Pikes Peak livery

The wheels rims are made of forged aluminum, allowing considerable weight savings on unsprung masses and ensuring a considerable speed of execution and an improvement in the bike's dynamic behaviour. The V4 Pikes Peak forged rim weight reduction versus Multistrada V4/V4S cast rims is 5.9 lb, that contribute to the total vehicle lightening of around 8.8 lb.

The new Pirelli Diablo Rosso IV Tires (120/70-17 front 190/55-17 rear) support the sportiness of the Multistrada V4 Pikes Peak and confirms its pure-performance-oriented character.

The rake of the Multistrada V4 Pikes Peak is 25.75° (+ 1.25° vs Multistrada V4). Trail is now 4.7 inches (+0.019 inches vs Multistrada V4) and wheelbase geometry is 0.0627 inces (+0.0011 inches vs Multistrada V4). These new figures give the Multistrada V4 Pikes Peak the riding characteristics typical of sporty bikes, without compromising comfort in every situation.

The braking system of the new V4 Pikes Peak is at the top of the segment and derives directly from that of the Panigale V4. At the front, the system includes 13 inch diameter discs and Brembo Stylema monobloc calipers, like the Multistrada V4 S, to which are added the pads of the Panigale V4. At the rear, the system features a single 10.4 inch diameter disc with a Brembo floating caliper.

The footpegs are higher (+ 0.39 inch) and moved backward (+ 0.39 inch) in order to allow a more aggressive and effective riding position.

The handlebar is lower, narrower and has contained curved bars. This guarantees to the rider a better feeling in sporty riding while maintaining an excellent level of comfort.

In line with the Pikes Peak’s tradition, the new Multistrada also adopts a lowered windshield that enhances its sportiness without sacrificing the protection of the rider and passenger alike who, as on any self-respecting sport touring, can tackle even longer journeys.

The Centro Stile Ducati focused its attention to perfectly combine shape and function, with the ultimate goal of providing the rider with ideal ergonomics and thus enhancing the performance attitude of the Multistrada V4 Pikes Peak.

The technical and functional elements are thus transformed into design elements. From radars to aerodynamic appendages; from windshield to the dashboard; from the handlebar controls to the compartment on the fuel tank, everything has been perfectly integrated into the design of the bike.

The racing mood of the bike is intensified by the dedicated “Pikes Peak” livery, faithfully inspired both in colors and graphics by that of the Desmosedici GP ’21; even the number plates on both sides of the fuel tank contribute to highlight the deep link with the world of competition.

With the aim to further underline its sporty-oriented attitude the new Multistrada V4 Pikes Peak comes with carbon fiber beak and front mudguard.
