Overview[edit | edit source]

Ducati Multistrada Prototype





Launched as a concept machine at the 2001 Milan show, the Multistrada is a unique take on the dual-sport design from Ducati designer Pierre Terblanche. Echoing many of the design cues of Terblanche's earlier MH900 design, the Multistrada is a bold step, marrying roadbike chassis components with the tall seating position and narrow chassis of an off-road styled machine.

The engine is an updated version of the firm's trademark air-cooled 90B V-twin, with two-valve desmodromic heads. The high-performance chassis includes a massive 190-section rear tire, upside-down front forks and rear monoshock.
