(18-24) Ducati V4 / V4S / V4 SP / V4R / V4 SL / Streetfighter Stage 2 ECU Flash Upgrade

If you want your bike to live up to its full potential, this is the tune. I bought the tune for the additional power and getting rid of the lower gear restrictions and it delivered in spades. What really surprised me was the new found rideability! After the tune I went for a ride in traffic and city streets to get to my favorite set of twisties, riding in traffic is where the surprise came in. It is so much more "streetable" than the stock (Ducati Akra) tune. Low speed fueling feels spot on with no more of the bucking that these bikes do at low speed low RPM. The tune turned the streetfighter into a Pro MMA fighter, smooth and consistent and really punches hard when you crack the throttle. When playing in the twisties, power delivery is so much more consistent and stable, at a 7/10 pace (remember this is on the street) the bike was so much faster through the entrance, apex and exit, due to the new fuel management characteristics it is really is confidence inspiring. This is because of the consistent and stable power delivery. My 2020 Streetfighter V4 is more fun to ride now than my bone stock 2023 Panagali V4. If you are looking for a bang for your buck performance mod, THIS IS IT.

While currently working at a Ducati dealership, I have heard from plenty of customers, and even myself question, "Yes, its fast. But how can I make it faster?" Because of my training with Ducati Performance accessories, the first and only thing I would say is "Get the Akro pipe and do the Performance flash. Solves your issues." While that may be the case for the normies and casuals that cant even ride their bike to the full potential, my real customers and myself included, want to turn our V4 platforms into track maniacs, street rippers, and to experience these motors in the most visceral way possible. Well that brings me to the review part of this. How would you like to keep the ease of riding such a powerful motorcycle, but add so much BHP that even experienced riders need to be careful with the throttle. Quick and snappy DQS, revised per-cylinder mapping, AND IT DOESNT DIE WHEN I AM GOING LESS THAN 20 MPH! So smooth, and I cannot stress this enough, VIOLENT acceleration. Its not just a tune that make the pipe run a little more rich or lean, it is re-teaching your Ducati how to produce as much power as humanly possible. And for the streetfighters, you will notice the biggest improvement. The Akro flash from Ducati does NOT remove the torque limiters in 1st-4th gear. This BT stage 2 does. It's immaculate. Its peaceful and easy when I want the bike to be calm in rough downtown conditions, but full throttle, especially in 1st-3rd, I am still getting used to the raw strength of acceleration. Power is extremely predictable, and dare I say more confidence inspiring on the circuit. The wheel just wont stay down, and my traction control screams at me. Its so fun. So much fun. If you just want what is the best, most power, most comfortable, easiest to use, and most importantly the most customizable flash that still allows you to use the rider modes on the bike, you need the BT Flash. Get stage 1 if you don't have an exhaust yet, but if you do (I really like the Arrow titanium system. Again, I work for Ducati who makes the Akro, but this arrow is outstanding), then purchase the stage 2 and go have fun. Nothing will be able to touch you. (unless there is another guy out there with a BT Flash haha!) They do say the best results happen with the Akro exhaust, but I couldn't run away from the sound of the arrow. And the price. ONLY DOWNSIDE. I noticed with my specific tune, and it could be because of my elevation (roughly 5000-5800 Ft) I have an inconsistent Idle in cold tune and hot tune. I would like to think there is a solution, but it doesn't get in the way of the ride whatsoever. Just irks me a little.

BrenTunning is by far one of the best motorcycle tuning expert in the USA, nay the world. I had to get a ECU flash on my Ducati Panigale V4R after I installed the Akrapovic full racing system exhaust. I wasn't able to get the factory ducati upmap, but brentuning provided me with an alternative solution. Very positive experience dealing with the sales team at BT Moto and very professional as well. Response time were very fast and they were very patient in assisting me through the tuning process. I would give them a 6 stars if I could and I highly recommend Brentuning to all motorcycle enthusiast looking to get a aftermarket ECU tune that is just as good as factory, nay better. ；）
