OC: Buy a used one in a couple years! I say you pick up a Multistrada at MotoCorsa in Portland and then ride the coast all the way to Ducati NA in Sunnyvale.

I had the last model and the suspension would adjust based on speed. Super soft at low speed then firm up as the speed increased. Awesome bike.

Instead of the 40-80, how about a safe and responsible 70-140? sounds good to me

This is my first Ducati. Primarily owned and raced sports bikes, my last one being a 2000 Honda RC51. Never been an iron butt rider, but done some medium travel on the RC torture seat after putting back on all of the street gear. Moved to electric, purchased a used 2017 Zero DSR, and really enjoyed it. Amassed a few thousand miles in 19 months. Waited to see what Zero would release with their current DSR/X. Looked at the Energica Experia too. Each of those bikes is around the same price as the MS V4S. When I compared the features of the MS V4S to both the Energica and Zero there is NO COMPARISON. As an ex-road racer, I'm a real bitch about suspension, brakes, and tire pressure. Being able to adjust suspension WITH AN EFFING JOYSTICK on the fly is mind-bending to me. The only adjustment on suspension that requires a wrench is the front fork preload on the right fork leg top. Like you I was a bit nervous about the adaptive cruise control. First, because I've never owned a bike with any cruise control let alone adaptive that uses radar. I'm getting use to it, but it still freaks me out a bit even if it works well. The blind spot radar should now be required on ALL MOTORCYCLES. Yes I still head check, but man since the rear radar contemplates how fast an approaching vehicle is traveling it's really great. I feel the blind spot radar is 'adaptive' based on how it contemplates a vehicle's approaching speed. Yep 25k is a ton of money. But then again so is 6+ a gallon here in the SF Bay Area. Worked my entire life to put two kids through college and save my pennies for the future. Well the future is now so I figured WTF am I waiting for? Lucked out and bought the dealer's demo 2022 MS V4S Sport that has a cool color scheme too; black/red/white with a carbon front fender and Akropovic slip on exhaust as standard on that model. She's a heavy girl for sure and since I'm 5-8 with a 30" inseam I bought the lower seat which works well. Pushing the suspension button to set the rear preload to MIIN is great. Can disengage it by pushing it again or when the bike goes over 70MPH. I write for Web Bike World and will be doing a full written review for them. I want to clock at least 1k miles before doing so. There is SO MUCH to cover on an actual owner's review, but I feel it will help others. One thing I hate? The Ducati Connect app combined with the Sygic navigation POS. I vote for Ducati to loan you a bike you can take on a 2 thousand mile trip! I named my bike Joy. I'm sure you know why.

Love your honest and playful way of reviewing motorcycles. I can afford having a motorcycle yet, so seeing your videos is so far my way to enjoy it. Please keep making them.

Trip: North Georgia mountains, Blueridge Parkway to Mt. Washington, NH with Vermont scenery. Twisties, straights, and everything in between…” many roads!”

A rider in your Georgia area probably has the most miles on MS V4, he tour all over the country with no issues. Ducati do not lend high cost bikes for long-term review in this current market. Awesome review 👍🏽

Never heard of the model the driver was talking about. The bike that saved Ducati was the Monster. The success of that model gave them the resources to develop the post 916 Superbikes, Hypermotards, and the 1st gen. Multistrada.

Another cool feature those bikes have is blind spot monitoring in the mirrors

It just bought a 2022 from MMS in Roswell. It's incredible. Great service from their entire team. Will have the 621 miles for first service completed within a few more days. I had a BMW s1000XR a few years ago and the Multi V4S should be compared to that and not the BMW r1250gs imo. The multi very much has the panigale on stilts with comfort and touring features feeling. thats how the XR felt too. the only demerit for me about the otherwise incredible MSV4S is it's HORRIBLE gas mileage. But it's a Ducati, so its nice to get off every 150 miles or so to cool off anyway.

OC Chase, you can trade in your MT 10 as a down payment on the multi-Strada

Man, i love your videos. Im going to own a bike someday and your vids steered me from cafe racers to big bikes.

Right hand grip will be warmer because you don't take that hand of the grip when riding. When you take your hand off the grips are cooled by the air flowing over them.

Must be one of the best bikes currently in production. Definitely top 3 if not pole position. With tech and price to match of course...

My plan this winter is to get a multistrada… but before it leaves the building it’s getting the racing exhaust installed

The longer engine service interval is down to a different valve train.

Had to get one. Traded in my 2010 Multistrada 1200S Touring with over 50K miles for a new Aviator Gray V4S Multi. Loved my old Multi. Love key new one too. Can’t wait until spring.

