As a V2 owner, I live in Taiwan. I agree your pros and cons for V2. I haven’t had issues as you mentioned. My only issue was difficult to start when the bike is cold,and the dealer reset the computer,then the problem is fixed.
Hmmm mine is hard to start when its warm 😂
May I ask what the bike cost in Taiwan and what do you pay in ensurance?
@@CZcams_Globetrotter i dont know sorry
@@CZcams_Globetrotter V2 costs around $38k USD in Taiwan, sounds unbelievable, right? Insurance is cheap, normally it takes about $100 USD a year, depends on your program
@@hugolee2118 $38k is nuts. Might as well go with a v4
I have V2 and riding it in Dubai, I upgraded from SS 950, it’s very good and the heat is not an issue at all despite of the hot climate.
Sometimes and ride for 2-3 hours, I am glad I did that upgrade.
By the way, the bike still fully stocked, I did not install head shield or change the exhaust to Akra yet.
Thanks for info on your ownership🤟
@@Alkhalidi001 is it as hot as the V4 or much much cooler ??
@@TIMHARTTT it’s still hot but less than the V4
I’m only about 30 seconds in but wow this bike is a dream ! Gorgeous
Thank you!
Top vid, I'm a v2 owner and only downside for me is the sidestand and the mirrors, apart from that it's a amazing machine.
I am an owner as well and as far as sidestand are concerned... Ducati designed theirs to be picked at (the very tip) with front of toe right below the footpeg. Takes a little practice, I found, as I discovered after searching thru online forums. I wear track boots primarily and it's been easier to do with my Sidi brand somewhat pointy toes.... Hope this helps if you haven't already figured it out.
what about the heat? I'm dying from my SS heat but I heard v2 is worse?
For me I think the supersport has actually more underseat heat than my v2 .
I wish I could ride on those roads. Beautiful.
Nice review.
Subscribed! Thanks really enjoyed this. Nice relaxed review and also very 'Real World'.
Thanks!🤟
Great Review definitely convinced me to make this my first Liter bike purchase
Best review of this bike thanks man 👌🏻 Might just really lean to this compared to a zx10r
Thanks! I think the V2 is a perfect balance of power and handling for the road and the track. I think you will find the zx10r too fast for the road and you cant really experience the power unless you in a fast group on the track
Great video, very detailed review and I enjoyed the watch.
Thank you!
Nice detailed review! I’m considering getting the v2. For the heat issue, do you feel the heat would be too much of an issue for someone that lives in a moderate and hot climate or can it be manageable and not too much of a problem? I live in California where the weather is moderate to hot all year round. I prefer sport bikes over naked bikes and will mostly be using the bike for urban and canyon riding. No interest in taking it to the track but I may try some track days in the future.
Thanks! I´m sure a ducati dealer in CA will let you test ride one, these bikes get really hot in urban riding so I´ll suggest you test it first.
Lol, cant find any v2 inside a showroom for last 3 months, it’s getting sold out before hitting showroom floor 😩
I live in SoCal (OC to be exact) and I've had my V2 for over a year now. I mostly use it for commuting to and from work and occasionally do some canyon rides with the local Ducati club. I personally think the heat isn't that much of an issue. I wear jeans lined with Kevlar in certain locations. Yes, the heat is noticeable when temps are 85+ out but it's very manageable as long as the bike is moving, especially on the highway. Once you get to a light, you certainly can feel the heat emanating from under the seat and you'll feel it on the insides of your legs. Is it painful? Not so much. If I were to rate the pain from the heat 1-10 (10 being your legs are on fire) I would give it a 4 or 5 at most. During our CA winters, this heat is a welcome reprieve and the heat feels great between your legs. As long as you're not out riding in bumper to bumper traffic in 90+ temps, you will be just fine. I promise.
Try the heat shield kit from Ducati spacers
I just bought one today…my ass feels like it’s on top of an Oven
I love that clutch cover. That's sweet !! Hoping I can find one of these in the next couple weeks... If I got it through Ducati they said it would take until Sept... maybe I will just order a new one
Thanks! Yeah they are hard to get new, I would buy used 🤟
If you bought a ducati of year 2013+ PLEASE get your suspension tuned, they come with the rear shock super stiff from dealer and it hurts so bad. Just find a suspension shop and ask them to tune for your weight.
Nice Video! Those indicators are awesome, never seen them before.
Im currently on yzfr 125 but this is my absolute dream bike!
Thanks!
