After a short run-through of the bike by Sebi, the junior manager, I got on my way. The first thing that struck me was the higher sitting position (845 mm) in comparison to my Monster 821 (+35 mm). You\u2019re sat upright and even leant forward like in a racing-position. Straight away I felt at home in the saddle, completely integrated into the motorbike.<\/p>\n<h4><strong>START SLOW, THEN MORE AGGRESSIVE<\/strong><\/h4>\n<p>After I had studied the Streetfighter V4\u2019s performance data in my preparation for the test, I afforded the bike the huge respect it deserved. Never before had I ridden such a powerful bike on the road. Due to the characteristics of the V4, however, the motorbike is very tame at low revs, you don\u2019t have that feeling of sitting on a 200 horsepower rocket. I didn\u2019t notice a huge difference between this and the half as powerful V2 of my Monster 821. I had expected a bit more.<\/p>\n<p>The tables turned however from 6000 rpm onwards and the 1,103 cm\u00b3 Desmosedici Stradale engine really took off. Since the Fighter only had around 500 km (310 miles) on the clock, it was still in its breaking-in phase. Above 8000 rpm the rev counter turns to orange to show that it mustn\u2019t be revved much higher just yet. But also in this area I could already guess where this is heading. The maximum torque of 123 Nm clocks in at 11,500 rpm, the 208 horsepower maximum output gets to 12,750 rpm, you reach the red area at 14,500 rpm.[\/vc_column_text]<div class=\"wpb_content_element

along Lake Millstatt and then on via Radenthein to Bad Kleinkirchheim. Before dismounting on the Turracher H\u00f6he Pass I turned left in the direction of the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.nockalmstrasse.at\/na\/en\/index\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Nockalm Road<\/a>. The road is located within the Nockberge Mountain Biosphere Park. At 1,490 km\u00b2 the outstanding region, declared nature reserve by UNESCO, stretches over Salzburg\u2019s Lungau region and Carinthia\u2019s Nockberge mountains. The 34 km (21 miles) long scenic road twists and turns in 52 corners and countless curves from the Ebene Reichenau area in the south through to Innerkrems in the north.<\/p>\n<p>The weather on that day was touch-and-go. It didn\u2019t rain for the most part, however the road was wet more often than not. Remarkably, there were quite a few supercars on the road as well, looking to use the light traffic as well for an enjoyable drive. The first pass coming from the south was the Schiestlscharte at 2,024 m (6,640 ft) above sea level. Up there you can find the Glockenh\u00fctte Inn, which is a popular stop for motorcyclists.<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #333333;\">[\/vc_column_text]<div class=\"wpb_content_element ut-gallery-5

manageable and unexpectedly easy to ride, it steers eagerly into the corners. The Brembo Stylema brakes applied so forcefully when decelerating that at first I was somewhat surprised. At the front, two brake callipers apply pressure with four 30 mm pistons respectively on the two 330 mm brake discs, to the rear, the full hydraulic disc brake works on a 245 mm brake disc. Included is the on-board ABS Cornering EVO made by Bosch. The accompanying electronic package, of MotoGP fame, also includes everything technologically feasible at this time: Traction-, Wheelie-, Slide- and Engine Brake Control. Power Launch for lightning fast starts and Quick Shifter up\/down to boot. The parameters of the assist system are already factory pre-set for three riding modes: Race, Sport and Street, it can however be individually customised as well.<\/p>\n<p>From the Schiestlscharte, the Nockalm Road climbs uphill again to 1,500 m (4,921 ft) above sea level, then rising again to the highest point, Eisentalh\u00f6he at 2,042 m (6,700 ft). Because of the threatening clouds I started off on my returning journey from there. Back at Moto-Point Granitzer I was greeted upon the conclusion of my trip by the V4\u2019s predecessor, a Streetfighter 848, which was manufactured from 2012-2015.