Six months after its introduction on the market, the Ducati Multistrada V4 family has reached the milestone of 5,000 models sold. Motorcycle number 5,000 was purchased by the German Ducatista Karl-Heinz Lebensieg, who ordered a V4 S Sport version in Full configuration from the Ducati dealer in Ingolstadt.

To celebrate this occasion, Mr. Lebensieg was invited from Ducati Motor Deutschland to the dealer in Ingolstadt, where he received a sculptural reproduction of the Multistrada V4 together with a personal letter certifying the motorcycle's serial number.

Presented to the world during the 2021 Ducati World Première, the Multistrada V4 is a motorcycle in which Ducati performance and sportiness are combined with unprecedented ride comfort and a versatility that allows it to be used on all roads and in all driving conditions. Equipped with the V4 Granturismo engine, the Multistrada V4 has record maintenance intervals (valve clearance check every 60,000 km), offers an integrated navigation system with dedicated maps that can be viewed directly on the large dashboard and is the first motorcycle in the world to be equipped with front and rear radar. 

To meet the different needs of its customers, Ducati has created different configurations for the models that make up the Multistrada V4 family. The online configurator, available on the Ducati.com website, allows you to explore these possibilities and customize the bike by choosing the accessory packages and aesthetic variations that best suit your needs, and then send the ideal model directly to your trusted dealer.

All the models of the Multistrada family can be ordered from dealers in the Ducati network. The standard version is available in the sporty Ducati Red colour, while the V4 S model is present, in addition to red, also in “Aviator Grey”, and can be requested with one of the configuration packages (Essential, Travel, Radar, Performance, Full), both with alloy wheels and with spoked wheels. The third version of the range is the Multistrada V4 S Sport, which offers a particularly aggressive dedicated livery and the standard Performance package with Akrapovic exhaust and carbon front mudguard.

The Panigale V4 S is the bike that embodies all the essence of Ducati sportiness. In the 2021 version, the Borgo Panigale super sports bike is even easier to ride and is designed to help the rider achieve top performance on the circuit, resulting in an improvement in lap times both for the professional and for the amateur. The Panigale V4 2021 is equipped with two Race Riding Modes, A and B, which can be customized by the user and is the only bike in the world equipped with ABS Cornering “Only Front” developed specifically for maximum performance on the track, as well as the lowest levels of electronics settings (DTC, DSC and DWC).

To make the Panigale V4 S even more unique and performing on track, Ducati offers its fans a series of accessories from the Ducati Performance catalogue. The accessories contained in the catalogue are designed by the Centro Stile Ducati and produced in collaboration with selected partners, with the aim of ensuring maximum performance and enhancing the typically racing look of the bike.

On 30 May, Barni Racing Team rider Luca Salvadori demonstrated the Panigale V4 S competitiveness, by participating and winning in the 1000 Open category of the second round of the MotoEstate 2021 Trophy, one of the most popular amateur trophies in Italy. On that occasion, the stock Panigale V4 S ridden by Salvadori, equipped with a full racing exhaust, Pirelli slick tyres and a series of accessories contained in the Ducati Performance catalogue, also took pole position, setting the Cremona Circuit lap record.

The accessories mounted on Salvadori's Panigale V4 during the race can be purchased from all dealers in the Ducati network. They include the Akrapovic complete titanium exhaust group, developed by Ducati Corse technicians on the basis of the exhaust mounted on the Panigale V4 R used in the Superbike World Championship by Scott Redding and Michael Rinaldi, the Rizoma adjustable aluminium footpegs, which allow riders to find the best possible position for their build and riding style and a racing seat in technical fabric, able to offer comfort and grip to maximize stability while riding. There are also a series of elements made of carbon, such as the front mudguard and swingarm cover, but also the number plate holder removal cover sets and mirror hole covers, ideal for occluding the holes made by the removal of unnecessary elements in track use.

These accessories are the same as the ones equipping the Panigale V4 S that Ducati Corse riders use to train between rounds of the MotoGP and Superbike World Championship.

On the Ducati.com website there is the “Configurator” section, a tool designed by the Borgo Panigale manufacturer to offer all Ducatisti the possibility of customizing their motorcycles, by selecting accessories and special parts, which also include magnesium rims and a dry clutch. 

The Monster has always been synonymous with customization for all enthusiasts who wish to make their bike unique in terms of aesthetics and tailored to their riding style. For this reason, even for the new generation of its sports naked, Ducati has created a series of accessories designed to enhance the technical characteristics and design of the bike.

The Ducati Performance catalogue has been enriched with a wide selection of accessories that make the new Monster even sportier, enhancing its look. The online configurator is available on the Ducati.com website, which allows you to view all the customization options, create the Monster of your dreams and share it in one click with the trusted dealer and with friends.

Expressing your personality through the aesthetics of the motorcycle is easy thanks to the decal sets and add-on kits with graphics proposed by Ducati, capable of enhancing the contemporary lines of the new Monster and accentuating its sportiness.

There are two customization sets with graphics available: the Pixel kit consists of tank cover, seat side panels, seat cover, headlight fairing and front mudguard and gives the Monster an even more aggressive and modern look, while the GP kit, consisting of tank cover and seat side panels, recalls the world of Ducati Corse with the choice of dynamic graphics. Both versions are available for all three colours of the Monster and Monster Plus: Ducati Red, Dark Stealth and Aviator Grey. These are accompanied by the two sticker kits, Corse and Logo, also available for all colours of the bike.

The customization level of each Monster can be further emphasized by choosing from the wide range of accessories in the Ducati Performance catalogue, made up of high quality components with a refined design.

Among these elements, the Euro 5 standard Termignoni homologated silencer stands out, enhancing the sporty look of the new Monster. Alternatively, the Termignoni racing exhaust is also available (for track use only and not approved for road use) with dedicated mapping.

The design of the new Monster can be completed with the light and functional engine belly fairing in the same colour as the bodywork, and with the racing license plate holder. In collaboration with Rizoma, Ducati also offers a series of accessories made from billet aluminium, such as handlebar balancing weights, footpegs, brake fluid and clutch fluid reservoirs. 

The new Monster and Ducati Performance accessories can be ordered from all Ducati network dealerships. The bike is also available in a depowered version for A2 license.
