Ducati Multistrada V4 Rally 2023

Ducati Multistrada V4 Rally 2023

That the Ducati Multistrada V4 Rally generally prefers the road to tough off-road terrain was already clear from the outset when we looked at the data sheet. That it nevertheless doesn't shy away from any adventure was also clear. But all the test riders were surprised and impressed by how confidently it copes with demanding passages. Despite 19-inch wheels and a lot of mass, it can do more than just gravel roads. Above all, the good electronics and the finely controllable engine make it manageable off-road. The natural limits of the off-road rumbler only become noticeable at high speeds due to the sagging suspension elements or in very rough trial passages due to the dwindling stability of the front wheel. If you can't forgive a touring enduro of this dimension, you're looking in the wrong segment.

It's unbelievable how wide the range of this motorbike is. When needed, it looks like a cheeky sports machine with which one likes to scrape the footrests. On the other hand, it glides confidently along the motorway. The Tracer 9GT+ is a great all-rounder!

Fun, rev-happy engine

Agile handling

Top quickshifter

Practical touring equipment

Well-functioning adaptive cruise control, which is a pleasure to use in practice

Huge, easy-to-read TFT display

Good operation of the electronics.

Vibrations on the footrests

very cumbersome navigation integration into the display

filigree-looking windshield that wobbles noticeably at high speeds.
