Hardly any motorcycle manufacturer pushes the tube like Ducati. Tea 1198 R, the Monster 696 and 1100 and the Hypermotard were modeled and set an absolute highlight with the Multistrada 1200. The travel enduro redefines the class in terms of performance and technology.

Offensive in red

Undoubtedly one of the stars of the Milan trade fair and one of the most important motorcycles for Ducati: the new travel enduro M.ultistrada 1200 boldly sets an example. Never before has a machine in this segment been so strong and so light at the same time. The V2 Desmo engine taken from the 1198 Superbike has an output of 150 hp. And can play with a dry machine that weighs 189 kilograms. That already tears on paper.

Multistrada 1200 S Sport: carbon on the fenders, timing belt and intake manifolds, also with ABS and four driving programs. The Mulistrada is also available as a touring version.

Seat sample: everything fits. As if the Bolognese had taken measurements on a BMW GS, hands and feet find their positions, the very best is happy about a comfortable seat cushion. And thanks to the paneling, the 20-liter tank can also be emptied in one stage. After all, according to Ducati, there should be a range of 400 kilometers.

The Multistrada S is available in two versions: As a sport with ABS and many carbon parts, as a touring with ABS, suitcases, center stand and heated grips. Especially this version will inspire in our part of the world if the necessary financial strength is available. The S will cost around 18,500 euros, the normal Multistrada, also optionally with ABS, should cost less than 15,000 euros.

About double that will have to be paid for the Ducati 1198 R Corse Special Edition. The new two-cylinder top model from Ducati offers pure racing technology in new colors. The 180-horsepower Desmo thunders in a further optimized chassis with the finest Ohlins spring elements and will have easy time with the 168 kilogram superbike. A larger, now 18-liter tank made of aluminum offers a more practical range and an elegant look.

Best-selling Ducatis are still the monsters. You can now get ABS for a surcharge and with the 1100 S a new top model with Ohlins suspension elements and elegant wheels.

The Hypermotard has been significantly revised: engine with now 95 hp, seven kilograms less weight thanks to new casting technology and revised chassis and a revised seating position with higher handlebars. The Evo SP version also has 20 millimeters more suspension travel.
