We knew going into it that the Ducati Streetfighter V4 would be an expensive motorcycle, and I have been telling readers to brace for a $20,000 price tag since this bike first began teasting.
Well, sometimes it sucks to be right, because the 2020 Ducati Streetfighter will certainly come with an MSRP of $19,995 – which is a lot of money for a naked motorcycle, and places the red bike at the top of the pricing heap in the category.
For those who are interested in the Ducati Streetfighter V4 S, you better hold onto your butts, because the up-spec model will mean an additional $4,000 from your wallet, with an MSRP of $23,995.
That extra $4,000 gets you forged aluminum wheels from Marchesini (the base model uses cast aluminum wheels), and it replaces the Showa BPF forks and Sachs shock with Öhlins electronic suspension pieces, which are nice upgrades.
With 205hp (153 kW) on tap, and a curb weight of 443 lbs ( base model), the Ducati Streetfighter V4 makes a strong showing on the spec sheet, and perhaps justifies the pricing premium that Ducati is bringing to the table.
Of course, we won’t really know that until we can swing a leg over the bike, which we can’t wait to do. Until then, the bench spec sheet racing will continue.
