Ducati’s red-hot Panigale V4 S stars in this week’s MC Commute review.

When it comes to superbikes, no one does it like Ducati. Case in point, its new red-hot (both figuratively and literally) Panigale V4 S. The Panigale V4 S is Ducati’s top-shelf, 190-hp road-legal sportbike that’s engineered for experienced riders who want to smear Pirelli rubber on the road and track.

It’s powered by Ducati’s recently engineered 1,103cc V-4 engine that was engineered using its vast MotoGP experience. In typical Italian fashion, the engine delivers an exhilarating experience like few other motorcycles made. It’s paired to an electronics package that is near the top of the class with a re-engineered chassis that is vastly more competent than the 1199/1299. Together, it’s the ideal recipe for eating miles of asphalt.

But don’t take our word for it; watch the Ducati Panigale V4 S in action as we ride to the Motorcyclist office in Southern California. Make sure to leave us a comment and share with us your thoughts on Ducati’s latest and greatest sportbike.
