Ducati starts V4 production and the first one’s ready to go. Yeah, the most gorgeous bike so far is here!

The first Ducati V4 has rolled off the production line with factory workers marking the occasion with a ceremony for the MotoGP-machine-on-the-road.

Joining the workers were Claudio Domenicali (CEO Ducati Motor Holding – pouring the Prosecco) and Silvano Fini (Plant Director).

The 210bhp superbike is the Italian factory’s pinnacle of road-going tech right now with a host of bits and pieces pulled directly from the firm’s MotoGP and WSB stables.

That sound? That’s the goalposts moving. Again.
