Since I've got to put a few hundred break in miles on the 2018 Panigale V4S I figured I'd take you guys along for a ride and give you my first impressions on the bike.

Mark Tomlin great question. I wanted to put some miles on this one and some heat cycles since it’s a much larger engine and a first generation. We will be finishing the break in on the Dyno next week. 👍
I just freakin' love my V4. Had it on the track the other day and it is AWESOME!!! I think you will have a blast customizing this beast and the winner is gonna get a bike out of this world! Love your series by the way :-)
Thank you so much and congrats on your V4 man! I couldn't agree more. It's such a wonderful bike. I'm very happy with the changes Ducati made with this thing. I think its a huge step in the right direction for them.
This bike is going to be insane. I think this bike is going to change your channel. the exposure you already have is going to be eclipsed. Awesome. Stay humble.
This first ride review was great You talked about the bike & its amazing features in detail which is a huge plus for those of us interested in acquiring such a beast in the future . That Duc in stock format is amazing as it is adding an Akra full system will without any doubt give this Duc some power delivery like no other Your list of mods planned for the V4 is impressive on paper just imagining what the final looks & function will be of this build is making me drool already .
I have been in love with Aprilia rsv4 rf and now I have a new dream bike. This is going to be one of those bikes you keep and one day when your boy is old enough would dream of owning and riding it years after production.
The temp gauge actually sounds easy, you said three bars the first when it’s too cold the second when it’s ready or just right and the third when it’s too hot sounds even more simple and takes all the guess work out when waiting for the right temp to ride.
I Rode that Bike 2 Months Ago & BOY OH BOY !💥....THE MOST MONSTERIOUS BIKE Ever Produced by DUCATI 🔥💕💥..VERY QUICK ! SERIOUSLY..I✋ don't have WORDS about this HOTTIE 🔥💕💥
Can't wait to see what you do with it, you'll have to actually keep one for a change! Your review is very similar to mine. I had my 1299 and this V4 side by side and they are honestly similar looking with the exception of a few areas.
Hey jaret nice review Wanted to know how much difference is there between v4 and v4s performance and are they exact same in look And will u use wrap on this v4s to get exact look of Speciale ... bcz Speciale paint is just wow isint it??
They look exactly the same. They have exactly the same engine as well. The main difference is the electronic ohlins suspension and the light weight forged wheels. 99% of the riding population wouldn't notice a difference between the two if I'm honest. And no we are doing a full carbon build on the V4 with red glossy accents :)
Sick bike ,can't wait for the build, can't win it but what the hell. Am I the only one that thinks Christina would luck crazy riding that bike , I'm sure Alpinestars do high heal boots.
I’m picking up my Speciale this weekend. I own an aprilia RSV4 also. Ducati HP numbers are all over the place. Need to see what the dyno says. At any rate Ducati has big shoes to fill if it wants to make a bike better than the RSV4 and the sound of the aprilia makes the hair stand up on the back of your neck.
I'm really curious to see what you think compared to the RSV4. I've ridden both but it was 2 years since I had ridden the Aprilia so it was tough to remember...keep me posted and congrats on the Speciale...gorgeous bike.
You'll probably love the V4 since the RSV4 is one of the worst bikes to ride comfort wise.( didn't say the bike was bad before you roast me...lol ) As for numbers well we all know how the internet works and how much people love to say whatever makes their favourite bikes look good but to have done close to 900 kms on a V4 I can say its a solid 200 hp bike wouldn't be surprised it would dyno 188-192 depending where and when during the year it's dynoed. But in the end it's not about HP it's about how it feels under the rider you can have the best bike in the world if you can't be on it more then 30mins or can't drive it with ease then it's not what you need hope this makes sense for you ?
