For riders who crave a motorcycle that embodies raw power and a touch of mystique, Ducati India has unveiled the Panigale V2 Black. This stunning iteration of the Panigale V2 trades the iconic Ducati Red for a menacing gloss black paint scheme, accented by sharp red decals on the fairing, fuel tank, and wheels.
The Panigale V2 Black is more than just a cosmetic update; it’s a statement for those who seek a motorcycle that reflects their individuality. The black paintwork exudes an air of sophistication and stealth, perfect for riders who prefer a more understated presence.
A Beast Beneath the Black Skin
While the color scheme sets it apart, the Panigale V2 Black retains the heart and soul of the Panigale V2. At its core lies a potent 955cc, liquid-cooled, L-twin engine that pulsates with 155 horsepower at 10,750 rpm and 104 Nm of torque at 9,000 rpm. This ferocious engine is paired with a slick-shifting six-speed gearbox, promising an exhilarating ride that begs to be unleashed on the open road.
Technological Prowess for Unparalleled Control
The Panigale V2 Black isn’t just about brute force; it’s a marvel of modern motorcycle engineering. Ducati has equipped this machine with a comprehensive suite of electronic rider aids, designed to enhance control and confidence on every ride.
- Ride Modes: Select from various ride modes pre-programmed for different riding conditions, including “Sport,” “Street,” and “Rain.” Each mode adjusts power delivery, traction control, and ABS settings to optimize your ride.
- Power Modes: Fine-tune the engine’s performance with selectable power modes, allowing you to tailor the power output to your riding style and skill level.
- Cornering ABS: This advanced ABS system ensures maximum braking performance even when mid-corner, preventing wheel lockup and maintaining stability.
- Traction Control: Ducati’s sophisticated traction control system helps prevent rear-wheel slip during acceleration, keeping you in control and preventing unwanted skids.
- Engine Brake Control: This system minimizes engine braking during downshifts, ensuring smoother gear changes and a more comfortable ride.
All these features are conveniently accessible through the motorcycle’s full-color TFT display, which provides a clear and intuitive interface for monitoring essential ride data and adjusting settings on the fly.
A Chassis Built for Precision Handling
The Panigale V2 Black boasts a lightweight aluminum monocoque frame that delivers exceptional rigidity and agility. This translates to razor-sharp handling and a confidence-inspiring ride, whether navigating twisty mountain roads or carving up the racetrack.
The suspension setup comprises a 43mm fully-adjustable Showa USD fork at the front and a fully-adjustable Sachs monoshock at the rear. This high-performance suspension absorbs bumps and imperfections with ease, ensuring a smooth and comfortable ride even on challenging terrain.
Stopping Power to Match the Performance
When it comes to braking, the Panigale V2 Black inspires confidence with its high-performance braking system. Twin 320mm discs with Brembo Monobloc M 4.32 calipers at the front provide immense stopping power, while a single 245mm disc with a caliper at the rear ensures balanced braking performance.
