The Ducati Streetfighter V4 has made its global debut as the fastest and most powerful naked bike in Ducati’s lineup. Built on the recently launched Panigale V4 platform, the Streetfighter V4 comes in two variants: Standard and S.
Ducati Streetfighter V4: Design
The new Streetfighter V4 maintains the Panigale legacy, minus the fairings. With improved weight distribution and more balanced proportions, the Streetfighter V4 boasts a more lean forward dynamic riding stance. This Ducati features a fully redesigned full-LED headlight and a new full-LED split tail light in a double-C shape. Like the Panigale V4, it sports a pair of biplane wings on the tank extensions and another pair on the radiator shroud. Ducati claims these wings generate up to 45 kg of downforce at 270 kmph, which is 17 kg more than the current model.
Ducati Streetfighter V4: Engine
The 2025 Streetfighter V4 is powered by a 1,103cc Desmosedici Stradale engine with an output of 211 bhp at 13,500 rpm and 119 Nm of torque at 11,250 rpm. By weighing 189 kg, Ducati claims that the new Streetfighter V4 has a class-leading power-to-weight ratio of 1.13 hp/kg. The powertrain is mated to a 6-speed gearbox with a bi-directional quick shifter.
Ducati Streetfighter V4: Electronics
The Streetfighter V4 offers four riding modes—Race, Sport, Road, and Wet—along with four power modes: Full, High, Medium, and Low. It also comes equipped with features like wheelie control, slide control, launch control, and multiple traction control settings. The bike boasts a 6.9-inch digital dashboard with an 8:3 aspect ratio for clear, easy-to-read information.
Ducati Streetfighter V4: Hardware
Built on the Panigale V4 chassis, the new Streetfighter V4 is 3.47 kg lighter at the front compared to the previous model. The frame’s stiffness has also been adjusted, making it 39 per cent less stiff sideways, which improves stability when leaning into corners and helps maintain a smoother line through turns. The double-sided Ducati Hollow Symmetrical Swingarm boosts traction when exiting corners and improves the rider’s feel during acceleration. It’s 43 per cent less stiff sideways than the previous single-sided swingarm, and the entire swingarm and rear wheel setup is 2.9 kg lighter. On the Streetfighter V4 S, the aluminium alloy wheels are inspired by the Ducati’s MotoGP team and are lighter, with the front wheel weighing 2.95 kg and the rear 4.15 kg.
The top model Streetfighter V4 S is equipped with third-generation electronically controlled Ohlins NIX/TTX suspension the offers a wider range of adjustments. The Standard version, on the other hand, comes with a 43 mm Showa Big Piston Fork and Sachs mono-shock at the rear with both being fully adjustable manually. Like the new Ducati Panigale V4, the Streetfighter V4 also comes with Brembo Hypure front brake callipers for improved braking performance.