Really enjoyed this review video mate just like the old days 👌 i know your very busy with the bike build series but you should try doing more of these videos if you get chance
Thanks Adam I really enjoyed getting back to a first ride as well. I've been wanting to do more of these but just been having a hard time finding dealers who are willing to let us take bikes out to be honest...it was much more easier in Cali.
waiting for transformation , & i"m 100% sure you doing great work you are awesome jaret campisi i always waitin for your next uplode. all the best BIG THUMPS FOR JARET CAMPISI & TEAM
How is the engine heat after riding a few hours. I have an S1000RR and the heat is unbearable on the left leg on a moderate hot day. What would you say about the V4's engine heat?
Yes awesome motor , I always swore by those V4,s back in the early 80,s with the Honda’s , I,m still in love with the oval piston Honda which is a V4 as well , Ducati has hit its mark with this V4 , oh and teens your a sweetheart !
Riding footage I'm using the mic that comes with the Sena 20s. I actually add some bass in post production to help it sound better as well. And greetings from the US!
Hi Jaret, big fan here, I've been watching your channel for a couple of years now, from fitness to motovlog, and I enjoy the work you do with Dado on these bikes for the Patreon. Just a thought here- I understand that the guys who are supporting the Patreon pretty much choose which bike you upgrade(it's logical I get that), why don't you and dado upgrade some of the older bikes and therefore make it unique? Since I'm ducati fan just from the top of my head, fully packed 999R superbike, now that would be AWSOME.. Much love and greetings from Croatia. P.S sry for bad grammar(second language)
Thank you so much man I'm glad you are enjoying the videos! And we actually did think about that but its pretty hard to come by parts for the older ducati super bikes so it could make the series a bit tough to do in a timely manor. Definitely not ruling it out but for now we will continue to do newer bikes.
Don't let teens ride it and as per previous comment on the carbon Duc, use full beans on break in... Also, the bike has a built-in cutoff when stopped in first gear/neutral with the clutch pulled in, it cuts out the rear two cylinders from firing.
Hey buddy, I wrote a comment on your last vlog, which was about to get a r6 or panigale. I just went down to the local Ducati dealer checked out the 959 and V4. I just in love with V4, it's freaking awesome bike!! Also I found out that riding a V4 even more comfy than a 959. However, could u tell if I'm not going to track a lot, do I really need to get the v4s? I just felt the v4 is enough, but I'm not sure the s model, is that worth the extra? Thank you!!
Honestly if it was my personal bike I would just buy the base model. The S model just gives you electronic ohlins suspension which 99% of riders won't use to their maximum potential anyway. The S also comes with lightweight wheels but I'd buy carbon wheels anyway. And finally a lithium ion batter which you can replace yourself in about 20 min for $150.
Jaret Campisi haha gotcha! Can't wait to get mine and put some mods on! I love all your vlogs! If you have any chance come to Newport Beach, just let me know, we can hang out!
Hell yeah man we might be moving back out to Cali later this year so that would be a lot of fun! And let me know what you think of the bike when you get it!
I've never gotten a chance to ride a V4 (at least not yet :P) so could you tell me how it compares in a sense of smoothness to the CBR1000RR? From what I hear it is the smoothest V4 on the market, but do you think it is smoother than a inline 4?
Its not quite as smooth as an inline 4 but its pretty damn close to be honest...the V4 still has a bit more character and in my opinion, that character makes it much more fun to live with for a longer period of time.
Yeah, I've always felt like a lot of the inline 4's lack character, and with this new V4 I think you get the character of a Ducati Twin and the smoothness of a Inline 4, Its the best of both worlds. Ducati did really good :)
Abdur Rehman so true if I was spending my own hard earned money inline 4 would be the only way but if I won’t this I definitely would like to see what its all about
I know u've been getting a lot of crap about this build, but it is a step up and there are no other channels that do these customizations, so I'm sure all the ppl that have been giving u crap (including me) will continue to support u. Best part about this bike tho is the engine. Wonder what it sounds like with the akro on there.
