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.

Recreation

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

Testing the 2013 Ducati Multistrada (and how it compares to the 2010-12 Multistrada) | I'd rather be riding...

The weekend before last I had the privilege of riding, back to back, two great motorcycles: the 2010 Multistrada and the brand new 2013 Multistrada. After a short three years in production we have here a rather long list of changes in the 2013 model. The motor and the suspension are where the key changes...

The all-conquering Multistrada gets fancy new Skyhook suspension. But is it any good?

2023 Ducati Streetfighter V2 Review: Is This The Perfect All-Round Commuter Bike?

Take Ducati's Panigale V2, strip off some bodywork, and offer riders a bargain price and a 11,000 RPM redline. Is this the perfect everyday motorcycle?
