Ducati Premier Financing (V4 Panigale)

My plan is to get a 1290GT next year as my daily/touring bike.

I've not ridden the 1290 GT... they run about 1 year of development behind the R. So the 2021 model should be "all new" since the 2020 R is new.

The Super Adv S & R are really good. Rode one last year at COTA during the GP... had I not had the SD R, I would have bought the SA over my BMW GS

Yes. That is why it is next year.

I was really impressed with the 1250 GS I rode, but adventure bike are just not for me. If I am off pavement I am riding single track.

I considered the H2 before I bought the V4S. Completely different bike. That bike is about power, V4 is about power and handling. From the reading I did, the H2 is pretty slow for what it is stock. Quite a few bikes out-accelerate it stock for stock. You really need to be prepared to mod it to get the crazy supercharged acceleration out of it.

totally. I was going to have the shop fab a forced induction system for the Triumph like this but it wasn’t worth it



It would definitely be worth it to mod out a H2 to the max, 400 HP and everything else that goes along with it including the ludacris extended swing arm. But is there a point where it’s just unnecessary?

I ask because going from triumph 675 to Ducati 1285 big twin, the gap in enjoyment is huge. But would going from a 200hp Ducati to a 400hp stretched out drag bike be any more enjoyable than a beautiful red Ducati? It probably wouldn’t be as rewarding as a Ducati for ripping around the filthy streets cause the maneuverability suffers

what is a single track? Is that like farm equipment

Single track is tight paths, usually reserved for skinny dirt bikes or super light dual sports.

Does that mean that single track means riding through the woods on trails? I thought single track was a machine maybe a special dirt bike or something

Well if you take single track literally, here is my nitrous equipped single track.

When I say single track I meant the definition above. Tight off road on a dirt bike or dual sport. A place where you would not want to be on a 600lb+ bike. Like the tops of mountains.

that is so cool! You need something like that living up in the arctic. It looks like it rips

let’s see some pix of that orange or red Mustang or Cuda looking car

1970 mustang mach 1. Slowly going through a frame-off restore on it.
