Falco to Multistrada...... Maybe   Posted: Tue Aug 03, 2004 12:39 am   
I have a new Tuono, as well as the Multi. I really like both bikes, but if i could only have one it would be the Multi, hands down, no question. Put 12k on the Multi (12 mo) and 4k on the Tuono (4 mo) ...

Why a Multistrada   Posted: Thu May 20, 2004 3:58 am   
BB

I had a Sv 650 before the Multi.

Currently i have a Multi, an Aprilia Tuono, 748, RoadKing and a Silverwing.

Comparing the Multi to the Tuono (not sure how close that is to a capanord) is ...

Speed Triple Vs Multistrada   Posted: Tue May 11, 2004 2:30 am   
I looked at the Triple very seriously before getting the multi. It is a great machine with a lot going for it. In the the end, I liked the looks and nimbleness of the multi. I recently purchased a ne ...

dirty ability of the MS   Posted: Wed May 05, 2004 3:51 am   
The most recent Sportbike does a comparo of Multi and 3 others.

They say the Multi is quite good on dirt roads! Laughing

I would give some quotes but I just peruse the mags at the local Borders, ...

Multistrada handling/performance on track?   Posted: Sat Jan 17, 2004 12:42 pm   
I had thought that perhaps I could take off the exhaust heat shield, as that is what seem to scrape on the track (or leaning hard to the right). It doesn't really seem that necessary (I wear boots) ?? ...

Multistrada handling/performance on track?   Posted: Fri Jan 16, 2004 7:29 pm   
my opinion would be that a less experienced track rider would do better on a MS than a more race orientated bike and rider. And it depends on the track, - my 916 is damn hard work to get quickly aroun ...

Multistrada handling/performance on track?   Posted: Fri Jan 16, 2004 6:33 am   
PeGe, I have a MS as well as a 748. i actually got the 748, primarily for track use, after I got the MS. I would rate myself as a resonably good rider, 40 years experience, lots of track time in Porsc ...

Cost of Ownership.   Posted: Mon Nov 17, 2003 12:57 am   
The dealer where i purchased sells both the ducati and aprilia. They said the scheduled maintenance on the Tuono was higher. They quoted 6000mle service at $450 (they have a local reputation as somewh ...

multi vs. aprilia tuono mille   Posted: Sun Nov 16, 2003 10:39 pm   
I looked at the Tuono briefly. Its not really comparable though. Its a naked bike with a water cooled engine. Its also very prone to wheelies, at least based on 2nd hand info. Didn't really appeal to ...
