The flapper valve in the exhaust is to regulate back pressure,,To heat up the engine quicker,,,,I have one on my Dacia duster 1.5 dci,,,,And no I'm not joking,,,
The F18 is my favourite V-Twin Panigale variant EVER ... hands down. Regardless of performance/sound, that Akrapovic exhaust setup on a Panigale is my taste aesthetically. I would like to extend my gratitude to you for sharing this masterpiece, all the relevant information and the eargasm of a startup with us. Edit : I will never forget the frightening scenes of watching Melandri’s tiny frame being violently shaken at max speed down the straights. Even to a pro, it must have been disconcerting ... if not terrifying.
If you want to hear a truly quick revving Ducati, check out 44 teeth video on Stoners championship winning gp Ducati. Now that thing IS loud and revs way faster than this.
I can only imagine the amount of torque that bike must have... Beautiful sounding bike also. Diferent from anything at the circuits back then. They don´t make them like that anymore. Beautiful machine.
Great and very informative videos, please please keep them coming. Subscribed, liked and commented hope your channel begins to fly, just like them bikes. Cheers
Hi! I appreciate your time and ever in sharing this wonderful piece of machine with us. Knowing that this is the last of its kind. Would it be still possible to buy some of the OEM corse parts from Ducati if ever let say you crash one of them?
Incredible,absolutely stunning,the sound is unbelievable,the throttle response is next level ,would of liked to know the £ value tho ,200.000 /250.000?
That engine has NO rotating mass. It's crazy how freely it revs with those huge cylinders. Crazy engineering. Anyone else notice how there almost no valvetrain/gear-train noise? I know the exhaust is probably drowning the mic, but you don't hear a single tick. Must be the crazy control over clearances and tolerances you can do when you just have to focus your efforts on one bike, and not tens of thousands for the public.
Well harleys have the most shitty sound of anything on 2 wheels!!! And the fact that slack jawed chopper jockeys ride those obnoxious wrecks around and either act like they don't know about the racket or in line with "BIKER ATTITUDE " Don't give a fuck if it annoys anyone is one reason I would never be associated with the assholes that ride them and the company that builds them !!!!😀😀😀😀🏍🏍🏍 have a nice day
