The
new
Ducati Multistrada 1200 reigns supreme. Not just a new bike, but a
new
concept of bike. From the moment the EICMA show opened, the area of the
Ducati stand dedicated to this innovative machine was flooded with a constant
tide of visitors, all eager to see the new product, the pride of the Italian
motorcycle industry.
The
1200 is a Multistrada with the emphasis on Multi, a sportbike which is powerful
and fun but also easy to ride and whose first priority is the safety and
comfort of its rider.
Ducati
wanted to produce a motorcycle to tackle any kind of journey and road surface,
a motorcycle that used technology derived from the Bologna-made race bikes in
MotoGP and
World Superbike.
A
bike with no limits, that can transform itself to suit the rider's demands,
from a supersport to a tourer for long journeys with a passenger and luggage,
to an everyday bike which can breeze through the daily commute and also tackle
off-road routes with the agility of an enduro; in other words, four bikes in
one!
The
Ducati
Multistrada 1200 arrives on
the market in Spring
2010, but be sure to check back here for the latest parts and accessories for this beast of a bike!