I love the design with the aluminum frame member. It is essentially integrating the structural and dynamic design of the bike into the esthetic design. To see this I think it helps to study how the structural dynamics work with in the engineering of the bike compared to the older 'air box frame' design of the 1199/1299. With this design they are essentially showcasing the new superior engineering and integrating it into the esthetics. I think it is the most beautiful panigale ever made. I'm a little disappointed in the design of the new v4r. I think Ducati has compromised the new design with the v4r and listened a little too closely to the negative comments many have made about the new design of the v4/v4s. I really think over time the v4,v4s as it was released in 2017 will go down as one of the most beautiful Ducati's ever made. Love the bike build series btw. Keep up the good work.
Very nice bike very happy for you guys :) one thing the self cancelling turn signals isn't new tech bmw has that on their bikes since 2010 but it is really nice to have only thing I hate about the system is if you lean it when stopped :say to look at something on the ground they cancel out maybe the new models only cancel them if the bike is rolling but its only a minor gripe. If your riding in full leather gear you dont feel the heat on this bike the 1299 ALWAYS felt like you had a fire pit under your ass it was terrible even with the carbon shields they gave you it was just brutal. I actually cancelled the DDC on my s1000rr's race bikes I can better adjust everything with aftermarket set ups. The electronic kits on the bikes are great for Mr. and Miss street drivers and weekend racers as they don't need to do anything, no more sag adjusting and worrying about tires waring out from bad suspension set ups because of drivers weights and driving styles. This bike is one bad MF but this is far from a beginner bike or even for a casual rider. I got the chance to get one last weekend for some testing from my dealer to see if I wanted to change stables next season I was very impressed with how far Ducati got from last years bike to this bike light years apart so I'll have some thinking to do since bmws been a sponsor for a while now. First world problems I guess lol
haha I think you are spot on with your assessments. And I would say this and the BMW/Aprilia are all tough choices for a track guy. It would really just come down to personal preference. I think the 2019 S1000RR is going to be pretty insane as well so you might just want to hold off :)
yeah I would definitely never own/track an RSV4 really don't like the bike and it's brutal uncomfortable to ride but it's not a bad bike just not for me. As for 2019 well I would assume that I will get some info on the new S1K soon since I ride for them from what I heard it will be something outta this world so I can't wait to see if the hype will be better then their transition in 2016 which was just update and nothing really new. One things for sure bikes today are brutal and they are all very fast and the turn ins are fast it all comes down to how you feel on it. but I hate all the electronics on bike today as they interfere in your riding on the track the bike drives more then the rider does now. For the street it's perfect people need those things because many riders buy more then they can actually drive, kids these days all they think about is HP's and top speeds and they almost always forget to turn and brake lol
WOW I didn't want this video to end..! No doubt the best superbike right now! can't wait for next year when the germans will answer this "Ferrari bike". Peace & Love my friends.
All right guys, please give me some feedback. I just drove off the lot with my brand new Ducati V4S. However, they put 13 miles on it stating that the technicians were test riding it to make sure everything was working properly. They put a really small rock chip on my left ohlins fork.I am having really bad OCD considering what I paid for it. The dealer told me that they can warranty it out. However, they sent a team of staff to make me feel like a douchebag if I were to warranty it. What should I do? Thanks!
Hey Jaret, been following your TH-cam videos on the past few builds you had done. I am also a bike enthusiast. I had a 2007 Maroon/black R1 that was stolen and damaged by the thieves. Unfortunately I had to declare it as a total loss because it cost as much a a brand new one to repair. I eventually ended up getting another bike, a HD 2013 VRod Muscle. I still miss my R1 and still would like to eventually get another super sport bike. The Ducati V4 is on that wish list. Anyway, I am currently residing on Guam and was just wondering if I would be able to enter the V4 build you have coming up. Thanks and keep those bike videos coming.
