Ducati Multistrada 1200 S 2015

Ducati Multistrada 1200 S 2015

The new Ducati Multistrada 1200 S is a thoroughly successful new edition of the extra-sporty touring enduro. The weaknesses of the predecessor were obviously analysed in detail and corrected: thanks to the DVT system, the engine now also works harmoniously in the lower rev range and the seating position is now also more suitable for comfort-oriented riders. The electronics have been massively upgraded; no other touring enduro is so comprehensively equipped. Starting with the many adjustable modes for power delivery and suspension, the brakes and cornering ABS are also of the highest standard. Although the "normal" Multisrtrada 1200 does without some electronic gimmicks, it is also cheaper and does not ride any worse overall.

Ducati Streetfighter V4 S 2023

Ducati Streetfighter V4 S 2023

Ducati has managed to improve the performance of the Streetfighter V4 S with specific changes. Even though the performance data have not changed, the rideability has been decisively improved. The big changes could not be expected on a bike that was already performing at the highest level - there is hardly anything to complain about on the current hyper-naked bikes anyway. When it comes to the sound, the engineers have overshot the mark. Regardless of whether the bike is at idle or in driving mode, the Streetfighter V4 S is simply too loud. Especially on fast tracks, the wind pressure pushes the helmet against the nose and tenses the neck muscles enormously, but that's the price you have to pay if you want to ride a naked bike, just as you have to reckon with darkness at night!
