Self-promotion is where Ducati shines for sure. An interesting video. A lucky few got to ride every superbike in the lineup, all the way from the Panigale V4S all the way to the 2021 MotoGP bike.

I really want the simulator for the living room.

 
The first guy you see in the vid that says "Everybody is completely blown away" is the owner of V1 Moto in Houston.
 
wonder who was the fastest in their primes between vito, carlos and jeff nash
 
How are you liking that PP?

The PP is fantastic, for as much as I have ridden it. It's been over 100* here for the past 2 weeks straight and no rain. So it hasn't even hit break in yet.

What I have ridden, it's pretty damn good. Almost as much power as the SFv4 but more comfy with better wind protection.
 
Did you have a 1200 or 1260? I had a 1200 PP that was a little too top-heavy for my liking (otherwise great). Wondering if this one carries its weight lower like a GS.

I did not have the 1200 or 1260. I almost bought the 1260PP, but ended up getting a KTM SD R instead.

I would say the V4 PP is a bot more top heavey than my 1250GS, hard to beat the weight of both Boxer cylinders being so low. The V4 PP is so much better on road though, the 17" front tire makes direction change much easier than the lower CoG of the GS.

I may bring the PP to COTA for RR Fest in Oct or the RS trackdays in November.

You going to RS August 13/14?

Was this a one-off or special invitation event or something? I checked the Ducati racing experience website and the top tier event is like 3500 euros. No way they’re letting any Joe Schmuckatelli ride the wsbk and MotoGP bike for 3500 euros.
 
I will be there, riding, on the 13th with my RSV4. I will be there on the 14th too, haven't decided if I am going to ride or just hangout though.

Cool. @saccardo and I will be there sharing a garage with a couple others, and with @MOTION SBK providing trackside support. We might have room if you’re interested.
 
Ridesmart and Nate Kearn track days.

If you make the trip, you’ll not likely be disappointed.
What organization are you guys going through for COTA dates?

If you can only make the trip for one weekend at COTA, do the Nate Kern days(Nate Kern DoubleRFest | Kern Track Days). The track is less crowded and you get a complimentary dinner on Saturday night. BMW also has rides in M cars during lunch you can sign up for... they drive, but I heard it was fun, I was relaxing!
Last year they gave away a couple helmets and some MotoGP tickets at the dinner.

Also, if you come, the hotels in Buda aren't too expensive, there is a Starbucks and some shopping. Kyle, TX is just south, couple minutes, with more shopping. And the track is less than 15 minutes away.

If I heard correctly, 200 of the 500 V4SL owners for the SBK experience, only 30 are eligible for the MotoGP experience.
