Designed especially for this edition, the Grand Tour livery showcases the lines of the Multistrada V4 with a combination of details and finishes that strengthen its touring identity.

Seamlessly integrated into the bike’s proportions and complementing its livery, the side cases are designed to be spacious and secure both when mounted on the bike and when removed as luggage. The cases are anchored to the bike via a sophisticated tilting system, ensuring complete stability even at motorway speeds.

Rounding out the equipment are front and rear LED fog lights, to heighten visibility in more challenging riding conditions.

Thanks to extended rear bank deactivation, the V4 Granturismo engine automatically switches off the two rear cylinders when power demand is reduced. A solution that contributes to lowering consumption when travelling at constant speed, while always ensuring the performance and smoothness for which the Ducati four-cylinder stands out. A tangible advantage for those who love to travel long distance, with greater efficiency and less fuel stops.

The V4 Granturismo is an engine designed to carry you far. All V4 Granturismo components are conceived to guarantee the utmost reliability. This allows for longer service intervals, like the valve clearance check at 60,000km, a benchmark well above the segment average.

Ducati Quick Shift allows for upshifting without using the clutch, for smoother, more precise gear shifting. A system that comes into its own on long trips and on winding routes, improving comfort and continuity so that the rider can focus solely on the road.

For stable riding even at full load, the aluminum double-sided swingarm’s pivot position helps reduce rear-end squad in acceleration, improving bike balance and riding precision out of the turn. This is particularly valuable on trips with a passenger and luggage, where stability and control become even more important.

The Multistrada V4 S Grand Tour adopts a 280 mm rear disc and progressive rear brake lever with optimized pedal, designed to improve control grip, sensitivity and modulation. This makes for braking that is more efficient, progressive and easily controlled in all conditions of use.

Mechanical performance is combined with advanced electronics that support the rider in different riding situations. The Front to Rear function optimizes the distribution of braking force between the front and rear wheels based on the bike’s load, helping to maintain stability and balance even with a passenger and luggage.

The Rear to Front function intervenes in specific lean conditions and depending on the chosen Riding Mode, automatically applying a degree of braking force at the front when the rear brake is activated. A system developed to heighten precision, stability and control, particularly when touring. (Only with ABS set at level 3)

The Multistrada V4 S Grand Tour promises exceptional comfort, even during the longest days on the road. The seat shape and profile and the available leg space are designed to ensure a natural, relaxed position, to the benefit of both rider and passenger.

To adapt to different ergonomic needs, the rider seat and passenger seat can be adjusted according to two positions. A solution that helps improve travel comfort and make every route more enjoyable, from everyday rides to long-range adventures on the road.

Designed to take on long distances naturally, the Multistrada V4 S Grand Tour flaunts ergonomics that can be adapted to suit riders of different builds. The rider seat and passenger seat can be adjusted according to two positions, and optional seats mean that the seat height can be adjusted between 810 mm and 890 mm, without the Automatic Lowering Device or suspension lowering kit. Flexibility that lets the rider choose the configuration best suited to their riding and travel needs.

The lack of seams in the main contact areas heightens comfort over long distance, reducing pressure points and ensuring every travel day is an enjoyable experience.

The Multistrada V4 S was the world’s first bike to integrate both front and rear radar, activating advanced rider assistance systems such as Adaptive Cruise Control, Forward Collision Warning and Blind Spot Detection. Adaptive Cruise Control automatically maintains a safe distance from the vehicle in front, while Forward Collision Warning warns the rider in case of sudden approach. Blind Spot Detection further heightens safety by identifying vehicles coming from behind.

Offering a wide range of configuration options, the exclusive Ducati Skyhook semi-active suspension system allows for significant customization of the riding experience based on route and riding style. The key advantage of electronic suspension is its ability to significantly alter bike behaviour in a matter of seconds, allowing the rider to tailor the setup to every type of riding. In addition, the new Bump Detection system automatically identifies any rough terrain, transmitting the information to the rear and instantly adjusting the rear shock response.

The Electronic Combined Braking System automatically manages the distribution of braking force between the front and rear wheels to optimize braking efficiency, stability and control.

The system integrates Front to Rear and Rear to Front logic, adjusting intervention based on the riding conditions, load, and selected Riding Mode, to offer a predictable and safe response in every situation.

Greater safety when maneuvring 

The Automatic Lowering Device automatically reduces bike height at low speeds and when stationary, making it easier for a rider’s feet to reach the ground.

As the speed increases, the system automatically restores the ideal setup to ensure stability and comfort while riding. A particularly useful function when travelling with a passenger and luggage.

The Easy Lift function adjusts the suspension hydraulics to reduce the effort required when handling the bike or lifting it off the stand. 

A practical aid that facilitates usage day to day and during travel breaks.
