What was the on road price and ho many days was it from booking to delivery?

Congrats again and you keeping the fatboy as well?

Yes Raj - it is the S with Skyhook! :-) and No - Not keeping the Fatboy - 2 legends can't co-exist in one stable.

I am an ADV tourer enthusiast and this is one ADV tourer which has made a mark for itself in the ADV touring circuit with its bucket load of gadgetry, features and not to mentioned those drop dead gorgeous(Italian for sure) looks. Look at it from any angle and it screams Made in Italy!

Some of the features I can think of:

• Seat height of 33 inches which is comfortable unlike some of its ADV tourer counterparts.
• Decent fuel tank capacity of 20 litres.
• Top notch Pirelli tyres if I am not wrong
• Brembo brakes with ABS
• Adjustable front and rear suspension with active suspension technology
• More than enough 150 BHP with powerful 118 NM of Torque
• Traction control with slipper clutch and ride by wire technology
• Awesome bang for buck

Also I think you are a fan of V twin motors eh! first the HD Sportster, then the Fatboy and now the Multistrada. Eagerly awaiting your ownership thread.

Ride Safe, Ride Hard and Ride Proud.

Thanks Navin! You are right on all fronts. Including me being a fan of V twins

Cant wait to lay my hands on it!

Veera Sir has a 2015 Triumph Tiger XCx IIRC.

Your Multistrada will have a great time with another globetrotter I am sure !

Congrats Shubz, I am very interested in knowing the media configuration and Ducati mobile app information, the last time I checked the mobile app was quite ready, hoping its now might be ready and would be providing all the ride and other information on mobile app.

Congrats Shubz, That's one gorgeous bike. Those mobile pictures do not do justice at all. Please take good pictures in broad daylight and share it soon

Hope you will find your true love in this bike and keep it for the longest

Also, look forward to your ownership report to know everything about this bike

So what trips planned in 2016?

Tried pairing the bluetooth to the Ducati Multistrada Link app on the iphone. Wasn't quite successful. Will try again sometime soon again.

Avi -- Thanks much sir. The mobile pics were taken in low light. There are some good pics taken by the iP6 where the quality is very good. shall post it up on my ownership thread. Dread to open the Ownership Thread as it takes quite an effort at coining the entire saga.. Lol.
Yes Hoping to find the true love with this bike and keep it for the longest (like the Duke)
Trips planned (at least in planning state) - Goa, Kanyakumari, Rameshwaram, Hyderabad, Pune before the rains start.
