More grip, more direct feel & consistent performance for the Ducati Panigale V4/S/R (25–26)

Forsaken Motorsport’s latest linear linkage has been developed specifically for the Ducati Panigale V4/S/R models from 2025 onward.
It is based on extensive chassis analyses using the MotoSpec software and has been engineered to achieve a significantly more linear, more predictable suspension behavior.

The result:
more traction, better control at corner exit, and a ride feel that particularly excites riders with high sporting ambitions.

CNC-machined in Canada – precision for the highest loads

Each linkage is precisely CNC-milled from high-grade aluminum.
Forsaken Motorsport uses the latest manufacturing technology to ensure maximum dimensional stability, long service life, and repeatable accuracy.

Design advantages:

• extremely robust build
• minimized deflection under load
• consistent damping behavior
• designed for sport and racing-oriented riders

Linear progression – noticeably more traction & stability

With a linear linkage, the lever ratio (ratio) always remains the same. A more even constant Geometry-change ensures the rear wheel works more controllably on the asphalt.

You benefit from:

• more grip and more predictable behavior when leaned over
• more stable corner exit
• improved power transfer
• higher predictability during fast load changes
• The motorcycle responds more controllably, more calmly, and more clearly to rider inputs.

Adjustable ride-height rod included

New for the 2025 version:

• Ride-Height-Rod with high-quality Uniball joints is included in the package
• enables individual adjustment of the "ride height" (vehicle height)
• perfect for trackdays, different tires, or rider preferences
• Uniball can handle higher forces, with little risk of pitting; with small movements that commonly occur in a linkage.
  

With this, you can fine-tune Geometry and the center of gravity.

Grade5 titanium screws already included

The kit includes high-quality titanium mounting hardware:

• lower weight
• high tensile strength
• corrosion-resistant
• ideal complement for demanding performance setups
• rolled threads

Compatible with the OEM spring?! – optionally adjustable!

In most cases, the original spring can continue to be used.
However, it should be individually tuned to the rider–vehicle weight, which also applies to the shimstack.

• Because damping via the shimstack and the needle has to work harder since no rising leverage ratio helps, the shock unit should be reworked by a specialist workshop.
  
  
• Spring rate should be adjusted according to rider weight.