<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #333333;\">[\/vc_column_text]<div class=\"wpb_content_element ut-gallery-5  clearfix\"><style type=\"text\/css\">#ut_ig_6a06eb93aa306 .ut-lazy:not(.ut-image-loaded) + .ut-video-module-loading { display:block; }#ut_ig_6a06eb93aa306 .ut-lazy.ut-image-loaded + .ut-video-module-loading { display:none; }<\/style><div id=\"ut_ig_6a06eb93aa306\" class=\"ut-image-gallery ut-image-gallery-module  ut-image-gallery-5 clearfix\" data-settings=\"{&quot;animate&quot;:true,&quot;effect&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;lazy&quot;:true,&quot;delay_animation&quot;:false,&quot;global_delay_animation&quot;:false,&quot;delay_timer&quot;:100,&quot;global_delay_timer&quot;:100}\" ><div  data-count=\"3\" class=\"ut-image-gallery-item ut-animation-done grid-33 tablet-grid-33 mobile-grid-100\"><a class=\"ut-vc-images-lightbox ut-vc-images-lightbox-group-image\" data-exthumbimage=\"https:\/\/www.arminonbike.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/16_armin-hoyer_ducati-streetfighter-v4-motopoint.jpg\" href=\"https:\/\/www.arminonbike.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/16_armin-hoyer_ducati-streetfighter-v4-motopoint.jpg\"><div class=\"ut-image-gallery-image\" ><img decoding=\"async\"  class=\" ut-lazy skip-lazy\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml;charset=utf-8,%3Csvg xmlns%3D'http%3A%2F%2Fwww.w3.org%2F2000%2Fsvg' viewBox%3D'0 0 1200 800'%2F%3E\" data-src=\"https:\/\/www.arminonbike.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/16_armin-hoyer_ducati-streetfighter-v4-motopoint.jpg\" width=\"1200\" height=\"800\"><\/div><\/a><\/div><div  data-count=\"3\" class=\"ut-image-gallery-item ut-animation-done ut-animation-done grid-33 tablet-grid-33 mobile-grid-100\"><a class=\"ut-vc-images-lightbox ut-vc-images-lightbox-group-image\" data-exthumbimage=\"https:\/\/www.arminonbike.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/17_armin-hoyer_ducati-multistrada-stefano-motopoint.jpg\" href=\"https:\/\/www.arminonbike.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/17_armin-hoyer_ducati-multistrada-stefano-motopoint.jpg\"><div class=\"ut-image-gallery-image\" ><img decoding=\"async\"  class=\" ut-lazy skip-lazy\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml;charset=utf-8,%3Csvg xmlns%3D'http%3A%2F%2Fwww.w3.org%2F2000%2Fsvg' viewBox%3D'0 0 1200 800'%2F%3E\" data-src=\"https:\/\/www.arminonbike.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/17_armin-hoyer_ducati-multistrada-stefano-motopoint.jpg\" width=\"1200\" height=\"800\"><\/div><\/a><\/div><div  data-count=\"3\" class=\"ut-image-gallery-item ut-animation-done ut-animation-done ut-animation-done grid-33 tablet-grid-33 mobile-grid-100\"><a class=\"ut-vc-images-lightbox ut-vc-images-lightbox-group-image\" data-exthumbimage=\"https:\/\/www.arminonbike.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/18_armin-hoyer_ducati-streetfighter-2-gen-motopoint.jpg\" href=\"https:\/\/www.arminonbike.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/18_armin-hoyer_ducati-streetfighter-2-gen-motopoint.jpg\"><div class=\"ut-image-gallery-image\" ><img decoding=\"async\"  class=\" ut-lazy skip-lazy\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml;charset=utf-8,%3Csvg xmlns%3D'http%3A%2F%2Fwww.w3.org%2F2000%2Fsvg' viewBox%3D'0 0 1200 800'%2F%3E\" data-src=\"https:\/\/www.arminonbike.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/18_armin-hoyer_ducati-streetfighter-2-gen-motopoint.jpg\" width=\"1200\" height=\"800\"><\/div><\/a><\/div><div class=\"ut-image-gallery-sizer\"><\/div><div class=\"clear\"><\/div><\/div><\/div>[vc_column_text]<\/span><\/p>\n<h4><strong>ARMIN ON BIKE CONCLUSION<\/strong><\/h4>\n<p>The new Ducati Streetfighter V4 is a very harmonious motorcycle. The aggressive look suits the super naked just as well as the soundtrack from the exhaust pipe, which even in low revs comes out loud and throaty. Let alone the 208 horsepower engine, which lets you see its enormous potential while still in the breaking-in phase. Obviously it begs the question, if such high performance makes sense on public roads, since it can\u2019t begin to exploit its full potential within the legal limits. Those however who sometimes like to take to the racetrack will surely be able to fully enjoy the Panigale genes of the Streetfighter V4.<\/p>\n<p>Text und photos: Armin Hoyer \u2013 arminonbike.com<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #333333;\">[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row]<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Nockalm Road | Carinthia \u2013 Long awaited, revealed in autumn of last year at EICMA in Milan, the new Ducati Streetfighter V4 arrived in June at Austrian dealerships.
