Desmo Sport DucatiThe heart of the Panigale V4 R is the new 998 cc Desmosedici Stradale R, an engine capable of reaching a maximum engine speed of 16,500 rpm in sixth gear (16,000 in the other ratios) and delivering a maximum power of 218 hp at 15,500 rpm (Euro-5 compliant*), absolute benchmark values in the panorama of supersports bikes of the same displacement.
The new Desmosedici Stradale R, despite all the improvements, delivers slightly reduced performance compared to the previous version due to the limitation generated by the exhaust system complying with the strict Euro-5 homologation. The full potential of this engine, however, is expressed on the track by fitting the racing exhaust, which allows it to reach 237 hp, 3 hp more than the predecessor.
The peculiarity lies in the close ignition of the two cylinders on the left side and then those on the right side of the motorcycle, respectively. In the timing diagram, the ignitions are then placed at 0°, 90°, 290° and 380°.
This particular order of ignition gives the V4 a sound quite similar to that of the Desmosedici MotoGP.
