Ducati has just raised the stakes in the world of luxury touring motorcycles with the introduction of its all-new Multistrada V4 RS. Developed and engineered in Bologna, this addition to Ducati’s lineup is a special edition with features that will leave both bike enthusiasts and casual observers turning their heads. The Multistrada V4 RS is engineered with the Desmosedici Stradale engine derived from the renowned Panigale V4. The powerplant delivers a maximum output of 180 horsepower at 13,500 rpm. This engine offers a unique auditory experience thanks to its dry clutch and Akrapovič silencer. To ensure dynamic handling, Ducati has equipped the Multistrada with Öhlins suspension, a single-sided aluminum swingarm, and lightweight forged rims.
Tech-savvy riders are in for a treat because the Multistrada V4 RS is equipped with an extensive electronic package that includes radar technology for Adaptive Cruise Control and Blind Spot Detection. It also offers four power modes and an array of advanced riding assist systems like Ducati Traction Control and Ducati Quick Shift. Sporty aesthetics haven’t been compromised, either. The Multistrada V4 RS boasts various carbon fiber components and a titanium subframe, ensuring a weight saving of 5.5 lbs compared to the standard model. The Iceberg White livery adds an extra touch of refinement. The unique and sport-focused design is also expressed through a slim and streamlined tail, specially crafted for this edition.
The Multistrada V4 RS’ engine delivers a maximum output of 180 horsepower at 13,500 rpm. This level of performance is perfectly balanced with usability, thanks to thoughtful engineering. For example, Ducati has thoughtfully designed the engine to deactivate the rear cylinder bank when the bike is stationary to improve thermal comfort. Aiming for February 2024 deliveries, the Multistrada V4 RS will be available at authorized Ducati dealerships starting MSRP of $37,995. Those interested in customizing their ride further can opt for a range of accessories from the Ducati Performance catalog, making the Multistrada V4 RS a versatile choice for those who demand the very best. With a limited production run, this motorcycle is bound to become an iconic model for the Ducati brand. View all Ducati motorcycles currently for sale on duPont REGISTRY by clicking the link below.
