Intuitive agility meets solid stability

Target: total comfort.

The new Multistrada V4 MY2025 redefines rider and passenger comfort with a modification to the top and side cases that results in a roomier and more comfortable ride. 

The top case is more stable and robust thanks to a new aluminium plate.

In addition, a range of seats in different heights and the suspension lowering kit means that the bike can be customised for the ideal two-up configuration. Every detail is designed to guarantee a comfortable, no-compromise journey.

Aluminium double-sided swingarm
For stable sports riding even at full load, the new aluminium double-sided swingarm is mounted on a pivot that is positioned 1 millimetre higher. This boosts the anti-squat effect, helping to hold the line.
Choice of three wheels
The 19'' front and 17'' rear rims can be of 3 types: cast, spoked and for the first time forged with a weight reduction of 2 kg compared to cast. The lower rotating inertia of the rims, generates a reduction in the gyroscopic effect, thus increasing handling by facilitating changes of direction.

Suspension that evolves in real time.

The semi-active suspension on the Multistrada V4 S adapts to the road conditions and vehicle load using advanced sensors and an electronic control system. A new sensor on the fork allows for more precise control strategies and more efficient riding, while Bump Detection prepares the response of the mono shock, transmitting information coming from the fork.

Ducati Skyhook Suspension Evolution

The Ducati Skyhook Suspension Evolution (DSS EVO) represents the latest evolution in Ducati's semi-active suspension. Thanks to an integrated sensor mounted on the fork that provides real-time data, it is possible to have even more precise strategies, such as anti-dive and anti-squat, to improve riding dynamics in all conditions. Thanks to the DSS EVO, it is possible to have the best suspension setting for each type of use by varying their behavior thanks to the suspension modes that can be selected while riding.

Available in S version.

Automatic Lowering Device

System that automatically adjusts the preload of the monoshock to change the height of the bike. At low speeds (ed. below 10 km/h) the preload is instantly raised to the minimum to make it easier for the rider to touch the ground. When speed increases (ed. above 50 km/h) the preload is returned to the preset value, returning the bike to the optimum set-up for the riding dynamics. The function can be disabled by the user.

Suspension Modes independent of Riding Modes

  

The new Suspension Modes can be adjusted while riding via a dedicated button, independently of the selected Riding Mode. This function allows the rider to customise suspension behaviour based on the riding conditions and personal preference, for greater flexibility and control while riding. With this option, the bike setting can be rapidly adapted to ensure the ideal response in every situation.

New rear shock

The rear shock on the new Multistrada V4 MY2025 has been optimized with an 8 mm increase in preload, extending the adjustment range from 12 to 20 mm. This improvement allows for more balanced calibration under different load conditions, optimising the suspension response both with a passenger and luggage and in normal riding conditions. This increase in preload significantly improves stability and precision, while heightening the effect of the Automatic Lowering Device in the S version for a comfortable and safe ride, even at full load.

New Bump Detection suspension feature

Part of the Ducati Skyhook Suspension Evolution, the Bump Detection system automatically identifies speed bumps and potholes using fork-mounted sensors. When the front suspension system detects a roughness in the terrain, it immediately adjusts the rear to absorb the impacts. This improves rider and passenger comfort, promoting a smooth ride even over rough terrain.

Nothing but the pleasure of the ride.

The Multistrada V4 is designed to maximise riding comfort. The aerodynamics, engine delivery and frame optimisation combine to ensure outstanding behaviour in terms of NVH (Noise, Vibration and Harshness).
Improved sound quality

The exhaust has been refined by careful sound quality work, with an upgrade to meet Euro 5+ regulations*.

The new exhaust has been redesigned to create a sound that combines the sportiness of Ducati's DNA and the acoustic comfort derived from lowering the frequencies that could be fatiguing on long rides.

*only in countries where Euro 5 regulation applies.

New rear braking system

The rear brake disc increases from 265 to 280 compared to the previous generation. The regressive rear lever has a new foot pedal that provides more grip and generates a better feeling of efficiency: greater braking force and increased modulability.

Braking is improved not only mechanically, but also electronically: the Front to Rear system already present among Ducati features, evolves by distributing braking according to the load on the bike.

Also introduced is the new Rear to Front system in the S version: in particular situations of lean angle and Riding Mode, when braking at the rear, the system will also intervene on the front brake.

Reduced vibration for less tiring travel

All frame elements and engine components are optimised to reduce vibration and afford rider and passenger the most comfortable ride possible.

Climbing aboard the Multistrada V4 means being enveloped by a “bubble of comfort”, inside which you can ride without background noise even at high speeds. Minimal vibration reduces riding stress, particularly over long distances, as does reduced engine gear noise.

Ergonomics for comfort

The seat, seat shape, and legroom are designed to make any rider comfortable while improving the passenger experience. Both the rider and passenger seat are adjustable according to two positions. No two motorcyclists are the same, which is why it is important to ensure every Multistrada rider is at ease on any type of road.

Riding position

Both the rider and passenger seats are quickly adjustable to two positions, and thanks to the optional rider saddles, the height range is from 810mm to 890mm (with no active automatic lowering device nor suspension lowering kit) to ensure an excellent ergonomic saddle-handlebar-pedals triangle for people of all statures. 

The saddles are seamless to minimize high-pressure areas, contributing to less fatigue especially on long rides.
