[[{“value”:”The 2024 Ducati Streetfighter V4 S. (Ducati/)OverviewWhile Ducati’s superbikes may be the heart and soul of the brand, if there’s one motorcycle that most epitomizes Ducati’s ethos of “style, sophistication, and performance,” it’s arguably the Streetfighter V4. At once savagely fast with racetrack-precise handling and beautiful brutalist styling, it’s also downright humane: Rear cylinder deactivation minimizes heat at idle, smooth and linear power delivery makes it controllable despite pumping out superbike levels of performance, and electronic rider aids enable you to harness its performance. Heck, the seat is even comfortable, with cushioning only 10mm thinner than that of the Multistrada V4. The Streetfighter V4 is refined yet exciting, accessible yet transcendent.Just as the original 2009 Streetfighter was based on the superbike of the era, the Streetfighter V4 is based on the Panigale V4 and uses a version of the 1,103cc Desmosedici Stradale that pumps out a claimed 208 hp at 13,000 rpm and 90.4 lb.-ft. of torque at 9,500 rpm. The Streetfighter’s amazingly sophisticated electronics package inherits the Panigale’s latest advances; our tester was particularly impressed by ABS Cornering EVO and Engine Brake Control EVO 2, which helped him enter corners with huge confidence. When you ride it, you can’t help but think: “If Ducati can make this, no wonder it’s dominating MotoGP.”From left to right: the base-model Streetfighter, the V4 S in Grey Nero, and the V4 SP2. (Ducati/)Pricing and VariantsThe base-model 2024 Streetfighter starts at $22,095. The V4 S, which gets semi-active suspension, forged Marchesini wheels, and a lithium-ion battery, starts at $27,595. The V4 SP2 ($37,995) is a numbered model and features carbon fiber wheels, an STM-EVO SBK dry clutch, Winter Test livery, and more. The V4 Supreme, a collaboration with the New York–based clothing brand, is a limited and numbered edition and costs $50,000. The V4 Lamborghini, limited to 693 units and starting at $68,000, has Lamborghini Huràcan STO-inspired styling and a host of go-fast goodies.The $38,000 SP2 in action. You can practically hear the dry clutch, can’t you?
