Here's the side by side with 22 V4S + 25 V4S

Not to throw shade at the data, but didn't every 2020+ Panigale have a 85 Nm rear spring?

Interesting that the trail is 101.5mm which IIRC, deviates from advertised.
 
Agreed. Numbers are suspect. Maybe Karol altered the 22 because a V4S also doesn't have a DU468 and the wheelbase should be 1469 mm not 1476. I measure my swingarm length to 610 (which should also be stock) not 601

The 25 numbers, though, are off from Ducati specs: wheelbase should be 1485, rake 24º with 98 mm trail. Also, having 4 extra mm of fork over the to triple (if that's what fork position means) should equal a steeper rake. It's also interesting that there's less antisquat despite longer swingarm unless they also messed with the swingarm pivot height.
 
Shock length is less on the new bike. Sweet spot for swing arm angle is typically 12-13%. The new bike looks to be able to drive harder, and earlier based on these specs.
 
These are measurements of the bikes done with a Romer coordintate measuring machine.
the shock model and spring do not matter. The only discrepancy I see is that the V4R swingarm length is 601.9 not 601.6 as stated on 22 V4S.

This information is for people who might be interested in buying or riding the new bike, but I realize is open to the scrutiny of people that only complain about Ducatis yet own them.

So to those interested in buying or riding the new bike, take these and all numbers that Ducati or anyone gives with a grain of salt. Measure them yourself and compare to spec
