Ducati Multistrada 1260 Enduro MY19

The Multistrada #enduro continues to evolve thanks to the new 1262 cm3 #ducati Testastretta DVT (Desmodromic Variable Timing) engine, major chassis and electronics upgrades and an all-new colour scheme. This new Euro 4-compliant 1262 cm3 #ducati Testastretta DVT ensures outstanding pulling power right from the low-to-mid rev range. In fact, 85% of maximum torque is already available below 3,500 rpm with - compared to the torque curve on the engine that powered the previous model - an 17% increase at 5,500 rpm. This makes the #multistrada1260 #enduro the motorcycle with the highest torque (at 4,000 rpm, the most common rev rate while riding) in its category.

While the new #ducati #multistrada1260 #enduro provides impressive performance, power delivery is kept under control thanks to the Riding Modes, the new Ride by Wire function which ensures both smoother throttle control and outstanding safety, and the DQS (Ducati Quick Shift) Up & Down, which significantly improves the ride experience by ensuring precise, fluid upshift and downshift gear meshing.

Thanks to spoked wheels - 19’’ at the front and 17’’ at the rear - the #multistrada1260 #enduro is perfect for long-distance adventure rides. Featuring electronic semi-active Sachs suspension (with 185 mm of travel both front and rear) and a 30-litre fuel tank, the #multistrada1260 #enduro is, with a range of 450 km (280 miles) and beyond, an unstoppable globetrotter on any terrain.

A revised ergonomics (seat, handlebar and centre of gravity are all lower than on the 1200 version) and a new suspension setup ensure more comfort and fun to any rider in any condition.

On the electronics front, the new #multistrada1260 #enduro has the most advanced package in the segment. The new 6-axis Bosch Inertial Measurement Unit (IMU) controls Bosch ABS Cornering, Cornering Lights (DCL) and #ducati Wheelie Control (DWC). Riders can set both DWC and DTC to one of 8 different levels, or simply deactivate them. Also as-standard on the #multistrada1260 #enduro is Vehicle Hold Control (VHC), which makes uphill starts easier, especially with a full load. Lastly, the Bosch IMU also interacts with the semi-active #ducati Skyhook Suspension (DSS) Evolution control system.

A sophisticated new Human Machine Interface (HMI) ensures - via a 5’’ TFT colour display and switchgear controls - user-friendly control of all bike settings and functions, the #ducati Multimedia System (DMS) included. The DMS connects the bike to the rider's smartphone via Bluetooth, giving access to all key multimedia functions (incoming calls, text messaging, music). Other Multistrada 1260 Enduro features include cruise control and a hands-free system.

The #multistrada1260 #enduro has long maintenance intervals: the oil only needs changing every 15,000 km (9000 miles) while a Desmo Service is required only every 30,000 km (18,000 miles). The result? Carefree riding, even on the longest adventures.

The #multistrada1260 #enduro comes in two colours: Sand and #ducati Red.
