The first Multistrada V4 model dedicated to the great race has been announced with plenty of kit for a top shelf bike, aimed at those who demand the best. Don't be mistaken; this is a lot of differences and extras vs the Multistrada V4 S.

Introducing the Multistrada V4 Pikes Peak.

  • Enchanced Quickshifter with new strategy for faster gear shifts and aggressive downshifts allowable
  • New more gradual rev limiter strategy
  • More direct grip throttle link with High Engine Mode
  • One version, one colour, one trim