First ride yes, review not quite. That’s like reviewing a fine scotch by only smelling it. Still a great video, I’ve got a deposit on the V4 base model and I’m hyped, but also scared because it’s not my first Ducati and I know they have issues first year of production on all of their top end Panigale’s
haha yeah I've only got a few hundred miles but it doesn't take me long to get the idea since I've ridden so many bikes and spent a lot of time on the Ducati's. Also, so far this V4 has only had a few small recalls here and there so I think you'll be ok. Congrats on the bike man you will love it!
i don't know, i could be wrong, but from what i can tell it seems the v4s is a rsv4rf with the only real difference being the $12K or so added to the price of the Aprilia for pretty much the same bike, give or take a little, but only a little.
They are completely different bikes to be honest. I've ridden both on the street and I find the Panigale to be more comfortable, easier to ride, better looking, more power and better handling. It's literally better in every way. Also the RSV4 RF model is $20k. The Panigale V4 base model is $21k. So its not that much more.
i know the base model is 21k but i can't find a review of that back to save my life. NO ONE it seems reviews anything but the s. i was wondering how much real world difference does one feel betwix the two. i think the difference is alloy wheels, lithium battery, ion electronic suspension and some carbon fiber here and there. would love to hear a comparison from someone who has rode both and relates to real world riding where 90% is the street and maybe 10%, if that, is at the track.
I swear one day i'll be owning a campisi customs ducati for sure...fuck it, no matter how much money it costs or how long it takes, but i'm gonna send my ducati to US Of A and get it customised by jaret and add it to my collection of bikes....coz its very frustrating to look at these beauties designed by him and not being able to participate in the build series just because i don't live in America or Canada...👍👍
Yeah man I'm so sorry about that...I hope to one day be at a point where we can take on other's personal bikes and customize them for you guys so stay tuned!
I don't believe you would be able to legally register a US/Canadian model in Australia...do you want to look into that for me? Also shipping would cost like $5k probably which might be a bit intense.
Jaret Campisi if its can't be registered then will be a track only bike so not an issue. Obviously transport and fees would be at the winners expense don't expect you to pay for it my friend.
Honestly we would love to do that BUT I'm not sure you could register these bikes legally outside of the US/Canada. So we don't want to send a bike to someone who couldn't legally ride it.
You can actually completely change the engine breaking feel with the touch of a button so it felt great to me when I set it how I personally like it :)
hard to give a good review when your carving left and right...lol when I'm at the track I usually dont talk much that might explain the slower riding ;)
Since I've got to put a few hundred break in miles on the 2018 Panigale V4S I figured I'd take you guys along for a ride and give you my first impressions on the bike.

lol wtf....me too
Reason for not doing a Dyno break-in for this bike like you did with the Daytona?
Mark Tomlin great question. I wanted to put some miles on this one and some heat cycles since it’s a much larger engine and a first generation. We will be finishing the break in on the Dyno next week. 👍
What kind of money do you make to be able to just give this bike away to some random person on the Internet???
@@JaretCampisi so the v4 is basically a street legal GP bike ?
Looks like a bike 10 years ahead of it's time. Aliens created it for Star Wars!
I can't wait to see the transformation of this already amazing machine
I just freakin' love my V4. Had it on the track the other day and it is AWESOME!!! I think you will have a blast customizing this beast and the winner is gonna get a bike out of this world! Love your series by the way :-)
Thank you so much and congrats on your V4 man! I couldn't agree more. It's such a wonderful bike. I'm very happy with the changes Ducati made with this thing. I think its a huge step in the right direction for them.
This build series will be on another level,I am sure about that😍
This bike is going to be insane. I think this bike is going to change your channel.
the exposure you already have is going to be eclipsed.
Awesome.
Stay humble.
Really appreciate that man. We are super excited for this build too!
Took one for a test ride last Saturday. Best bike I've ever ridden. What a bike. Can't wait to see it in carbon.
haha yep it sounds like we are on the same page...its hard not to like this bike its really that good.
This first ride review was great You talked about the bike & its amazing features in detail which is a huge plus for those of us interested in acquiring such a beast in the future . That Duc in stock format is amazing as it is adding an Akra full system will without any doubt give this Duc
some power delivery like no other
Your list of mods planned for the V4 is impressive on paper just imagining what the final looks & function will be of this build is making me drool already .
haha yeah man I'm really excited for this one. And thanks I'm glad you enjoyed the review!
