MultiStrada 1000 DS

PURE PASSION
The Multistrada 1000 DS has widened the horizons of all those who are “sport motorcyclists” at heart but still want a bike they can use 7 days a week. This new approach to motorcycling leaves no room for compromise and has given the Multistrada a unique personality and character in true Ducati style.

Choosing a Multistrada means thrill-filled enjoyment, powered by a powerful yet always controllable engine and a refined chassis that promises confident handling and optimal comfort even over long distances.

Thanks to high torque even at low revs, the punchy 992 cc twin-cylinder engine makes for an exciting ride, its smooth power delivery being enhanced by Dual Spark ignition.

The unmistakable Ducati trellis frame combines with fully-adjustable Showa suspension to adapt the bike to any road conditions and riding styles, providing excellent road holding and smooth handling. A stylish aluminium rear swingarm ensures outstanding rigidity and lightness.
