Chris Northover is without doubt, UK best motorcycle journalist out there. Informative, breaks it down so you can the viewer can actually understand about the bike. Super job 👍👍👍

Chris Northover’s review is brilliant, informative and entertaining as always. The videography-especially at the beginning and at the end of the piece-are among the best I’ve seen in any track-based review. Someone is really on their game!

This guy’s reviews are excellent!

Most excellent review Sir! I love all of the improvements Ducati made to this awesome bike!

Every now and then someone does something special ! The camera work, content, and delivery was tight ! Well done, Ducati ! I am now going to review a possible Ducati purchase with street use in mind, Thanks ! 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸

Great review Chris 👍 Bike World and 44teeth the only bike channels on KZfaq worth watching! Keep up the good work can't wait for the next review 👍

Excellent review & explanation of the details. Great video thanks

This guy not only has a wonderful way of explaining the bike, the feel and plain talk. Refreshing. But guys, this dude knows how to ride a bike, he is a weapon. Great rider explaining bikes to us normal riders:)

That was not just the best review I've seen of the V4 but, very possibly, the best bike review I've seen full stop. Deserves a much wider audience than just KZfaq. Great work by all involved!

Brilliant. Chris has made such a difference to your channel. Without doubt, the authority on performance bikes and makes it entertaining and easy to understand without trying hard.

What a great review! Enthusiastic, knowledgeable, and a good enough rider to shame most of us, giving a clear view of what this motorcycle is about :) Well done.

Honestly this is one of the most insightful review of this bike I've seen, and you are a hell of a rider!

I've bought my 1299s because of this guy's review in Portimao. Why the hell am I watching this ? I will go broke eventually.

Superb review Chris!!!! My second "TOP review" after your test of Hypermotard 950 SP few months ago.

Always the best launch reviews from Wayne’s World. Excellent! Party on!

So it turns out chris northover is the chris harris of motorcycling. :))

Love Chris, he is a class act. Wish he had done the V2 review too

One of the best laid down reviews. Great 👍

Chris's reviews are always always top standard

What a great review! The music that follows Chris's comment about being in an arcade game is just spot on @8:55 👌🏍

Yet again, insightful, informative, and enjoyable. Another high quality review from Chris. Looking forward to John / Chris spinning up the V2 on UK tarmac.

Brilliant review. Loved every second of it!!

Love the delivery of your videos Chris. Not a gushing outpouring of praise, just a factual real world account of what's what and how it actually feels to ride, in a way anyone can easily relate to. I've yet to ride mine as it's been part of a comprehensive build project I am undertaking, but watching this only makes me hanker to get on it and see if it meets expectations.

First video I’ve watched of yours and I’ve subscribed. Great job mate, looking forward to watching everything else 👍🏼

I love my V4S. Had it for 2 years now with 10,000 miles and 20 track days. I absolute love this bike due to its power, electronics and design. For me there is no better supersport and I just purchased a 4 year extended warranty on it , as I intend to keep it for some time. This bike gives you tremendous opportunity to up your game and it will keep evolving as you do. I did modify it slowly over time too to dial it in to my liking. Cheers.

Great review, lovely cinematography, has left me fantasising owning one. Really enjoyed watching. Thanks!

What a killer review! Thank you 👍🏾

Great review... looked like a lot of folks had fun in Bahrain last week. 220hp on a superbike just seems mental on a track, but on the street!?, have we reached beyond what is usable? I know we've asked that question for years... I have a 160hp bike that once upon a time people said "who needs that kind of power" and at first I sort of agreed... but after a few months I was using it all on occasion and wouldn't want less. Even so and even with only 160hp I find 'full throttle' is not something I could just grab like on my lower power bikes... I can only imagine that on the street the higher rpm ranges of this Pani are probably 'not too often utilized'. Part of that because in my state... even on the highway... I can get a speeding ticket in first gear on this bike. Anyway I may be asking these questions... but I'm still getting a Streetfighter V4S... so...

I subscribed because this was such a great review. I watched it without scrubbing forward like I do with most reviews. I’m not in the market for another sportbike, but I love seeing people have fun with motorcycles. His level of excitement made me want to hop on a bike and go!

Excellent review, beautiful bike. Chris nails it again!

Love the cinematic looks in your reviews

Great review, but who at Ducati decided to have the wings black....big mistake, should have matched the bodywork 😡😡

Chris your reviews r easy to understand and informative n the best entertaining aswell. Keep it up 😀🏍️ from north of England Uk

I love Chris!! A really good review!! 😀

Great review Thank you!!

Great video!!!!! This is how you do a video review.