GREAT example Christina on why NOT too ride with flip flops 👍lol
hahahah so true I was like what the hell are you wearing flip flops for lol
Jaret Campisi Dado has a TH-cam channel?
4:10 She be like: "I shoulda brought a magazine"
That's one helluva starting point. Wow. Killer bike.
I have been in love with Aprilia rsv4 rf and now I have a new dream bike. This is going to be one of those bikes you keep and one day when your boy is old enough would dream of owning and riding it years after production.
Yep I agree for sure
Just can’t beat this channel
The temp gauge actually sounds easy, you said three bars the first when it’s too cold the second when it’s ready or just right and the third when it’s too hot sounds even more simple and takes all the guess work out when waiting for the right temp to ride.
I'm really excited to see how different modifications you guys do on this bad/good boy machine from the previous one. All the best. Love u guys 👌👌👍👍❤❤
I Rode that Bike 2 Months Ago & BOY OH BOY !💥....THE MOST MONSTERIOUS BIKE Ever Produced by DUCATI 🔥💕💥..VERY QUICK ! SERIOUSLY..I✋ don't have WORDS about this HOTTIE 🔥💕💥
haha amen to that man. They really built something special with this bike for sure!
Jaret Campisi Oh YEAH ! @lways Top Notch...Ducati💥& Kawasaki🔥 ! Unbeatable💪👊💥✌️
Soooo sick!!! Love this channel and your choice of bikes! Great taste my man
haha sounds like we would be great friends :)
Jaret Campisi no doubt brother, great minds think alike!
Can't wait to see what you do with it, you'll have to actually keep one for a change! Your review is very similar to mine. I had my 1299 and this V4 side by side and they are honestly similar looking with the exception of a few areas.
Yeah I will definitely be getting one of these bikes for myself in the future but for now I'm investing all my cash into the builds haha
Love this channel. Can't wait to watch the build. Hello from Australia.
thank you so much! We put this beast on the dyno tomorrow!
Really liked this review it was super detailed and informative, even learned a few things I didn't know about my own v4s
This is how you do a review folks.
Glad you liked it!
Jaret Campisi
Very detailed and with your work with Ducati build series. You bet your dollar you know what you're talking about. Thank you.
I put 400 miles on mine today and wasn’t miserable. Great review!
Hey jaret nice review
Wanted to know how much difference is there between v4 and v4s performance and are they exact same in look
And will u use wrap on this v4s to get exact look of Speciale ... bcz Speciale paint is just wow isint it??
They look exactly the same. They have exactly the same engine as well. The main difference is the electronic ohlins suspension and the light weight forged wheels. 99% of the riding population wouldn't notice a difference between the two if I'm honest. And no we are doing a full carbon build on the V4 with red glossy accents :)
The fact that the gas tank goes under the seat probably helps insulate from a lot of the heat coming from the engine and exhaust.
Thumbs up for the flip flops!👍
hahahaha yes I'm telling Christina!
andrew welty pretty ass feet
what camera did u use for this vid and what mic? it looks and sounds great
Ducati really should start paying you because I want to buy one now! You did a great job reviewing it.
Sick bike ,can't wait for the build, can't win it but what the hell. Am I the only one that thinks Christina would luck crazy riding that bike , I'm sure Alpinestars do high heal boots.
haha I'd love to see her on this thing...maybe we will have to check into that
I’m picking up my Speciale this weekend. I own an aprilia RSV4 also. Ducati HP numbers are all over the place. Need to see what the dyno says. At any rate Ducati has big shoes to fill if it wants to make a bike better than the RSV4 and the sound of the aprilia makes the hair stand up on the back of your neck.

That is one sweet bike,nice choice. This is going to be one awesome series to watch!!!
Thanks buddy I can't wait to get started!
