First video!! Long Term Ownership of the Ducati streetfighter v4! Subscribe
Ducati dry clutch probably why it runs sh.tty when its hot
Streetfighter v2 probably good starter
Yamaha r6 and Aprilia r660 good starters
had a hypermotard 950 and it was throttled to 45 hp. found it boring after a month. I have now bought a streetfighter v4s and am waiting for it to be delivered. 6 more months :(
You will love it!
Anything interesting on the drain plug magnet?
I will buy it as my first bike and never touch 2nd gear
which mirrors are you using?
They are some Amazon mirrors. Gave them a try and have been very happy with them.
Great videos man keep it up! I'm from MI originally, in socal now. Looking to upgrade to SF V4S shortly. You have a strong Michigander accent lol, sound just like all my family from Dewitt.
Thanks I appreciate it! Its an awesome bike you wont regret it. Would love to move out of MI. Although I don't think the accent would ever go away LOL.
what exhaust do you have on there? looking at gettin one for my '23 sfv4 and couldnt find it on any of your vids.
@@xjado321 I currently am running the MGP exhaust by Hotbodies racing
A dirt bike will teach you what grip is. A street bike will teach you what speed is. Simply an opinion.
I could agree with that.
Man, im rebuilding a streetfighter V4S right now. The DJI osmo Action 4 is 10 times better than a GoPro. I've had the 5, 6, 10, and 11. They dont compare to the DJI.
Thanks for the feedback. I think I made up my mind and will try the DJI. On another note, rebuilding that bike cant be cheap LOL.
@@CerealCityGarage surprisingly less than you'd think lol, it's at $12,500ish total cost
@@GenericExotics Wow not bad
I feel like for the street, a v2 streetfighter makes more sense. The V4 is an amazing bike for sure though!
No
Too underpowered for a beginner bike. you will probably grow out of it in 4 days as a beginner
ye i started on a h2r one of the most boring bikes considering to upgrade to a honda unicorn
Yesn't!
Every bike is a good beginner bike as long as you behave like a normal human being and respect the rules.
Strongly disagree. If you’ve never ridden before how would an H2R be a good idea. Smh
@@charlesbatsold31 I can answer you that. Every bike can kill you if you behave like an idiot. Heck you can die if you fall out of your bed and land badly for example. Point is if you start out with a bike like the H2 you respect it more. You know what it is and what it can do. Sure with a less powerful bike you can pull the throttle to the maximum without having to fear to break speed limits. But eventually you can get too confident, too fearless. Which can be more dangerous when you switch to a more powerful bike. In short: with a smaller bike there´s more of a chance to become more reckless. With a higher powered bike you start having respect for what it is. And btw an idiot should never ride a bike no matter the age or cc. Have a nice day🙂
@@charlesbatsold31 Go to Asia and see how many superbikes are being used by beginners. Majority of them have been on a motorcycles but they still buy liter bikes. It is dangerous when you ride carelessly. It has never been because of a bike.
Any Duc after 2012 is a safe bet. Audi acquired them then. They are no less reliable than jap bikes now. More expensive to service… YES, but worth it.
I just made a reservation on one few days ago, will hopefully own one in a week or two, i'm so stoked
Congrats! Its an Awesome bike.
Nice
Wait…. So i just paid 32.000€ for a V4s and it doesn’t has a gas gauge 😅 so its guessing when you need to fill up ? No indicator whatsoever??
There is a low fuel light that comes on. My understanding is you have about 20 miles (32 km) after that comes on to refuel. I use my trip 1 and reset it every time I fill up. I know I am getting low after 75-80 miles (120-130 km) of riding. Its always a guessing game.
Wouldn't go more then 2k miles on oil. Ill probably trade my tuono for this next year. Need the extra hp 😅
92 miles on a tank 😂
Liter bikes be thirsty
Watched a minute in and was enough to give a thumbs up 😅
Thank you!!
It's so easy you getting those 170mph my S1k 2013 i need to pull more and the bike is really fast i don't know is my odm is accurate 😭
are you in Canada? Why is your speedo in KMH?
