In 2020, Ducati updated the Panigale 959 to create the Panigale V2 – an evolution in just about every way that also got V4-inspired styling to look like their flagship superbike. Ducatis focus was not about ultimate horsepower but on something approachable and easier to ride – the average rider will be able to ride faster for longer on this platform. MCN said, “no current sportsbike offers such a blissful blend of power and handling or goes to such lengths to flatter its rider.”
The 955cc Superquadro V2 engine produced a claimed 155 hp and 76.7 lb-ft of torque, and it was easier to take full advantage of thanks to a up/down quickshifter and the six-axis IMU from the V4 which gave riders access to eight-level cornering traction-control, three-level cornering ABS, four-level wheelie control, and three-level engine braking settings. MCN continues: “on fast flowing corners the Panigale V2 has so much poise, mechanical grip and not an excess of power to deal with, the electronics are rarely troubled.”
The Panigale V2 didn’t just look the part – it performed as well.