Are you guys coming to Johnstown PA for thunder in the valley?
Really enjoyed this review video mate just like the old days 👌 i know your very busy with the bike build series but you should try doing more of these videos if you get chance
Thanks Adam I really enjoyed getting back to a first ride as well. I've been wanting to do more of these but just been having a hard time finding dealers who are willing to let us take bikes out to be honest...it was much more easier in Cali.
Oh boy another Ducati!!!
The dash looks amazing!
Hi Jaret, what is your height? It looks like you're leaning forward too much. Can a 5'6/5'7 ride this comfortably?
waiting for transformation , & i"m 100% sure you doing great work you are awesome jaret campisi i always waitin for your next uplode. all the best BIG THUMPS FOR JARET CAMPISI & TEAM
How is the engine heat after riding a few hours. I have an S1000RR and the heat is unbearable on the left leg on a moderate hot day. What would you say about the V4's engine heat?
That bike is a certified win
Yes awesome motor , I always swore by those V4,s back in the early 80,s with the Honda’s , I,m still in love with the oval piston Honda which is a V4 as well , Ducati has hit its mark with this V4 , oh and teens your a sweetheart !
Yeah I agree with you for sure. And I agree Ducati has really knocked it out of the park with this one.
Great video! Great insights brotha! Love the bike!! 🔥
I'm guessing it sounds better in person cuse on my phone not so good.
they sound like shit in person as well
This looks better than the last bike
Fantastic video! And the bike is freaking awesome ♥️
What kind of microphone do u use ? The bass sounds very good in the movie! Greetings from Germany! :-)
Riding footage I'm using the mic that comes with the Sena 20s. I actually add some bass in post production to help it sound better as well. And greetings from the US!
I think Jaret chose this bike to fill the void that the speciale left😂😂😂 Can’t wait to see what you guys do to make this bike perfect!
haha I'm not gonna lie I definitely wanted to ride one so I'm happy the patrons felt the same way :)
this one will replace my 1199S , i'm in love :-)
So did Ducati fix the heating issue with the new v4 or is it still very hot

Thank you so much man I'm glad you are enjoying the videos! And we actually did think about that but its pretty hard to come by parts for the older ducati super bikes so it could make the series a bit tough to do in a timely manor. Definitely not ruling it out but for now we will continue to do newer bikes.
Nothing to do with the video but would you guys want to go to a fairly small festival in upstate ny?
What i likes most
Design
14000rpm red line
Tail lights headlights
Do you still have this bike? Had it been reliable? Any issues
Don't let teens ride it and as per previous comment on the carbon Duc, use full beans on break in...
Also, the bike has a built-in cutoff when stopped in first gear/neutral with the clutch pulled in, it cuts out the rear two cylinders from firing.

haha appreciate that man. And Yeah we can't wait to get the akra system on this bad boy...its going to be insane!
Btw, here's a doc on the background of Ducati...thought u might be interested...

Very nice bike very happy for you guys :) one thing the self cancelling turn signals isn't new tech bmw has that on their bikes since 2010 but it is really nice to have only thing I hate about the system is if you lean it when stopped :say to look at something on the ground they cancel out maybe the new models only cancel them if the bike is rolling but its only a minor gripe.
If your riding in full leather gear you dont feel the heat on this bike the 1299 ALWAYS felt like you had a fire pit under your ass it was terrible even with the carbon shields they gave you it was just brutal.
I actually cancelled the DDC on my s1000rr's race bikes I can better adjust everything with aftermarket set ups. The electronic kits on the bikes are great for Mr. and Miss street drivers and weekend racers as they don't need to do anything, no more sag adjusting and worrying about tires waring out from bad suspension set ups because of drivers weights and driving styles.
