Why the 2020 Panigale V2 is the PERFECT Ducati, and the best L-twin ever! 

I picked up my V2 today, 200 miles in one day. I was shocked when I saw the bike for the first time, so beautiful in the metal, video and images don't reflect the true picture of this bike. Aching, yes, hot, yes, emotional connection, yes. Every time I stopped for fuel, coffee, folk wanted to chat about the bike.

Loved the video. I just left Ducati dealership and they have the 2021 v2 Panigale. I’m riding her Tuesday!

Learn more from this review than any other on the v2. Made some great points thanks

Matt I just subscribed, love your special sense of humor, yet I learn so much from you

You have a very strange/different enthusiasm and way of describing the bike... I like it, and it kept me watching the full video 👍... subscribed

Hey Matty! Nice Video, thanks. I ordered me this beauty and I will get it in october. Can't wait to feel it between my legs, so I burn the time with watching videos about the V2 ;) I already did a testride and I totaly agree with you. It's a masterpice of european engineering Greetings from Berlin and ride save!

Picked up my 2021 on Friday. Love the looks, easy to ride and not intimidating at all. More than enough power for everyday twisty rider. My only complaint is the front breaks. IMHO they aren't powerful enough. It just doesn't grab as quickly as I would like. Other than that..lot's of fun, great sound and beautiful.

Love his energy, funny too. Subscribed

You nailed it my brother . I have this bike and she is a beast . She tapped out at 183 STOCk . I say keep your liter bike I have more than plenty . Great video . The remix part was hilarious 😂

Thanks for the video thinking of getting one :) subbed

Just subbed.. love this guy ..

Buying mine this week😎

Picked mine up a few days ago! Love it. Had the dealership remove the stock exhaust for the full akrapovic exhaust before delivery!

I was the first V2 In western Canada(I believe, Feb 12th arrival, road it away feb 14). Victoria B.C. , Island Motorcycles BMW Ducati. Matty you are bang on!!! Loved the vid!! I wish you touched on the riding modes a lil more. The engine specialization, the engine braking when you take everything off, is unreal!!! when you let the bike go...... damb!!! Race mode is INSANE!!! Art on wheels with..... HOLY FCK!!! Can't wait to see your first ride vid on a broken in V2.

Just sold my 999, miss it,but the right guy has it now... love the V2!...960s

Nice video bro I’m thinking to buy this byke or a bmw s1000rr 2020 What do you think is a better option?

I liked your 1198 comparison,that's were I'm at and I wondered how the power compared,I would hope that advances have been made in the intervening years,I was disappointed to hear this V2 isn't particularly light but I'm hearing you raving about so I'm thinking this is better than any L twin thus far.

I think you’ll find The superquattro engine used in Panigale V2 has chain driven cams whereas the Testrastretta 11 deg uses belts

Hello from Brazil.... nice video!! here we don't have it yet just the 959 that I first tought would be the same the V2, thanks for making it clear....I agree 1198 is a fight to ride in traffic. Matt may I give you a suggestion to compare the superduke 1290 gt to superduke r , thanks and sucess my friend

Planning to move up from my KTM RC 390 to this good idea? yeah or nay?

"My 959 guys, sucks to suck" 😂...great video lol

Matt I'm thinking of selling my 2019 Tuono Factory for the V2 to ride mostly on track. Is that a good idea? Thoughts?

Engine doesn't run belts mate. And thank goodness for that.

What about the stalling issue?

does this have a better electronics than the 1299S panigale?

Reminds me a lot of the 990 ss cr.

Aww man... I was all for trading my 600rr in for one of these, then you mentioned they still have the belts in the engine! That has put me off for sure

I just got the white one

Top speed?

Ducati doesn’t use belts on the superquadro engine ...

For the $ and reliability, comfort and user friendliness, the gixer 750 is still a better bike and can be had for about 60% of the price of this.

1299 > V2

No good if you live somewhere warm,melting your bells to look cool…pass!

The V2 had another predecessor that you're conveniently forgetting, the 2012 1199 Panigale. The 1199 had 172 HP and a top speed of 177 mph. This "new" V2 has a revised, two-piece fairing - to revise the airflow around the engine - and a much smaller engine. In my opinion, the V2 is a BIG step down from the 1199.
