The debut of the new Ducati Multistrada 1200 at the EICMA has been confirmed, after we first reported the Multistrada countdown site, giving Ducati the opportunity to monopolise media attention at the show.
In the end, just because Honda and Yamaha won’t be present, doesn’t mean the rest of us can’t have some fun!The EICMA runs from November 10th to 15th at Milan’s “Fiera” and Ducati will be in hall 18, showing off the Multistrada which will be presented to the public for the first time ever.
The bike is set to be a mix of sports ride with versatilility and comfort, and of course, quintessential Ducati style.
The Multistrada name translates to “many roads”, which is just what the spirit of this bike is about.
It’s designed to be an all-road terrain bike with top notch Ducati technology and performance which adapt themselves to the individual needs and riding style of the owner.
While Honda has the head-start on sports touring models with its VFR1200F, the Ducati Multistrada 1200 is designed to include touring elements as well as being a supersports model that is flexible enough for daily use as well as some soft-offroading in the form of an enduro-road model.
The engine on this new Ducati is none other than the Testastretta featured on the Ducati 1198.
Engineers and mechanics at Borgo Panigale have managed to exploit the power and elasticity of this motor, fitting it to the Multistrada in order to get the performance and flexibility you’d associate with a bike of this kind.
The new Testastretta 11° has thus been developed, and we can’t wait to see it all at the EICMA.
