Ready to Dominate the Track: Ducati Panigale V4 and V2 Get Serious with Performance Accessories

Some motorcycles just *feel* ready for the race — sleek, precise, and palpably alive. Ducati makes that feeling more than skin-deep with its genuine Performance accessories for the Panigale V4 and V2, tailored not for show, but for real track performance.

On the Panigale V4, there’s a complete titanium exhaust crafted in collaboration with Akrapovič and Ducati Corse, not road legal but track-focused. It trims roughly 6.6 kg and lifts power by about 12 HP and torque by 7 Nm — pushing the Desmosedici Stradale engine to 228 HP and 127.8 Nm (ducati.com). The package includes a race-grade polyester air filter and a dedicated engine map that adapts Ducati’s riding aids accordingly (ducati.com). A matching STM EVO-SBK dry clutch with an open carbon fiber cover adds responsiveness — and that unmistakable roar (ducati.com).

Upgrade further with carbon heel guards, lightweight mudguards, alternator covers, fairing winglets, brake-caliper cooling ducts, sliders, lever guards, and a taller windscreen — each part shaped by track intent (ducati.com).

Switching to the Panigale V2, the “Time Attack” package transforms it into a race-ready machine mirroring Ducati’s own training bikes (ducati.com). It includes a Termignoni racing exhaust that boosts power to 126 HP while cutting weight by 4.5 kg (ducati.com), low half-handlebars, adjustable billet aluminum footpegs, carbon heel guards, Öhlins steering damper, and lightweight protection for clutch and alternator casings. To complete the transformation, mirrors, license plate holder, and lights are removed for that pure track stance (ducati.com).

Why It Matters — Sensible Performance You Can Feel

These aren’t just flashy add-ons — they are purpose-built enhancements. On the V4, shedding weight and tuning electronics yields noticeably sharper acceleration and a richer throttle response. On the V2, the Time Attack kit delivers a lighter, track-honed machine that feels more eager through corners and straighter on the straights.

The upgrades — exhaust systems, ergonomics, and protection — are designed to function together seamlessly, translating Ducati’s racing pedigree into a finish line advantage you can feel, lap after lap.
