  • How hot was it? INSANE! That and so much more on this long delayed edit of the return road trip of my new 2022 Ducati Panigale V4 from Austin, TX to Los Angeles, CA after race weekend in April.

    As much suffering as you had to endure I think this is a great vid for those who think they know what they want in the world of bikes. To preface my comments I am a Ducati fan, I own a Pikes Peak and a Desert X. I am not as brave as you and I am old so my neck can't take a sport bike. That being said, the closest I can do is a naked. I tried every hyper naked out there and I loved the Street Fighter V4S but man......the heat is just unacceptable and I know the Panigale is even worse. Ducati needs to figure it out because others have so there is no excuse. I ended up buying the Super Duke Evo. It does not have the offensive heat, it actually has a gas gauge, back lit controls, cruise control etc. Why the SF or the Pngl do not have these features on $30k bikes is ridiculous. I lived in TX and I know the heat well, TX is the most miserably hot state in the country...AZ does not even compare because it is dry. Congrats to you for having the balls to make such a trip, I did similar when I was young and it ain't easy. I just did an 1100 mile ride on my Harley SG and it was as easy as a car....this is why there are bikes for different occasions. I am gonna do a 5 hour ride to the Tail of the Dragon on my Super Duke but that is nothing compared to your trip. Great pair of vids!

      Glad you enjoyed the videos! 👍 So true - for Ducati to not make the effort to add heat shielding to their bikes is just crazy. Glad you found bikes that give you a better ride for long trips. Yeah, I don’t advise people do what I did if you take lots of longer trips. I can tough it out once or twice a year but any more than that and I’d be looking at another bike. 🤣

    Again...Major props to you my friend. While I've logged over 300k miles in my riding career, none of it was on a sport bike. I basically only ride my Panigale V2 on the track. You are hard-core. Living in Phoenix, and putting the Duc on a trailer to go to watch MotoGP at COTA. I've softened in my old age. ;) Props again.

    Hey, that was a super long road trip! Glad you made it safe and sound. It is quite normal to get that heat out from the engine and roast the back of your leg. I would recommend using Dainese leather pants (Delta or Alpha, both are cool) and high-ankle riding boots (Torque 3). It would definitely eliminate the burns! I had the same issue with my F3, but it's gone now since I use those proper gears for a long distance trip. Cheers and merry Christmas !

    • @amv_moto
      @amv_moto  Год назад

      Yes, the next time I take a long trip in hot weather on the Panigale, I'll wear leather pants or an Under Armor cool layer. Luckily I've added the Ducati Spacers heat shield kit and that has helped the heat a lot. Hope you had a Merry Christmas too and have a Happy New Year!

Kind of surprised you decided to drive it all the way back to Cali after that. Well, at the very least your video is entertaining. And, although that kind of drive is not what that bike is for. Congrats, it is still an amazing bike. I live in Texas and I am buying a V4. I am not cruising it across Texas. Thanks for the fun vid!

Already looking forward to my next trip later this year - somewhere cooler than TX though! Ha! You will love your V4 but my advice is have them install the Ducati Spacers heat shield kit at your 600 mile service. I installed it when I got back to CA and it made the bike noticeably cooler. Have fun!

    I had the panigale 959 and corsa. Rode them for over 20,000 miles in two years. Tried the 1299, but it was ridiculously hot. I went out once when it was 100. It felt like I was riding on top of a furnace in shorts. After twenty miles, I turned around a came home. I always rode in leathers. I don’t care about the excuse that it’s primarily a race bike. Most other manufacturers of similar bikes have figured it out. It’s not that difficult to improve the heat shielding and ventilation.
    I now own a s1000rr. You can easily ride 400 mile + days. There’s no problem with engine heat.

I couldn't agree more about the huge difference between riding in mid 70 temps and 90 odd, even cruising along at higher speed barely cooled me down. The Ducati's engine makes up most of the 'frame' compared with most bikes, you must've felt like a boil in the bag meal !

    Amazing video! Maybe I missed it, but did you have any luggage or wear a backpack? I just did an 1,100 mile road trip on my street triple and I learned a few lessons too. Honestly, I didn’t realize how close I was to heat exhaustion until I stopped and bought a cold drink with ice. A man told me, “Hot day for a ride.” It kind of pissed me off and I kept riding.

    I was about to recommend Ducati Spacers’ heat insulation kit for the Panigale V4S and you mentioned that you purchased it at the end of the video. It’ll make a noticable difference to which I can testify as I have the kit on my ‘21 Panigale V4S. I also ordered the throttle spacer kit which I’m very happy with so perhaps you might want to look into that as well…

      Glad you enjoyed the video! I didn't consider a ZX10r because I honestly think Kawasaki (like Suzuki) are not really invested in improving their sportbikes like Ducati, BMW, Yamaha & Honda are. For example, they're pulling out of WSBK next year - like Suzuki pulled out a few yews ago. Since that is the platform manufacturers use to improve their superbikes, this tells me they plan to put less & less resources into those bikes in the future. Ultimately, I wanted a cutting-edge superbike and I just think they're a few steps behind Ducati & BMW.

