9000 miles per oil change? why do they even paper something that stupid...
what stupid in this exactly if you use the bike for shitbucks runs ?
You know short duration cycles on motor oil is the worst right. Figure 5mi each way that’s 1800 short trips/cycles never reaching temp. I would wager a black stone analysis of that oil would show it was toast long before that 9000miles.

Don’t see it replacing the Superquadro in a midsize Panigale. Or Ducati marketing a Panigale V2 replacement with 35hp less than the current bike.
As with the latest Ducati V4 engines, the gearbox can be equipped with Ducati Quick Shift Up and Down (DQS) 2.0. The second-generation DQS uses a strategy based solely on the gear sensor, so that it can use a pedal control with no microswitch. This solution gives the rider more direct feeling, with reduced travel and none of the “gumminess” typical of traditional quick shifters, as well as facilitating the identification of neutral.
I dig it so far. I'm super interested in the tech
What’s the new tech? This has all been done before. The only thing new is the marketing pitch.
Though, expect this to be the roadmap for the V4 which has already happened on the Multistrada side