This bike is one bad MF but this is far from a beginner bike or even for a casual rider. I got the chance to get one last weekend for some testing from my dealer to see if I wanted to change stables next season I was very impressed with how far Ducati got from last years bike to this bike light years apart so I'll have some thinking to do since bmws been a sponsor for a while now. First world problems I guess lol
haha I think you are spot on with your assessments. And I would say this and the BMW/Aprilia are all tough choices for a track guy. It would really just come down to personal preference. I think the 2019 S1000RR is going to be pretty insane as well so you might just want to hold off :)
yeah I would definitely never own/track an RSV4 really don't like the bike and it's brutal uncomfortable to ride but it's not a bad bike just not for me. As for 2019 well I would assume that I will get some info on the new S1K soon since I ride for them from what I heard it will be something outta this world so I can't wait to see if the hype will be better then their transition in 2016 which was just update and nothing really new. One things for sure bikes today are brutal and they are all very fast and the turn ins are fast it all comes down to how you feel on it. but I hate all the electronics on bike today as they interfere in your riding on the track the bike drives more then the rider does now. For the street it's perfect people need those things because many riders buy more then they can actually drive, kids these days all they think about is HP's and top speeds and they almost always forget to turn and brake lol
hope it doesn't bother you to much having me comment like this
Great video review just subscribed
By the time Jerett gets done riding this bike it will need a valve check!!
WOW I didn't want this video to end..!
No doubt the best superbike right now! can't wait for next year when the germans will answer this "Ferrari bike". Peace & Love my friends.
Im looking into getting a Kawasaki 900 z at some point :) ... it dont have all that electronic stuff but I really like the bike !
Nice vid..
Never been much in to Ducati but this as well as the almost unachievable Desmosedici woke up some needs i didn´t know i had... :-)
Jaret...the base model doesn’t have electronic suspension...so would it have all those electronic aids that you talked about?
It still has all of the electronics just not the ones pertaining to the suspension which most of the riders in the world honestly wouldn't use anyway.
oh got it! thanks Jaret. Keep up the good work!
All right guys, please give me some feedback. I just drove off the lot with my brand new Ducati V4S. However, they put 13 miles on it stating that the technicians were test riding it to make sure everything was working properly. They put a really small rock chip on my left ohlins fork.I am having really bad OCD considering what I paid for it. The dealer told me that they can warranty it out. However, they sent a team of staff to make me feel like a douchebag if I were to warranty it. What should I do? Thanks!
Hey Jaret, been following your TH-cam videos on the past few builds you had done. I am also a bike enthusiast. I had a 2007 Maroon/black R1 that was stolen and damaged by the thieves. Unfortunately I had to declare it as a total loss because it cost as much a a brand new one to repair. I eventually ended up getting another bike, a HD 2013 VRod Muscle. I still miss my R1 and still would like to eventually get another super sport bike. The Ducati V4 is on that wish list. Anyway, I am currently residing on Guam and was just wondering if I would be able to enter the V4 build you have coming up. Thanks and keep those bike videos coming.
Sorry to hear that buddy. We are only able to legally give these bikes to those residing in the US/Canada :(
That’s what I figured. If I could provide a Stateside address, would that work?
First ride yes, review not quite. That’s like reviewing a fine scotch by only smelling it. Still a great video, I’ve got a deposit on the V4 base model and I’m hyped, but also scared because it’s not my first Ducati and I know they have issues first year of production on all of their top end Panigale’s
haha yeah I've only got a few hundred miles but it doesn't take me long to get the idea since I've ridden so many bikes and spent a lot of time on the Ducati's. Also, so far this V4 has only had a few small recalls here and there so I think you'll be ok. Congrats on the bike man you will love it!
i don't know, i could be wrong, but from what i can tell it seems the v4s is a rsv4rf with the only real difference being the $12K or so added to the price of the Aprilia for pretty much the same bike, give or take a little, but only a little.