Had a Streetfighter V4 for the passed three years love it to bits looking at the Multistrata V4 for more touring wish I could afford both what a pair they would make

I have a 950s multi, i can say i'm glad i did not ride the v4 before i rode the 950s....i'd be in wayyyy more debt than i am now...although i did get a helluva deal on my 950....i love the the skyhook suspension, it works great......

You need to compare that with the KTM 1290 SAS

Im surprised no manufacturer has made shifting electric ya know via a servo motor kinda thing so the shift lever rather than being mechanical would be a switch and then of course that entirely opens the door the the cpu shifitng the bike also for an auto mode...I mean i know there is already dual clutch but those add a lot more weight than 2 pound servo motor....my Yammie T9GT has a tiny short shift lever which actually pains my toes to upshift Yamaha moved the motor further up and rotated it for improved handling and that is just what they had left to work with....but I mean with a servo shift the cpu could even auto find nuetral whenever bike comes to a halt for more than so many seconds (would be adjustable of course) A bike like Multi Strada would be the duhh first bike to see that on too!

OC: For what you're paying it absolutely delivers what you want. But for like 26k I think I'd definitely get a different Ducati like a Panigale. Then complain that it runs hot. But for touring it's gotta be damn near impossible to beat.

actually, the reason why the bike has such a long service interval because it doesn't have desmodromic valves... compare to the rest of the Ducati engines

Take the multistrada up the mountains in Colorado. Haha!

27:00 basically they pulled a Honda. Underrate a high powered motor to keep it well under operational extremes.

I’d be happy with my MT-09 and a Tracer 9 GT. I’m a Yamaha fan boy and like spending little money for stuff most spend a lot to get.

Need some two up rides on these type of bikes.

"1260 pikes peak is the first multistrada I've ever ridden" *Sad multistrada enduro noises*

Atlanta to Beartooth Highway by way of Colorado Utah and Yellowstone

I think I’ll stick with the triumph tiger 900 gt pro.

Nice vid Chase, please do a first ride / review on the 950 or V2 S as well

i love your reviews. Spot on again thanks

OC: Life is short… get the dang bike 😉

OC Get Ducati to let you take one to San Diego CA and back. The scenery through Arizona is awesome.

You went from 2 to 4 cylinders with the same displacement and don’t understand why torque went down. Simple lesson - the longer the stroke, the longer that lever on the crank, the more torque it can make - conversely - the further it has to travel, so the more difficulty for it to rev high. Short fat cylinders, short distance to travel, rev sky high, make buzy horsepower. Long skinny - the opposite.

Bro, You should try the BMW s1000xr 2020 and up. It’s waaay better than it’s predecessor..

Love the Brian Cameo at 1:37

The irony of heated seats on a ducati has me chuckling after watching the V4 R first ride

What ever happened to yummir6

My S1000 hates Neutral, i apply pressure when im coming to a stop so when the bike isnt moving it just slides into neutral smoothly

I dont have a motorcycle license or the money to buy this but this video makes me want one :)

I love watching chase simp over a multistrada.

Great video, good job!

OC Would love to see you do a cross country ride out here to Texas with a side trip through the mountains obviously, to meet up with Jake and Motonosity then you guys could continue out in the hill country of Texas.

A million subs and sponsorships, you can totally afford a multistrada v4. Quit playing 😉

Can you please do a full review of the Forcite helmet? I've been waiting to see how it went

cant wait till u get to ride the pikes peak v4

Everybody is in love with this V4 if not Superduke GT, so finally a GS killer?

hey, can you do a first ride ep. on the new Ducati Streetfighter V2 when you get your hands on one? much appreciated :)

Pikes peak would you also tour also long distance

Hey Chase! I hope Mountain Motorsport has an Aprilia RS660 so you can do a first ride one it

OC: cross country road trip. But holy cow, for $25K, get a truck, trailer and a Tuono or Trident 😳😆

Chase- great review. I had the same experience. Jumped on a 2014 multi for a test ride when my buddy was looking for his next bike and it ruined me anything else. Picked up a low miles 2014 multi this spring and put 4K miles on it this summer. The perfect bike and the early skyhook models can be picked up under $10k.

Chase - thx love ur first rides =)

Hoping you can review the new Aprilia Tuono V4 Base model to compare the two.

