DescriptionThe whole story▼
Upgrading the rear end of your Ducati Panigale V4, V4 S or V4 R does not have to mean a weekend in the garage or a compromise on everyday practicality. The LighTech CARD0890 carbon tail fairing drops straight onto 2018–2024 Panigale V4 models with no additional modifications, delivering a genuine weight saving, a cleaner rear silhouette and meaningful protection for the bodywork underneath — all from a single bolt-on part that earns its money every time you take the bike out.
Key Features
- Genuine autoclave-cured carbon fibre construction — the same production process used in motorsport — ensures consistent resin distribution, maximum rigidity and an exceptionally low weight-to-strength ratio.
- Available in two finishes: gloss (CARD0890) for a high-impact racing aesthetic, or matte (CARD0890M) for a subtler, track-day-ready look — choose once and it stays looking right.
- Precision-fit design means installation is straightforward and quick, with no cutting, drilling or re-wiring required.
- Replaces and protects the rear section of the fairing against stone chips, scrapes and general road wear, keeping the bike looking its best for longer.
- Lightweight carbon construction contributes to a modest but real reduction in unsprung and bodywork mass compared to the standard plastic unit.
Build Quality and Finish
LighTech manufactures the CARD0890 using an autoclave process, where heat and pressure cure the carbon layers under controlled conditions. The result is a component free from voids and delamination risk, with a surface finish that is consistent from edge to edge. The gloss variant carries a deep, clear lacquer that makes the weave pattern pop in sunlight, while the matte version has an understated, even surface that hides fingerprints and light road film better in day-to-day use. Both finishes are durable enough for road riding and occasional track sessions alike.
Everyday Usability
This tail fairing is designed for riders who want a meaningful visual and functional upgrade without the hassle. Because it is a direct replacement for the OEM part, it fits within the existing bodywork ecosystem of the Panigale V4 — no trimming, no bespoke brackets and no specialist tools. To maintain the surface over time, clean with pH-neutral products only; avoid solvent-based cleaners that can attack the lacquer or dull the matte finish.

- Ducati Panigale V4 (2018–2024)
