Hi all, i've never owned a Ducati, but that might change next year :smile: Had an RSV mille up until 18 months ago when i binned it, so took some time out to get my head together and now i'm ready to get back on the road again. I saw a multi-strada 1200 yesterday in a local shop and absolutely fell in love with it .. also drooled over a Hypermotard 1100 at Squires cafe today which was a real beauty, but i reckon the multi would be the better bike for me. Hopefully will be searching/asking some advice on here when the time comes
Hi Sprocker and welcome. If I were you I'd try them both out, but from what I read on here the Multi does just about everything so an awful lot of folk end up going down that route. I want a Multi but unless I win the lottery it won't happen!
And thanks for the welcome...I'll probably go the Multi route as i'll be taking pillions and i think the hyper might be too hooligan, and too tempting to make me a hooligan lol
Welcome Sprocker. THE MULTI CAN DO HOOLIGAN TOO IF YOU WANT IT TO!!! I visited Squires for the first time last July on my way from a mate in Leyland across for the ferry in Hull. Good bike meeting place but normally a bit too far for me. Loomies, Box Hill, Ace Cafe and Newlands Corner are my local meeting places.
Hiya :smile: we often go to Squires nice place have a cuppa and bike watch, hope to see you there sometime!
Welcome in to the forum :smile: both great bikes to have the choice of, just ride both and see which takes your fancy. You can't go far wrong with either.
i still have my Aprilia rsv mille 02 model. I have gone the other way. I have owned quite a few Ducati's in the past. Great bikes. my last was a ST3S, but i missed the sports bike. so i purchased an aprilia, great bike. If i had the money the Multi is a great bike, 3 bikes in 1. Its the cost with me. 3 kids and a expensive wife.
I loved my 2000 plate mille, The faster Yellow one my first V-twin and I was hooked <3 The Multi looks fab, and for taking a pillion i reckon it would suit better ? And kids n wife will mean i'll be going the S/H route too =)
Two years on and still not got one ! Just been through a divorce, hence the delay, but once the house is sold and my finances are freed up i'll be good to go. I'm booked in for a demo ride tomorrow I took an Aprilia Caponord out last month for a demo and really liked that, so hoping the MTS surpasses expectations as i like the look of the Duc better.
