The Bologna-based manufacturer has just revealed the 2023 Streetfighter V4. It&#8217;s a Panigale without all the fairings and, as the name implies, looks like a mean little pugilist.<\/p>\n<p>Powered by the company&#8217;s 1,103cc Desmosedici Stradale motor, the bike makes 208 horsepower and 90 pound-feet of torque. Four drive modes \u2014 Full, High, Medium and Low \u2014 determine just how much of that output is turning the rear wheel. There&#8217;s even a Wet Riding mode that helps maintain grip in inclement weather. Similarly, programming for the cooling fan and Engine Brake Control software \u2014 which dispenses engine <a class=\"injectedLinkmain\" href=\"https:\/\/www.autoblog.com\/tag\/brakes\/\" data-ylk=\"elm:context_link;itc:0;pos:1;sec:donut-hole;cpos:1;\">braking<\/a> depending on the rear tire&#8217;s load to help prevent lockup \u2014 have also been revised.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>The Streetfighter V4 uses a single-sided aluminum swingarm that, like on the Panigale, is positioned 4mm higher than before. The new geometry should help increase anti-squat and move weight distribution toward the front. A redesigned fuel tank, which debuted on the updated Panigale V4, should fit riders better in a crouch while providing more capacity at 4.5 gallons. The front end features a mechanically adjustable shock absorber and upside-down fork for hardcore riding.<\/p>\n<p>The Streetfighter comes as a single-rider bike, but Ducati supplies a passenger seat and footpegs as well. An updated instrument display is shared with the Panigale. Overall weight comes in between 392 and <a class=\"injectedLinkmain\" href=\"https:\/\/www.autoblog.com\/bmw\/435\/\" data-ylk=\"elm:context_link;itc:0;pos:1;sec:donut-hole;cpos:2;\">435<\/a> pounds depending on the options and trim level.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>If all that isn&#8217;t enough, the mid-level Streetfighter V4 S adds a semi-active \u00d6hlins suspension and lightweight Marchesini aluminum forged rims. The S can be further distinguished by an exclusive Grey Nero colorway that will set the bike apart from the standard Ducati Rosso.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>The range-topping Streetfighter V4 SP2 model drops the weight even further with split-spoke carbon rims. The reduction in unsprung weight makes the bike dramatically more nimble, Ducati says. The SP2 also features a dry clutch and machined adjustable foot pegs.<\/p>\n<p>SP2 models are denoted by an exclusive Winter Test livery inspired by the pre-season <a class=\"injectedLinkmain\" href=\"https:\/\/www.autoblog.com\/tag\/colors\/\" data-ylk=\"elm:context_link;itc:0;pos:1;sec:donut-hole;cpos:3;\">colors<\/a> of the Ducati MotoGP and WorldSBK race bikes.

Each one will have a serial number laser-etched onto the handlebars, but the company didn&#8217;t say how many would be built.<\/p>\n<p>The Streetfighter family is scheduled to arrive in U.S. and Canadian showrooms in spring 2023.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>If you&#8217;ve been drooling over the Ducati Panigale V4 but prefer riding a naked bike, there&#8217;s some good news.
