Best For	Best suited to intermediate and experienced riders who appreciate a torquey V-twin with sharp Ohlins-equipped handling.
Purpose	Designed as a sport-touring all-rounder that blends long-distance comfort with genuine backroad agility.
Rider Fit	A moderate 850mm seat height and manageable dry weight around 196kg make it accessible to most rider statures, though the tall stance and adventure-styled ergonomics suit taller riders best.
Character	Has the raw, mechanical character typical of a Desmodromic Ducati V-twin, delivering strong midrange torque with an engaging, slightly rugged personality.
Not Ideal For	Not ideal for riders seeking serious offroad capability or a plush, softly damped cruiser-style ride.

Units

Calculated in your browser only - your height/inseam are never sent to our servers.

Feet:

At 850mm, a rider of 175cm with a 79cm (estimated) inseam will reach the ground with tip-toe one foot on the 2006 Ducati Multistada 1000S DS, with a cramped knee angle of around 75 degrees and a forward-leaning riding position.

Data quality: measured. Assumes about 30mm of suspension sag once seated (a typical street-bike rule of thumb - stiffer or softer suspension will vary). This is an approximation from category-typical geometry and generic body proportions, not a measurement of this specific bike or you - sit on it before you buy.
