About the Ducati Multistrada 1200

Overview

The Ducati Multistrada 1200 is a motorcycle from Ducati. It has been discontinued. Mechiee still services it at your doorstep. With a 1,198 cc engine it sits in the big-bike, 800 cc-plus class.

Engine and performance

Power comes from a 1,198 cc liquid-cooled engine that makes 157.8 bhp at 9,500 rpm and 136 Nm of torque at 7,500 rpm. Divide power by kerb weight and it has about 690 PS per tonne; by that measure, its performance is at superbike level and rewards an experienced rider.

Gearbox

It has a 6-speed manual gearbox.

Chassis, brakes and tyres

It is built around a tubular steel trellis frame. Suspension is by 48 mm fully adjustable usd forks at the front and fully adjustable sachs monoshock unit at the rear. Braking is by a disc at the front and a disc at the rear.

Size, comfort and range

The seat is 845 mm off the ground, which is on the tall side, so shorter riders may want to try it first. It weighs 232 kg ready to ride, which is heavy, so parking and tight U-turns need care. The wheelbase is 1,529 mm. It carries 20 L of fuel.

Owning one

For the Ducati Multistrada 1200, Mechiee offers a fixed ₹24,999 doorstep service.

Who it suits

Its tall seat suits taller riders best. With this much performance, it is better as a step-up bike than a first bike.

Maintaining the Ducati Multistrada 1200

  • Routine servicing

    Follow the schedule in the owner's manual for your exact variant and year. A regular service is the cheapest way to catch small problems before they become expensive ones.

  • Engine oil & filter

    Engine oil is the single most important consumable to keep fresh. Top up between services if the level drops, and change it on schedule.

  • Brake inspection

    With Disc and Disc brakes, check pad or shoe wear, lever and pedal free play, and braking feel at every service.

  • Chain cleaning & lubrication

    A clean, correctly tensioned and lubricated chain lasts longer and wastes less power. Check slack regularly, especially after riding in rain or dust.

  • Coolant & cooling system

    A liquid-cooled engine relies on coolant. Check the level and look over hoses and the radiator for leaks or damage, and replace coolant as the owner's manual directs.

  • Air filter & spark plug

    A clogged air filter or worn spark plug shows up as hard starting, weak throttle response and poorer fuel economy. Both are checked at a regular service and replaced when worn.

  • Disc brake fluid

    Brake fluid absorbs moisture over time, which lowers its boiling point. Have its level and condition checked and change it on the interval in the owner's manual.

  • Tyre inspection

    Check pressure, tread depth and sidewalls, and replace tyres that are worn or cracked.

  • Battery & electricals

    The battery is listed as Maintenance Free. Weak starting, dim lights or a flickering console are early signs the battery or charging system needs a look.

Ducati Multistrada 1200 specs explained

What the technical terms on this page mean.

Liquid cooling
Coolant circulates through the engine and a radiator, keeping temperatures steadier than air alone, especially in traffic or under load.
Monoshock
A single rear shock absorber that does the work of a pair.
Upside-down fork
A front fork mounted the opposite way round to a conventional one, with the thicker tubes at the top. It is typically stiffer under braking and cornering.
Trellis frame
A frame built from tubes arranged in triangles, which gives strength without much weight.
Tubeless tyres
Tyres with no inner tube. A small puncture usually loses air slowly, which makes roadside repair easier.
Kerb weight
The weight of the bike ready to ride, with its fluids and fuel, but without a rider or luggage.
