The new V2 models, respectively -17kgs and -18kgs from their predecessors, mark a new chapter in the history of Ducati’s mid-size sports bikes.  While maintaining the unmistakable Ducati Sport DNA and the latest technology pack, the new Panigale V2 and Streetfighter V2 promise a vastly unchanged performance level on the track, while reducing the riding efforts on the road, for improved agility and riding pleasure.

The new Panigale V4 , launched last July and welcomed with great enthusiasm by the press and public around the world.

The Multistrada family is present with the Multistrada V4S Facelift, featuring the new innovations such as the DVO system, extended deactivation, new strategies for the Skyhook semi-active suspension and eCBS braking system, rear fog light and Automatic Lowering Device. Also on the stand are the new V4 Pikes Peak , with its Ohlins SmartEC suspension and 17-inch rims, designed for the sportiest Multistradisti, as well as the Multistrada V4 RS, with the Desmosedici Stradale V4 engine producing superbike-level of power at 180hp. Also making appearance at the stand is the Multistrada V4 Rally with its heightened comfort and greater range.

In the Ducati Scrambler space, the public can see for the first time in the UK the new Icon Dark and the new Full Throttle, as well as a unique customisation realised by the well-known Image Design Custom studio.

The existing range of Ducati’s line up is also present at the stand, including the Hypermotard 698 Mono, and the DesertX with the Rally and the new Discovery models. Completing the appearances on stage are the Diavel V4 , voted ‘Best of the Best’ in the context of the prestigious Red Dot Award 2024, and the Monster SP.

In addition to the stunning lineup of Ducati’s road bikes, the stand is also the home for the Ducati Panigale V4R race bike from the BSB team Hager PBM Ducati.
