Our take on this /// Verdict
The Ducati Multistrada 1200S is a powerhouse of a motorcycle that excels in various aspects, making it a versatile and appealing choice for riders in India. Its Desmodromic Variable Timing (DVT) engine delivers a raw and ferocious performance, with 160 HP and 136 NM of torque, providing an exhilarating ride whether on highways or off-road trails. The bikes semi-active Skyhook suspension is a standout feature, adapting to terrain changes seamlessly to ensure a comfortable and stable ride. The four riding modes Sport, Touring, Urban, and Enduro along with customizable settings for ABS, DTC, and DWC, allow riders to tailor the bikes behavior to their preferences and riding conditions. However, the bikes low-speed driveability can be a bit snatchy, and the high maintenance costs, particularly for desmo services and spare parts, are significant considerations. Despite these, the Multistrada 1200S offers an unparalleled riding experience that justifies its premium tag.
Price
In India, the Ducati Multistrada 1200S comes with a substantial price tag. The ex-showroom price can range from around 18 lakh to 20 lakh, depending on the specific variant and any customizations. Once you factor in on-road costs, including registration, insurance, and other taxes, the price can easily exceed 22 lakh to 25 lakh. While this is certainly on the higher side, the advanced technology, superior performance, and premium build quality of the Multistrada 1200S make it a worthwhile investment for serious motorcycle enthusiasts. However, the cost of spares and maintenance, especially given the shorter service intervals in Indian conditions, is something potential buyers should carefully consider.
