Ducati have updated their £28,895 Multistrada V4 Pikes Peak adventure model for 2027 with a fresh coat of paint said to be inspired by the brand’s Grand Prix and World Superbike racing machines.
The bike retains its 1158cc V4 Granturismo engine as before, producing a claimed 167.6bhp at 10,750rpm and 91.4lb.ft of torque at 9000rpm – with the upper bodywork now dressed in a mixture of red, white and black that wouldn’t look out of place in a 1990s Foggymania poster .
Sitting at the sportier end of the Bologna brand’s adventure bike offering, the new design was said to be a collaboration between Ducati’s central design team and Drudi Performance (the people behind Valentino Rossi ’s iconic helmets) and is available to order in dealerships now.
It’s a been a bit of a slow start to Ducati’s annual new model marathon. First came the full details on the Desmo 450SM supermoto we first saw at World Ducati Week , and now we’ve got updated colours. Here’s hoping whatever comes next will have a bit more substance to get riders excited for 2027.
