The Streetfighter V2 inherits the DNA of the Panigale, highlighting it with an essential and muscular design. Mass concentrated at the front makes for a sporty, almost athletic look, which makes the bike more agile and responsive to rider commands, for an experience that is always engaging and dynamic.

Muscular and aggressive, the Streetfighter V2 is a dynamic sculpture. Its proportions and elongated form make it look like a predator ready to pounce, while closely positioned parts and purposely deconstructed volumes give a robotic feel.

Derived from the Panigale V2, the bike adopts the philosophy of luxurious and sophisticated surfaces, even extending the painted areas. Like the tail section, where integration with the seat creates a monolithic effect, reminiscent of that of the DesmosediciGP.

The front end is clean and essential, drawing attention to the brand-new full LED headlight, which takes an already iconic design and makes it even more current and technological. The DRL contributes to creating an immediately recognizable profile, characterized by the fierce look that embodies the true essence of the Streetfighter. 

The new V2 engine sees Ducati take yet another innovative step forward with a Euro5+ approved engine that is up to 9 kg lighter than the previous Superquadro and approximately 5.8 kg lighter than the Testastretta Evoluzione and the Desmodue that equips the Scrambler®. A project that harnessed sophisticated engineering solutions, such as aluminium cylinder liners and the positioning of the pump in the crankcase. An innovative engine that introduces the electronic variable timing system (IVT) to improve the quality of delivery, offering the rider a linear response at low rpm, robust torque mid-range, and strong top-end performance.

Thanks to the Intake Variable Timing (IVT) system, the new Ducati twin delivers very linear torque right from low rpm, with a prompt and exciting throttle response, and sports performance at high rpm. This is because the IVT system intervenes by progressively varying the timing of the intake valve control across a 52° range, via a timing actuator on the end of the camshaft.

The 90° architecture of the new V2 engine continues the tradition of Ducati sports engines. Slender and with real personality in its tone and delivery, the V configuration of the cylinders also ensures the intrinsic balancing of first order forces, with no need for a countershaft to eliminate vibration.

The rider triangle is redesigned from scratch to ensure versatility and control, without limiting track performance. The variable-section aluminium handlebar guarantees a secure grip and the ideal riding position. A seat height of 837 mm allows feet to safely and easily reach the ground, while the sculped tank ensures perfect feeling through every turn, particularly when hanging off the bike. 

The suspensions are fully adjustable, to allow the rider to customize the set-up of the new Ducati V2 naked. The Panigale V2 and Streetfighter V2 are equipped with Marzocchi forks and Kayaba shock absorbers, while the V2 S versions offer their rider Öhlins forks and shock absorbers, as well as a lithium-ion battery that reduces weight.

The Streetfighter V2 frame is a lightweight and efficient monocoque, which uses the engine as a stressed element. The double-sided swingarm is inspired in design by the Hollow Symmetrical Swingarm of the Panigale V4 and offers the same benefits in terms of stability when coming out of corners and feeling when riding on the track, where it allows the rider to make the most of modern slick tyres.

The new cast wheels mount Pirelli Diablo Rosso IV tyres in sizes 120/70 and 190/55, which combine handling and footprint, enhancing the sporty qualities of the Streetfighter V2. 

The new Streetfighter V2 is equipped with a Brembo system that ensures high braking efficiency accompanied by precision and sensitivity at the brake lever, with excellent linearity between applied force and braking response. The front calipers are M50 monobloc with four 30 mm pistons, featuring a compact design that allows for a weight saving of 140 grams per caliper compared to the previous M4.32. The monobloc construction offers rigidity and resistance to deformation in the most extreme braking, which in turn translates into improved precision and sensitivity at the brake lever. The front system is controlled by a Brembo PR16/21 radial pump, which combines a high level of feeling with braking power that is a benchmark for the segment. The double front disc is 320 mm, while the rear disc is 245 mm.
