Multistrada - ordered!

[Spie]

Took the plunge and pulled the trigger on a new 1200S Sport.

I have high hopes for this bike. 150BHP and sub 200KG weight in an upright package with electronics galore is going to be fun

Very jealous. I love them but my budget barely tretched to an Africa Twin!

When does it arrive?

 

[Felix]

V V Nice!

 

[Spie]

6 weeks time

 

[Mackeral_Fillet]

Nice. Didn't fancy the new ltd edition Pikes Peak?

 

[Fireskull]

Nice choice, saw my first one on the road the other day, they do have a great presence about them

 

[Spie]

Looks like a 1200S Sport with a few extra carbon bits, special paint job and red frame?

Not mad keen on the paint tbh.

 

[metbandit1]

i know someone with one of these and he says that he loves it so im sure you'll feel the same about it!

The electronics in those things are crazy.

 

[Flukester]

Looks amazing... they seem to have come a long way since the first ones which looked abit marmite.

want

May I say you have exceptional taste and I know you will enjoy it

Be sure you address a few mechanical teething issues i.e power surging. Also if you intend to get the Ducati luggage there are new versions with improved locking

Stick it in sport mode and twist

The Multistrada 1200 S Pikes Peak is specially dressed in stunning replica Ducati Corse-style paint scheme with passenger foot-peg hangers and engine guard anodised in black finish and sport red pin-striping on the wheels. In addition to the original equipment silencer and screen the Pikes Peak Special Edition arrives with an EU approved Ducati Performance carbon fibre silencer by Termignoni and a race-derived low screen in carbon fibre. A Ducati Performance carbon fibre front mudguard, and custom made seat detailed with red stitching complete an enhanced specification well worthy of a race-winning replica.

Good stuff, heard these are beyond awesome. Thoroughly looking forward to a detailed in-depth review on this

You looking to be offroading it, or as a more practical runaround than the 'busa?

 

[Spie]

No plans for offroading, just blasting along mountain passes

 

[Maccapacca]

Nice but oh my god the old one is hideous

 

[JPL]

Showing your my age son.......tis alright I suppose.......heh!

Falling off at our age is a deffo bad thang,eh what chap?

Walking on the beaches etc etc..

Didn't fancy the Diavel for something like that? That said, I imagine the multistrada's probably a more suitable size for someone of your stature

 

[Benihana]

V jealous, looking forward to your thoughts, seems like a great all rounder. Not seen a bad review...
