Ducati Panigale V2 long term review 

Thank you!

Thanks!🤟

Thank you!

Thanks! Yeah they are hard to get new, I would buy used 🤟

Hmmm mine is hard to start when its warm 😂

May I ask what the bike cost in Taiwan and what do you pay in ensurance?

@@RU-vid_Globetrotter i dont know sorry

@@RU-vid_Globetrotter V2 costs around $38k USD in Taiwan, sounds unbelievable, right? Insurance is cheap, normally it takes about $100 USD a year, depends on your program

@@hugolee2118 $38k is nuts. Might as well go with a v4

Thanks!

Thanks! I think the V2 is a perfect balance of power and handling for the road and the track. I think you will find the zx10r too fast for the road and you cant really experience the power unless you in a fast group on the track

Sometimes and ride for 2-3 hours, I am glad I did that upgrade.

By the way, the bike still fully stocked, I did not install head shield or change the exhaust to Akra yet.

Thanks for info on your ownership🤟

@@Alkhalidi001 is it as hot as the V4 or much much cooler ??

@@TIMHARTTT it’s still hot but less than the V4

Thanks!

I am an owner as well and as far as sidestand are concerned... Ducati designed theirs to be picked at (the very tip) with front of toe right below the footpeg. Takes a little practice, I found, as I discovered after searching thru online forums. I wear track boots primarily and it's been easier to do with my Sidi brand somewhat pointy toes.... Hope this helps if you haven't already figured it out.

what about the heat? I'm dying from my SS heat but I heard v2 is worse?

For me I think the supersport has actually more underseat heat than my v2 .

V2 streetfighter is a great choice, I would probably get it if I didnt have the panigale 🤟

Thanks! I´m sure a ducati dealer in CA will let you test ride one, these bikes get really hot in urban riding so I´ll suggest you test it first.

Lol, cant find any v2 inside a showroom for last 3 months, it’s getting sold out before hitting showroom floor 😩

I live in SoCal (OC to be exact) and I've had my V2 for over a year now. I mostly use it for commuting to and from work and occasionally do some canyon rides with the local Ducati club. I personally think the heat isn't that much of an issue. I wear jeans lined with Kevlar in certain locations. Yes, the heat is noticeable when temps are 85+ out but it's very manageable as long as the bike is moving, especially on the highway. Once you get to a light, you certainly can feel the heat emanating from under the seat and you'll feel it on the insides of your legs. Is it painful? Not so much. If I were to rate the pain from the heat 1-10 (10 being your legs are on fire) I would give it a 4 or 5 at most. During our CA winters, this heat is a welcome reprieve and the heat feels great between your legs. As long as you're not out riding in bumper to bumper traffic in 90+ temps, you will be just fine. I promise.

Try the heat shield kit from Ducati spacers

I just bought one today…my ass feels like it’s on top of an Oven

6) weird thing the issue with the starting. Mine doesn’t do that and sometimes I start the bike and it’s at more than 100 degrees and starts with no problem

It's there but it's not like your leg will be cooking like on the V4. If you wear leather it will be a lot more bearable! If you're in A LOT of stop and go traffic then yes it might get hotter than you'd like but as long as you're not stopping for too long you'll be ok!

Svarer deg på norsk, den er ikke morsom å kjøre i tettsteder på sommeren, den blir fort 104 grader i saktegående kjøring så ubehagelig. Men så fort man ligger over 80 km/t så holder den seg kald nok selv i 30 grader dager på sommeren. 😊

Godt å vite! Takk for svar 😊

what color the white one is really nice

@@arvin8840 I went with red that's ductai signature colour

@@ktm-kr9mm nice

I have no experience with that bike sorry :/

Guess you gonna need to get a CBR 650 or so or Aprilia Tuono 660 but they are lower in power. I mean the more cylinders the smoother it gets. I really can recommend the Street Triple. Maybe you get a Daytona 675 or the Limited Daytona 765 Moto2

Nope no worries

my bad, you are correct

It has never been down this far, i just moved it down ;)

Light smoke🤟

Its good for road use, bumps are noe issue, its not as stiff as other sport bikes🤟

@@scandimc I am tempted to make it my track bike. £15,000 is reasonable for a Ducati sports bike

@@newkurosawa you can get v2 bayliss with ohlins

Service ligger som regel på 3-4k avhengig for årlig service, desmo service er nok rundt det dobbelte ca. Forsikring varierer veldig men typisk rundt 1200kr i måneden for fullkasko.

@@scandimc takk for svar 👏

Ducati performance, og nettet 👍🏻

Yes, I just switched to the seat cover

@@scandimc no disrespect for any race lovers. But I prefer super sexy bikes to rome with girlfriend. so I prefer to use super sexy bikes with pillions. Just saying. Any how I really enjoyed your video. keep growling. ❤😃

A fuel lamp comes on

@@scandimc how much fuel does the fuel light indicate is in the tank?

@@JS-fb6ww It doesnt say but normally 7 liters left in the tank

My fuel light comes on around 100 miles after fill up. I usually get around 180 miles per tank so I reset the trip odometer after I fill up and I ride about 150-160 miles before I fill up again.

@@leepaihan I gave one of your videos a thumbs down due to the fact that you have disabled comments on your RU-vid channel. It goes against the very tenents of youtube.

Im 186cm and it fits me good, easy flat foot. I cant really tell for you tho.

Løp og kjøp 🤟

2020 V2 panigale 🤟

@@scandimc thank you also good videi

@@morganhill1490 thank you!

some of us have more than one bike, and sometimes the weather can be bad. i live in southern cali so 95% of the year is rideable, but other states have riding seasons which are only a few months

@@oxyygin ah yeah that makes sense.

Thanks for your opinion, Im just telling my experience with it 😊

186 cm

crashed 3 years ago ;(

@@scandimc oh crap :( good to know you’re still riding. :)

Im not gonna stop 😀

Thats impressive!

How was the reliability and maintenance been?

Ok 😁

Hahaha it sucks, Ducati keeping their «Racing DNA»

It's definitely modern or even futuristic but some people want elegant subtleness. This looks more like classic Ducatis like the 916 or 1098, and the smoothness may prove to be more timeless in 20 years. I'm not saying I like how this or that looks more... But the v2 is more streetable (low rev power and riding position) and cheaper, so I'm getting a v2. Plus, it's also like classic Ducatis in that it's the L twin

No not that my review is better, I just said that I have more experience on this bike than most journalists who ride these for some hours and then post it on RU-vid. I dont really care about that you dont like the mods, so take your negative hate energy somewhere else please😁

I think Juan is 11 or 12 years old maybe?

Damn bruh who hurt you 😹

@@R1___ that’s the best you got? Some people just have horrible taste, like the creator. All I was saying, the V2 stock has no need for mods.

@@juanzamora6228 I can understand that you like it stock, but that doesnt mean that everyone else should have the same taste as you do. Just be more respectful Juan thats all.
