The gossip on the Multistrada board was that the whole Strada Aperta that was tailored to be more off-road oriented was either a ruse, or it was dropped. The new Multi is (according to their dealer source) a 4V 1198 and very much tailored for the street. It'll be interesting to see what they come up with.

Yeah, and it's going to have a new name, the StreetFighter.  [coffee]

The impression I got was it'd be closer to a cross between the ST and MTS series.

Ducati definitely needs to bring it more in line with the ST than the HM.

Wow! A Multi that won't come with a paper bag!  [thumbsup]

I'll believe that when I see it in person!

I think that Ducati could come up with a better bike than either the BMW F1200GS or the KTM.  A real Adventure Tourer that makes 90 plus HP and
weighs less than 380 lbs is something Ducati could do.  No more posers; wire wheels, high exhaust pipe (like on the new monsters), aluminum skid plate,  10" of adjustable suspension travel, and real dual sport tires.  No one makes a bike like that and I'd be willing to test it for Ducati on the dirt and mud roads of Alaska and northern Canada.

Visordown News is reporting that Ducati will be aiming the next-gen Multistrada at the BMW R1200GS. 

HAHAHAHAHAHA

that first pic gives me an idea.
uh-oh....  [thumbsup] don't know what, but if it's as cool as your last multistroodle, do it.
