Well I just can't decide if this is the right bike for me. I have test ridden it once and I enjoyed it quit a bit. The main reason I am considering it is that I am hoping that it will give me the confidence to ride not only it but my other bikes better. I hope this makes sence especially to those of you that already own one and might have experienced this. Please any advise is greatly appreciatted!!

My guess is that if you buy it and ride it you will see that the confidence it gives you the other bikes you have will not. Or, what you can do with all your other bikes combined you will do with one bike only. The reason I thing is that Multistrada as its name says is a bike manufactured for many road conditions. It corners with a thought and accelerates very quick, it feels very light and gives you a sence of safety. All in one.

Think

Having had a 916 amongst many other bikes I think why your haunted is that the Multi feels so good, stable, safe and flatters any riding style. I've never ridden a bike like it, that's why I bought one!! I think the others are right saying if you get one you'll not bother with your others!!! Good luck
Cool

I can't seem to get round to ride my other bike - The Multi does it all and it is so easy to ride - Even if the conditions aren't perfect - rain, etc


Does anyone want to buy a Thundercat?
