2. Ducati Superleggera V4

The second-place bike on this ranking of the fastest motorcycles in the world is the Ducati Superleggera V4. The whole load-bearing chassis of the Superleggera V4 is composed entirely of carbon fibre, making it the only street-legal motorcycle. It is a work of art. Currently the most sophisticated litre-class supersport bike available, it is fully equipped with top-notch machinery.

Alvaro Bautista was ultimately able to win the world superbike championship this year thanks to the extraordinary V4 superbike from Ducati, which initially debuted in 2019. Since then, it has undergone various upgrades. The V4's monster power-up from the S's 214 and, in racing form, now a full 237bhp-its ultra-lightweight monocoque chassis, the best cycle components, industry-leading "aero" aids, lashings of exotic Italian flair as well as poster appeal, and now boasting £38K+ price to match.

A liquid-cooled, 998cc, V4 cylinder, DOHC, 16 valve engine powers the Ducati Superleggera V4. With a full race exhaust system, it generates a maximum of 234 HP and a maximum torque of 119 Nm. It boasts a maximum speed of more than over 300 km/h and a power-to-weight ratio of 1.30 hp/kg.

According to Ducati, the Superleggera V4 has the greatest ratio of power to weight of any motorcycle that is authorized for public roads. The Ducati Superleggera V4, the epitome of track motorcycles, is the fastest street-legal motorbike in the world. Exclusive is one thing, but the Ducati 1299 Superleggera exclusive is another. There will only be 500 units produced in all, and although they may technically be deployed on the streets as well, they are intended for racetracks. The Superleggera is the debut of a brand-new generation of extreme hyper-sport bikes that have discarded every scrap of carbon fibre in their effort to reduce curb weight by a few grammes.
