I started riding a good 8 years before I ever drove a car. I lean around bends in my car seat even though I've now been driving cars for almost 20 years.
You guys should do a video on how to ride at the track for the average viewer. Body position, how you use the bars, braking, etc... Your fans would love that!
Neither bike is something for me, but something about this V2 is just very pure and more "right tool for the job" than the new Streetfighter. It's a looker, too. Looking forward to the review.
Al recon 44teeth running track days with tuition.. good idea? You could watch me wobbled run Oulton Park on my 250LC.. might even let you have a spin 💪🏼
@@3h0xr0 now you are just being a dick, why the negativity ? why so argumentative ? I think if they claim 155 then 143 to 145 at the wheel should be achievable, remove the cat exhaust and who knows. Do you not like Ducati's? I rode the old 959 and wasn't a fan, also didn't like the 1199/1299 too aggressive and the chassis (or lack of) seemed to struggle, I hope they have got it right with this one. The V4 is amazing so no reason they haven't got this figured out.
A fantastic bike, ridden beautifully in it's natural habitat. It's a shame Jase doesn't have one of his own - so he could keep Perkins honest on his flash HP4...
How is the camera positioned? This is hands down one of the best on boards I've seen that does a really good job of conveying what it is like to actually ride a bike. I really really like it!
It's on the chin of the helmet... normally on regular track days they won't let you have your camera there... but I guess on press releases you can do it... :)
Wonderful stuff. It must be difficult to talk and ride. I have a helmet with built-in microphone and speakers so might try it one day, but things happen so quickly!
Is anyone else keeping an eye out for the next episode of BBB or am I the only bellend? P.S - Fagan I grabbed a picture with you at Silverstone MotoGP! Top fella!
Isn't this just a repackaged L-twin 959? It cracks me up, Ducati was insistent that the old engine was a L-twin, and not a V-twin. Now they want to call this Old engine a V2 (V-twin)?
Seems like a really good package. I'm seriously torn between the Panigale V2 and a Lightning Strike Carbon edition. Not going to be all that much difference in price. Oh well I still have a year before I buy - Never buy a first edition
I want to really get a ducati for track. I wish some one would make track bike for 6 to 7 days a year which are few years old. Some thing a working guy can buy and use. No point getting a v2 and spend so much money for a few days of use.
Panigale owner for 5 years, key position is not a problem, the picture is really distorted, you don’t notice the key at all in reality. Not sure if I’d trade my 899 for one, not different enough, if it was putting out 165 hp and had the electronic suspension and Brembo M50’s I would have been really tempted, also compared to the original Panigale shape this looks a little boxy and too front heavy, if the front lights get any lower they will be touching the front wheel!! Far more useful for a road bike than the V4 and also has the right sound for a Ducati, unless the V4 has 5k’s worth of Akrapovic pipes on, it sounds disappointing.
daym... that is a nifty bike. I know the rider is far more important than the bike, but has this got rid of the old Ducati issues that bikes like the Streetfighter 1098 S had? Certainly looks to be more flow than point and shoot!
1'.54" Nay too shabby. I'm off there next week for the first time, can't wait. I'd be happy with that time : - ) I'll also be happy if it doesn't piss down as is the forecast : - (
@@FortyFourTeeth that's a good time dude. Fast track dayers would spunk in there pants all day for that time . In 2006 I was doing 58's on a track day. If I had more time I would of knocked a few good seconds off! Well done good riding fella
Very interested to see if this new gen 959 will make a good bike as purely a track toy, first gen small bore Panigales have always interested me for that use.
"Hello i am Jason Statham and today i ride a panigale v2." I wonder do you guys intend to make those interwiev style reviews again on those bikes? I am realy curious how it does compare to the 959 :)
I have to wonder if the price delta between this and the RSV4 you just posted is even worth it. Why not spend the extra 10k or whatever you saved on track time and tires? :)
If you were going to ride mostly on the street would you spend the $17K for the V2 or spend another $3K and get the V4? I'll be buying one or the other this summer. Anyone have thoughts?
No point sadly. It’s become busier and busier every year, and they let anyone with a camera into press day, so you can’t get any clean footage of the bikes
Lol....sat on the couch leaning into every corner with you. Great footage, smooth lap 👍
I started riding a good 8 years before I ever drove a car. I lean around bends in my car seat even though I've now been driving cars for almost 20 years.
Looked like you were getting some serious lean angles...wish you could add that MotoGP style lean angle graph to your videos
@@TheAegisClaw You should purchase proper bucket seats, it might help you with the lean.
@@Porkycheun I find myself just leaning forward towards the steering wheel so I can still lean sideways 😂
@@TheAegisClaw So you need harnest as well! lol

