Ducati Panigale V2 Review
Вставка
- Опубліковано 16 чер 2020
- Ducati has been creating V-Twin fantasies for motorcyclists for decades and, even with the wonder that is the new Panigale V4, they are still giving props to the engine configuration that they are famous for with the Panigale V2. Paul gives you our review of this beautiful motorcycle and explains what's new with this generation.

This was the shortest and most defined review I've ever seen! No shit talking no nothing, just upto the point and perfect!
Thanks, Souvik. That's what we like to hear!
Definitely looking forward to seeing more reviews, this was one of the best short comprehensive review about V2 on UA-cam, the cinematography is pretty impressive
Thanks! We're glad you liked it. We look forward to making more for you to see!
Where were you all these years? This has to be one of the best review with mind blowing visuals.. you should definitely do more.. you are a tough competition to other reviewers out there.. keep going bro.. love from India..
Thanks so much! Our shop has been crazy-busy with the current high demand that is going on in the sport but we can not wait to make some more videos. Hopefully things are going well with the riding in India!
This video was awesomely produced. Nice job.
FYI... We're picking up the 20th Anniversary Bayliss edition this week and I can't wait to ride it 😀
One of the best motorcycle reviews I've seen.
P.S. Little too wide in that last corner, wasn't it? LOL Great review thou. Subscribed!
Thanks - that's great to hear! And yeah, John was avoiding a a bad patch in the road and just rode it out since traffic wasn't an issue.
Very Informative, thakns! I went with V4, same weight and size, but double the power and value,
👍like and comment back!👍

This is the best review of v2 ive ever seen.....This bike never looked so breathtaking anywhere else.... Ducati should use this as there promotional video.
That's great to hear, Aman - thanks!
Yet another great review from Apex. Well done !!
We're glad you enjoyed it!
very informative, thanks! I went with V4.
👍like and comment back!👍

Sick video editing skills... I'm running to the dealership right now because of this video!
You could pass by the roads we used when we filmed this on your way home! 😁
Beautiful review!🤩
Brilliant cinematography, great review. I fully agree the heat is the only negative on this bike but it’s tolerable over here in England (it’s actually quite helpful when it’s cold out)
It's true - it's only in certain conditions that it really rears its ugly head. The rest of the ride quality is so good that it is worth a bit of occasional roasting! Very cool that you own one - enjoy!
Apex Cycle I made the mistake of riding home on a hot day with full cold whether gear on, not great. But in my summer stuff it’s absolutely fine. Only owned it a week and it’s without doubt the most exciting thing I’ve ever been on. Keep up the great videos mate
Top level cinematography & editing !!
Thank you 🙌! It's all done in house and Paul and Will are magicians both behind the camera, with the editing, and at the Service Counter of our bike shop!
Proper review! It's all a bunch of kids bloging on bikes nowadays. Thank you
That's what we like to hear! If you saw Paul off-camera - he's really just a big kid too! 😄
Nicely done Paul ! Excellent editing work as well. Very slick review.
Keren banget motornya
Terima kasih! Kami juga menyukainya! Diterjemahkan oleh Google.
@@apexcycle1481 sama sama
Great review, to the point professional and informational. Keep up the good work.
bro it was the best review I have seen and the cinematography is just awesome !!!!!!!!!
Wow - thanks, Dark Night!
It'*s a hot bike, like other vehicles from italy
Perfect voice and perfect Video
Thanks, Kenz! We passed on your kind words to Paul and was quite flattered!
These are the type of reviews the internet was built for.
Thanks, Aditya!
Hey! I think I bought my monster from you guys! I had no idea your channel was so well done!
That's awesome! Thanks!
With the heat kit fitted and the deal with shaking mirrors got to be one of the best midrange sports bikes out there 🔥🇮🇹
We couldn't agree more!
Great video. Nice editing.
this is what I expect from youtube
Brilliant review ... best I've seen on UA-cam. Looking forward to taking delivery of mine in the next few days.