Thanks for your LT review. V2 is nixed because of the seat heat and ordering a M1k. Danke
Such a good bike I'm still waiting for mine I need to wait till September 😢
what color the white one is really nice
@@arvin8840 I went with red that's ductai signature colour
@@ktm-kr9mm nice
one thing I'd do is paint that metal bronze exhaust part in black .. other than that it's an amazing piece of art
Sheesh just bought the V2 Bayliss hopefully the registration stuff is sorted out next week
Fantastic review, I'm in the final stages of deciding if to go ahead with a purchase, the heat issue is a concern but as I'm in the UK we generally do not have really hot summers
Still undecided as to go for Red or White but I suppose Ducati should be red
Phenomenal video! Subbed!
Thanks!
Good video. The rear shock absorber is a sachs ,not a showa. ✌️
Damn looks like Norway to me^^ Was there on a camping/motorbike vacation. Speed Limit sucks but u can go a little bit overboard on little side streets
Good vid man! I just got the same bike and am thinking of installing the CRG bar end mirrors. Do you think I'd also need to order the bar end adapters to install the mirrors?
No, Hypermotard 950 does not have fuel gauge, the new Monster does.
my bad, you are correct
Hi from Spain! Very nice review! I also have the V2 but the Troy Bayliss edition and I had it for a year and a half now. I’m just curious about some things: 1) how good are the Bridgestone S22 compared to the stock Pirellis? I’ve just changed mine for the Diablo Supercorsa V4 but it’s been raining and I haven’t tried them yet; 2) are the police happy with all of these modifications?; 3) do you have circuits there in Norway? Have you ever drove it in circuit?; 4) how did you manage to drive it so much? I thought in Norway you couldn’t ride too much because of the weather; 5) I’ve also installed the Ducati spacers heat shield, but haven’t tried yet either, let’s see if the heat improves
6) weird thing the issue with the starting. Mine doesn’t do that and sometimes I start the bike and it’s at more than 100 degrees and starts with no problem
Have you considered relocating the regulator / rectifier to get better airflow / away from exhaust?
Great video! How would you compare it to the supersport 950 S?
Snygg hoj! Varit nära att beställa flera gånger men försäkringen är helt outrageous! Blev en streetfighter v2 istället ;)
V2 streetfighter is a great choice, I would probably get it if I didnt have the panigale 🤟
The gopro mount. Won't they rip the paint when you think of removing it off?
Amazing
Ingierstrand for the win! 😎
Hey i have a 04 cbr600f4i and I love the seating position. I am looking for something with more power but a similar seating position. Do you think these two bikes are comparable?
I have no experience with that bike sorry :/
How does it compare against the MT-09 SP?
Great review! Considering a V2 as an upgrade to my MT07, you mentioned the heat; I also live in Norway (Asker) and wanted to check, did you have any issues with heat in recent summers? We've had some periods where its been high 20s so I'm thinking it might get uncomfortable at times.
I also use my bike for commuting, but it's just along the E18 to lysaker so it should be fine for that too :)
It's there but it's not like your leg will be cooking like on the V4. If you wear leather it will be a lot more bearable! If you're in A LOT of stop and go traffic then yes it might get hotter than you'd like but as long as you're not stopping for too long you'll be ok!
Svarer deg på norsk, den er ikke morsom å kjøre i tettsteder på sommeren, den blir fort 104 grader i saktegående kjøring så ubehagelig. Men så fort man ligger over 80 km/t så holder den seg kald nok selv i 30 grader dager på sommeren. 😊
Godt å vite! Takk for svar 😊
Hi! Can you help me a bit? I have a Panigale V2 I love the sound of the 2-cylinder, that's why I bought it, but it's simply so raw, so shaky that it's too much for me. Are there any 2-cylinder supersport engines that run smoother? or is this the case with all manufacturers?
Guess you gonna need to get a CBR 650 or so or Aprilia Tuono 660 but they are lower in power.
I mean the more cylinders the smoother it gets.
I really can recommend the Street Triple.
Maybe you get a Daytona 675 or the Limited Daytona 765 Moto2
hi, does changing duca bike clear clutch cover void your warranty?
Nope no worries
As a v2 owner since 2020 I have to disagree a bit... This bike is NOT a soft riding daily... It's built for the track. Get it tuned to really wake it up, the stock seat is hard as a brick, the suspension is stiff AF and it runs hot as hell. Def not a daily rider and the seating is super aggressive. Enjoy and ride safe.
Thanks for your opinion, Im just telling my experience with it 😊
Hi, What was the 83 degrees Celcius on the meter there?
V2 2020 no problems
How is the suspension for every day road riding
Its good for road use, bumps are noe issue, its not as stiff as other sport bikes🤟
@@scandimc I am tempted to make it my track bike. £15,000 is reasonable for a Ducati sports bike
@@newkurosawa you can get v2 bayliss with ohlins
Take it to the Isle of Man and do a lap vid🎉
V2 must be with pillion seat right?
