Ducati Multistrada description

2003   DUCATI   Multistrada   1000DS   (Dual – Spark)

    First year of the fabled Multistrada by Ducati featuring a 1000cc Desmodromic Dual Spark V-twin motor.  Fully adjustable suspension and ABS braking combine to offer one of the best ‘adventure bike’ rides available wrapped in a Italian suit.  Very capable with exotic styling, glorious exhaust note and bullet-proof power from one of Ducati’s best ever.

Very original and Extremely clean.   Virtually New with 6,010 on the odometer.   Digital dash w. tach

This Multistrada has received the Ducati adjustable lowering kit so it can accommodate shorter riders.

Equipped with factory option saddlebags, Fantastic Termigogni exhaust and PSR clutch slave.   

Always serviced by Ducati with extensive service file and all manuals included.  

Recently refreshed with fluids changed, New brake master, New oil lines, New battery and air filter. 

Only significant flaw is a rock chip in the headlight lens and the oem rear tire should be replaced soon.

Always garaged and Meticulously cared for by mature rider.    

Below are two reviews of the bike when it was new followed by the bikes technical specifications.

Ducati Reports 43% Growth in North America

Thu, 19 Jan 2012

Ducati North America announced growth of 43% in 2011 compared to 2010, resulting in the Bologna company’s largest ever market share in the U.S., Canada and Mexico. The announcement reinforces claims made by Ducati Chief Executive Officer Gabriele Del Torchio last September: North America has replaced Italy as Ducati’s #1 market. Ducati attributes its growth to the popularity of the Diavel and Mulistrada in North America.

Ducati 1199 Panigale On The Dyno

Mon, 23 Jan 2012

Italian magazine Motociclismo is one of the largest and most influential motorcycle publications in all of Europe, and they’ve captured this clip of a Ducati test rider running the new 1199 Panigale on the dyno. Rider wearing full gear aside (he even flips down his faceshield!), what sticks out to me is how quickly the new Superquadro engine accelerates through its rev range. I was also impressed at the length it took before the rev limiter was reached.

848 build blog : 42 days to go

Tue, 21 Feb 2012

With just 42 days until the British Superbike season starts and the 2012 848 Challenge riders head to Brands for the first of eight rounds, I thought you'd like to see the lastminute.com preparations and hard graft going into my bike to get it ready for the season ahead. Instead of ending the season in one piece, I highsided in Race 1, buggering the bike and busting my shoulder. The bike and I have been feeling very sorry for ourselves ever since.