Thanks, we're glad you liked it. And congratulations on the new ride - you're going to love it!
thanks for sharing! I decided to go with V4, double the power, same weight, just more money but way more bike
👍like and comment back!👍

Incredible video. Thank you!
Thank you for watching. We're glad you liked it!
Brilliant stuff looking forward to more!
That's good to hear! We are always looking forward to getting the next one out!
Great informative review. All the footage of bike is on whole another level. 🔥 loved it.
Thanks a ton - that's great to hear!
Amazing review. That bike worth all the effort and patience to have one day before contry regulation forbids to ride in some places gas powered vehicles ( 2030 in France! )
Oh, man - that's a scary thought, isn't it? Hopefully the ownership of vehicles with internal combustion hangs around for a long while, even if the sale of new ones becomes outlawed. 🤞🏿
The best review...... the best quality video and audio..... hats off to the technical team.......
Thanks! We had a lot of fun with this one due, in large part, to the fact that we are in love with this bike!
Great bike, but an even better review with fantastic edits and cinematography. Keep up the good work.
Thanks! This was a particularly fun one to make!
I liked the way that was filmed, great video thanks🤘
Thanks - glad you liked it! 😊
Well done Apex definitely will continue to shop and visit you guys
Thanks, Dario - for being a customer and a UA-cam supporter!
Great video, nice transitions, good detail. Love my V2.
Thanks - and congratulations on owning one! It would be amazing to have one to ride every day.
@@apexcycle1481 thanks, it is something that's for sure. Not the fastest for the money, but it's not about speed or money, it's just a completely different feeling about riding it.
Beautiful piece of machinery. I would love to own a Ducati one day. Great video.
Thanks! They are something else, aren't they? 😍
awesome video from start to end
Thank you 😀!
HOW in the WORLD DO YOU HAVE ONLY 950 SUBSCRIBERS?!
Baby steps!
Wonderful mate just wonderful
Thanks!
Brilliant review, makes me love my V2 more 😊
Not launched in India yet.
It'll be worth the wait!
@@ROCKYOJ it's essentially the 959
@@ROCKYOJ Either he is lying
Or he has a 959
I would just keep it in first and second gear to hear that sound🤤👌
It is heavenly, isn't it? 😃
@@apexcycle1481 oh yessir
Beautiful review! Anyone know the name of the 80’s sounding synth track?
First time I found your channel. Really good review and really nice production of your segment. Sub’d immediately. Thanks for the great content!
Got to ride this for a day while my bike was in service. What a great bike. Perfectly tuned for the street, sounds great, really agile and stops great. I had a V4 Pani for a bit and this is a much better street bike. Not to mention that the V4’s heat problems were worse.
It's awesome to hear some firsthand, real world commentary - thanks, Scott! And thanks for the sub too! We are extremely jealous that you have a V4 as your regular rider, BTW.
Yu is rj see chhii
Great video! I only dislike the fact that we can’t run the bike on day time running light in Canada like in the US. This small detail prevent me from buying the bike. Sounds stupid but it’s important to me.
Best bike review ever
That's awesome! Thanks, Janko! You're not a family member of Paul's, are you? 😁
@@apexcycle1481 not what I know at least
I love this bike 😍 ..
Shut up and take my money! Currently riding a 2019 monster 821. But this is the dreams right there!
That's awesome that you have an 821 - a dream-bike in its own right! This would make a nice partner for it in your garage... 😁
The music starting at 1:10 sounds like DaftPunk from the Tron movie
wtf was @ 4.36 .... great review, great details and info !
I haven’t been counting how many times I’ve watched this!!?
We appreciate it, ridebyben! Next best thing to riding it!
Great review, I am biased though as I bought one!
Congratulations! We would love to have one in our own garages!
I want it !!! And I won’t rest till it’s mine !!!!!!
That's the spirit! 🤩
Great video, what road was this recorded on?
A good chunk of the video was filmed on Scenic Drive just off Hwy 24 on the way out of Cambridge, ON on the way to Paris, ON. It's not a super long stretch, but quite nice!
