Overview
The Ducati Multistrada 1260 is an adventure motorcycle, and this page covers its 2019 and 2020 annual profiles. For 2020, it has a naturally aspirated 1,262 cm³ liquid-cooled V-twin four-stroke engine producing 156 hp (116 kW) and 129.5 Nm of torque at 7,500 rpm; wet weight is 232 kg.
The torque peak arrives at 7,500 rpm, so the engine needs to be revved to deliver its strongest pull. The 825 mm seat height affects how easily a rider can reach the ground, while the 232 kg wet weight calls for more effort when maneuvering slowly. Fuel consumption of 5.2 L/100 km and a 20 L tank give a calculated full-tank range of about 385 km. Fully adjustable suspension, ABS on both ends, and a slipper clutch add control over varied surfaces and during hard downshifts.

Pros and cons
Advantages
Adjustable suspension
Fully adjustable forks and rear suspension, with remote spring preload adjustment, let riders adapt the setup to changing loads and road conditions.
ABS at both ends
ABS on the front and rear brakes helps limit wheel lock during braking.
Slipper clutch
The slipper action helps calm the rear wheel during hard downshifts.
Things to consider
Weight at low speed
At 232 kg wet, the Multistrada takes more effort to maneuver in tight spaces or at walking pace.
Seat height
The 825 mm seat can make it harder for shorter riders to place their feet securely on the ground.
Chain final drive
The chain needs periodic cleaning and adjustment.