Also, I like what you did with the winglets. They are an eyesore that ruin the pristine lines of the original 2018 V4, although the heat issues were way worse on that model year if you can imagine. Winglets need to go the way of the Hyabusa and ZX-14. They too will be replaced by advanced rider aids if they can't be done tastefully like on the MV Rush, Brutale 1000, F3 RR, and Honda CBR 1000 RRR-RR Firreblade SPR.

Yes, my winglets lasted less than 24 hours after I picked up the bike. Hate 'em. I'm planning to get the bike resprayed in the spring - not a huge "bright red" person.

    Yo AMV! Holler the next time you're coming through TX so we can ride with for sections...maybe. I am always looking for an excuse to ride. Leathers truly help with ducs. I thought all were too sensitive bout hot legs but when I rode my duc with my awesome trilobite riding jeans, I understood! Next COTA track day is in May with RideSmart! Check it out.

      For sure I hope to make it back to TX - a track day at COTA would be epic. Definitely learned my lesson about the heat - installed the Ducati Spacers heat shield kit as soon as I got back to CA and it’s made a noticeable improvement to the heat.

    Love your videos man..
    Waiting for your new road trips..
    I have some questions for you :-
    Ducati Panigale v4 have not electronic suspension also their suspension stiffer. So you have not any issues related of comfort..?
    Yau have a Panigale v4 ,, a race track bike.. so why you have not ride as a racer.. like fast and little bit aggressive..?
    You get the bike full tuned ? Like akrapovic full system exhaust, f1 air filter, 525 chain sprocket sets, E.C.U. flash etc..
    Would you ever take your bike to a race track?
    I am also want to see your bike's review, comparison, service and full throttle aggressive riding videos..😁
    See you from next video..❣️

    • @amv_moto
      @amv_moto  Год назад +3

      No issues for comfort with the manual suspension. The electronic suspension of a V4s makes it easier to go from stiff to soft but you can accomplish the same thing just with wrenches on a manual suspension. The V4s riders I've talked to have said electronic suspension is a gimmick. There are lots of channels out there with aggressive riders. Have you checked out 650ib, FastlaneD, Max Wrist, Superbike Racer, ImKay...? There is no lack of YT riders out there who don't care about their license or their life. I'm planning to do several mods to the bike, mostly cosmetic and handling so stay tuned for the mod series if you're interested. Cheers.

    Bro would you still recommend the V4S over S1K RR M?

    • @amv_moto
      @amv_moto  Год назад

      I don’t regret my choice of V4 over S1K. I wanted a MotoGP inspired sportbike with brutal power that feels like it will kill you if you don’t pay attention. But since I don’t think most riders are into that experience I usually recommend a S1K because it’s a better overall bike IMO. I think if you can only have 1 bike it’s a better choice. It has things most riders will want - cruise control, a fuel gauge, heated grips, on dash navigation - and it doesn’t feel like it’s going to burst into flames. 🤣 I talked to a bunch of V4S owners and decided the “S” wasn’t worth the $6400 difference in price to me. I’d be paying for a bunch of stuff I didn’t want - except for the lithium battery. $6400 would get you all carbon fiber bodywork with $ left over. Or Akropovic or Termignoni or carbon fiber wheels or a custom paint job and your bike would be way more unique than that every other “S” out there.

      Yes, I have the original Supercorsa SPs and incredibly they still have a ton of life on them even after the heat and many stretches of >100mph (>160kph). I seriously think I'll be able to get >7k miles (>11k km) before I have to change them. I installed the heat shields after I got back and it made a big difference.

    Do you think doing this trip on a Streetfighter V4 would have made a significant difference? I am looking at V4 / Streetfighter V4 and want to occasionally take longer rides as you also enjoy.

    • @amv_moto
      @amv_moto  Год назад +1

      I think the Streetfighter would be better with the heat since it’s open. I’d still advise getting the heat shield kit though! Where you’ll struggle during a road trip is with the wind - since it doesn’t come with a windscreen. I think that’d be pretty exhausting fighting the wind at high speeds. The windscreen on a Panigale is not that big but it was pretty effective. I’d add an aftermarket windscreen just for road trips if I got a Streetfighter. That would help.

      Not sure of exactly how many fuel stops I made but probably around a dozen total. The low fuel light of the V4 would generally go on between mile 105-115. I've never run it out of gas but from the time the low fuel light came on I'd estimate I could go another 25-30 miles.

      The Supercorsa SP's still surprisingly have a lot of life left on them even after the heat and many stretches of 100+mph riding. They were a little squared off by the time I got back to CA. But after about 500 miles of regular riding after I got home, that square edge was gone. I think I'll be able to get about 7k miles out of them before I have to change them.

      Yes, I asked a mechanic when I brought the bike in for the 600 mile service and they said they tell people to just run 87. They see hundreds of these bikes a year and they see no maintenance or service issues from bikes running 87 vs a higher octane. They said only if they bike's engine starting knocking would you want to go up in octane, but my bike runs just fine. I figure they know better than me so I'm not gonna lose sleep over it.

I believe the Ducati ECU is similar to my BMW S1K, where they detect knock and detune the bike to allow safe engine operation with the lower octane fuel. Just because it's running, doesn't mean it's running like it should be.
