Radiator Cover Guards For Ducati Multistrada V4 / V4S - 2021 to 2027

Radiator Side Cover for Ducati Multistrada V4 (2021–2026)

This radiator cover set is a pair of aftermarket body panels designed to replace the OEM radiator side covers on the Ducati Multistrada V4, giving the prominent front flanks of the bike a different color, finish, or material than the factory standard. The set is available in multiple color and finish options — including solid colors and carbon fiber look — to suit a range of color schemes and personal preferences without requiring any modification to the bike's existing bodywork.

The radiator covers on the Multistrada V4 are among the most visible body panels on the bike when viewed from the front or either side. They flank the engine and radiator section in a position that occupies a significant share of the visual mass of the front end, which makes them one of the most effective single points of intervention for changing the overall color character of the bike — without touching the main fairing, tank, or tail section.

Why Owners Replace These Covers

The most common reason is color personalization. The standard OEM color options for the Multistrada V4 are limited, and riders who want a specific color scheme — red covers on a white bike, black covers on a red bike, or a carbon look on any base color — can achieve it with these panels without the cost and permanence of repainting factory parts. The covers occupy enough visual real estate at the front of the bike that a color change here shifts the perceived character of the whole front third.

The second common reason is damage replacement. The radiator covers on any adventure motorcycle that gets dropped or used off-road accumulate scuffs, cracks, and stress marks over time. Replacing factory covers with quality aftermarket panels is significantly less expensive than sourcing OEM Ducati parts, which carry the premium associated with the brand's parts pricing. At this price point the covers provide a quality finish that is consistent with the Multistrada V4's presentation without requiring the owner to absorb an OEM price premium for panels that are subject to further cosmetic wear.

Finish and Color Options

The covers are available in a range of colors and finishes across twelve variants. Standard color options include gloss black, gloss white, gloss red, and other solid colors that match or complement the OEM color schemes available for the Multistrada V4. Carbon fiber look finishes are also available, using a carbon weave pattern in the ABS surface that gives the covers the visual character of carbon fiber composite without the associated manufacturing cost.

The carbon fiber look finish is the most popular option for riders who want the Multistrada V4 to read as a more track-focused or sportier machine. Genuine carbon fiber panels on a motorcycle of this scale and complexity cost significantly more than ABS alternatives, and the carbon look ABS achieves a comparable visual effect at a price that is appropriate for a body panel accessory. The finish is UV-stable and resists the fading and yellowing that characterized older generation carbon look ABS products.

Fitment and Installation — Ducati Multistrada V4 2021–2026

These covers are designed as direct replacements for the OEM radiator side covers on the Ducati Multistrada V4. They use the same mounting points and attachment hardware as the factory panels, which means installation is a straightforward panel swap with no modification required to the bike's bodywork, subframe, or wiring. Installation takes approximately 15–20 minutes per side using the hardware already on the bike or basic hand tools.

The covers are compatible with all Multistrada V4 variants produced from 2021 through 2026. The V4, V4S, V4S Sport, Pikes Peak, Rally, and Grand Tour all share the same radiator cover geometry, so a single set covers the full production range without variant-specific differences in fitment. The OEM covers removed during installation can be stored and refitted at any point, leaving the bike fully reversible to standard specification.

Frequently Asked Questions

Are these genuine carbon fiber or a carbon look finish?

The carbon fiber look variants are ABS plastic with a carbon fiber weave pattern in the surface finish. They are not genuine carbon fiber composite panels. Genuine carbon fiber panels for a motorcycle of this complexity are considerably more expensive to manufacture and would be priced well above this level. The carbon look ABS provides the visual character of carbon fiber at a price point that is appropriate for a body panel accessory, and the finish quality on these covers is consistent with what the Multistrada V4's owner demographic expects from a premium motorcycle accessory.

Do they fit the Multistrada V4 Rally with its factory crash bars?

The Multistrada V4 Rally uses the same chassis and radiator cover geometry as the standard V4 and V4S. The factory crash bar kit on the Rally attaches at separate mounting points on the frame and does not affect the radiator cover mounting position or panel clearance. These covers are fully compatible with the Rally variant and fit correctly with the factory crash bars installed, requiring no modification to either component.

Can I fit these myself, or do I need a dealer?

Installation is a panel swap using the bike's existing mounting hardware and requires no specialist tools, dealer access, or diagnostic equipment. The covers attach at the same points as the OEM panels and the process is fully reversible. These covers are designed for owner installation, and the fitment is straightforward enough that any rider comfortable with basic motorcycle maintenance can complete the swap without assistance.
