The Centro Stile Ducati chose a metallic green for the Streetfighter V2 to complement its sleek, modern design, emphasizing the bike’s distinctive features. The matte finish works well with the color scheme of the mechanical components, and the metallic grain produces a striking contrast between the various surfaces. The 2023 Ducati Streetfighter V2 Naked Bike is designed for riders who want a bike with the performance pedigree of the Panigale V2 with the attitude and appearance of the Streetfighter.
A model that is both user-friendly and powerful enough to provide riders with a true sense of exhilaration while they ride, as well as a comprehensive electrical set-up that ensures the safety of its users.
Taking cues from the iconic smile of the Joker, the unique headlamp of the 2023 Ducati Streetfighter V2 Naked Bike is reminiscent of the V-shaped DRL seen on Ducati sports motorcycles. It is part of the Streetfighter V2’s crucial and very sleek design. In August 2022, Ducati will release the new Storm Green Streetfighter V2 color scheme at its North American showrooms.
2023 Ducati Streetfighter V2 Naked Bike – Features and Specs
Ergonomics
The emphasis on road usage and including, sportiness and comfort are hallmarks of ergonomic design. The Panigale V2’s handlebar risers have been replaced with high, broad aluminum grips.

All these enhancements provide the rider more agency during sporty riding while making the bike more practical for regular usage.

Engine
The 2023 Ducati Streetfighter V2 Naked Bike is powered by a 955 cc Super Quadro engine, which produces a peak of 153 hp at 10,750 rpm and a height of 101.4 Nm at 9,000 rpm in terms of torque and horsepower. The engine is very adaptable, proving to be not only practical and fun to use on the road but also effective and ideal for racing.
The Streetfighter V2 project features a shorter final ratio (15/45 versus 15/43) than the Panigale V2, guaranteeing more power to the wheel at highway speeds and improving the engine’s responsiveness when the throttle is opened again.
Chassis
The chassis configuration was a primary emphasis for Ducati engineers working on this new model. The Super Quadro engine is integral to the compact front structure, composed of a monocoque frame made of die-cast aluminum and fastened to the top of the engine.

The 2023 Ducati Streetfighter V2 Naked Bike’s stability is increased by 16 millimeters thanks to the longer single-sided swingarm attached to the engine. The 43 mm Showa BPF front fork and Sachs shock absorber are new additions to this frame, each with their specific calibration to improve the bike’s road manners and make it more versatile on the track.
Wheels and Tires
5-spoke wheels and the latest Pirelli Diablo Rosso IV tires (120/70 ZR17 up front and 180/60 ZR17 out back) provide the 2023 Ducati Streetfighter V2 Naked Bike a responsive feel and enhanced cornering ability. Everything about the braking system is lifted straight off the Panigale V2, right down to the Brembo M4 calipers and pads, with a less harsh bite that suits road usage. Thirty-two radial monobloc calipers with 320 mm discs.
Electronics
The 2023 Ducati Streetfighter V2 Naked Bike borrows the same cutting-edge electrical components found in the Panigale V2 for its use. The inertial measurement unit (IMU) with six axes monitors the bike’s electrical controls and provides real-time position measurements to the control units better than 2022 Ducati Streetfighter V2.
The electronic package consists of Ducati Traction Control (DTC) EVO 2, Ducati Quick Shift up / down (DQS) EVO 2, Ducati Wheelie Control (DWC) EVO, and Ducati Engine Brake Control (EBC) EVO. ABS Cornering is standard on all Ducati motorcycles, and this EVO version has it.
Riding Modes
There are three different Riding Modes available on the 2023 Ducati Streetfighter V2 Naked Bike: Sport, Road, and Wet. The Ducati Multimedia System, which enables a smartphone to be linked, and the Ducati Data Analyzer (DDA + GPS), which collects and analyses riding data, are just two examples of the accessories available in the Ducati Performance catalog that may improve the electronic equipment.
Dashboard
Full-LED headlamps with front daytime running lights and a 4.3-inch color TFT display with an easy-to-use interface bring to mind the familiarity of the Streetfighter V4’s cockpit.