From where you got the intro background music?
tf you doing with less than 1k subs with such quality
We feel the same way! We squeeze these in when we can while working in a busy bike shop, so we'll be the first to admit that our release schedule is a little sporadic. We hope to increase the output in the near future. Thanks for the comment!
Nice review... Can you do the new Supersport 950? :D
That's a good idea - especially with the redesign for 2021. We'll have to see if we have one left over to demo. Thanks for the suggestion!
Awesome review, well done.
Is it possible to get the location area. Looks like a good route to ride. Thanks
This is a lovely, if relatively short, spot just off Highway 24 between Cambridge and Paris in Southwestern Ontario. It is appropriately named Scenic Drive. Thanks for noticing!
Damn... The heat is a deal breaker, I was planning to buy this in the Philippines...
What's the song called that plays between 1:25 and 3:05?
Nice video. Would definitely consider this bike as opposed to the v4.
The V4 is incredible and all overkill in the best possible way. The V2 is still a lot of bike and it takes everything you love about the V4 and makes it more suitable to daily life.
Apex Cycle
Thanks: my current computer is a 300cc Honda forza 300 scooter after many bigger bikes. But like you said a Ducati is all about how it makes you feel when you pull it out of the garage.
This is a really nice review, congrats for that mate. I have a question about the seat height; I want this bike but I’m not so tall, I’m 1.68 cm (5,5 ft) and I listened that the seat is 840 mm, It will be hard or impossible for me ride this bike? Keep going and ride safe. 🔥
We have a member of our Parts staff here who is 5' 4" tall and we had them sit on the V2 to see the result. It resulted in extreme tip-toes when straddling the seat but, with their foot on the rear brake and the left foot down, that foot was totally flat on the ground and the bike was at a natural lean - not too far extended. Considering that this would be your position at a stop, I don't think it would be impossible to ride at all. You might have to hop off to back it into a parking spot, but that's no biggie. Hopefully that helps and thanks for the positive feedback!
Apex Cycle Thank you very much for the information and for doing all that testing to give me an answer, I feel very good that you did. You have great content and this kind of attention is what a subscriber is looking for, keep it up and you will go as far as you want. 🤘🏼
I think every review for the V2 and V4 I've seen references the heat as their sole only complaint. I have to really ask though is it THAT much worse than say the 999/or 1098's were? My 999 kicks out the heat pretty good when at a stoplight during mid-day to the point where I think my pants are melting to the side of my leg and it's all from the pipes traveling under the seat out the back. With the underslung exhaust systems for both the V2 and V4 I just don't see how it could be nearly as bad even with all the extra shielding and framework there is between. I think the gripes go a bit overboard from where Ducati has come and while I've yet to ride one I'd like to see someone compare it directly to see if it's justified or not.
You may be right - the heat is likely down from the days of underseat exhaust. Those comments are mostly for those who have never ridden a Ducati and it gave us the opportunity to at least have one gripe. We wouldn't want the review to seem too glowing!

How don't you have more views?
We think that it is likely because we don't post as often as we would like. We do these in-house in our spare time between helping customers at our motorcycle shop and that spare time can be rare to find! It's kind of you to ask, though.
Video is well done, but if you are going to portray a rider on public roads, you MUST adhere to the rules of the roads for the sake of young or new riders. Crossing the solid yellow into oncoming traffic in a corner is not the way to win over new long lasting customers. If the rider is skilled, then keep it on your side of the road should have been easy. If it's simply a mistake, then edit it out of the video. Not staying in marked lanes is not only a chargeable offence, it is outright dangerous. Think of the full range of riders that will be watching your videos. Even though this is not a beginner bike, a beginner may be watching it. Otherwise again, great quality video of a great bike.
Need the corse paint😊
This or wait for v2 street fighter ???
This is the question, isn't it? We often wrestle with full-on sportbike vs supernaked. The naked bike often wins because it is more enjoyable on the street, where most of us do the majority of our riding, but we do miss the aggression of the supersport in this case. It's why we all want full collections of bikes!
