We came across several videos and pictures of Ajith’s Multistrada. It looks like his wife Shalini, who was also an actress, organized a special party for the actor on his birthday and in that party, he was gifted the bike. Many fansites have posted these pictures and videos. Ajith Kumar is a hardcore biker and has explored almost every corner of the country on his motorcycle.
The Ducati Multistrada shown here is actually a powerful adventure touring motorcycle. It looks like the Multistrada V4 which costs Rs 21.48 lakh ex-showroom. Ducati’s Multistrada motorcycle range consists of adventure touring motorcycles. Ducati offers V2, V2 S, V4 and V4 S variants in India. The Multistrada V4 variant gifted to Ajith Kumar was actually the third Ducati to receive a V4 engine.
The Multistrada V4 features a fully adjustable 50mm inverted fork and an adjustable monoshock. It features Ducati’s latest electronic system, powered by an inertial measurement unit to manage the cornering anti-lock braking system (ABS), wheelie control and traction control systems.
The bike has four riding modes: Travel, Enduro, Sport and Urban. Each of these modes adjusts the bike’s engine power, traction control and ABS settings to suit your riding style. The motorcycle is powered by a 1,158 cmΒ³ V4 engine that produces 170 hp and a maximum torque of 125 Nm. The motorcycle also features a cylinder deactivation system that deactivates the rear cylinder bank when the motorcycle is idling.

This is not the only adventure touring motorcycle that Ajith has in his collection. He owns a BMW R1250 GS among many other motorcycles. He recently started a motorcycle touring company called Venus Motorcycle Tours. This new venture by Ajith Kumar offers guided tours. The actor recently took a group on motorcycles to explore the Western Ghats.
Before becoming an actor, Ajith Kumar worked as a mechanic. He chose this job solely because of his passion for vehicles. Later, due to his father’s wishes, he had to change careers and started working as a business developer for a family friend’s clothing export company. While working, he completed a few modeling gigs and also learned racing at a professional level. He has participated in several professional races in Mumbai, Chennai and Delhi. He even raced in the 2003 Formula Asia BMW Championship and the 2010 Formula 2 Championship.
Ajith Kumar is a person who has inspired many actors from different film industries to ride motorcycles. Malayalam actress Manju Warrier recently got a BMW R 1250 GS motorcycle after going on a bike ride in the Himalayas with ‘Thala’. For someone who really loves motorcycles, we think the Ducati Multistrada V4 is a fitting birthday gift.
