The V4R service manual I have is for the 2023 V4R bike. At least they updated the pictures anyway. Ohlins gives the spec as 310mm +4/-2 so 314mm max. At 316mm you’d be past the mark on the threads, which I thought was there to indicate max safe length.

2023 V4R // 2023 SEASON
these are Ducati Fairings, I just the new Speed Carbon fairings in. I will post images today Have you found any fairings (besides the Ducati branded fairings) that fit the bike with the STOCK exhaust? Motocambri has a bunch of choices, but they are all for the RACE exhaust. Yes, First Gear...

MotoSpec went out of business after you started publishing your spec overlay images of on the internet.

I wonder if this was an Italian factory one off or by intent. Looks a tad too long.

That's what I thought. If I tried to adjust the length so that ring would show past the lock nut there was a very obvious binding to the threads, almost as if Ohlins was saying stop. 
It seems the Ohlins spec, 310mm +4mm/-2mm seems to be on the money.
I took a snapshot of this back in 2022 from this site. The interesting part is that it was some semi-famous fast guy, I forget who and can't find the thread, that was fast using a V4S in its dynamic mode. My maxing out all of the dynamic settings, you'd just be letting the bike adjust more.

The shock absorber has a maximum distance indicated by a groove on the threaded section of its eyelet.
Warning
Once the maximum centre distance has been reached, the groove is aligned with lock nut (5) when this is tightened.
If, with lock nut (5) tightened, the groove protrudes with respect to the lock nut, the shock absorber centre distance
used is NOT CORRECT (too long).