They are completely different bikes to be honest. I've ridden both on the street and I find the Panigale to be more comfortable, easier to ride, better looking, more power and better handling. It's literally better in every way. Also the RSV4 RF model is $20k. The Panigale V4 base model is $21k. So its not that much more.
i know the base model is 21k but i can't find a review of that back to save my life. NO ONE it seems reviews anything but the s. i was wondering how much real world difference does one feel betwix the two. i think the difference is alloy wheels, lithium battery, ion electronic suspension and some carbon fiber here and there. would love to hear a comparison from someone who has rode both and relates to real world riding where 90% is the street and maybe 10%, if that, is at the track.
I swear one day i'll be owning a campisi customs ducati for sure...fuck it, no matter how much money it costs or how long it takes, but i'm gonna send my ducati to US Of A and get it customised by jaret and add it to my collection of bikes....coz its very frustrating to look at these beauties designed by him and not being able to participate in the build series just because i don't live in America or Canada...👍👍
Yeah man I'm so sorry about that...I hope to one day be at a point where we can take on other's personal bikes and customize them for you guys so stay tuned!
It steers so different because of the "Monoframe" and lower centre point of gravity
sir jaret if you autoblip do you still need to off the throttle?
really enjoyed the video :)
Makes me so happy to hear that :)
Awesome review, makes me want to go get one!
haha do it!
Will we be seeing an episode of the new build series soon,,,,because I can't wait for it to start,?😏👌
Next week we will finish the break in on the dyno and get the stock HP numbers and then it begins!
Let the excitement begin 👓☺🎥
Hey jaret let's say I'm selected to win the Ducati but I'm in australia do I still get the bike sent to me ? Thanks keep up the good work
I don't believe you would be able to legally register a US/Canadian model in Australia...do you want to look into that for me? Also shipping would cost like $5k probably which might be a bit intense.
Jaret Campisi if its can't be registered then will be a track only bike so not an issue. Obviously transport and fees would be at the winners expense don't expect you to pay for it my friend.
what go pro and mic set up u using here?
Sweet! I can't wait!
Oh great, we get to hear Jaret say Panigale some more...
When does Christina get to ride it?
13:07 That car on the left has some sick tires!
You ever considered adding a CAR channel? Seems like it would be a natural addition to the bikes
I would love to get into some car stuff but right now we just don't have the extra cash.
#jaretcampisi
Whats difference between panigale v4 - v4r - v4s & 1299 final edition ???
Where’s the drunken video from last night gone ..?..?
Duc for life!
Would you add your own mods to the base v4
I would like to see this bike in White where the red is and black everywhere else! That would be Dope!!
Can your fans look forward to seeing you next year at Moto GP of americas Ducati Island?
6:49 You must COMPLETELY STOP before STOP sign.At least in TH-cam video.You are showing bad example.
Please go with the gloss red wheels.
wish no that would look terrible ( my opinion is all )
Nate Kern of Ducati.
Jared, you should consider shipping internationally winner should pay taxes and shipping. You will increase your income by at least 20 times
Honestly we would love to do that BUT I'm not sure you could register these bikes legally outside of the US/Canada. So we don't want to send a bike to someone who couldn't legally ride it.
Jaret Campisi You can send it to countries which people can register and ride. For example UAE-Dubai
How does the engine breaking feel?
You can actually completely change the engine breaking feel with the touch of a button so it felt great to me when I set it how I personally like it :)
It wasn't Fastbikes Magazine Bike of 2018 it wasn't as Fast as the RSV4 RF
Hey if I turn 18 in a month can I still qualify for the V4?
yes sir! As long as you're 18 by the time we choose the winner :)
I’m winning this shit, nuff said
Beautiful christina oh yeah bike too 👍⚔️
All that and Ducati cheaped out on the Clutch and brake levers :(
I like your channel but you ride super sport bikes like scooters
To make a good review you should go to Canion or to the track
hard to give a good review when your carving left and right...lol when I'm at the track I usually dont talk much that might explain the slower riding ;)
I need this!
Every V4 bike ever sounds like a twin at low rpm's. Never heard a Honda VFR, Magna or an Aprilia?
Roses are red!
Violets are blue!
I clicked because of the thumbnail!
So do you!
