Learning

Discussion in 'Newbies Hangout' started by ChrisV4, Dec 14, 2021.

  1. Hi to all of you from Sweden
    I have been riding sport motorcycles since 1991 but never a Ducati.
    Although being a massive fan of icons like the 916 I have always found them to be too unreliable.
    I have raced since 1993 and since about 10 years I have given up on street riding completely.
    Now I have really found a big interest in actually buying my first Ducati. The V4 seems like a great bike and since I do not race the national SBK championship anymore the 1100cc engine is not a problem. It would be great with a V4R but the price tag is.... Not really attractive even for a 2018.

    Please forgive me if I ask many stupid things but I am here to learn.
    Ducati is a different thing from the Japanese bikes and the R1 I currently race.

    Cheers
    /Christian

  2. Welcome to the forum Christian. There is plenty of knowledge about the Panigale V4 on here and most will give you a sensible answer to your questions :D Andy
     
  3. Welcome. There are a couple of build threads for v4 track bikes on here worth looking for and there’s always @Mary Hinge and his cobbled together thing ;)
