Ducati Wheelie Control (DWC)
The Ducati Wheelie Control system (DWC)
supervises control of wheelie movement and
settings vary through eight different levels that are
calibrated to offer a different prevention and
reaction to wheelies. Each Riding Mode features a
pre-set intervention level. Level eight indicates a
setting that minimises motorcycle tendency to shift
up in a wheelie and maximises reaction to the same,
if it occurs. While level one is for expert riders and
features a lower wheelie control in terms of
prevention and less strong reaction to the same, if it
occurs.
Engine Brake Control (EBC)
The engine brake control system (EBC) works
together with the slipper clutch to avoid and control
the rear wheel lock-up during aggressive
downshifting.
EBC features a three-tiered operating system and is
integrated in the three Riding Modes.
PIT Lane Speed Limiter
Once the Pit Limiter is enabled, it limits the bike
speed automatically along the pit lane. By accessing
the specific menu, the speed limit can be set from 40
km/h (25 mph) to 80 km/h (50 mph).

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, but even to accurately control
the engine brake (EBC), thereby helping to control
the rear wheel slipping (DTC).
Riding Mode
The rider of a Streetfighter V4 can choose from 3
different preset motorcycle configurations (Riding
Modes) and pick the one that best suits his/her
riding style or ground conditions. The Riding Modes
allow user to instantly change the engine power
delivery that will change the throttle behaviour
(HIGH, MEDIUM, LOW), THE ABS, DTC, DQS, EBC,
DWC, and DSC levels, and instrument panel
graphics.
The Riding Modes available for the Streetfighter V4
are: Race, Sport and Street. Within every Riding
Mode, the rider can customise any settings.
