Superbike for everyday use

What's stuck? The Multistrada is a capped superbike that is suitable for everyday use, allows long tours at a time, is fast and also ensures the passenger a comfortable livelihood.

It offers almost the same riding performance as a superbike, the same stability when it needs to go faster and packs a wendigkeit. It is the superbike for the rider, who no longer wants to edge on the motorcycle, but may enjoy the upright posture.
With her whole facility she enjoyed Dietmar and me a lot.

For everyone else, think about it well. If you don't want to be constantly challenged, who enjoys the peace, who gets the constant roar ingenuity on your nerves, who wants to cruise first – let it stay.

The test bike was provided to us by Ducati Hamburg.

Result

The Benelli 752S is a simple but well-made mid-range naked bike for a fair price. Racers probably won't be happy with it, but connoisseurs and bikers with the claim to want to ride something special will. Brakes, tires and chassis were convincing in the test, and the rather simple equipment also suits this machine. Maybe the Benelli 752S is even the perfect second bike for adventure bikers who don't want to push the fat BMW or anything else out of the garage every time they go for a coffee ride. Just test drive the Benelli, it's not that expensive. And two bikes are just better than just one, right?
