Ducati continues to announce some of the models that will make up his range for the next season. Among them is confirmed the arrival of a new V4 Diavel in version “RS”. As with the multistrade last season, the Muscle Bike Italian will be propelled by Excellent Desmmosedici Stradale de la Panigale V4. A waste of benefits aimed at satisfying the sports needs of the most demanding.
As we told you a few days ago, in relation to the future Ducati Monster and Desertx equipped with the new V2 of the brand, the discovery of an upcoming V4 RS diavel has been given due to the filtration of some of the homologation documents, presented by the Italian firm before the National Traffic Safety Administration on the US roads.
Ducati Diavel V4 RS 2026: Everything we can expect
Once again, Motorcycle’s companions have been one of the first international media to echo this news. We also knew thanks to them as Ducati already prepares the next generation of Panigale V4 R. In the same way that all the previous models, the Transalpina firm requested the registration of the internal code before the American competent authority.
In the case of the V4 RS Diavel, we would be facing the third time that Ducati makes use of these acronyms throughout its history. In addition to the aforementioned multistrada, the Burgo Panigale brand did the same in the 2006 season to launch its Monster S4 RS. In both cases we are facing truly radical versions in terms of benefits, thanks to the addition of an engine derived from high competition.
Currently, Ducati’s RS versions enjoy the demosedici Stradale propeller. We talk about a V4 mechanics at 90 ° from 1,103 cc with demodromic distribution, counter -priest axis and Twin Distribution Press capable of generating in the Panigale V4 a final power of 216 hp at 13,500 rpm and a maximum torque of 120.9 Nm to 11,250 rpm. In the case of Multistrada V4 RS these figures have been reduced to 180 hp and 118 nm of torque, in order to adapt the benefits to the philosophy of the motorcycle.
Something similar must be expected once the Diavel V4 rs is launched. Currently, in its standard version, it declares a maximum power of 168 hp, a figure that will increase significantly in this exclusive RS variant. It is also foreseeable that a good number of components in carbon fiber and I use the STM EVO-SBK dry clutch components in CNC.