Im in the United States. The speedo is in MPH
Great review, I got mine from Motor City Ducati and same, Service advisor called me and said I had a "nail" in my rear tire when it was at its 2nd oil change so that was 800 bucks. its running flawless otherwise.
Awesome
is that Miles per hour? if it is you were going 251 kmph. Respect bro!
Yes miles per hour. Appreciate it!
Have you ridden the Diavel v4? I’m torn between the two. Position is great on both BUT cruise control, larger tank, fuel gauge, keyless control, launch start, even more comfortable positioning, WAY better for a pillion…. I think I’ll be going Diavel v4
I have not had a chance to ride one yet. I think if you are looking for a more comfortable bike that still has awesome performance, get the diavel.
Ended up buying a SFV4s grey Nero 😊
Let me ask you. That orange indicator in your display when you first accelrate in the beginning of video. Meaning what? Cant see it when you accelrate later in video. Asking because I just bought a SFV4 and noticed same thing
I believe you are seeing the RPM Indicator. Its sort of like a shift light built into the RPM counter. You dont see it later on in the video because I am in a higher gear and shifting early before the light comes on. I hope this helps.
Long term- 12 months and 6k, funny
Compared to the miles most people put on their machines 6k would be a long term review 😂.
I’m about to take the plunge into the V4. Any regrets? Would you upgrade to a V4S?
No regrets! I love the bike! Still has been flawless! Personally no I wouldn’t upgrade to the v4s. I only ride on the street and I don’t think I can even get close to being able to tell a difference.
Great video dude, look forward to seeing more of your content.
Thanks! As soon as it warms up where I live much more videos will be coming.
Is that 125cc?
🤣🤣
😂
127cc with thicker gasket
❤
I’m curious about the clutch. I have heard you can do the SP2 dry clutch upgrade on the V4. Does the V4 come with a “standard” dry clutch that can be upgraded to a different material or is it a wet clutch?
It is a wet clutch from factory. I believe you can buy the kit to make it a dry clutch.
@@CerealCityGarage yeah that’s what I thought. I see absolutely no advantage to the dry clutch. 1) it wears faster 2) it’s really expensive. For a street bike I feel like a wet slipper clutch is going to offer the best bang for the buck.
@@RadDadisRad I agree. Unless it was a dedicated track bike. I see no advantage in doing that.
@@CerealCityGarage how fast does it go in the first 3 gears if you’ve managed to get it to redline
If you are going to redline id say around 135.@@RadDadisRad
Your speedometer is wayyy off, unless all the minivans are cruising the highway at 90+MPH (like at 3:47)
Its pretty common for the mini vans to go 90+ through that section of highway LOL. I have no doubt my spedo is off by a couple MPH though.
When I'm in a 75 mpm zone and the road is relatively open, I do 90 in our Odyssey. Nothing unusual about that. Hell, in West Texas, I've cruised at 100 or so.
made me more confident i took right decision to order one, can't wait to get it - will be march....:)
I has a 22 v4s with 10800 kms now and I’ve changed the oil 4 times already I changed oil so many times because I have the clear clutch cover and I like to keep it clean. Yes I agree with you it’s a gas 🐷
Street Fighter rotfl, known elsewhere by non pretentious people trying to sound cool as a Naked Bike. Make videos where you go out street fighting with your street fighter!
lol
Florida man here I’ve had a zx10,,zx14, mt09 , sv650, I feel like the all got hit especially just being in Fla lol. I’ve been looking at the monster plus, not you got me looking at this ! I stopped riding for a while cause of back aches and got into cars . Looking for something I can sit upright in but still be a sport bike and be somewhat comfortable . 5”7 as well so I’ll have to check out see how this feels
Nice bike but too bad it doesn’t have a little more power😂
Nice one! I would appreciate it if you could share some opinions about the following questions. 1. Is V4 more than enough in terms of daily commute? V4S seems to have a better break system and suspension, but also comes with a higher price. So.... 2. I heard there's no fuel gauge on it, does it bother you sometimes? 3. Would you recommend this to a beginner? Thank you :D
1. Ive never been on a V4S but, Ive also never felt like I was lacking anything on the V4. So my opinion is if you are using it as a street bike get the v4. If you are using it as a track bike get the V4S. 2. That is correct there is no fuel gauge. Doesn't bother me as much as I thought because I just reset my trip when I fuel up. After 2 or 3 tanks you learn how many miles you typical get before the fuel light comes on. 3. I personally would NOT recommend to a beginner. Yes it has low power mode but we all know sticking to riding in that mode isn't as easy as it sounds. The V2 is a better beginner option if you must have a ducati streetfighter.
