Ducati’s Premium Sports Tourer: The Multistrada V4 S Sport
Contents
The Multistrada V4 S Sport is a sophisticated sport touring motorcycle from Italian manufacturer, Ducati. It’s the top of the range Multistrada model in the 2021 Ducati line-up, and one of the most exciting Ducati motorcycles of the year. Like the Multistrada V4 S is an evolution of the base model Multistrada V4, the Multistrada V4 S takes everything from the other models, but brings something extra to the table.
Technologically, the Multistrada V4 S is more-or-less the same as the S model. It features the same all-new 1,158cc Granturismo V4 engine that produces 170 horsepower and 92 lb-ft of peak torque, the same Ducati Skyhook Suspension Evolution system, and all of the same riding aids and electronics too.
The most significant differences between the Multistrada V4 S Sport and the Multistrada V4 S include the abundance of carbon fiber parts, notably the mudguard, and the addition of a very high-tech exhaust system. It’s an Akrapovic unit made from carbon fiber and titanium. Arguably, the most obvious difference is the different livery and color options.
For 2021, the Multistrada V4 S Sport is available with a special sports livery that uses Ducati Red, with white and black accents. Unlike the S model, it’s only available with alloy rims.
The 2021 Ducati Multistrada V4 S Sport starts at $26,095 USD / $28,795 CAD.
