Overview

Introducing the 2016 Ducati Multistrada 1200 Enduro, a remarkable blend of adventure touring and off-road capabilities that redefines the boundaries of versatility. Positioned perfectly in the Enduro-offroad category, this bike caters to those who crave the thrill of exploration, whether on rugged trails or winding asphalt roads. With its striking red finish, the Multistrada 1200 Enduro embodies Ducati’s racing heritage while offering the practicality and comfort needed for long journeys. It’s not just a motorcycle; it’s an invitation to adventure. At the heart of the Multistrada 1200 Enduro lies a powerful 1198.4 cc V2, four-stroke engine that roars to life with an impressive 160 horsepower at 9500 RPM and a robust torque of 136 Nm at 7500 RPM. This engine is not only designed for exhilarating performance but also features a sophisticated Bosch electronic fuel injection system, ensuring smooth power delivery and fuel efficiency at approximately 5.60 liters per 100 km. Riders will appreciate the seamless 6-speed transmission paired with a light-action, wet multiplate clutch that provides effortless shifting, whether navigating city streets or tackling off-road terrain. With a power-to-weight ratio of 0.7111 HP/kg, this motorcycle offers a spirited ride that is both agile and responsive. The Multistrada 1200 Enduro doesn’t skimp on technology and features either. Equipped with Ducati’s innovative Skyhook Suspension (DSS), riders can effortlessly adjust the electronic compression, rebound damping, and spring preload to suit their riding style and road conditions. The fully adjustable Sachs suspension system provides 200 mm of travel both front and rear, enabling smooth handling over rugged landscapes. Safety is paramount, and with ABS-equipped Brembo brakes—double discs at the front and a single disc at the rear—the Multistrada ensures reliable stopping power in all conditions. Additional conveniences, like an adjustable windscreens and a generous fuel capacity of 30 liters, make it an ideal choice for long journeys. **
