EXCLUSIVE: 2024 Ducati Multistrada V4 RS Review

- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 29 ก.ย. 2024
- Motorcycle.com got the exclusive opportunity as one of only three journalists in the entire world to ride the new 2024 Ducati Multistrada V4 RS. The most track-focused Multistrada to date, the big talking point surrounding the RS is the return of desmo valves inside that booming V4 engine! Plus you get a dry clutch, too! Power is rated at 180 hp, and if you add the racing exhaust you get an additional 12 horses. Forged 17-inch Marchesini wheels, Öhlins electronic suspension, and all the electronics you expect from Ducati make this feel like a Panigale dressed in Multistrada clothes. Road Test Editor Troy Siahaan got to ride the bike at the tight and twisty Autodromo di Modena - here are his thoughts.

So sorry to hear about Evans. Didn't know him personally, but it was obvious from his work that he was a class act, a true professional, and a good human being. Condolences to family and friends. RIP
RIP Evans...you will be missed here. Thank you for all that you've contributed to the motorcycle world. My sincere condolences to your family and friends in this difficult time.
This multistrada seems like a sweet ride.
Why? For the track it’s still a compromise. Like beefing up an SUV when their are much more suitable bikes already in the stable. As a 50 year old ex Australian Superbike racer, who still occasionally competes with track specific bikes I also like the comfort and midrange torque the valve spring actuated multi strada provides. Plus the longer service intervals it provides too.
I'm 100% with you, I have a V4 pikes peak and don't really see a reason to upgrade to this one. Better off just buying a panigale for the track (the "2 bikes! that's too much money" argument doesn't really hold water when talking about a 40K dollar/euro bike)
@@bogian81 Well said. It can also be a cheaper alternative for track day enthusiasts to buy a used race bike that is a couple of seasons old. They will have had possibly 3 times the value of a brand new bike already spent on them with the engine and components being well maintained. Plus if you do end up finding your limits and go down they are also a lot cheaper to repair. Food for thought.
I am a lifetime rider and like anyone in our community, I also have memories of those who have lost their lives in motorcycle accidents. Ours is a dangerous hobby/pastime/sport. I did not know this person, but he reminds me of all those I have lost.
The Multistrada has always been a "if you can only have one" bike for me. But now that I am retired and cannot afford a motorcycle any longer, it will always be a dream. But phew, would I love to get on one and take one of those bucket list rides around the USA...or to Tierra del Fuego...or Africa...or....
RIP Evans
Oh my Gosh... My condolences to you and his Family.
What a shock, so sad to here about Evan. He was one of the one that I listened most to his feed back because I am older like him. Dang what a shock.😢
Oh shit so sorry to hear about Evans! He always brought a common sense view to all the reviews. RIP brother ☹️
Condolences to Evan’s family. RIP Evan.
RIP Evans great respect
Sorry for your lost, RIP Evans.
I don't see the point of this bike. I love me some Desmo valves, a dry clutch and tri color paint job (i own a Corse), but one of the big selling points of the V4 was the service intervals. For me, this bike doesn't suit either track duty or touring especially well, and for 40k I could get a Panigale V4 for the track AND a used multi v4 for the road😅
RIP to Evans🙏🏾
14:33 I embarrass lots of ppl on my V4S including the Peoria PD...
They threw everything but the chopper at me, they had to come for me in the morning while i was taking a dump otherwise i would have scooched on out of there.
smart
RIP Evans.
RIP Evans. 😢
That’s because we’re old farts that have enough $$ for a V4R bit not the body!!
Other than virtue signaling, why is it so cool that the project lead is a woman? What does her gender bring to the project that someone of a different gender could not have brought to the team as project lead? Or is it time to make sure that the next project lead is non-binary or transgendered for the same reason. Why can't she be judged as a great project lead without consideration of her gender? Helping Ducati bring a great product market has nothing to do with the fact that she is a woman.
why do you care so much?
Sorry for your and our loss. He was a great motorcycle reviewer. He will be missed.
RIP Evans
Evans Brasfield Killed, Suspect Charged
by Dean Adams
Friday, September 15, 2023
There were probably a good many people who work in motorcycle press not getting much sleep last night, all staring at the ceiling wondering how this could possibly be real.
Yesterday it was announced that veteran motojournalist Evans Brasfied had been killed in a street accident on Wednesday afternoon in Southern California. Brasfield had worked at many of the major motorcycle magazines and web sites over the last 20 years, including Superbikeplanet.
