By RIZAL JOHAN | 21 October 2020


PETALING JAYA: Next Bike Sdn Bhd, the official distributor of Ducati products in Malaysia, has unveiled the Ducati Streetfighter V4, Streetfighter V4 S, the Scrambler 1100 PRO and 1100 Sport PRO priced at RM115,900, RM145,900, RM75,900 and RM80,900 respectively.

Ducati Streetfighter V4 and Streetfighter V4 S
This Panigale V4 is offered in stripped off fairings, a high and wide handlebar, 178kg (dry weight) on the scale, powered by the 1100 cc Desmosedici Stradale delivering 208 hp, aerodynamically enhanced with biplane wings, and finished off with a complete electronics package.

The Streetfighter V4 has the minimalist full-LED headlights, recalling the front of the Panigale V4 while evoking the grin of the Joker (the comic strip character from which the designer of the new naked drew inspiration).

The bike’s elegant yet aggressive design is complete with a front cover that hides the fixings and wirings of the TFT display.

The Streetfighter V4’s fast, agile mixed-road performance demands maximum stability at high speed and when braking, reduced wheel-up during acceleration and minimized electronic control of the suspension set-up.

Ducati Corse specialists together with the Ducati Style Centre have developed aerodynamic biplane wings for the bike for optimum stability without compromising its performance.

The latest-generation electronics package on the Streetfighter V4 is based on a 6-axis Inertial Measurement Unit (6D IMU) which instantly detects the bikes’ roll, yaw and pitch angles.

The electronics oversee every part of the ride; some controls manage start, acceleration and braking, others handle traction, while some lend a helping hand in corners and out-of-corner stretches.

Accompanying the Streetfighter V4, the Streetfighter V4 S featuring Marchesini forged wheels and Öhlins electrically controlled suspension (43 mm NIX30 forks and TTX36 monoshock) and steering damper.

The latter uses the second-generation Öhlins Smart EC 2.0 system which, in addition to making full use of the IMU 6D, provides a more rider-friendly interface.

Ducati Scrambler 1100 PRO and 1100 Sport PRO

Featuring an original design, the new Ducati Scrambler 1100 PRO and 1100 Sport PRO models deliver the exhilaration of a 1079 cm³ engine packing generous torque right from the bottom of the rev range, and a 15-litre steel tank that, combined with a plush seat with enhanced coating, ensures that even the longest ride is as comfortable as it is exciting.

The Ducati Scrambler 1100 PRO stands out for its new two-tone & Ocean Drive colour scheme, combined with a steel Trellis frame and rear aluminium subframe, both finished in black. The aluminium covers are also black.

A new right-side dual tailpipe and low-slung plate holder ensure distinctive rear-end styling and, together with the new livery, give the bike a coiled, compact look.

Another hallmark is the framed headlight; inspired by the protective adhesive tape used back in the ‘70s, a black metal “X” has been incorporated inside the headlight: a detail that makes the bike instantly identifiable, even with the lights off.

The Ducati Scrambler 1100 Sport PRO is the beefiest version in the Scrambler family. It features all the styling details of the PRO, but also a unique equipment set with Öhlins suspension, low-slung handlebars and Café Racer rear-view mirrors.

The 1100 Sport PRO also features a Matt Black colour scheme, complemented by side panels sporting a painted 1100 logo.

Both Ducati Scrambler 1100 PRO variants are also at the forefront of electronics. They are equipped with Ducati Traction Control (DTC), regulated specifically for these models, and ABS Cornering, which ensure safety on every bend.

The three standard Riding Modes (Active, Journey and City) help even less experienced riders to find the right balance in the use of electronic components by choosing their riding style.