@@CerealCityGarage I agree with your thoughts about starting with a V2. (I am also considering 765 RS) Thanks for your reply. Helps a lot 😊
1. V4 is more than enough in terms of daily commute. The V4 is actually the better track bike than the S, the soft suspension on the S isn't great for heavier set riders but works great for street damping. The brakes are identical. 2. No fuel gauge is no issue, I typically fill up when the light gets on but have run it 30mi or so with the fuel light on. 3. As a first bike? No. As a second bike? Sure, for someone who knows how to respect the throttle and their life. Electronics will keep slide/lift in check, but it's easy to pick up too much speed for a corner. Disagree with OP on the v2 being a better bike for a beginner, it's still 155hp. Skip the v2 for the V4, it's a comfier and easier to ride bike.
@@Pheil The only other difference I believe are the wheels which are slightly lighter on the "S" as they are 3 spoke instead of 5 spoke.
Would you not like some decent bends in the road?
I would love some more curvy roads. Lower Michigan isn't known for them :\
idk why everyone is saying to get a v2, this is perfect. trading in my slow as super sport 950 for this. cant wait
Never had a chance to ride a V2 but I think the V4 is a great bike on the street.
The scenery in this video is incredible. Seems like a nice place to live.
It is great until winter comes LOL
@@CerealCityGaragelol, 6 months of snow on the ground
Fellow MI sfv4 owner. 2023, also from Ducati Detroit, with 2500 miles so far. Only issue I had was that (sub 600 miles) the stock exhaust butterfly actuator/cable was out of adjustment in 2nd gear only. No power above 5k in second which was very odd. Fixed under warranty during the 600mi service. One thing I do like about the 2023 is, despite there still being no fuel gauge, there is an automatic fuel trip odometer that pops up on the display when the low fuel light comes on. However, I've never been able to put more than 3.3 gallons in the tank, even after the light has been on for 10-15 miles. I think the light is a bit preemptive, but thats better than overly optimistic I guess. Not sure if the pre-23 bikes have that, but I hear so many people complaining about the lack of fuel gauge; that auto trip odometer somewhat makes up for it. Thanks for the vid. Maybe we'll run into each other.
Ive been pretty lucky to not have any issues with mine. My 22 does have that F Trip when the light comes but, like you said it seems very preemptive as I also never get above 3.5 gallons or so. Safe riding!
my 21 has the auto trip thingie, its a v4s.
straight forward review,no nonsense "its too hot crap".Happy riding bro!
Wow, out there in the country all your roads are straight on. I don't know if I'd like that.
Drive in TX coming from Oregon... straights for eternity, a bummer.
@@armanterrell7215No joke. Most of the roads in TX are wide and straight. I ended up moving to Nashville TN last year and the roads here are really twisty. Way nicer than in Texas.
I have the same bike and exhaust but with a stage 2 Brentune. How’s your idle? Mine is pretty rough and I’ve sent them videos and complained but they tell me there’s nothing they can do and it’s not their tune, ran just fine with stock exhaust.
My Idle is pretty good. Sounds a little rough on cold start but nothing that has made me question the tune. Once the bike is warmed up it idles like stock. No issues at all.
Hey 👋 I’d really love to see a more detailed video about the exhaust. I’d like to see it from different angles, is looking good on the SF and the sound isn’t bad at all too.
I will try and get a detailed video of the exhaust!@@Paolonix
@@CerealCityGarage thank you! There’s not much material to watch about this exhaust indeed!
