It's not a police state. There are very few police officers compared to the population, even more so in rural areas. Besides, who gives a .... if there is? Take the ticket and get a lawyer.

THANK GOD right?! this is very true in Texas as well...way more cows than people. I think most of my weekend 200-300mi blasts on Saturdays was very very close to a track day....prolly why they popped after 30K miles...

im finding its harder to ride the V4 like this though...its just too damn stupid fast from 11-15K rpm..... and i'm happy with the ducati race tune, it seems to have removed the 1-2-3 gear limitations.

it was for my 2020...and i believe your 2024 V4 with stock/standard gas has same limitations. Its throttle open speed, and max open, and there is apparently some other nannies as well. all removed with race exhaust thank goodness. you should reach out to the tuners on this board, they can tell you for sure

easy way to check, turn DWC OFF, ease out in first gear then pin the throttle...does the front come up? I rode a 2020 race exhaust bike and it stood right up, right to balance point...the stock exhaust bike never got close...was the same on the 2022 with stock exhaust...so i'm a big believer in that ducati tune..

For sure, I’ll definitely look into it. My friend is a mechanic and has a 2021 street fighter he says it applies to his bike which he tuned out, but does not apply to my ‘24 Pan. I’ll definitely speak with some of the tuners here anyone else who knows feel free to chime in.
