Introduced in 2003, the Ducati Multistrada redefined the upright sport-touring category. The original Pierre Terblanche-designed 1000DS, with its air-cooled Desmodue engine and polarizing looks, established the bike's 'four bikes in one' concept. In 2010, the model transformed with the liquid-cooled Testastretta 11° engine in the Multistrada 1200, adding ride-by-wire, traction control, and electronic suspension options. This solidified its reputation as a superbike on stilts, capable of commuting, touring, and aggressive canyon carving.
The Multistrada's appeal lies in its extreme versatility without sacrificing Ducati's signature performance and character. Collectors seek out special variants like the Pikes Peak editions for their premium components and race-inspired liveries. Early Terblanche models are gaining appreciation for their unique design, while the 1200 and 1260 models are popular for their blend of modern technology and accessible performance. The latest V4-powered bikes represent the pinnacle of the family, pushing power and tech to new heights.
The market for the Multistrada is broad, with an average sale price around $11,000. This price point typically captures well-maintained second-generation (1200) and third-generation (1260) bikes. The earliest air-cooled models are the most affordable entry, while late-model V4 S and Pikes Peak editions command the highest prices, often exceeding $20,000.
Buying Tips
- Verify the Desmo valve service history. It's a critical and expensive maintenance item with intervals ranging from 7,500 to 36,000 miles depending on the engine.
- On 2010 and newer models, test all electronic systems. Ensure the rider modes, electronic Skyhook suspension, and keyless ignition function correctly, as diagnostics can be costly.
- Inspect the trellis frame and swingarm carefully for cracks or signs of repair from crash damage. Check fork seals for any leaks.
- Research model-year specific issues. Early 1000DS models can have fuel tank deformities, while first-year 1200s had some electronic gremlins.
- Factor in the cost of consumables like tires, chain, and sprockets. Factory panniers and quality aftermarket accessories add significant value.
Based on 42 sales, prices range from $3,700 for early models to $22,253 for recent, top-spec variants.