We actually started shooting one last year but need to finish the job
44Teeth Awesome. Look forward to seeing it! Thanks
@@FortyFourTeeth finish up champ
@@FortyFourTeethHave I missed this?
44 teeth daily uploads = Heaven 🤑
Big grin?
Porkycheun yes mate 😂🏍✊
For real tho
The Muscle Biker yea man
Okay, you’ve convinced me to go to dealer and steal one. Thanks!
Smooth like Jorge Lorenzo...
Too soon?
no...well maybe...well no feck it....
Explanation please?
@@Savantjazzcollective Pentagon, hexagon, octagon, Lorenzogon
@@HamzaAli-lu1fs gone where? Heard he was looking at Yamaha again...
Savantjazzcollective retired today
Glad to see the V2 still alive
Good camera position and the reply quality on YT in HD was perfect! Forza Statham!!
Interesting spot to put the key.
MICHAEL P
Looks like the first thing to snap off in every day riding scenario.
Thought that too, actually thought it’s a pretty shite place to put the key!
That has been the Ducati way for the last 25 odd years I believe
Isn’t this just an optical illusion due to the chin mounted GoPro? Doesn’t look to be an issue at all.
Same spot as the Diavel and I've never heard any complaints about that. I don't think that will be an issue imo
I’ve got to say, I’m liking this more than the V4. Looking forward to a shootout VS the Daytona!
Damn, Jason Statham mk2 can really get the lean on in this vid.
Felt like i was on the bike myself while watching it. As always fantastic video. What a smooth lap 👍
Neither bike is something for me, but something about this V2 is just very pure and more "right tool for the job" than the new Streetfighter. It's a looker, too. Looking forward to the review.
It's funny I actually started watching a video posted within a minute.
That's crazy.
Totally meaningless coincidence.
Lovely smooth lap
That V2 is a rocket!
Pun intended?
I ride dirt bikes but the banter is of such high standard that I can't help but follow this channel. There. I said it.
I better go get the tissues before I hit play
I was supposed to be giving up masturbation and then they drop this video
Yes I cried so much also knowing I can never ride this bike.
True should be retitled on board a jizz not jereze
CarletonJohnson I did 👍🏻
Me too... I got a stinking cold 😪
44Teeth,you know it makes sense.belissimo !!!
What excited me most were the letters V and especially the 2 😊
Epic appearance in the Bike World video Al!!!
That looked proper fast
Dang it seems smoother than the usual Panigales on video. Waiting for the full review!
Love the ducs, too bad my 20 year old one does not go like this. Thanks for doing what you guys do, much respect
Mama mia, that's a spicy meatball!
* mamma
maximum excite! great footage, cheers Al!
Christ Al, looks like you’re trying to get the side fairing down!!! Smooth.
Al recon 44teeth running track days with tuition.. good idea? You could watch me wobbled run Oulton Park on my 250LC.. might even let you have a spin 💪🏼
Love to, but doubt it’ll happen in the UK! Too many hoops to jump through
I love this bike. It’s enough horsepower to get in trouble but not scare the shit outta myself and it’s a V twin
Great camera position, great riding!
Looks awesome!
Dear Santa, I’ve been a(fairly) good boy this year so make sure I get one of these for Xmas ........thank you 😂
BVG looks like he is riding a Big Wheel on a sport bike!
Great pace, Fagan.
DAMN! Fagan can just throw down.
Nice riding Al, looking forward to the review
is it the perfect track day bike ??? 150HP twin with sweet chassis & suspension - top notch brakes, it's very very tempting !
150 hp on which dyno ?
@@3h0xr0 None, it hasn't been released yet ! thats just the estimated power.
@@3h0xr0 Ducati claim 155
S K well then -40, for about 100 - 110 at the rear .

