thanks TnTimbo - very helpful info

i am leaning towards the 620 but the test drive will be the final step as i have not yet driven the 1000. given what i will be doing with the bike the 620 is probably more than adequate -- mostly buzzing up and down the northern california coast etc.

thanks for the replies folks...keep em coming if others have opinions, this is really helpful.

i am going back and forth but i guess the good news i i can't go wrong either way. i have ridden the 620 so next step is to ride the 1000.

the only issue i had with the 620 was that the engine sounded ...

I have located a new 2006 Multi 1000 DS. can someone tell me what they would consider an "incredible deal" -- the dealer seems very willing to negotiate so i'd like to know what would be a really REALLY good price without being overly aggressive.

I have also been laboring over the 620 vs 1000 ...

yep! thanks again man

wow man, you nailed it for me...they have exactly what i am looking for and at a great price...thanks again

I am looking for a new or slightly used (less than 2000 miles) 2006 Ducati Multistrada 620 dark or black. Ideally with top and/or side bags.

Location not deal breaker but ideally within 500 miles or so of San Francisco

If you have or know of one please email me at talbinson@gmail.com.

Thank you!
