Ducati "Panigare V4" improves aerodynamic performance at 300km/h ... 2022 announced Europe

On November 25, Ducati announced the 2022 model of "Panigare V4" at Ducati World Premier 2022.

The 2022 model of Panigare V4 is the latest evolution of Ducati's sports bikes.It will be a model that clearly shows Ducati's attitude, which has continuously feed back the know -how and technology that Ducatiikorse has cultivated over many years into mass -produced cars.

◆ New design fairing

In the 2022 model, it has evolved the most since the birth of Panigare V4.Includes all fields, such as aerodynamics, ergonomics, engine, chassis, and electronics.As a result, the circuit has become faster, and at the same time, a wide range of riders has been finished in an intuitive and less tired motorcycle.

Ducati's engineer has been intensively working on improving the fairing.Aerodynamic performance has been improved by combining with a more compact and thin double profile design wing.This improvement has succeeded in obtaining up to 37 kg of downforce at 300km/h.

Furthermore, at the bottom of the fairing, an air emission socket that was redesigned to improve the cooling efficiency was installed.This has improved the performance in circuit driving.

◆ V -type 4 -cylinder engine power 215.Enhanced to 5ps

The 2022 model will be equipped with a 1103cc V -type 4 -cylinder gasoline engine "Desmosedit Stradale" derived from MotoGP.By reviewing some technical elements, the power has increased and the throttle response has been improved.

Maximum output is 1 compared to the conventional type.5ps plus 215.5ps/13000rpm.Also, at 14500 rpm that exceeds the peak power, the power is 2..5ps is increasing.This engine is also 12.A maximum torque of 6kgm/9500rpm is generated, and 80 % of the maximum torque from 6000 rpm is drawn.

The diameter of the two silencer outlets was expanded to 38mm.As a result of reduced discharge, engine performance has been improved.Reviewing the oil circuit and adopting a smaller oil pump has reduced the power loss.

The new gearbox has increased the gear ratio of 1st, 2nd and 6th gears.The same new gear ratio as the SBK machine is more suitable for racing and is suitable for using the circuit.The 1st gear ratio is 11.6 % higher, 2 -speed gear 5.6 % higher.Thanks to this new gearbox, the tight corner has made it easier to drop the gear to the first speed.Not only can the engine brake can be used more effectively, but it also raises acceleration at the corner exit.

◆ Orleans suspension for "S" version

Chassis has also received many important changes.The technical choice is based on the experience cultivated in MotoGP and SBK, aiming to improve the performance on the circuit.They say faster lap time, physical burden, and more integrated consistency.

The engine is directly connected to the aluminum front frame and functions as a chassis structural member.The chassis consists of lightweight magnesium front frames and shell cast aluminum seat posts.The upper part is fixed to the front frame, and the lower part is screwed into the rear bank head.

In the "S" version, Orleans "Smart EC 2).0 "NPX 25/30 pressurized front fork with an electronic control system is equipped.The new folk is 125mm by increasing the number of travel by 5mm compared to the conventional fork.The dumping on the shrinking side is performed on the left rod using a 25mm diameter piston, and the extension dumping is performed on the right rod using a 30mm diameter piston.

This layout is derived from SBK, minimizing the risk of oil cavitation in the full opening of the circuit.As a result, the support power during braking was improved, and the absorption of the bump was improved.All of these have improved their ride comfort and speed, making it easier to push to the limit.
