In the heart of the Motor Valley, against the prestigious backdrop of the San Marino Grand Prix and the Rimini Riviera, the Ducati Streetfighter V4 Lamborghini was unveiled to the public:

The Ducati Street Fighterthe most attractive and exclusive ever produced, is a motorcycle that perfectly embodies the values ​​of extreme performance, sportiness and exclusivity that all have in common Ducati and Lamborghini, two brands of excellence that have contributed to writing the history of the Motor Valley and who, with this project, renew and strengthen their collaboration. The result? A magical combination of technology, performance and beauty, capable of making enthusiasts dream at first sight.

By applying the technical basis of the Panigale V4 S 2023 and integrating elements that characterize the DNA of Lamborghini, Ducati has managed to create a hyper-exclusive model. Produced in a numbered series limited to 630 + 63 units, the motorcycle takes up the concepts that gave birth to the Lamborghini Huracan STO.

The Huracán STO is the highest performance model ever made in the Huracán family, a super sports car created for the sole purpose of offering all the thrills of sporty driving and the technology of a real racing car in a model homologated for the road. A lightweight approach and functional design come together to express absolute performance.

We find in the Ducati Streetfighter V4 Lamborghini many characteristic elements of the Lamborghini style, starting with the forged rims designed specifically for this motorcycle with the design of the Huracán STO. The rear rim is enhanced with a titanium lock nut displaying the Lamborghini design.

Centro Stile Ducati has redesigned the superstructures of this special motorcycle, taking strong inspiration from the Huracán STO: the front fender, the tank cover, the lower and rear armor, all new components, the grille extractors, vents and air intakes explicitly recall those of the car. More precisely, the mudguard is inspired by the air vents integrated into the « cofango » of the Lamborghini, the extractors on the lower shield evoke the cooling intakes of the rear brakes of the Huracán STO, those present on the side covers of the tank recall the air vents of the front wings of the car, while the extractors of the rear of the single-seater refer to those of the bonnet of the Lamborghini.

Further proof of the obsessive attention to detail that characterizes this bike, all carbon components (including the aforementioned front fender, lower shield, radiator cover, fenders, tank cover and rear ) have the same texture as seen on the company’s super sports cars from Sant’Agata Bolognese. The saddle of the motorcycle is also inspired by the finish of the seats of the Huracán STO, as evidenced by the reflections of the same color.

The Ducati Streetfighter V4 Lamborghini is enhanced with other premium components: solid aluminum adjustable footpegs, lightweight solid aluminum brake and clutch levers, heel guards, seat pad, dashboard cover and ignition switch cover as well as a special carbon fiber sprocket cover used for body components.

The same carbon fiber is used in the parts aimed at providing protection against heat, in the covers of the rear cylinder head and the manifolds of the corresponding cylinder group, but also in the headlight support, in the rear mudguard and in the protections of the subframe.

The side view of the Ducati Streetfighter V4 Lamborghini is enhanced by the Akrapovič titanium exhaust silencer with a carbon fiber end cap.

The model name and serial number of the motorcycle are indicated on a metal plate inserted in the cover of the central tank. The number is also machined from solid aluminum, and appears on the TFT dash upon ignition, accompanied by a celebratory animation showing the Ducati and Lamborghini badges and the model’s silhouette.

The Ducati Streetfighter Lamborghini will be manufactured in 630 examples in Verde Citrea and Arancio Dac color, one of the specific color combinations of the Huracán STO. The fenders and Brembo brake calipers are also colored in Arancio Dac, with the calipers sporting a contrasting black logo. The Öhlins seatstays and fork legs are also black.

In addition to the 630 Verde Citrea/Arancio Dac units, Ducati offers an even more exclusive series of 63 motorcycles, called Speciale Clienti, which are only intended for 63 Lamborghini customers. Thanks to a direct collaboration with the Centro Stile Ducati, the customer will be able to configure his Ducati Streetfighter V4 Lamborghini Speciale Clienti with body colors and rims identical to those of his Lamborghini car. It will also be possible to choose the color of the brake calipers from those included in the palette (yellow, red, black and California orange, in addition to the standard color) and the details of the saddle from the four versions available.

The heart of the Ducati Streetfighter V4 Lamborghini is the 1,103 cc Desmosedici Stradale engine producing 208 hp, characterized by a counter-rotating crankshaft, desmodromic timing with four valves per cylinder and a twin-pulse firing order derived from the MotoGP. On the Ducati Streetfighter V4 Lamborghini, the engine is distinguished by a dry clutch, as on the Ducati MotoGP and Superbike.

The aluminum front frame uses the engine as a stressing element. Suspension is provided by semi-active Öhlins Smart EC 2.0 units, while the Brembo braking system relies on Stylema calipers and 330mm discs. With carbon biplane fins integrated into the tank side covers, the aerodynamic package stabilizes the bike at high speeds without compromising its agility or handling. Curb weight is 197.5 kg (435.5 lb).

The Ducati Streetfighter V4 Lamborghini comes with accessories that increase its appeal and ease of adjustability for track use. These accessories include the carbon fiber open cover for the dry clutch, the cover plates for the license plate and the mirrors, a racing gas tank cap and a protective cover in the same color as the bodywork. Added to this is an aluminum certificate of authenticity, on which the numbers of the frame and the engine appear, in order to guarantee the originality of the motorcycle and to further emphasize its exclusive character.

Additionally, the owners of the Ducati Streetfighter V4 Lamborghini have the option of enhancing their look with a limited edition helmet, jacket and leather trim, the color of which evokes that of the motorcycle. In addition, for buyers of the Speciale Clienti version, the leather trim can also be customized in the colors used for the configuration, limited to the choice offered by the Dainese palette.

The Lamborghini Ducati Streetfighter V4 was unveiled at the Grand Prix of San Marino and the Riviera of Rimini, at the Marco Simoncelli World Circuit. The collaboration between Ducati and Lamborghini, which had already given life in 2021 to the Diavel 1260 Lamborghini inspired by Siàn – so successful that it was sold out in a few days – will also continue on the MotoGP circuits. Since the Grand Prix of San Marino and the Rimini Riviera, the crest of the company from Sant’Agata Bolognese also appears on the Desmosedici GPs of the Ducati Lenovo team.

The Ducati Streetfighter V4 Lamborghini will be available at US and Canadian Ducati dealerships from May 2023 with a starting MSRP of $68,000 in the US and $76,600 in Canada.
