The Ducati Multistrada V4 is probably one of the most capable upright Multistrada bikes we have ever seen since the BMW S1000XR. Every aspect of this bike is AMAZING it’s an updated 848 dual purpose. At BT Moto, we take bikes that are already amazing and make them spectacular. The Ducati Multistrada V4 is no exception.
Our work with the Panigale V4/1299/1199/959/899/848 Handheld Tuner has helped us develop what we consider the best upgrade you can get for your Multi. We have found the refreshed 2020 Streetfighter has a lot of positive changes of 2020+ V4 but with restrictions in the ECU, not only visually, but mostly all on the software side. Remember we use factory information and reverse engineer we don’t use incomplete or cheap guessing “Race” editors like our competitors do.
We had to re-develop fuel map strategies from square one. Ignition maps and throttle mapping are also all new for 2021+ Ducati Multistrada V4. One of the big complaints for the Multi was the twitchy throttle that could make the bike buck in a corner along with the big torque HOLE from 4-8,000rpm. The next issue is the exhaust valve problem, bad start and idling, and low power at midrange due to extremely lean fueling.
At the moment we have mapping for: stock exhaust, Akrapovic, Arrow and Termignoni (Other mapping is possible based on our best guesses but recommend AFR confirmation post flashing)
Anyone that has the Akra up-map will say the bike feels a lot more lively than stock. So how does our Stage 1 flash compare? Beta testers and our own R&D reveal a VAST improvement over the stock map and even the up-map from Akra.
Currently, there are only one option to flash the Multi and they it requires the purchase of an exhaust system. This option is mostly just fueling changes and can be dramatically improved upon. How do we know? We’ve tested all options extensively and can say with 100% confidence that our flash is superior in every way. The up-map flash option cannot be purchased independently without the purchase of an exhaust. So what do people with all other exhausts do? There’s nothing they can do at the moment. Our mapping is currently the only truly developed and tuned file using true Conti M4D Ducati function sheets and mapping accordingly, using our in-house motorcycle and dynometer and datalogging. Not just nudging numbers in generic editors, with no testing, like we see so many people do.
With or without an exhaust flash, we all know the Ducati Multistrada is a great bike! We also know it isn’t perfect. Issues that we’ve tested ourselves and what customers have reported include the following:
After extensive R&D with our own, in-house, Ducati V2 and select “beta” testers, we can confidently say that we successfully addressed each issue and improved every performance aspect of the V4.
When you buy an Akrapovic full system you get a map from the dealer to upload. You are not allowed to upload this yourself. Only a dealer can do this after verifying VIN and purchase. The flash is very basic. Rev limit is increased, AFR (air fuel ratio) is changed to accommodate the new exhaust and the ignition map is altered. Our testing found that there wasn’t really a lot of research done on these changes and MUCH could be improved upon. There’s no available updates or changes (should you decide to upgrade more engine components) and it’s made for pump fuel only.
**Short exhausts like SC Project, for example, require the use of baffles to maintain good rideability and optimal performance**
**Software Version: DU_QD240 computers support, new ones still being worked on**
All dyno runs performed back to back with STOCK EXHAUST and 93 pump gas. You can see the flash make the Streetfighter carry more power for longer at the top of the RPM range in a track setting or spirited canyon riding. In the mid-range you can see a noticeable performance gain in the mid and low-range. Perfect for cruising and light to light traffic.
RED = Stock tuning, stock air filter, 93 pump gas – 184whp / 85wtq
BLUE = BT Moto Stage 1, stock air filter, 93 pump gas – 193whp / 88wtq
Thoroughly tested by our own engineers, not just for its function but also durability. We purposefully dropped this thing about 100 times just to make sure if you accidentally dropped it, it would still be a usable device.
NO DOWNTIME – No need to send in your ECU or remove it from your bike at all. You order the handheld, it get’s delivered to you, you flash your bike. You never miss a day of riding and no effort removing the ECU.
STORE MULTIPLE MAPS – When you send in your ECU, you only get one map. You might be thinking, “why would I need more than one map?”. Storing multiple maps means you’re able to flash for different fuels. If you’re a serious track competitor, we can work with you to get you different mapping for different tracks. If, for example, you’re add an exhaust to your stock bike, we can email you a file that takes the new exhaust into account with the changes you need to optimize your bike’s new modifications.
GO BACK TO STOCK ANYTIME – Not only can you store multiple race maps, you can also flash the original, stock file back into the bike at any time and for any reason.
