By the 2010 Ducati Multistrada 1200S... I see poverty and a new bike in my future.
According to reports, Ducati test riders were spotted testing at an off-road circuit and it appeared to perform quite well.
First of all I think it looks fantastic, and will go like stink on road I'm sure. But looking at the ground clearance, those wheels and those front brakes I really wouldn't want to take down anything other than a short, firm, dry track. One the road, I'd need a telescope to see it from my KTM 990 Adv..... So "more" styling than capable, but any bike will go down a track, and a REALLY good rider (like the Duke test riders) I'm sure can make it perform OK on something more serious. Mud? No, stay indoors. cheers Markie
Isn't this the same bike that most people on here nearly puked when they saw pictures of it? -- Beav VN 750 Zed 1000 OMF# 19
Next thing we'll see is someone saying the new VFR is a good looking bike with a funky exhaust. -- Beav VN 750 Zed 1000 OMF# 19
