Book Review – ‘The Complete Book of Ducati Motorcycles, 2nd Edition: Every Model Since 1946’ by Ian Falloon

There’s a certain romance to Ducati motorcycles, a blend of Italian artistry and engineering wizardry that seduces riders and enthusiasts alike. Ian Falloon’s The Complete Book of Ducati Motorcycles, 2nd Edition: Every Model Since 1946 isn’t just a book; it’s an ode to that passion, a comprehensive chronicle that captures Ducati’s DNA in glossy pages and meticulous details.

Falloon’s reputation as the Ducati historian precedes him, and this book delivers on every promise. Spanning from the early Cucciolo engines that put Ducati on the map to the V4 Panigale beasts dominating today’s superbike arena, this second edition is more than a timeline—it’s an encyclopedia of dreams.

Check Out the Ducati Diavel V4 Black Roadster

Ducati’s Diavel has always been a bit of a rebel within the brand’s stable, and now, the new Ducati Diavel V4 Black Roadster livery takes that renegade attitude to stealth-mode levels of cool.

This power cruiser—if you can even neatly classify it—straddles categories with a 168-horsepower V4 engine, laid-back ergonomics, and a boatload of MotoGP-inspired tech. It’s a cruiser with more power than it has any business flaunting, a bike that doesn’t so much fit into molds as it shatters them.

Check Out the Limited-Run Panigale V4 Tricolore Superbike

The Ducati Panigale V4 Tricolore is a masterpiece of Italian artistry and engineering, unveiled in Miami on December 8.

It’s more than a paint job; this machine is a symphony of performance enhancements and Italian craftsmanship.

The 2025 Ducati Multistrada V2 and V2 S arrive lighter, sharper, and more road-ready, armed with an 890cc engine and a claimed 40-pound weight drop. While it retains the unmistakable Multistrada “beak,” this redesign integrates it more fluidly into the aerodynamic bodywork.

The refined windshield and sleek side deflectors promise better wind protection and rider comfort, while clever air ducts in the radiator shrouds aim to send cooling air to your legs.

Check Out 2025 Ducati Streetfighter V4 and V4 S

The Ducati Streetfighter V4 has always been a fierce contender in the naked bike arena, but for 2025, it takes a leap closer to its fully-faired sibling, the Panigale V4.

Sharing more DNA than ever, the latest Streetfighter is practically a Panigale with the fairings stripped off—just what fans of raw power and precision wanted.

Check Out the 2025 Ducati Streetfighter V2

The 2025 Ducati Streetfighter V2 may have struggled to steal the spotlight from its big brother, the Streetfighter V4 S, but the naked 2025 edition aims to rewrite the script. Introduced in 2022, this compact brawler might’ve debuted during peak hyper-naked mania. But 2025’s updates could finally bring the attention it deserves.

Check Out the 2025 Ducati Panigale V2

The Ducati Panigale V2 has been reigning supreme in WorldSSP, thanks to Adrian Huertas and Nicolo Bulega. But for 2025, the Italians have upped the ante once again with a revamped Panigale V2—and an even hotter V2 S variant. This marks a new chapter as the first Ducati sportbike to ditch desmodromic valves, all in favor of a fresh V-twin engine.
