Re: Question about 2-up tripping

Agree with above.

We installed the DP Top Case Kit with the Backrest and the Comfort Passenger Seat on our 07 after a few months of using the stock pillion seat and pannier system. With the stock pillion seat, my passengers had a tendency to slide forward when stopping. The Comfort seat is shaped ...

Re: 1st MS test ride yesterday-observations

catneck,
My wife has a 650 Strom and I enjoy riding it a great deal. Very solid, and reliable motorcycle. If you can swing it, keep the Strom and grab a Multi.

If sell it you must, spring is around the corner and the Stroms, especially the 650's are good buys, so there is a future Strom owner out ...

Re: Test Ride #2

IMADUCK/Mike,

I have copied a link from another site with some excellent advice for riding two-up and more specifically, there is information for rider and passenger alike.

I have the DP Saddlebags and Topcase and once the Topcase was installed, my wife had a hard time adjusting to the Topcase ...

Re: Considering a MTS - concern about seat height?

Rich D,

I was in the same boat as you (concerned about the seat height) and at the end of the day, I went with the Multi. I am 5' 8" with a 30” inseam and like a few others here on the forum, have had the ride height raised with no problems.

Get in a demo ride to see for yourself it the fit is ...

Re: 07 1100S - Here's the initial deal, whatcha think?

+ 1 on wait and look elsewhere. Heck, the black sounds like a good deal and having all three bags right off the bat is a nice option to have. I have a red bike but the more see of the black Ducati's, the more I like the look. Good luck in your search. JC

Re: luggage questins from newbie

I'm considering a Multistrada 1100s to replaced my problematic Ulysses. My question is regarding luggage available. The DP bags seem oddly useless thanks to their V shape to me. I use the bike for commuting and need to be able to carry my laptop and stuff for work in them. Is there any other ...

Re: Good deal on 07 1100?

Not saying it can't be so... :stubborn: but that is a super price for an 07 1100 :lol: . He may have been suffering from brain fade and meant 1000DS. :think: Good luck in your Strada Quest.
