Everything else seems slow
What remains? Those who use the Ducati Streetfighter V4S will be left speechless. It seems impossible to get used to this primal force (on the other hand, it is also impossible to keep your driving licence while trying out). There are a number of power-naked bikes, like the KTM Super Dukes,that have impressed us hard. But, let's be clear: the Ducati is three more numbers sharper. Not purely in terms of driving performance, but in terms of the overall concept. Suddenly, everything you've driven so far seems to be under-powered.
If you are looking for this tiny tip in a pointed target group, you are right here. Ducati has put the ultimate aggro bike on two wheels. Everyone else should not be blinded by the suitability for everyday use: it is no shame not to like the Duc.
Hm. It wouldn't be a shame, but it's a shame ;)
The test bike was provided to us by Ducati Hamburg.
This fits any
The question remains as to the target group of the bike. Of course, you have to be able to live with the advantages of the agile Naked Bikes, as well as with their disadvantages such as the non-existent windscreen. But apart from that, the Honda, like so many models from this manufacturer, suits virtually anyone – it's never a bad choice.
Only that with passion, the Japanese would have to do even better.
The test bike was provided to us by Motofun in Kaltenkirchen.
