It's difficult to put a finite figure on chain mileage

A bike that only gets ridden in the dry and has the chain lubed every ride and is not wheelied, may get 30,000 from a chain

A bike thats commuted on, ridden in all weathers and the throttle in not spared, will do half that

I always look to ...

My 2004 is for sale, same colour but with less miles (about half)

Gel seat, hand gaurds, hugger, front mudguard extender, double bubble Zero Gravity screen

Does not need belts for another year, will have a years MOT when I get around to MOT ...

So the stroke is the same and the barrel and piston are larger

What about the head? is that the same?

Is it possible to make a 1000DS into an 1100DS just be swopping barrels and pistons?

I have a centrestand that is currently with another forum member who is getting some CAD drawings done

Watch this space.....

Sorry about that, new to here.

I'm in the US.

Based on my reading of the court docs, I had to be the owner of the bike as of Jan 16 2012 for my bike to be included. Or am I missing something (happens often enough).

I cannot get that bike off my mind. Perfect fit, tons of power, smooth as silk ...

Thanks, everyone, for all the really helpful info on here.

I just finished test-riding a '09 1100s, and man what a hoot that bike was. It is just a wonderful piece of equipment, and fits like it was made for me. I didn't see any evidence of fuel leaking, tank cracking or fork seals leaking.

My 04 Multistrada has proved more reliable than my 04 Caponord

The Caponord needed stuff rectifying that the factory built in, the Ducati has had to have nothing......

Perhaps a bit unfair on the Aprilia, it was a good bike, but the Ducati has more "soul"

I think that Scorpio Electronics in the UK can sort the back light issue's

But check first!

My multi didn't make it there and I went had to return home for another bike. I was so disappointed abt not having my multi to ride. Then the recovery man reminded me that I have had 31500 miles of reliability! He said it's rare he picks up ducats but every weekend he picks up BMW/ hondas and ...

Taking all the obvious reasons why you would by a MTS against a GS, just looks alone. But, I am in a dilemma, do I go for something that really is proven on miles over many yrs but isnt as pretty or will Ducati provide me with 4-5 yrs or more, of reliable and not overley expensive servicing as it ...

Yup, the more I think about this the above is good advice

A Multistrada 100/1100 is exactly what you need to get the Ducati experience

You may find you don't want or need any other bike

Under normal "rules", I would say no, get something in-between the two extremes and learn to ride with about 100BHP, a classic 1100/1000 Multistrada perhaps

But then the 1200 has 3 x power modes, and maybe you could enter the big bike world and leave the switch in its lowest power setting and put a ...

Why not a Multistrada 1000 or 1100?
