Rider Profile

Best ForThis is a machine best suited to experienced riders who are comfortable with high-revving superbike power delivery and aggressive geometry.
PurposeBuilt primarily for spirited road riding and track days, rewarding precise inputs with sharp, confidence-inspiring cornering performance.
Rider FitThe committed sportbike riding position, high footpegs, and firm suspension demand a reasonably fit rider and will tire out those unaccustomed to a forward-leaning stance.
CharacterIt suits a rider who values razor-sharp handling, top-shelf Öhlins and Brembo componentry, and the visceral character of a Ducati L-Twin over outright comfort.
Not Ideal ForIt is not the right choice for riders seeking a relaxed commuter, a long-distance tourer, or anyone wanting off-road capability.

2021 Ducati Panigale V2 Bayliss Rider Ergonomics Assessment

Calculated in your browser only - your height/inseam are never sent to our servers.

Feet:

At 835mm, a rider of 175cm with a 79cm (estimated) inseam will reach the ground with balls of both feet on the 2021 Ducati Panigale V2 Bayliss, with a cramped knee angle of around 75 degrees and a forward-leaning riding position.

Data quality: measured. Assumes about 30mm of suspension sag once seated (a typical street-bike rule of thumb - stiffer or softer suspension will vary). This is an approximation from category-typical geometry and generic body proportions, not a measurement of this specific bike or you - sit on it before you buy.
