W
ith the recent
announcement of a
Ducati V4 Panigale-
based Streetfighter
line-up, you can
expect interest in the original
V-twins to be reignited. People
who either don’t want or can’t
afford the V4 but like the whole
concept will take a new interest
in its predecessors.
Back in 2009, Ducati’s launch
of the series made all sorts
of sense. It filled in a niche
between the Monsters and
the pure sports models –
essentially a ratbag version on
steroids. Think Speed Triple
with an Italian accent.
