Vehicle Description

The Panigale V4 R brings the performance, technology and prestige of the Ducati World Superbike Team to the road. The letter “R” has always been used to signal those models constructed using the same technologies as Ducati race bikes. With 221 HP and weighing in at 193 kg, the V4 R offers the best weight/power ratio among 1000 cc super sports bikes: 0.87 kg/HP, or rather 1.15 HP driving every kg of the bike at maximum power, for impressive acceleration. The Ducati V4 R engine is born to race: 4 cylinders on two 90° V-shaped banks, Desmodromic and with a single counter-rotating transverse crankshaft.

The Desmosedici Stradale R engine stands out for its 998 cc size, in order to fall within Superbike regulation limits, and its small, lightweight dry clutch that replaces the wet of the Panigale V4. Developed in synergy with Ducati Corse, the racing soul of the Panigale V4 R is clear to see, from its aerodynamic design to the chassis complete with Ohlins componentry, from its performance to the sound of the Desmosedici Stradale R engine.

The use of lightweight components and typical racing solutions have boosted maximum power and torque, despite the engine size having been reduced by 105 cc. The exceptional performance of this road-going engine, the most powerful ever built by Ducati, defines the unique character of the Desmosedici Stradale R. It is a true racing engine, with fierce engine torque delivery and an instantaneous response upon twisting the throttle.

The moulded aluminium pistons with single compression ring plus oil ring, as well as the four titanium piston rods that make for a weight saving of 100 g each. The dedicated profiles of the Desmodromic system’s four camshafts make for greater lift of the valves (the intake valves are in titanium), which are equipped with titanium half-cones, a solution only seen on race engines.

With respect to a wet clutch with the same characteristics, the dry clutch is more compact and lightweight, has a smaller external diameter and can use springs to lock the more pliable discs. It therefore allows for reduced engine width in correspondence with the clutch side crankcase and a reduction in the clutch group’s moment of inertia.

The chassis of the Panigale V4 R has been optimised for racing. The “Front Frame” satisfies stiffness targets set by Ducati Corse thanks to special structural intervention, while the Öhlins suspension is a professional mechanical unit, replacing the semi-active event-based suspension of the Panigale V4 S in light of the specialist track use of the V4 R. The Panigale V4 R mounts the Ohlins NPX 25/30 pressurised fork with 43 mm diameter and and TiN treated stems, and the Ohlins TTX36 shock at the rear. The Ohlins steering damper also does away with electronic adjustment in favour of a mechanical system. With respect to a traditional system, the pressurised system reduces the risk of oil cavitation to a minimum, for better absorption of any unevenness, guaranteeing stability and support during braking which, for the rider, means greater feeling at the front. The chassis modifications are rounded out with a swing-arm pivot that can be positioned according to four levels.
