Ducati Multistrada V4

Mechanical Heart: The V4 Granturismo

Tucked into the Multistrada V4’s core sits Ducati’s Granturismo V4 de 1.158 cc-a 90-degree V4 carrying a counter-rotating crankshaft, twin-pulse firing order, y semi-dry sump lubrication. It churns out 170 hp (125 kW) at 10,750 rpm beside 124 Nm (91 lb-ft) of torque at 9,000 rpm. Power comes on clean and predictable across low revs. That makes urban gridlock surprisingly calm, yet plenty of raw punch remains waiting whenever asphalt stretches clear.

Ducati engineered this powerplant specifically for long-term ownership. Extended cylinder deactivation cuts the rear bank when idling or creeping through city blocks to reduce fuel consumption and heat. Service spans are wide: valve clearance check interval is an exceptional 60,000 km (37,000 miles), respaldado por oil changes every 15,000 km (9,000 miles). It’s built to gobble up continent-crossing distance without constant workshop visits.

Chassis and Suspension: Mechanical Precision

The base Multistrada V4 uses an estructura monocasco de aluminio anchor that treats the engine as a load-bearing element. Road feel stays direct and planted whether leaning through mountain asphalt or tracking down unpaved dirt trails.

While the electronic semi-active setup goes exclusively to the V4 S, this base version relies on hardware: a fully adjustable Ø 50 mm Marzocchi upside-down fork matched to a fully adjustable Sachs monoshock with remote spring preload adjustment. Pure conventional, manually adjustable suspension—direct, tough, and more than ready to deliver a plush, controlled ride through beaten backroads or smooth highways. Down low, an automatic lowering device drops chassis height between 6 mph and 30 mph, taking the stretch out of traffic stops.

Factory builds run 19-inch front and 17-inch rear wheels crafted from light alloy cast, wrapped in Pirelli Scorpion Trail II tyres. Buyers can opt for Spoked wheels, while ruedas forjadas (which trim 2 kg weight reduction for quicker turn-in) feature on higher specs and later years.

Electronics and Rider Aids: The Essential Suite

Even without extra option packs, this standard bike carries serious technology. A internal six-axis IMU constantly feeds data to cornering safety systems:

Keep in mind, the standard V4 skips the 6.5-inch TFT with Ducati Connect and full-map navigation found on the S model. It also leaves out radar-based Adaptive Cruise Control and Blind Spot Detection as base equipment—though you can select them from option lists or higher trim tiers.

Colors and Trim Packages (2021–2026)

Ducati offered several finish choices through the V4 run. Classic Ducati Red remains the primary option you’ll spot on roads. Aviator Grey offers a sleeker look, paired against alloy, spoked, or forged wheels.

Ducati Factory Made (DFM) unlocks further customization. You get vintage-inspired Icone tones alongside glossy Estilo schemes like Blu Uranus. Still, standard-trim buyers mostly choose between Ducati Red or Aviator Grey before picking their preferred wheel set.

New vs. Used: Buying the Multistrada V4

Nuevos ejemplos (2025-2026): Fresh showroom models include MY2025 updates. That means extended cylinder deactivation (cutting fuel burn up to 6%), an optimised rear shock with 8 mm more preload adjustment, a redesigned exhaust built for Euro 5+ rules, and updated TFT graphics. Buying new gets you Ducati’s Garantía de 4 años sin límite de kilometraje along with custom factory ordering.

Used (2021–2024 examples): Pre-owned inventory saves serious money. Early 2021 V4 S models start near $13,495 for clean, low-mileage bikes, while typical market listings hover around $16,603. Across Europe, 2021–2022 V4 S units list between €13,999 to €19,990 based on overall wear. Well-traveled bikes (40,000–70,000 km) sit lower, around €12,490 to €14,700.

Used (2025–2026 examples): Nearly new examples crop up occasionally with factory coverage still active. They give buyers a chance to bypass full retail pricing on current-year stock.