Yes, I just switched to the seat cover
@@scandimc no disrespect for any race lovers. But I prefer super sexy bikes to rome with girlfriend. so I prefer to use super sexy bikes with pillions. Just saying.
Any how I really enjoyed your video. keep growling.
❤😃
Kult review, jeg vurderer en V2, bor i Råde så blir en tur til Eker Performance. Kan du forklarer mer om penge du har investert i det kosmetiske og hvor mye koster Sercice og forsikring. Kom på besøk en dag til Saltnes, jeg spanderer Tapas. Vi ses.
Service ligger som regel på 3-4k avhengig for årlig service, desmo service er nok rundt det dobbelte ca. Forsikring varierer veldig men typisk rundt 1200kr i måneden for fullkasko.
@@scandimc takk for svar 👏
Racing mirrors?
Skal til stavanger og forhåpentligvis kjøpe en panigale v2 i morgen :)
Looking at how low that cable tie is on your folk leg you could do with putting some preload in your folks as that is at bottom out 😬👍 not sure what your weight is but I had to pretty much max my preload out 🙈
It has never been down this far, i just moved it down ;)
No fuel gauge on my hypermotard 950sp
How do you know when you are getting low on fuel?
A fuel lamp comes on
@@scandimc how much fuel does the fuel light indicate is in the tank?
@@JS-fb6ww It doesnt say but normally 7 liters left in the tank
My fuel light comes on around 100 miles after fill up. I usually get around 180 miles per tank so I reset the trip odometer after I fill up and I ride about 150-160 miles before I fill up again.
@@leepaihan I gave one of your videos a thumbs down due to the fact that you have disabled comments on your CZcams channel. It goes against the very tenents of youtube.
Good vid but need to play at 2x speed, talking speed is too slow
Mgk fans here!
Is that a light smoke wind screen or clear?
Light smoke🤟
And ducati reliability
vart köper du dina extra detaljer ifrån?
Ducati performance, og nettet 👍🏻
Har venta på denne ;)
How tall are you? I'm 195cm, could i fit ok?
Im 186cm and it fits me good, easy flat foot. I cant really tell for you tho.
Which model is this Ducati what year?
2020 V2 panigale 🤟
@@scandimc thank you also good videi
@@morganhill1490 thank you!
Only a few thousand kms in a year?
some of us have more than one bike, and sometimes the weather can be bad. i live in southern cali so 95% of the year is rideable, but other states have riding seasons which are only a few months
@@oxyygin ah yeah that makes sense.
Fikk enda mer lyst på en V2 nå☺️
Løp og kjøp 🤟
hvor høy er du min venn?
186 cm
Wher's the 690 broo???
crashed 3 years ago ;(
@@scandimc oh crap :( good to know you’re still riding. :)
bro i got mine 2020 and i got 17k miles on it lol
Thats impressive!
How was the reliability and maintenance been?
Rode one on track. Totally gorgeous bike. Also a complete turd LOL. I was honestly shocked at how bad it is
how many times are you going to say uhh or uhm
Im not gonna stop 😀
You sound like Borat.
Ok 😁
It doesn't have a fuel gage wtf 😂😂😂
Hahaha it sucks, Ducati keeping their «Racing DNA»
Kolllada mone
Hi bro ❤😢🥰 2024.5.22=Thu Time 11:00,26
I love you.

Chge this your map 🥰 bye bro
Come on, the V4 is of course the prettier bike. We all know that.
It's definitely modern or even futuristic but some people want elegant subtleness. This looks more like classic Ducatis like the 916 or 1098, and the smoothness may prove to be more timeless in 20 years. I'm not saying I like how this or that looks more... But the v2 is more streetable (low rev power and riding position) and cheaper, so I'm getting a v2. Plus, it's also like classic Ducatis in that it's the L twin
Lol you thought you had a “better review” than those who reviewed it before you?
Everything you mentioned has been already said. Furthermore certain mods you have made just didn’t do anything for the bike. The V2 looks better with the mirrors attached. The windscreen looks hideous. And let’s mention the clutch cover. You went red when you should have gone black. You have no taste.
No not that my review is better, I just said that I have more experience on this bike than most journalists who ride these for some hours and then post it on CZcams. I dont really care about that you dont like the mods, so take your negative hate energy somewhere else please😁
I think Juan is 11 or 12 years old maybe?
Damn bruh who hurt you 😹
@@R1___ that’s the best you got?
Some people just have horrible taste, like the creator. All I was saying, the V2 stock has no need for mods.
@@juanzamora6228 I can understand that you like it stock, but that doesnt mean that everyone else should have the same taste as you do. Just be more respectful Juan thats all.
nice
