The sporty attitude is enhanced by a racing strategy for the rev limiter and the quickshifter that allows faster gear shiftings and extremely aggressive downshifts, as well as the implementation of an even more direct throttle response in High Power Mode.

17" FRONT WHEEL WITH FORGES RIMS & DEDICATED ERGONOMICS

The 17" front wheel combined with the adoption of lightened Marchesini aluminium forged rims results in absolute precision between curves and a high speed when reaching the apex. A revised strategy also in the main dimensions and ergonomic elements such as the footpegs and handlebar, to give the rider a more sporty feeling and is dedicated to dynamic riding on asphalt.

SINGLE-SIDED SWINGARM & "PIKES PEAK" LIVERY

The stylistic elements typical of the Pikes Peak version such as the 17" front wheel and the single-sided swingarm are enhanced by the functional elements of the new Multistrada generation. A look that reaches the pinnacle of sportiness thanks to the new livery with number plates on both sides inspired by the graphics of the Desmosedici GP …21. The passenger seat is two-tone with the "V4" logo visible from above.

’?HLINS SMART EC 2.0 SUSPENSION

The V4 Pikes Peak is the first Multistrada ever to be equipped with electronic Smart EC 2.0 ’?hlins suspension. The Smart EC 2.0 system is the same adopted by both Panigale V4 S and Streetfighter V4 S. It is a particularly advanced system that allows an event based adjustment, according to the rider's riding style. This technology borrowed from Ducati supersport bikes is combined for the first time with Riding Mode Race, which acts on the electronic controls to express the bike's racing potential to the full.

CHASSIS

17" MARCHESINI FORGES ALUMINIUM RIMS

The wheels rims are made of forged aluminium, 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 2.7 kg, that contribute to the total vehicle lightening of around 4 kg.

PIRELLI DIABLO ROSSO IV TYRES

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

CHASSIS DIMENSIONS

The rake of the Multistrada V4 Pikes Peak is 25.75° (+ 1.25° vs Multistrada V4). Trail is now 120 mm (+0.5 mm vs Multistrada V4) and wheelbase geometry is 1,595 mm (+0,028 mm 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.

CLASS-LEADING BRAKING SYSTEM

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 330 mm 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 265 mm diameter disc with a Brembo floating caliper.

PERFORMANCE-ORIENTED ELECTRONICS

The new electronics are inspired from supersport riding. These include the adoption of Riding Mode Race capable of acting on the main electronic systems to deliver maximum performance. These are easily controlled via backlit handlebar controls with joystick and the 6.5-inch TFT dashboard with optical bonding technology for optimum viewing both day and night.

The Multistrada V4 Pikes Peak also inherits the advanced and sophisticated electronics package of the Multistrada V4 S, which includes, among others, radar technology at both front and rear, enabling Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC) and Blind Spot Detection (BSD).

RACE RIDING MODE

The Multistrada Pikes Peak in race riding mode offers the maximum engine and chassis performance, allowing riders to fully enjoy the 170 HP of the V4 Granturismo engine and the excellence of the ’?hlins Smart EC 2.0 suspension. The system exploits an even more direct throttle response in High Power Mode. Ducati Traction Control and Ducati Wheelie Control operations are reduced to a minimum and the cornering ABS is set to level 2, also allowing controlled lifting of the rear wheel and therefore getting the most out of the braking phase, even on the racetrack. The Race Riding Mode is undoubtedly the ideal choice for experienced riders who wish to exploit all the exclusive performance the Multistrada V4 Pikes Peak can offer, also on track.

SPORT RIDING MODE

The best on road performing Sport Riding Mode provides a thrilling 170 HP together with a sporty suspension set-up. Sport Mode is also characterised by low levels of Ducati Traction Control and Ducati Wheelie Control compared to the Race RM. Furthermore, the ABS is set to level 2, allowing the ABS is set to level 2 allowing controlled lifting of the rear wheel in order to maximize braking performance.

TOURING RIDING MODE

The best on road performing Sport Riding Mode provides a thrilling 170 HP together with a sporty suspension set-up. Sport Mode is also characterised by low levels of Ducati Traction Control and Ducati Wheelie Control compared to the Race RM. Furthermore, the ABS is set to level 2, allowing the ABS is set to level 2 allowing controlled lifting of the rear wheel in order to maximize braking performance.

