Multistrada 1260

Post by kingfixer »

Me and my business partner were at the bike show on Sunday then on to a concert at the Arena Birmingham afterwards, not overly impressed with the looks of the new V4, the 959 Corse is beautiful. But for me the best thing on the Ducati stand was the new 1260 Multistrada pikes peak, I said I wouldn't upgrade mine but seeing this has maybe changed my mind :)

Be interesting to see how much more low down torque there is. The figures are impressive.

I’m liking that a whole lot, but I’d guess it’s a bit marmite for some.

Saw the bike at the show today.

Got to say I fancy a go on the Pikes Peak version.
