Power Mode
The Power Modes are the different engine maps the
rider can select to change power level and delivery to
suit his/her own riding style and surface conditions.
For the Panigale V4 there are three Power Modes,
one for each Riding Mode:
- LOW, with 'soft' power delivery;
- MEDIUM, with 'soft' power delivery;
- HIGH, with 'instant' power delivery.
Ride by Wire (RbW)
The Ride by Wire system is the electronic device that
controls throttle opening and closing. Since there is
no mechanical connection between the throttle
twistgrip and the throttle bodies, the ECU can adjust
power delivery by directly affecting throttle opening
angle.
The Ride by Wire system allows you to obtain
different power level and delivery according to the
selected Riding Mode (Power Mode), but even to
accurately control the engine brake (EBC), thereby
helping to control the rear wheel slipping (DTC).
Ducati Traction Control (DTC)
26
The Ducati Traction Control system (DTC) supervises
the rear wheel slipping control and settings vary
through eight different levels that are calibrated to
offer a different tolerance level to rear wheel slipping.
Each Riding Mode features a pre-set intervention
level. Level 8 indicates system intervention whenever
a slight slipping is detected, while level 1 is for track
use and very expert riders because it is less sensitive
to slipping and intervention is hence softer.
Ducati Slide Control (DSC)
The Ducati Slide Control (DSC) system assists the
rider during the acceleration when exiting a curve in
order to better control the side slipping of the rear
wheel. The system thus improves the intervention of
the single DTC function that works on the tyre
longitudinal slipping providing better assistance in
extreme riding conditions.
Anti-lock Braking System (ABS)
The ABS system fitted to the Panigale V4 is a safety
system preventing wheel lockup while braking,
adopting different strategies depending on the
selected level while riding with the motorcycle
straight and not leaning over. The active presence of
strategies and their intervention level depend on the
