THE DUCATI PANIGALE V2 S
Pure Italian Excellence.
Welcome to the Panigale family: each model is an example of Italian excellence, with racing DNA and competitive spirit. To every Ducatista, the Panigale is the ultimate object of desire.
You will note that what the V2 S offers to set it apart from the standard V2 is its Öhlins Suspension and that it is designed for a SOLO rider — without provisions to carry a passenger.
The lightest Panigale of all time.
The new Ducati Panigale V2 marks a historic transition in the history of Borgo Panigale twin-cylinder sports bikes. For the first time it does not derive from the larger motorcycle that competes in Superbike and has been designed from scratch, which has resulted in the creation of the lightest ever Panigale. It weighs a good 37.8 lb less than the previous model, inheriting the characteristic sports attitude and track performance of that bike and adding a level of ease, comfort and riding pleasure. The V2 S is even 7 lbs lighter than the standard V2!
Sporty and elegant soul.
The Panigale twin flaunts a simple design and clear-cut lines, with sophisticated electronics that make it equally high-performance and enjoyable on both road and track. A clean and simple design, smooth and expansive surfaces. Like every Ducati supersport, the Panigale V2 models are as much about racing as they are elegance.
Explore the MAIN FEATURES.
- NEW V2 ENGINE — Featuring the classic 90° architecture, a Ducati twin trademark, the new V2 is equipped with an innovative electronic variable timing system that ensures substantial torque delivery at all engine speeds and real sports performance at the top end. Homologated with displacement of 890 cc, it weighs just 119 lbs, making it the lightest twin-cylinder ever produced in Borgo Panigale.
- ADJUSTABLE SUSPENSION — The standard version of the Panigale V2 is equipped with a fully adjustable 43 mm Marzocchi fork at the front and a Kayaba shock at the rear. The Panigale V2 S, complete with 43 mm Öhlins NIX30 fork and Öhlins shock, sets the benchmark for suspension in its category.
- BENCHMARK ELECTRONICS — The Panigale V2 models flaunt electronics derived from those of the Panigale V4. The new 5” TFT color display allows the rider to modify the levels of Cornering ABS, Traction Control, Wheelie Control and Engine Brake even while riding, in real time. The Panigale V2 models are also equipped with the new Ducati Quickshift 2.0 as standard.
- MODERN RACING ERGONOMICS — The ergonomic triangle of the Panigale V2 is modern, with a contained seat to handlebar height difference to ensure maximum feeling at the front end without excessively overloading the arms. This translates into comfort on the road and heightened performance on track. The footpegs are high and allow for significant lean angles but without locking the knees, for guaranteed comfort also during everyday use.
- BRAKES — The Panigale V2 models are equipped with Brembo M50 callipers, which ensure outstanding performance on track and excellent controllability on the road. The master cylinder is radial while the brake discs measure 320 mm at the front and 245 mm at the rear. The coloured calipers, available as an accessory, add another personalized touch to the aesthetic.
- THERMAL COMFORT — The Panigale V2 and V2 S guarantee the rider real thermal comfort thanks to passive ventilation ducts designed to optimise the air flow and reduce heat during riding. This solution improves the riding experience, ensuring a comfortable temperature on even the hottest days.
- LIGHTWEIGHT ALUMINUM WHEELS — The Panigale V2 models are equipped with new die-cast aluminum wheels featuring six “Y” spokes arranged in three groups of two. The Pirelli Diablo Rosso IV tires, 120/70 at the front and 190/55 at the rear, offer an impressive footprint and exceptional handling on the road. Those seeking maximum performance on track can mount slick tyres with a 190/60 rear, the same size used in the Supersport World Championship.
