Conclusion - what sticks

The Multistrada V2 (S) is a Ducati after old grist and grain: tubular frame, a bit V2 with desmodromics at the bottom and a bike with rough edges. We are sure that there are many Ducatisti out there who will prefer the V2 to a Multi V4 for exactly these reasons - even if the V4 may objectively be the better bike. But who cares about an objective view of a motorcycle??? In any case, we had a lot of fun with the V2 and are happy that Ducati continues to offer a Multistrada of this type.
 
We received the test bike from Ducati Hamburg for this test. At Ducati HH there are plenty of finest demonstrators - including the new Desert X. If you can hardly sit quietly now: Let's go to the Papenreye! And barn greetings to Lisa, Steffi and Sascha...
