Pros and Cons in comparison

Ducati Multistrada 1200 S 2013

The Multistrada requires a willingness to compromise, which is often compensated for by the wonderful performance from the 150 hp engine and the exclusive flair that a Ducati spreads. If you are looking for a comfortable sedan for thousands of kilometres on American highways, you should leave the Ducati Multistrada 1200 S alone.

Brutal power delivery - but with adjustment options

inimitable sound

efficient cornering.

Uneven bagging at very low revs - interesting in tight corners

weak rear brake.

Ducati Hyperstrada 2013

The bike is certainly a terrific supermoto with practical use for the city and also for short tours, but on the winding mountain roads in the Alps the bike seems altogether too unbalanced. It is very agile, but almost a little too nervous.

Agile

higher windshield and side stand

spacious panniers

upright seating

good braking system.

Down below, somewhat less sovereign than the predecessor engine

nervous chassis.
