Oh yeah. Just got delivered today. My first 5 miles on it warped my brain. Still recovering. Lol. I had a customer call just as I got my helmet off. He asks: Are you alright? Lol. I was so winded I could barely utter words. Then roll right into utility compliance issues for his car shredder. Lol.

Anyway, 2023 V4S. It has the factory magnesium wheels, Akra high mount full titanium exhaust, dry clutch, and, of course, all the little extra carbon bits. Ducati lists HP, with this exhaust, at 228 and dry weight at 386 lbs. The exhaust drops 11 lbs and wheels drop around 2 lbs-ish (no real hard data on that). So figure, dry, it weighs 373 lbs??

It is an absolutely rocket ship. My last “fast” bike was the 2012 Pani S. The V4 is several orders of magnitude more {insert everything}.

As I get more miles I’m sure the sensation will temper.

My Hypermotard also. She’s in the midst of an extensive brake upgrade.

Nice!

Glad to see they are keeping the weight down while adding power vs the auto industry that just keeps making them heavier.

My god that's sexy! I'm still sitting here with my 2004 ZX-10R, can't imagine 30-40lbs less and another 50 hp.

how would u feel about 600hp on a 500 pound hayabusa? With a multistage engine driven lockup clutch(streetable). I JUST completed a set of brembo gp4rx billet calipers myself. brembo corsa corta master cylinder and custom lines. Carrazzeria rims/ with a mcintosh alumipro swingarm. Garrett GTX4088 turbo.

Stunning. I would love a hypermotard. Wish the seat height was shorter. My old man hips don’t move like the used too.

While I respect the hell out of that, it's not my bag, just like a drag car. I like my stuff to go around turns as fast as possible.

Beautiful! Not many bikes out there faster than that from what I've seen, outside of the H2 of course. Watched a video where a bunch of guys were running all the new top bikes from BMW, Ducati, and the others and the Duc was the clear winner each time. Was surprised to see the BMW get beat by the Duc as well.

That is sick, bro. I have been thinking about an old school 929 but am too big of a pussy.
