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.
