Even with little changes the V4 comes equipped with a twin-pod headlight, a semi-fairing, an adjustable windscreen, a 22-liter fuel tank, split-style seats, a side-slung exhaust, and a double-sided swingarm. Unlike the old model, the new variants ride on 19-inch front/17-inch rear wheels. The electronic aids, which work with the inertial platform (IMU), include ABS Cornering, Ducati Wheelie Control (DWC), and Ducati Traction Control (DTC). The S variant further benefits from Cornering Lights (DCL), Vehicle Hold Control (VHC), and the electronically adjustable, semi-active Ducati Skyhook Suspension (DSS) control system with an Autoleveling function.
The Multistrada V4 will get a new semi-automatic electronic suspension and also comes with the ‘Minimum Preload’ feature which lets the rider reduce the height of the bike. Additionally, it also includes software updates for the ‘Ducati Connect interface and also the Human Machine interface. Existing owners of the Ducati Multistrada V4 can also choose to opt for the 2022 updates if they want. Owners of the bike who are eligible will be contacted via the MyDucatti app and via e-mail after which they can get their bikes updated at the nearest service center.
