2024 Ducati Multistrada V4S Grand Tour Review - The complete Tall Tourer?
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 29 июн 2024
- The 2024 Ducati Multistrada V4S Grand Tour sits at the top of the Italian marques touring line up and offers pretty much everything you will need. Powered by the creamy V4 motor and laden with tech, Ducati say that the Multistrada Grand Tour offers 'First Class' Travel. As you would expect, much like turning left on a plane, that can be an expensive option, and you do need to pay up for the experience with the Grand Tour. But is it money well spent? After a couple of weeks of living with the Grand Tour I try to find out.

Good review. Beautiful bike. Wonderful tech and performance. If I am on a rough road 500 miles from a dealership, I'll take an AT or V-STROM all day long.
Great review Tony, really comprehensive 👍🏻. Now just need to come into a pile of money!
Beautiful bike, my friend owns one and loves it, a great review, the screen adjustment system is brilliant and it was interesting to see how the panniers can flex.
With all that power there's no chance you'll be late to the clinic to drop off those urine samples fixed to the handlebars 😂
😂
?
I like it gonna test ride one this weekend your review was clear and informative. To be fair 2hrs on any bike is enough for me always need a refuel for the bike and a cuppa and a butty on route anyway. I find if your riding in a group your always stopping for the rider with the smallest fuel tank anyway so range is not really a big deal unless your riding solo and not part of a group. I think it’s much better looking than a BMW1300 GS once you start adding the extras on to the BMW GS it will be more expensive than this Ducati anyway.
Many thanks a really useful review 😊
Nice one Tony. What a beautiful bike. I have to admit it’s a better
looking than the GS1300.
It’s a beautiful bike and total weapon on the road. I test rode the V4S last summer and was very tempted but price and insurance cost ultimately got in the way. Living in London without a garage means no insurer would touch it sadly. So to get it I’d have to move house 😢
A great review Tony, if Ducati’s are your bag. A lot of money for a nice bike. Thank you👍
Yes please Tony though I think only a Lottery win will buy one, keep up the good work 😊
For the price of one V4GT. I'd rather have a 1260S/GT and have a tuono v4 1100 Factory alongside it.
Great review Tony. i do like the look of the bike, lets face it when comes to adventure bikes, the multistrada is the supemodel. I guess the fuel consumption isnt such an issue on models like the Pikes Peak but on the Grand Tour? That said, youre probably ready for a break anyway and sitting with a coffee and looking at your Ducati isnt going to be to much of a chore is it.
Would be cool if you could also review the Multi RS at some point. I'm picking mine up tomorrow
Great review. A lovely bike if you can afford to buy and run it. Personally my KTM Super Adventure S does the same job and it does 50 mpg minimum so thats my choice.👍
Lovely bike.
It's the Ducati Italian 1300GS and that's the question, BMW or Ducati? I just don't know which one I'd pick. I love both of them....
Great review. A whole world of money and for that you get 2 cheap plastic pots for brake and clutch fluid...I'd have expected a more integrated design at least for £24k.
To be honest that has never really bothered me
Nice review Tony. I test rode the previous model and (price aside) thought it was an amazing engine but for touring was put off by the woeful mpg.....also did find the engine gave a lot of heat compared to the competition. If someone wants a sports bike with adventure seating (and has deep pockets) it's not a bad choice..... but as adventure bikes go I think there are better all round options
No problem with the heat thanks to the wings on the side
great review tony nice bike but what a price
Great review Tony. Personally I don’t think the bike makes much sense as a tourer, with mid 30s mpg.
I loved my 2010 Multistrada 1200 and rode it to the demo ride of the V4 when released. While the V4 was much smoother and had some more modern features, the 1200 felt smaller, and looked like a much prettier bike parked side by side. As it is, the price has crept to crazy levels, and the fuel range of the standard bike at least, is terrible. The Tiger 1200 looks like a better overall balance in most areas to me, at least at this point.
Seats are subjective, though I've replaced the seats on the motorcycles I've owned for any length of time. Fuel mileage sounds decent, given the size of the engine. I toured and commuted on my ST3 until it hit 125k miles, so reliability on a newer Ducati like this wouldn't worry me either. I already went a different direction, but a multi similar to this was on my shortlist.
They missed a big trick with the grand tourer, they should have put the bigger tank and rear cylinder cut off like the rally
The small tank put me off, but this & the rs could change my mind. But i really really do luv my ktm. & i have no more room in my garage. 😢
OMG, if there was ever a bike to replace my Tiger 1050 Sport this is it…. The stance is perfect…. Your review is compelling…. But…. The price…. I don’t mind paying for a brand as long as it is reasonable but this is too much.. Damn !
Nice bike, might get one.
I was told that its impossible to get one this year.
Interesting cornering lights 🤔
They work pretty well too
I want a tourer, but not at that price. I'll wait for the new 1390SAS, it'll have all the same gizmos, but none of the drawbacks you mentioned (except perhaps the seat, KTM can't make a comfy seat either).
Its very good, but its also a hard price to swallow.
Wow.
Yes, but if that's your thing is ut worth the extra over something like the new GSX1000 with panniers, Suzuki's tall rounder?
Thats an awful lot of drinking vouchers.
Not my thing but that doesn't mean that I can't appreciate it for what ut is.
Something for everyone.
Ride safe 👍
Friend of mine (traded in his BMW GSA) bought one a few weeks ago. He's digging' it.
19 liters not 22 liter
No, this bike has a 22 litre tank.
@@mancavemoto Just drive it empty, it won't hold 22 liters, there is still a fuel pump in it
And horrible combination of Ducati Connect and Sygic. Crap software that is just atrocious and not worthy of a 30k+ bike.
And was does Ducati do to solve it you ask?? N O T H I N G !
