2022 Ducati Multistrada V4S Overview
For 2022, Ducati offers the Multistrada V4S as an enduro / off-road motorcycle with 1158 cc on tap. The 2022 Ducati Multistrada V4S is built around a Four stroke, 90° Granturismo V 4, counter rotating crankshaft, 4 valves per cylinder, Twin Pulse firing order engine, a compression ratio of 14.0:1. Out on the road, the Multistrada V4S delivers 170 hp @ 10500 rpm of peak power and 125 Nm @ 8750 rpm of torque. In everyday use, the 2022 Multistrada V4S tips the scales at 243 kg, carries a 22-litre fuel tank, offers a seat height of 790 mm - 875 mm and spans a 1567 mm wheelbase. That's roughly 44.2 kg heavier than the average enduro / off-road motorcycle in our database. Every technical detail, from suspension travel to tyre sizes, is covered in the full 2022 Ducati Multistrada V4S spec sheet below.
2022 Multistrada V4S - Pros & Cons
Strengths
-
⚡
Strong power output: Peak output on the Multistrada V4S is 170 hp @ 10500 rpm and 125 Nm @ 8750 rpm of torque - strong numbers for what it is.
-
🔧
Fuel injection: No choke, no jetting, no altitude compensation to think about - fuel injection just works across a wider range of conditions than carburetion.
-
⛽
Large fuel range: With a 22-litre tank, this isn't a bike you'll be stopping for fuel every hour - a real asset on longer trips.
Considerations
-
⚙️
Chain final drive upkeep: A chain drivetrain is the most common setup in its class, but it's also the one that demands the most regular hands-on maintenance.
Wear Points & Servicing Notes
Cooling system servicing
With Liquid cooled, thermal management is largely automatic, but the coolant has a service life of its own - replace it on the manufacturer's interval to protect the water passages and thermostat.
Fuelling & injector care
Fuelling on the Multistrada V4S comes from fuel injectionsystem. Cold starts and throttle response stay consistent across altitude and temperature, the main practical edge over a carbureted equivalent.
Brake disc and pad wear
2x 330mm semi-floating discs, radially mounted Brembo M50 Stylema monobloc 4-piston 2-pad calipers, radial master cylinder up front provides the primary stopping power; inspect disc thickness and pad wear at each tyre change to catch scoring before it becomes a rotor replacement.
Suspension condition on used examples
Suspension duties are handled by 50 mm fully adjustable USD fork, electronic compression and rebound damping adjustment with Ducati Skyhook Suspension up front and Fully adjustable monoshock, electronic adjustment with Ducati Skyhook Suspension, aluminum double-sided swingarm at the rear. Weeping fork seals aren't a dealbreaker on a used bike, but they're a fair basis for negotiating price.
Final drive maintenance
Chain final drive on the Multistrada V4S means routine lubing and tension checks are part of ownership - skip them and sprocket wear accelerates noticeably.
Frame & chassis check
The Aluminum monocoque frame chassis holds up well with normal use; on a used bike it's still worth checking the head-stock and swingarm pivot area for impact damage or corrosion.
Handling the weight at a standstill
The Multistrada V4S's 243 kg kerb weight is worth factoring into how you handle it at a standstill - parking-lot manoeuvres need a bit more deliberate technique than on a lighter machine.
Multistrada V4S - Buying & Maintenance Guide
What to check before buying
A pre-purchase check on the 2022 Ducati Multistrada V4S should cover the same ground every time: service history, chain and sprocket condition, and any oil seepage around the casings. Start it from cold if you can - a well-kept Multistrada V4S settles to a smooth idle within seconds.
Oil and filter changes
Oil changes are the cheapest insurance you can buy for a Multistrada V4S's engine - keep to the manufacturer's interval rather than stretching it. Use the viscosity grade the manual specifies, not whatever's on sale.
Fuel system care
Injector systems like the Multistrada V4S's hold up well with basic care - decent fuel, an occasional cleaner additive, and draining old fuel before any layup longer than three months.
