Is Ducati an entertainment company? Its new 234hp Panigale V4 R superbike says yes
in soggy Portland, Oregon, dead center in the middle of the hipster city’s ultra-hip Northwest quadrant.Inside and out of the pelting rain , Ducati North America CEO Jason Chinnock— and then proceeded to start the beast up as well , much to the crowd’s aural delight.
The new Panigale V4 R continues Ducati's legacy of bonkers-level performance by making a stunning 234 horsepower from its one-liter V4 power plant.: With a certainly street-illegal but sonorous optional Akrapovic exhaust fitted and 83 footies of torque, which only has to push 379 pounds of bike down the street . It even has lights and turns signals.
Ducati rolled out the “Scrambler Ducati” brand/models just three short years ago, and the lineup has ballooned from a few style variants toranging from the newbie-friendly 399cc Sixty 2 urban buzzer to the Sport 1100 mile crusher. Why so much Scrambling at Ducati? Because the kids love’em, according to Chinnock. Also, Chinnock says they’re popular with the growing number of women riders and “experienced” riders .
The Scrambler variations consist of stylistic differences and escalating displacement levels, and some of the models do indeed change up other important bits like suspension, brakes and other performance enhancements. But the core of the Scrambler Ducati line remains on mission in terms of appearance and performance: They’re sit-up, comfortable, slim-waisted spicy Ducati meatballs adept at carving up urban traffic hellscapes and putting a grin on your mug, no winglets required.
Ducati's ever-expanding line of Scrambler bikes can get dirty, but are best suited for conquering crumbling urban infrastructure.With low prices and a plethora of branded garments to announce your rebeltude, the Scramblers are perhaps one of the best enticements for new riders trying to decide if they should get that new smartphone or actually raise their pulse above 70 with a cool set of wheels.
