Watch a Ducati Panigale V4 Snow Bike Get Stranded in Freezing Temperatures

Ducatis, like Ferraris or MV Agustas, should never find their way into a scrapyard. So, seeing someone take a wrecked one and get it rolling again is heartwarming for us gearheads. But what Matt Spears did to his Panigale V4 goes far beyond getting it rolling. After showing the world how well a V4 rips off-road, he decided to turn it into a snow bike. 

Well, he put a paddle tire on the rear and a ski at the front. So, it's not as put together as some of the snow bikes we've featured here, but that also makes it more badass. 

Spears' plan was to go as far into Utah's backcountry as possible, which happens to be one of the coldest places in the US, thanks to a cold air trap. Temperatures can dip to -60 degrees Fahrenheit, so it's one of the last places you want to get stranded overnight.