URBAN RIDING MODE

In Urban Riding Mode power output is reduced to a maximum of 115 HP, and suspension is set for optimum agility in case of frequent urban obstacles with corresponding DSS mapping. DTC and DWC are set to high levels for maximum security. ABS is set to level 3.

CORNERING ABS

The Multistrada V4 Pikes Peak exploits the Bosch 10.3ME Cornering ABS with corners function, properly calibrated to enhance the sporty features of the bike.

Adjustable on 3 levels each of which is combined as standard with the different Riding Modes, and is a significant element of the Ducati Safety Pack. Thanks to its ABS control processor, the Multistrada Pikes Peak makes use of a combined braking system (Electronic Combined Braking System) that is optimised at level 3 for the Urban and Touring RM.

In Sport and Race modes the ABS is set to level 2. The rider can still further raise the level of sportiness by activating level 1 from the menu, in this case the ABS function (non cornering) is active only on the front axle, and deactivated on the rear wheel, allowing the rear to drift under braking in sportier driving. The V4 Pikes Peak ABS level 1 is mainly oriented to road or racetrack performance while Multistrada V4/V4S ABS level 1 is for off-road application.

DUCATI WHEELIE CONTROL (DWC)

Ducati Wheelie Control has been developed and set to the sporty characteristics of the Multistrada V4 Pikes Peak, to be even more accurate during impulsive manoeuvres common in sporty riding. This system, integrated smoothly with the Ducati Riding Modes, offers 8 setting levels. It analyses the attitude of the bike; it detects any front wheel lift and controls torque and power to maximise acceleration in safety.

DUCATI TRACTION CONTROL (DTC)

A key element of the Ducati Safety Pack, DTC equipping the new Multistrada V4 Pikes Peak is a system constantly updated and now integrates data coming from the IMU platform, to efficiently keep under control grip losses and the lean angle. In just a few thousandths of a second with data coming from the sensors, DTC can detect and control rear wheelspin, boosting performance and active safety significantly. The system allows the user to choose between eight different levels. Each one has been programmed to provide a rear wheelspin tolerance that matches progressive levels of riding ability (classified from 1 to 8).

VEHICLE HOLD CONTROL (VHC)

The latest generation Vehicle Hold Control (VHC) system provides riders with easier restarts, even in critical situations like on a gradient; this is because it modulates brake pressure during starts, leaving the user free to focus on throttle and clutch control.

ADAPTIVE CRUISE CONTROL

Front radar, perfectly integrated into the Multistrada Pikes Peak, controls the operation of the Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC), which by means of controlled braking and acceleration automatically adjusts the distance (selectable on four levels) from other vehicles when riding at a speed between 30 and 160 km/h. This car-derived system has been evolved and developed according to the dynamics and ergonomics of a two-wheeled vehicle. In particular, the authority of the system in terms of deceleration and acceleration has been limited to ensure the rider can maintain constant control of the vehicle in any situation. The ACC can be inserted and adjusted using the dedicated buttons located on the left block. Thanks to the DQS Up & Down, the rider can shift up or down without the ACC deactivating during the acceleration and deceleration phases. ACC system allows for more comfortable riding, especially on long motorway journeys.

BLIND SPOT DETECTION

Rear radar technology, housed under the headlight, can detect and report vehicles approaching in the so-called blind spot, namely the area not visible either directly by the rider or through the rear-view mirror. The BSD (Blind Spot Detection) system monitors this situation thanks to the LEDs positioned on the rear-view mirrors. The BSD system also signals the approaching from behind of vehicles at high speed. In both cases, if the user activates the direction indicator expressing the intention to change lane, the BSD flashes the LED signalling a potentially dangerous condition. Thanks to the dedicated menu, the user can adjust the brightness of the system on three different levels.

HANDS FREE IGNITION

The Multistrada V4 Pikes Peak uses a Hands-Free starting system that guarantees the best safety standards. Thanks to this system the rider can easily keep the key in his pocket and start the engine with the dedicated button positioned immediately behind the steering plate.

HEADLIGHT & INDICATORS

The Ducati Multistrada V4 Pikes Peak is equipped as standard with full LED lights and a front headlight with DRL and Cornering Lights. The rear light integrates the Ducati Brake Light function, which in the event of sudden braking automatically activates the flashing of the light in order to appropriately signal the condition of sudden slowdown. The direction indicators, also LED, turn off automatically after use thanks to the auto shut-off system.
