LONDON, England- Ducati dealers across Britain and Ireland will this week take delivery of the much-anticipated Multistrada 950, the newest (Jan 2017) model in the Multistrada family,/

“The machine,” Ducat says, “will add accessibility and versatility without losing the renowned Ducati performance.”

The adventure-touring bike has all the features and comfortable ergonomics of the larger Multistrada 1200 and that machine’s agile and manageable dynamic handling but is powered by a 937cc Testastretta engine.

“A 19” front wheel and widely adjustable suspension,” Ducati says, “help over any terrain and its 20 litre fuel tank, panniers and adjustable windshield make it the perfect middleweight Ducati tourer.

“It joins the Multistrada 1200, 1200S and 1200 Enduro.”
