THE SLICKEST MULTI-TOOL IN TOWN
Ducati introduced the Multistrada 950 back in 2017 as a stepping stone into the Multistrada world. For 2022, Ducati wanted to make that move even easier, with a more accessible Multi V2, thanks to new and rider-friendly ergonomics, a thinner and lower seat, and a significant weight saving of 5kg. Ducati also supply it in a 35kW format for A2 licence holders in Europe.
The company hasn’t tried to rewrite a proven recipe, but simply improved the existing model with small but significant changes like a lighter clutch, a roomier riding position (there is 10mm more between pegs and seat), and a large saving on unsprung weight, thanks to 1.7kg lighter wheels from the premium Multistrada V4.
Ducati arranged a two-day road test around Tuscany in northern Italy for us to get to grips with its ‘entry-level’ Multi V2 S. With the optional panniers packed with enough kit for a couple of days, we headed out into the stunning scenery.
