Ducati delivered its most significant change to the Panigale V4 platform when it released the 2022 V4 and V4 S in November, 2021. While the Italian firm lived up to its reputation with race-bred aero, ergonomics, and engine, most importantly, the superbike’s revised electronics make it easier to ride for mere mortals.
However, Ducati saved the best for last, and with its final World Premiere event of the 2022 model year, the Bologna brand presents the 2022 Panigale V4 SP2. The top-tier sportbike may represent the tautest version of the Panigale V4 family, but it shares many traits with its siblings. The MotoGP-derived 1,103cc, Desmosedici Stradale V4 engine remains the belle of the ball, still producing 210 horsepower at 12,500 rpm and 90.6 lb-ft of torque at 11,000 rpm.