Brasfield was one of the most well-liked people in motorcycle press. He was known for his genial and positive attitude, along with his irreverent if not goofy sense of humor. He was a very capable, accomplished writer and photographer. He also was renown as being one of the most proficient motorcyclists in the press corps. He was not another balding punk pulling wheelies for his own stroking; Brasfield was a professional rider and test rider.
Thus it came as a universal shock to those that knew him to learn he'd been fatally injured in a street crash. Of course anybody can make a mistake but Evans was such a respected rider with a razor sharp skill set that suggesting that he'd gotten into a bad situation was almost unthinkable. But, what do we know for sure? We know that as American humorist Garrison Keillor said many years ago "Any show can be your last show."
News broke this morning that the police have arrested a driver allegedly involved in the crash that killed Evans. The California Highway Patrol (CHP) Altadena Office stated that they had arrested a person involved in a crash that killed a motorcyclist in the area where Evans crashed and died.
Evans is survived by his wife and two daughters.

Rest in peace "Fireball"! "Fireball" was his nickname from racing at Willow Springs when his EX500 caught fire. That happened before I met him in 1998. He will always be remembered by me as the rider who ran off Turn 1 at Willow, dirt tracked across to Turn 2 and rejoined the race to win!
100% guaranteed the person that hit him was driving drunk or under the influence of drugs. Highways Patrols aka Road Pirates don't care about drunk drivers since they're going below the speed limit and switching lanes without signals.
Best wishes to Evans wife and kid! You will be missed. I'll always have my memories of Evans racing EX500's at Willow Springs in the late '90's with him!
Evans was always very kind to me and will be missed 😭 Excellent review Troy. Can't wait to collect this BEASTLY machine 🦾
So sorry to hear about Evans. Tragic. RIP.
RIP Evans. Just watched a series of videos with him on it. 🙁
Ducati thank you for a dream bike - if I could only have one bike - this is it!💪🏽🏍️
Isn't the RS what the Pikes Peak should have been from the beginning!
Thing is--the RS NOT losing "just a little bit of torque". I have seen Ducati's secret not for public--dealer only dyno graphs of both meters laid over each other. The standard V4 wallops the RS from lift-off to 10,000 RPMs by 15-18 horsepower (So of course, bags of torque too)! They geared it lower as band-aid to get back some grunt. Love to see a RS vs V4 standard do a roll-on in say 5th gear--from 50-mph to 120 mph. I have a Pikes Peak V4--but if I wanted a track bike/tourer--I'd probably wander down to BMW and look at the much lighter, way more powerful, new XR1000M and have carbon wheels to boot--at much cheaper price.
You're not wrong... need to see some dynos, done on the same dyno, of these multis.
Who needs that beautiful, great bike? Not me, I stick further 100% to my brutal 2012 1200S, totally modified fork and shock. There is torque where you want it. And it revs up, even fully loaded with my wife and 3 cases. When did I use those 150 HP on public roads. Those times are over. I used it 35y ago.
There are better bikes for the race track. For me only a true Ducati racer, not streetable! Street or track, but not both together.
BMW vibrates like a washing machine. Lovely bike but if you value your arms…….
RIP Evans.. ❤
Sorry to hear about Evans
Sad sad news. Condolences to hid family.
I'm shocked and sad about Evans very very much. RIP.
About the RS model, it doesn't make sense having Panigale engine directly if it's gonna be 180hp. I would rather have pikes peak model hands dowm. This supposed to be ~210hp, that lady had to see this.
Wow, shocking news about Evans. He had a professional, considered, approach to his reviews. I'm sorry for Motorcycle's loss, and ours. My condolences to his coworkers, friends and family.✌
Regarding the Multi: Looks and sounds like a great bike.
Thanks, Q, Its meents that Multistrada Pikes Peak name is closing? Thanks.
Im thinking of selling my bmw gsa 1250 and getting one of these. What do u guys think?
Your leathers and boots compliment the bike one hundred..
Each bike will be numbered, but not limited production means I am going to charge you more and you are going to feel great. What's another Italian did that and Failed? Panerai! Pinnacle of Italians running out of ideas or getting bored with the Multi line up. $40K? No thanks! Even the Base Multi V4S went up in pricing like crazy so they had to hide the Freight to show less of an MSRP. Ducati wants to be like Ferrari, but it is just a Glorified Fiat.
He will be missed
Ride on old friend, ride on....
