pbbeck Posted November 20, 2007 Share Posted November 20, 2007 Well... I did the deed. This came home with me on Saturday. 2008 Multistrada 1100s I'm still waiting on side cases and hand guards and a Termignoni exhaust, which will all be installed on Saturday when I bring it in for its break-in service. So far, I'm very happy with all the new sensations and the monster power band that stretches from 4K to 9K. Slap on a Zumo and couple of powerlets, and I'm all set. My only complaint is that the bags are not keyed to the ignition. Oh well. More pics are on my web site. Link to comment

Boffin Posted November 20, 2007 Share Posted November 20, 2007 Very nice Paul. I have always loved the look of the unfaired Dukes. The trellis frame and the engine look so good. PS. Don't forget the V1. Andy Link to comment

BereIsland Posted November 20, 2007 Share Posted November 20, 2007 those pipes blow exhaust right up my nostrils Steve You say that like it's a bad thing. I'm in my shed at the moment trying to get the last drop of petrol out of my Ariel's tank so that I can get the rust out and cure a small leak. My daughter walked in and nearly died from the smell of fuel I cant smell a thing. Same with the Strada I suppose, just got to follow it for long enough for the smell to go Link to comment

Joel Posted November 20, 2007 Share Posted November 20, 2007 Nice. Enjoy! If I could buy a bike just for the sound, I'd hafta have a Duc. Our local dealer sells both BMW and Ducati. When I test rode my GS, my wife was waiting out front when I returned to the shop. She loves things with engines more than I do. Just as I removed my helmet, a sales guy fired up a S4R. Heidi's head snapped around to look, and she instantly said "Screw it, get that one!" as she pointed toward the Duc. Link to comment
