VOLUME 62 ISSUE 18 MAY 6, 2025 P121 left more of an impression on me than the new motor. Put simply, this is probably the easiest sporty Ducati to ride I've sampled, maybe ever. It's almost Japanese in how it goes about the business of getting through twisties, being ex - ceptionally light on its feet in direction changes, and with braking stability and force that belies its size. The slightly revised ergos with that 30mm wider handlebar put the rider in the near-perfect attack naked-bike riding position. The Ohlins NIX30 fork and shock have been used so extensively on so many previous bikes that I can't pretend to tell you anything new about them, other than to say they work and work well, but the way the whole pack - age gels together is a true step forward for Ducati.