You need to try the new Super Duke 1290 GT and BMW S1000XR

Top optioned out BMW XR1000 hits $22,000. So the Ducati is $3,000 more! Sounds too high a price to me. I mean think about it. Paying 50% of a high end SUV! For a production bike. Not cool. Shame on Ducati. Previous Multistrada have all not sold for listing prices. Plus its not a Vtwin or a Desmo bike. Non Desmo Ducati’s have historically been the cheaper bikes. Horsepower is not everything.

Go ride the 950s, curious if the multistrada love translates to the baby one

Perfect movie, thanks. What is this music under the beginong od movie pictures?

“What deal with the devil has Ducati done for this bike to be so good?” Audi. They got bought by VW/Audi. Italian passion/design with German engineering.

How dare you Chase, now I want one 👍❤️

Please tell us if the bike is thirsty or not next time you do the first ride because we do take it into a consideration when buying a bike…

OC Been binging your First Rides...I dont even own or know how to ride Motorcycles... I want to but Im broke :{ ... I guess I just watch to experience it XD

Pitch an Iron Butt challenge on Multistrada to Ducati. 👌🏾

Chase did you like this better than the 1260s which you claimed to be your favourite bike / best production motorcycle at the time of riding ?

Great video, question you said that 1260 Multistrada is the best, know you said the V4 Multistrada is the best also, so which one do you pick?

OC Yes Chase, definitely you can have a Multistrada. Trade your MT10 in. Since you've somehow turned that bike into a "Dad Bike", why not go on a "Full-on Dad Bike" LOL. Joking aside, you are much likely more capable to have one than most of us ChaseonTwoWheels subscribers. With a KZfaq channel that big, I doubt you can't afford one.

Savanna Georgia to Vancouver Washington

Messed up that one again. That not how you start a ducati with keyless go! Leave the damn switch in the on position and never touch it. That's the emergency start incase you lose your key. Turn it on using th lock button on the right side toggle. Then press power. SIMPLE! Don't know how you've been doing this wrong for so long and haven't figured it out yet. It's not designed to be complicated like you think. It's actually really easy to use.

Nice bike but still like my 1260S

Can you do the Mc agusta Veloce raptor.

Ask them for the new pikes peake V4 👍😊🇬🇧

A V4 in an ADV bike. Seems crazy on paper, but I'm glad it exists.

Well do e Chase once again I told you before the Multi is addictive. I've had 2 and trying my best not to ride the V4s. Damnit and here you go. I guess I'll schedule the ride next weekend @Roswell MM and POSSIBLY trade my 2017 1200S tour Multi. Thanks Chase

Didn’t see him change to 6th gear, despite sitting at a steady 95mph! I wouldn’t do that if it was my $25k!!

How is the handle bar vibration in higher speeds?

Honda NT 1100 makes more sense if you want a dad bike. I think it looks better.

Honda has a prototype self balancing motorcycle.

You are gonna end up buying it 😏

Never tried the photo on Instagram, don't know why (Ha Ha). But, your reviews are great. I can't afford a Multistrada either. I'd much rather a MT09 anyway. 'Orses for courses, innit?!

I feel ya…test rode one back in April…now every bike feels like crap…haha!

oc most definitely from georgia to California and maybe a good used one lol

Seems like a generally smoother ride than the 1260. How did the acceleration compare to the 1260 pikes peak? To be honest, your pikes peak video helped me go ducati enduro 1260 over the triumph or bmw equivalents. Wondering if I’m missing anything by not waiting until the MTS v4. Break it to me gently…

from the side the front end looks like a NBA or college basketball mascott...

OC! save more money and sell the mt10! I can feel that you love the multi way more than your yamaha

I wonder who would be able to fix it if it breaks down in a remote part of Africa, with so much technology.

When you drop or crash this bike , good luck with the bill from the dealership $$$$$$$$$$🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸

Well, it does not have the lifetime diamond chain, gotta go bmw for that.

Who's been subbed since chasein3D 😎

Multis have ruined sport bikes for me. I'm not any slower on any of my fast back roads, and the thing will do STATES at a time in complete comfort.

Great

Nice

Woah

Do u still hang out will yummi

👏👏👍👍✌✌

Your videos are high production quality and quite engaging but super-long for 2021 attention span standards. Consider making them shorter, more condensed, straight to the point.

OC

It genuinely does my head in when I see ratings for a bike at the beginning of a review. Why do you do that? May as well switch off as soon as they appear. It's a bit like watching a trailer for a movie that gives to much away so you don't bother to go to watch it. Stop it, please. Ride safely.

Unpopular openion.... Ducatis do look that great as people say 🙄🙄 and does not sound that good. Hit me now 🤣🤣

20 grand gets you a whole lot of ugly
