Based on the current Ducati Panigale V4 S 2022, an even more prepared, exclusive and fast superbike is born, the Ducati Panigale V4 SP2 2022.
It is a very special bike, dedicated to those who only want to step on a circuit, because this V4 SP2 is a very special beast that takes many elements from its competition sisters.
This single-seater uses the same base of the Ducati Panigale V4 S 2022 that we showed you a few months ago, but it improves with the addition of some Racing components.
Thus, it mounts carbon fiber rims that are 1.4 kilos lighter, machined Rizoma aluminum/carbon footpegs, a lighter 520 transmission chain and Brembo Stylema R front brake calipers with adjustable Brembo MCS radial pump, with remote regulation of distance from lever to grip.
The single-seat seat comes with a double-textured upholstery with the name of the motorcycle engraved, and on the steering plate machined from an aluminum block and includes the number of the unit -it is a limited series-.
This Ducati Panigale V4 SP2 is a motorcycle optimized even more for the circuit
The fairing is painted in the colors of the company’s competition bikes in winter tests, with Ducati Corse on the flanks and the name of the bike on the lower rear of the keel.
As a derivative of the current V4/S 2022, it maintains the same novelties as the fairing, with new smaller and more efficient winglets, and new hot air evacuation gills.
It also maintains the monocoque aluminum front frame chassis, the tremendous single-sided swingarm or the second-generation Öhlins Smart EC 2.0 electronic suspensions, with an Öhlins NPX 25/30 fork with 125 mm of travel.
At the back it mounts an Öhlins TTX36 monoshock absorber, and the electronic steering damper is not missing.
As for its V4 Desmosedici Stradale V4 engine -4T, LC, 16V, Desmo, IE, 1,103 cc- with counter-rotating crankshaft and Twin Pulse firing intervals, it is also derived from the 2022 V4 S, but incorporates a dry clutch, very racing.
Racing components have been added, such as very light carbon fiber wheels
Its power is the same as the 2022 V4 S, 215.5 hp, which is a +1.5 hp gain over the 2021 model.
All the power mode management electronics are also maintained with 4 engine configurations, Full, High, Medium, Low, and there is also the usual safety electronics package with IMU, traction control and cornering ABS, wheelie control. , skid control, engine brake control, quickshifter up&down, etc.
The instrumentation is also the same color TFT screen as the V4 2022, with the same interface and configuration, but this Ducati Panigale V4 SP2 incorporates GPS as standard to memorize circuits and have a satellite laptimer.
Speaking of circuits, its internal memory allows the settings of 5 circuits to be stored, so once the bike is set up, the rider only has to select the pre-recorded setting and ride.
With all this, the Panigale V4 SP2 weighs only 173 kilos, a weight that is further reduced with the Akrapovic titanium exhaust system for the circuit, leaving its weight at only 168 kg, and gaining an extra 13 CV, reaching 228 CV. .