The one and ONLY reason I will not buy it is the NO gas gauge.
I have an R9T without one and I've gotten used to it. I set the trip meter and figure around 160-180 miles I'll need fuel. Plus a reserve light comes on when you have less than a gallon left or so.
But the heat.... Ducati. Sort that out please
if i knew when I'm going to die .. I'll buy one a month before 😂
What is it's mileage ?
Please tell 🙏
Ducati has claimed 47 MPG but most of the moto-press articles we can find put it at between 39 MPG and 44.8 MPG. That equals 7.2L / 100 kms to 6.3L / 100 kms. Hopefully that helps.
Typical Indian mentality. Like you're going to afford it anyway!
1.00... which is the another bike
To the left of Paul and the V2 is the Multistrada 950 with spoked wheels. Above them, you can just catch a glimpse of a 2010 KTM RC8.
Wow, Italians know how to do beautifull bikes for sure, (and no i'm not Italian).
Bikes, cars, art, architecture, fashion and food....
@@silvsiri3478 Agree, how ever bikes is my bigest passion
@@silvsiri3478 And soon maybe fotboll too
959 subscribes- 959 panigale
Nice!
This is Apex Legends.
Oooo - we like the sound of that! 👍
@@apexcycle1481 YEAH!!!!
Im 5'7 and that seat ht is too high for me.lol

Great design, Great power, Fantastic bike but the maintenence comes at the cost of your bankruptcy.
They are getting better in that department. Audi's influence is showing in longer service intervals. But it is true that performance like this doesn't come too cheap.
Almost ate shit @4:33!
🤫🤭
Apex Cycle 😂😂😂
Ducati v2 or BMW s1000r is better
Sometimes you want the roar of a V-Twin, sometimes you want the howl of an inline-4. Might as well just get both. Your insurance agent would remember you by name if you did. 😁
4:35 and.......... you're dead
whahaha i wanted to say that aswell ahah.....expensive bikes dont buy skilled riders haha
Buy zx10r instead 🌼
Or one of each! Why should Jay Leno be the only one with a fleet of fun stuff? 😎
I love ducati. But butt burning is not good!
It's mostly noticeable if you get stuck in traffic or if the day is already quite warm. It's welcome on a cool day at traveling speed. Well, mostly welcome...
@@apexcycle1481 thanks. My country is hot. I dream to have one but might have to give up then. Still love it.....
Real Ducatistas don't care its a reminder is a Duc
This is not to be driven on busy roads. I guess heat won't be an issue on long and empty strechs or on tracks.
Gets hot
I always wonder how bias the reviews are
We try to be as objective as possible. At the end of the day, our videos represent our opinion as experienced motorcyclists but everyone's experience is different. I guess there will always be some personal biases that occasionally pop up.
Im a Pastor
20 years after the 996. Less power in the midrange, and not as iconic. This is progress?
I guess if you see this as the evolution of the 748 and the V4 as the newest member of the lineage that dates back to the 996 then it can be seen as progress. 😏
Mechanically, nice. Style, sucks.
Have you seen one in person? I have to admit that the looks seemed to be lacking for me as well until I saw it in person. Then it was nothing but, "wow"! - Craig
please stop the hanging off as soon the bike has an angle more than 3 degrees. That looks so wannabe...
anyway...the vid very good 👍👍
Excellent review in my opinion. In regards to the hanging off comment I disagree. The rider in the video clearly shows he has racing experience and knows what he is doing , especially at the pace shown in the video. I bet some speed limits were broken that day.
It's funny that you should think he looks like a wannabe as this is our first video using a very accomplished road-racer. He rocks a track like you wouldn't believe!
@@apexcycle1481 maybe you are right. And no doubt the driver is a very good road racer. Anyway it looks a little strange, when the bikeangle is far away from a necessary hangoff 😉
I did not like the absence of life in this review. It is like a cliche from an endless bike journals... sorry
No apologies needed. Paul is always toning himself down in the name of professionalism so it's good to hear some feedback that he get let loose a little. 😊
