THE Ducati V4 Streetfighter is being officially unveiled later this month at the company's Rimini World Premier event and it’s one of the companies most eagerly awaited naked motorcycles of recent years.
To help stir the excitement, Ducati has posted a new teaser video on their social media channels showing the new headlight arrangement and some of the headline stats of the bike.
The post reads:
This is The Fight Formula.
See you at Ducati World Première 2020: October 23rd, 11.30 am CEST.
Follow the unveil of the 2020 Ducati range in live streaming on our website and on our social media channels.

The video highlights some of the key stats for the latest, fastest and most powerful naked bike ever to roll out of the Borgo Panigale factory gates, starting with its power output, claimed to be 208hp at 12,750rpm. It also gives an idea of the bikes weight of 178kg, which we are assuming is the dry weight. The fully road-ready machine should be nearer the 195kg of the fully fuelled Panigale V4S’ weight.
It also confirms the new machine will feature the same electronics package as the V4, in the form of its TFT dash and riding modes. It isn’t clear as to whether the bike will receive the same electronic suspension as the V4S at this time, although it’s possible that’ll be reserved for the S-spec Streetfighter.
Ducati V4 Streetfighter gives you wings
One new confirmation made is that the new bike will include what Ducati call bi-plane wings, continuing the faith that Ducati have in aerodynamic devices on their road and race machines. This means the outrageous wings seen on the bikes that was raced by the late Carlin Dunne during his ill-fated Pikes Peak debut for the machine earlier this year.