Love jerez so flowing, duke rides nice 👍🏻
damn that was a serious lap
Sounds like he's enjoying it!
Just made me realise how much I need to get back to Jerez, nice one
Private Privacy guessing you cant see the colour of the apex in my profile picture?
Private Privacy 😂 thank you
Best Ducati Ad I remember ever seeing
[I don't mean this in a bad way!]
great riding as always Jason, but my god how composed is that bike. It's so stable! Anyone would be quick on that straight outta the pits!
MR-MB
I'd be first into the kitty litter because I can't corner 😂👍
Oooooh that boomin vtwin symphony never gets old
Really loving the on-boards. Particularly cos you can both ride well :)
Every time I watch one I think "man I suck!" lol
Quite embarrassed that I didn't even last the 2.21mins listening to that... Awh well 😂quality not quantity.
Unreal sound ♥️🤪🤪
You really do have the best job
This could definitely be my next bike👌
A fantastic bike, ridden beautifully in it's natural habitat. It's a shame Jase doesn't have one of his own - so he could keep Perkins honest on his flash HP4...

Saucy. Very saucy indeed. Interested to see the first reviews. Probably a much better road bike than the V4.

Awesome ride
Go on Jason
It’s not a ducati unless it’s a twin!
Adobo Moto and it is a twin
So smooth
Maximum lean angle achieved!
Thought there were a few degrees left but a front tuck suggested otherwise 😂
love the view, felt like i was on it :)
Seems like a really good package. I'm seriously torn between the Panigale V2 and a Lightning Strike Carbon edition. Not going to be all that much difference in price. Oh well I still have a year before I buy - Never buy a first edition
👍 Great lap on a cool bike
When is next BBB video? And what is the best way to support/donate to you guys?
You are a badass, Alistair Fagan.
I love Ducati but not a fan of the low pitched noise.
Certainly wouldn't complain if I had one though!
Ducatis tend to sound especialy bad on camera.

One word... mantequilla!
"Hello i am Jason Statham and today i ride a panigale v2."
I wonder do you guys intend to make those interwiev style reviews again on those bikes? I am realy curious how it does compare to the 959 :)
Can't wait for the full edit 💦💦💦
I think it is great, but I wonder about the place of the contact key?
If you want to get tucked down behind the fairing on the V2 isn't that a stupid place to plonk the ignition and the key ?
Statham spanking the V2
I have to wonder if the price delta between this and the RSV4 you just posted is even worth it. Why not spend the extra 10k or whatever you saved on track time and tires? :)
I want :-) great lap
Does it come in orc green?
No slouch!
Al would bum the statham into next year, good work bah
Yo, Jason Sfattam, sir...
What's more thrilling, this bike or jumping of ramp with small dirt bike into pile of foam???..
Lol..
Easy. The foam pit
Alessandra Valio in 1:48; 44teeth in 2:00 and me in 2:48 😁
1.54 actually 🤪
44Teeth i can do 2:45 then 👻
Smoooooooooth.
When is the review coming out lads?
i cant wait to try one, Trackday monster for cheap :D
not that cheap.. more money than RSV4 RR, which is THE monster
Cyber Gasty totally depends where you live. Over here the RSV4 is 2x the price.
@@Nassen0f Oups... here is 2 grands less than this Ducati
If you were going to ride mostly on the street would you spend the $17K for the V2 or spend another $3K and get the V4? I'll be buying one or the other this summer. Anyone have thoughts?
No Eicma coverage? :(
No point sadly. It’s become busier and busier every year, and they let anyone with a camera into press day, so you can’t get any clean footage of the bikes
Excellent - when do you get to ride the Street Fighter V4S??
The launch isn’t until March 💔
