when putting down in the curbs with no rider Aids
@@lazerlips8834 I have the Akrapovic exhaust but it sounds like the 190 is the go. I do alot of highway kms and the bigger rear is better for stability at high speed I think. I run a 200 on my 2015 Yamaha R1M which was standard on that but also on my 2016 Kawasaki ZX-10R, I did try it on my 2000 Honda VTR 1000 SP-1 but went back to a 190 purely because of the room or lack of it for the 200
@@ashinoz1 yeah defo the way to go if you do a load of highway mile I’d run a 190/55 or even a 50 if it’s pure stability your looking for 👍👍👍👍 my riding is all mountains and dale’s that’s just all tight twisty roads I can do about 300 miles on a Sunday and not even see a duel carrage way / motor way 😂😂😂😂 with you running the Akra system I would ask a dealer ship the next time your there for serve or anything to try a v4 wheel on for you and see if it dose rub the inside of swimming arm 👍 if ya don’t ask you never know eh ?????
That’s the beauty of customisation/mods everybody has there own take on what they like n dislike and gan leave a bike standard or mod away till there hearts content 😂😂😂😂
With a 100k plus price tag on it, i'm sticking with the bicycle, keeps me looking and feeling good. Didn't have that distinctive "Duke" sound to it. Might of sounded better riding but u were more interested in discussing yourself. pity
