For this special event, I brought two special bikes \u2013 my V4 Superleggera and a new V4 <a href=\"https:\/\/touchupdirect.com\/videos\/video-ride-of-v4-streetfighter-at-laguna-seca-touchupdirect\/\">Streetfighter<\/a> with only 100 miles on it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Part one of my videos shares my ride on the Superleggera V4, which was a bit nerve wracking because of the exclusivity of the bike (only 500 made). It would be impossible to replace if it is destroyed in a wreck. Part two shares my ride on my new Streetfighter.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">For the SL ride, I prepared my bike for the track by putting on Pirelli slick tires to improve traction, removing turn signals to cut down on weight and drag, and adding race tape to protect its finish. I also mounted several GoPros to record the ride, using a V4evo mounting adaptor for the one on my triple clamps.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Before my ride on the Superleggera V4, I took a quick look around the pit at other bikes while my tires warmed up.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">On my ride, I take a few warm up laps before the real full speed laps start around the 6:00 mark. You can see how much race tape I put on the bike by checking it out at the 14:00 mark.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>See Ducati\u2019s most exclusive bike on a track As part of the October 26 Ducati REVS track day event, I&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":4,"featured_media":1407,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"gallery","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"_tud_fp_data":"[]","footnotes":""},"categories":[181],"tags":[602,598,594,603,234,601,204,595],"class_list":["post-1402","post","type-post","status-publish","format-gallery","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-videos","tag-ducati-v4-superleggera","tag-laguna-seca","tag-motorcycle-performance","tag-performance-highlights","tag-touchupdirect","tag-track-experience","tag-uris-vlog-series","tag-video-ride","post_format-post-format-gallery"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v28.1 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/product\/yoast-seo-wordpress\/ -->\n<title>Ducati V4 Superleggera Ride at Laguna Seca | TouchUpDirect Blog<\/title>\n<meta name=\"description\" content=\"Join Uri as he takes the exclusive Ducati V4 Superleggera for a thrilling ride at Laguna Seca.
