The ABS system on the Streetfighter V2 comes complete with cornering function, for ABS intervention even when the bike is tilted. Cornering ABS can be set according to three levels to meet the needs of all riders, whether on track or road, even in critical conditions of low grip.

While level 3 is suitable for the road or for conditions of low grip, levels 2 and 1 are aimed more at sports riding on high grip surfaces or on track.

Level 2 is recommended for amateur track use. The system manages both the front and rear braking systems and keeps the cornering function activated in the absence of lift control, for more sports-style braking. Level 1 is designed for expert track use, ensuring race-specific intervention with the ABS system acting only on the front wheel. 

Streetfighter V2 is equipped with the latest version of Ducati Wheelie Control (DWC). Using information from the six-axis IMU, this system controls wheelies and allows the rider to achieve maximum acceleration simply and safely.

The DTC interfaces with the 6-axis inertial platform to adapt intervention and slip to the bike’s lean angle. The DTC can be set according to 8 different levels (6 for dry conditions, 2 for wet), allowing the rider to adapt the control strategy to suit their riding style and the grip conditions, for maximum performance.

EBC (Engine Brake Control) has been revised to help riders optimise stability of the bike in extreme conditions of corner entry, balances the forces that the rear tyre is subject to in conditions of intense engine brake application. 

The new Streetfighter V2 uses the second-generation DQS that debuted on the new Panigale V4. With respect to a traditional quick shift, the gear lever with internal Hall-effect micro-switch is replaced with a direct mechanical lever. This is possible because the shifting strategy is based solely on the gear sensor that supplies information as to the gear and position in degrees of the gear drum. This solution gives the rider a more direct feeling, with reduced travel, that is repeatable and less “rubbery”, particularly beneficial when riding on track.

The new Streetfighter V2 S is equipped with the Ducati Power Launch and Pit Limiter. The first is a system that guarantees lightning starts, allowing the rider to focus only on releasing the clutch. The second, which can be activated via the dedicated button, automatically limits bike speed along the pitlane. DPL and Pit Limiter are available as accessories for the Streetfighter V2.

The Riding Modes allow the rider to choose between four different, pre-set riding styles (Race, Sport, Road, Wet) that offer pre-configured intervention levels, which can be modified by the user, for all the controls and engine response (High/Medium/Low Power Mode) to ensure that the behaviour of the V2 bike perfectly suits the rider, type of surface and environmental conditions. The Wet Riding Mode, recommended for low grip surfaces, is associated with Low Power Mode, which limits engine power to 95 hp.
