Wow Mr. Fly, a mouthwatering speedy review of a stunning Ducati. It looks better on film than on the website. Great to hear it clicking through the gears and especially on those beautiful sun lit roads. Just wow! What biker wouldn’t like to be there blasting it on. Looking forward to seeing the negatives and positives review when it’s loaded. Thanks for loading the film on a cold damp January!! 👍🙏

@markpearce5793 3 года назад

Looking forward to the remainder of your reviews - been anticipating them for a while on this beauty! Shocking weather here though - haven’t been out for a ride for months. Yours aye, Alan

@dorrist 3 года назад

Thanks for a nice first impression video! I purchased the S model about 6 months ago and while it's the most expensive bike I've ever owned, it is by far the best. Only thing you may find lacking is usable range as the fuel light comes on somewhere around 85 miles. 😂 Also you commented on heated grips: the button is there yes but they must be fitted as an option. Also the aftermarket akra exhaust is ridiculously expensive but the sound it makes afterwards is pretty awesome! All things considered, it is simply an amazing ride! Looking forward to your comparison with the Super Duke R.

@RZFD 3 года назад

Really interested in what its like in the rain, in the cold, in windy conditions. Considering using this all year round. No doubt on a lovely summer day its an awesome bit of kit. But there are no reviews yet that show what its like to live with in the winter. Under horrid rain and wind. Trust TMF to bring us the first down to earth review. Rather than another video of someone twisting the throttle, laughing like a madman and saying its great! Any bike is great in a straight line on a summers day.

@giovanniquargentan6198 3 года назад

nobody tests such bikes with cold and wet conditions because it makes no sense, yea it can do that has electronic safety controls and stuff and the v4 engine is quite docile, but why would you use this during winter. Buy a little scooter for that

That was a really great video. I'm Scottish and it's nice to hear a streetfighter video that hasn't got an American accent. There is no overly excited voice shouting that they are "super-stoked" or claiming that the bike is "Insane". I just got a V4 SP Streetfighter 3 weeks ago and I haven't been able to get out due to the weather, so I'm watching RU-vid and dreaming of sunny days. Thanks for the professional video. I sub'd you. 👍

@TheMissendenFlyer 3 года назад

Totally agree

@MrDZum 2 года назад

Keyless ignition would keep the key and key chain from leaving scratches all over that area of the bike/tank. That's about the biggest benefit I can see with that tech/feature/capability. Might be a little more secure as far as theft deterrence, too.

Keyless ignition is indeed a solution to a non existent problem.

@Bazza47 3 года назад

I guess you've never dropped your keys at a petrol station then spent the next 10 minutes panicking trying to find them like I have then! A lot of riders have no other keys with it which makes it easier to loose plus of course if commuting bike thieves are known to come up next to you at the lights, steal your keys and then ride off hoping you'll leave your bike at the roadside so they can then steal it with the aid of another gang member spotting for them. I've had it on my last 2 GS' and like it, though I would agree it's not much use unless the fuel cap is keyless too. It's more convenience than anything, if you've never had it you're probably not bothered but once you do have it keyless becomes a nice to have.

@chrissorreda4982 3 года назад

@@cpuuk Sorry i dont quite understand what happened here. Your friend’s keyless fob was snatched from him and then?

@chrissorreda4982 3 года назад

I love it though, it’s a great bike .

@TheMissendenFlyer 3 года назад

Crikey!!

@mrbonkers2613 3 года назад

On my GS I find keyless quite convenient. Mainly because I have to carry so many keys for the bike; namely 1 BMW (to release BMW sat nav when parked), 2 Givi key for top box (too mean to buy BMW item), 3 Litelok, 4.Disc lock. So without keyless I’d have this lot banging about in front of me. What do others do?

@robertwbeams9929 3 года назад

Crikey could this be a Ducati that doesn't need bits substituted straight off the Dealer floor! Plush? Ducati! A full fairing appeals to me so much more than a naked. And that steering damper afterthought? But hey, what a point and squirt machine, so satisfying to pass the trundling tin cans swiftly and safely. A great start then Andy. Look forward to watching that it continues to exceed expectations and the classic Ducati niggles which seemed to never change, are a thing of the past.

Come on Mr Flyer.... you need a few hours in the saddle to find out how comfortable a bike is surely. Another awesome, rich persons plaything, that has no practical use on the road or indeed the track for most of us. Are you going to buy one for the TMF man cave ?.... Thought not. Keep up the good work love your videos. On a personal note, having owned Gixxers, S1000R, Tuono V4 Factory, Africa Twin etc. etc. The only bike I've ever kept for more than 18 months is my 3 YO Street Triple 765 RS, I still love this bike, for me it does so many things so well, also loving my Zero SR/S the most practical bike I've ever owned and a scream to ride.

Personally the fuel gauge sensors need sorting out from Ducati. I’ve had mine replaced and still decides when it wants to not read a fully tank. Many have found them quite wonky.

I love naked bikes and was very excited when I heard Ducati were making the Streetfighter but the Panigale V4 S is, in my opinion, one of the nicest looking bikes out there. One of each would be nice! 🤣

I agree!

Great review as always but I still can't get my head around that headlight looks like someone's pushed it down too far & the clock's look like they have just been stuck on to high up even though they haven't but that's what it looks like as the headlight is too far down & certainly wind blast for sure!! 👎🏻 But apart from that it looks awesome!! 👍🏻

Now that’s the proper way to fit the headlights, all tucked in nice and cozy. ** Cough...Triumph Street Triple...Cough**

Cracking review TMF 👌 for 19K I'd want a fuel gauge tho!

Preference for this type of riding position is just sign if what the body wants now, sadly. Welcome to the club of middle age. It's actually quite good. Happy travels

Indeed....good to hear from you again TT!

You have reviewed just about every Ducati in some form but one I think is conspicuously absent. Would love to see you on a Hypermotard.

I'm just not a big fan of supermotos, don't know why, just don't do it for me.....I'm possibly missing out and should give one a go...

Hello you are not in a minority as far as the key less ignition goes. I lost mine, what a faff! Beautiful Ducati TMF, fab review!

@TheMissendenFlyer 3 года назад

Thank you - and glad we concur on the keyless thing....

'feels so much like exotica' Yep, that'll be highly apparent from the size of the bill for the valve adjustment interval!

Great video! Please can I ask where you mount your helmet cam? The shots always look spot on, and I have trouble mounting my go pro and getting a shot that is t too high or too low! Thanks! Ride safe 👍🏼

Interesting, when I'm edging closer to a new bike I always go back to your old reviews, enticing indeed! Jip, I'm in the exact same spot on that XR you're in on this Streetfighter. I found the XR's seat rather comfortable, maybe since I have sufficient padding built into my behind :-). I just like it in the HP colours and there are currently none available with the chaos going on down here and now our port inventory system also having been the target of a hack making offloading or loading a ship impossible. Grey is however easy to find, at a very good price. Since a R1200GSA holds its value to well, I wouldn't have to pay in too much on a demo XR if I traded my 2015 in, but I just can't seem to bring myself to do that, I love that bike. What's keeping you from trading in your Ducati and Street triple on one of these if I may ask, not that I want to edge you on to anything I'm battling with myself?

@TheMissendenFlyer 3 года назад

I already have a GS! That plus all my bikes servedifferent purposes....trade a Panigale for a GS makes little sense to me!

@GerhardCombrink 3 года назад

@@TheMissendenFlyer Thank you, was however enquiring more on the Streetfighter as as option than a GS since I know you already have one 😊
