The two bikes are close enough that posture preference matters more than the overall score.

Rider fit: reaching the ground

The Ducati Panigale V2 has a 840 mm seat; the MV Agusta Superveloce 1000 Ago sits at 845 mm — a 5 mm difference. As a rule of thumb you flat-foot a bike when your inseam roughly matches its seat height: about 84 cm for the Ducati Panigale V2 and 85 cm for the MV Agusta Superveloce 1000 Ago.

That makes the Ducati Panigale V2 the easier reach to the ground — the safer pick for shorter riders or anyone who wants both feet planted at a stop — while the MV Agusta Superveloce 1000 Ago gives taller riders more legroom and a more open knee bend. Load your own height and inseam into the simulator to see exactly how each one fits you.