I cant help to think Ducati is waiting for the competition to release a machine to one up the RS then they counter act by putting the V4 Desmo top end on the 1158cc bottom end . I'm curious what cams are in the RS? Or did the degree the cams to come on sooner? Or did they just limit the rpm to 13.2k? If the last is reality, we can just flash them to V4 Panigale specs...but the thought of the 1158 V4 Desmo sounds nasty ..I hope they do that for the V4 Pani..this is coming from a V4 Speciale owner
My condolences to his family and friends.
R.I.P Evans thoughts and prayers with the family
RIP Evans you will be missed.
RIP Evans.
8:46 Yea but its way to small for a typical phone now. The added fan is a plus. I usually put "things" in there i don't want in my pocket. The phone goes on the trippleclamp. That pocket needs to be big enough for a typical phone to house a typical phone. Otherwise its just a cubby to put small things in that are smaller than your phone.
Im going to test this thing out. I put money down on it and i get to ride it today!
already have PP version ，point of changing to this one？or not too much different？
RIP Evans 🙏
RIP! Evans. Sorry to hear that dude, he truly loved what he did in motorcyle world.
Im am sorry to hear about Evans passing. I have always enjoyed his insights and reviews. My prayers are with his fans, friends, and family. Godspeed Evans.
I just don’t understand why Ducati stole the RS designation from Aprilia..?! Was there nothing else they could choose to name the bike???
P.S. RIP Evans, you will be missed from all of us!
Slower than regular sports v4 on the track, less touring capability compared to big front wheel multi v4, and not really worth the extra compared to pikes peak... Pointless model
Deepest condolences on the loss of Evans. Thanks for the initial ride review of the new RS, Troy. I look forward to an in-depth review and an inevitable comparo with the new BMW M-XR. I’d also like to see this compared/contrasted with the MTS P-P while I’m at it! Cheers!
I live in Italy near Milan and I have owned a Multi V4S Full for about a year and I am really satisfied. However, I would like to switch to a more "sporty" Multistrada because I don't do much road but I like a more agile bike and on both fast and narrow mixed routes. Which do you recommend? Pikes Peak or RS? Thanks so much for the advice. Furthermore, I would like to know from you experts whether the heat released under the rider's saddle has been reduced or not since in the height of the summer season it turns out to be very annoying. Thanks again for the clarification.
For all buyers I hope for you, you will get one without processing defects. If not, have fun with the sloopy Ducati Customer Support. Better Value, look for the BMW M 1000 XR
Ducati is a crazy company, in the best of ways.
Thanks WOW THAT'S AWESOME 😎 KEEP IT UP HAT'S OFF HI FIVE THUMBS UP WELL DONE 👍✌️👌🎯👽🙃
Does the cell phone compartment hold a modern cell phone? The previous models could only old a 1990s flip phone 😅
RIP Evans.
Price is a big problem to … we need that solved to 😅
Hello. What is the name of the leather suit please?is it some kind of limited edition?
Bah bah bah, halak hita do si troy on.
Horas lae 😂
RIP Evans 😢. 3th gear power wheelie✊🔥🔥
This vs mx1kr bmw..
Rip evans
Is this all you're gonna say about Evans?
Always sad to loose a bike brother🙏
Yes, we asked for it and Ducati eventually listened. However, four years later. Not to pour cold water on this excellent development, this is what it should have been in 2020. Frankly and only imho, the ADV segment is losing steam. I have an awesome MTS 1260 Pikes Peak with a V2 Desmo engine. When the time comes, it's going to be replaced by a SuperSport Desmo V4 should Ducati build a big brother to its excellent SS 950S.
Just put a 1299 V twin in the multi
Thanks for the very in depth review…we’re talking…VW Golf GTI money maybe, so a sh*t ton for a bike, but, um, not really that much these days….think I’ll wonder down to my Ducati dealer and just have a harmless chat….;)
Really enjoyed watching and listening Evans during my motorcycling journey. Intro was real a shocker. Have grown to love the whole crew over the past 10+ years. Sad news. Appreciate his work!
A touring bike with a dry clutch is a clear representation of the common sense of this bike
RIP Evans
Qual o valor dessa máquina ?
R.i.p Evans. Since condolences and thank you for all your contributions
God speed Evans
$38K here in the US. Awesome bike! But who's buying these things???
I can tell you were very close to Evans.
Watching it in the corners kinda reminds me of the GS1250 on single track. Kinda Rhino like.
Rip evans sir
Rip
RIP Evans.
