Ducati North America email MotoGP sport tourer wtf Multistrada V4

I must start by conceding I absolutely loathe that phrase and the bastardization of 'literally' but I can't think of a better response to "introducing our MotoGP-derived sport tourer". I assume they're just referring to the move to V4 and maybe some sportier suspension but, like, a MotoGP-derived Multistrada? Not only does Ducati make a dozen other bikes where track tuning is actually appealing but there are a dozen not-MotoGP racing formats that are what the Multistrada was designed for.

Are the targeting the demographic that's too tall for a Panigale but prefers the sportbike aesthetic?

I look forward to Mercedes's Formula 1-derived Sprinter and Toyota's WRC-inspired Sienna.

 Investment risks, 401k funds are stupid, and ETFs that sell covered calls.

 Fall means pumpkin patches and relatively empty beaches and zoos. It's also good for board and video games. 		►

Ducati Hypermotard 1100 evo SP - test and review | I'd rather be riding...

 Hold the presses. This bike deserves your attention! Bikes come in several shapes and styles. You know the cruisers, the sport bikes, the touring bikes, my beloved enduro bikes (or adventure touring, dual sport bikes), the dirt bikes and possibly others. The motard style is the result of riders modifying their dirt bikes and turning...
