Overview

Introducing the 2019 Ducati Multistrada 950, a masterful blend of versatility, comfort, and performance, perfectly tailored for the adventurous spirit of motorcycle enthusiasts. Positioned within the all-rounder category, the Multistrada 950 is designed for riders who crave the thrill of the open road while appreciating the practicality of a multi-purpose touring bike. With its striking Ducati Red finish and aggressive design, this motorcycle isn't just a means of transportation; it’s an invitation to explore both highways and backroads with confidence and style. At the heart of the Multistrada 950 lies a potent 937cc V2 engine, delivering a robust 113 horsepower at 9,000 RPM and an impressive torque of 96.2 Nm at 7,750 RPM. The bike’s power delivery is smooth and exhilarating, thanks to its innovative Bosch electronic fuel injection system and Ride-by-Wire technology, which allows for precise throttle control. Riders will appreciate the seamless gear transitions facilitated by the 6-speed gearbox and the wet multiplate clutch, ensuring enhanced control during maneuvers. Whether you’re carving through twisty mountain roads or cruising on the highway, the Multistrada 950’s engaging performance and nimble handling will make every ride a memorable experience. The Multistrada 950 is equipped with advanced technology and features that elevate both safety and comfort. The fully adjustable KYB 48 mm USD front suspension and Sachs monoshock rear suspension provide a plush ride, while the impressive 170 mm of travel at both ends ensures that bumps and potholes are absorbed effortlessly. The dual-disc front brakes with ABS and radially mounted four-piston calipers deliver confident stopping power, enhancing rider safety. Additional features such as traction control and an electric starter further exemplify Ducati’s commitment to blending cutting-edge technology with the thrill of riding. **

Pros

  • Versatile Performance: The Multistrada 950 excels in various riding conditions, from touring to adventure riding, making it an ideal choice for diverse enthusiasts.
  • Advanced Technology: The inclusion of Ride-by-Wire, traction control, and ABS ensures a safe and responsive ride, enhancing overall rider confidence.
  • Comfortable Ergonomics: With an adjustable seat height and well-designed riding posture, the bike accommodates a wide range of riders, making long-distance trips enjoyable.

Cons

  • Weight: At 205.7 kg (453.5 pounds) dry and 229.0 kg (504.9 pounds) with fluids, the Multistrada 950 may feel a bit heavy for novice riders or in tight maneuvers.
  • Price Point: Ducati's premium quality comes at a cost, making it less accessible for budget-conscious riders.
  • Seat Height: While the seat height is adjustable, at its lowest setting, it may still be slightly tall for shorter riders, potentially affecting confidence during stops.