Excellent review! Please cover more bikes! Especially the V2. Also would love to hear from you how theses bikes do on the street.

fantastic review , the most in depth technical analysis I've seen but the way Chris presents makes it so easy to take in. I'm wondering whether the new electronics features (e.g the torque mapping) will be on the V2 as well or is it not needed due to the reduced power of that Bike ?.

Best review of this bike it enables you to understand what the bike is all about

Beautiful bike and one of the most adrenaline pumping experiences I’d ever had

A terrific review. Behold my next steed ))

The review is as good as this amazing bike.

Brilliant review, very informative - hat's off. At one point, you go into a corner with opposite lock and foot down, dirt bike style - on a Panigale! Very funny.

Good review. Nice bike. It's to pretty to ride. I'd probably put this in my living room and sit on it to watch football!

Excellent review and an amazing motorcycle!

Insane piece of engineering

Well done mate!

Awesome Review of Awesome motorcycle by Awesome Reviewer Chris. I just loved it ❤️

You might already know of this, but just so you're aware.... with an R&D team as big as Audi behind them, new tech and advancements will just get better... This isn't a creation from Ducati.. its VW/Audi's. Excellent review!

Nobody review it like bike world👍💯

Fantastic review! Really really great review.

I can’t get over the addition of the wings. The bike is no longer something I could spend hours looking at it just sitting there. As functional as they may be the eyesore factor is too much and you’ll never see one in my garage. Great video!

Great review Chris. BTW you looked very much at home on track!

That was a great review. How close do you think it is to the R now? Seems like the difference might be very tiny especially for us normal folks.

Chris definitely knows how to spank a Ducati. I would really like to see how this performs on S22s or similar. All these Ducati launches have you on slicks, but when you get a Panigale on road tires they kind of fall apart a bit in terms of dynamics. I don't fault them for this necessarily. Maybe they're just meant to ride on slicks. But they're not sold with slicks.

Bravo! Bravi tutti!

👍 Fantastic review

Awesome Review

Give this guy a raise now!

Debating between the V4 or the V4s...Pretty much the same bike besides the Ohlins correct? Second as sexy as the akrapovic exhaust is and the added horsepower, would you see its recommended for beginning track riders. All in all thanks for this great review. I wish there was one this detailed on the sk1rr 2020 as Im debating between the V4 standard and the RR. Thanks! Kyle

Cutting zombies in half - now there's a new edge to motorcycle marketing!

Excellent review, can’t wait to ride one

This review is Designer approved.

So with the ecu’s and the mapping, who is truly controlling the bike? The computer 30%, rider 70%? Bottom line according to this review, it doesn’t matter because it just makes the experience more fun. And isn’t that what we buy these things for?

Thanks Chris.I get my state pension soon.My supersport 937 will have to go .i just need this for a tootle to the pub....

Compliments really great review👍👍

What is that round your neck? Would you recommend this bike for novice riders? I'm currently riding a bmw s1000r looking for lil more power but I'm not a great rider, only been riding bout 2yrs at 59 yrs old lol

Gr8 review siR...

I wonder if that new mapping will make it slower than the 2019 on straightaway since you get a less torque on the first 3 lower gears.

Excellent review 👌🏽🏁

More Chris please.

Well that was rather good !

Great review! ty...

So is V4S a tuned down V4R ? Or the opposite ??

Will there be a speciale version?

Favorite video on this bike. Bought one a couple weeks ago. Question, I love that AGV Ducati helmet at 11 minutes in but cant seem to fine online. custom? any idea? thanks

Great review

I'm surprised v4s aren't more popular. Especially in cars.

Never mind how good the bike is how good is your fucking job!!!!!

Its my dream bike😍😍

Ducati made a great job: now that massive power can be handled also for a guy like myself.

why dont they have wings where the hands are ?

Joe Dirt did a great job in this review. "I got the poo on me!"

Best review yet again from chris but you look more 'american' every time i see you 😄🙈

"You just feel like you can't crash the thing..." OK, hand it over. :p

Geezzzzz.... it sounded like the GP bik

Is the Panigale V4S a good starter bike or should I go for the simple V4 version?

If someone ever decides to make a movie featuring the band Iron Maiden circa 1982 then I think I found the perfect Bruce Dickinson

...really feels like you cant crash this thing....hold my beer

The pattern on dat cushion u r sitting on resemble with our shawl used by our tribes.

I haven’t even put mine into RACE mode yet.

This thing about the wings. If you dont like them dont buy the bike, buy something else. All this talk about how they look and questioning there function like they know better than Ducati. Just irritates me🙄

So how come there so not fast in gp racing

Chris calling himself a normal rider puts me in the rankings of a absolute beginner who is about to take the msf course...

NICE VID.......

❤️

i like this kid

Toying with the idea of getting one of these but i can’t seem to let go of my 1299 it’s turned me into a bit of a vtwin fanboy.

Padre Panigale.

f**k yeah!!
