Motorcycle specifications DucatiMultistrada 1200 S Touring 2012 Super-trail travel

when the Multistrada decides to go touring, it's a home-made cocktail of superbike, cross-country roads and plenty of equipment. A trail bike powered by 150 hp is already an intimidating and generous concept. In the S Touring version, it approaches the exceptional. The Ducati is equipped with a set of body-colored panniers offering 57 liters, a pair of heated grips, a center stand, ABS as standard, traction control, and top-of-the-range electronically controlled suspension.

in S and S Touring versions, this trail takes high-tech to the next level. Both fork and shock absorber are by Öhlins. These components are equipped with small servo-motors for adjustment. No more screwdrivers or headaches, as everything is controlled from the dashboard. Choose one of the 4 available modes (Sport, Touring, Urban, Enduro) and the electronic control unit adjusts not only the suspension, but also engine management, DTC and throttle response. The rider can also select 4 other configuration options depending on the crew on board: depending on whether you're traveling alone, accompanied, and/or with luggage, the internal computer allows you to select from: solo, solo with luggage, rider and passenger, rider and passenger with luggage. An à la carte motorcycle that commands a premium price. But you won't find another trail bike of this caliber, with so much power, so much luggage, a sense of improvisation sprinkled with electronics, a strong character and formidable velocity, anywhere else on the market.
