Just blogged the spring upgrade to my Mutley suspension. Ohlins semi-active SCU on order too. European Motorcycle Diaries: Ducati Multistrada 1200S suspension spring upgrade RIDE UPDATE: Well on a pre-load setting of 2, the bike feels exactly like it did on the old spring at 6 (kind of...

So I have the base model and am looking at doing some ohlins cartridge inserts and a new shock, has anyone done this upgrade yet? I'm looking at k tech and some others but ohlins seems the best bet for me, I do quite a few track days and some street riding also. Just curious to see if anyone has...

Good Morning, So while riding the Panigale the other day I started to think about how much throttle turn this thing has and reminded me of how my ZX-10 (cable throttle) use to have the same issue. The Ninja guys have a handy little "upgrade" which drastically decreases that travel which made...

Have a 2012 Base 1199. is there an ABS kit that can be retrofitted to a base unit? Car short stopped and had grab a lot of brake today up on front wheel a few times.. bouncing rear wheel coming to a stop! ouch the jewels....

I am considering on upgrading the 1199s w/abs (Full termi exhaust and stock gearing) to the 1199R.. I have not pulled the trigger on the purchase yet but in the process... My background is not that technical as my riding style is back road street riding. I generally utilize the full hp and...

Fix the Rearsets perfectly smooth now.thanks Claudio!

Just came from Dealer where I was quoted roughly $220 for both pieces plus labor. A new upmap will be neccessary.At the same time I will get a new rear OEM tire at a competitive price. As soon as I put a few miles on her I will post my feedback.

The stock seat on the 1199 is pretty uncomfortable. I've seen the "comfort seat" available for purchase on the internet but I've heard it makes the rider sit a bit higher on the bike. I'm a shorter guy so when I stop i'm pretty much on my tip toes as it is. Anyone have any input on this or have...

Hi there I know Andy1199 has (already) upgraded his bike's chain. Anyone else planning on doing this? Is it a worthwhile upgrade? Perhaps coupled with a rear sprocket change? Advice/opinions please.

Hi guys, thanks for having me. Have always loved Ducs and finally got my hands on one in '07 which was an '03 999. That same summer I got rid of that and got a new left over '06 ;-). Added a great deal of upgrades and loved it. Wasnt a big fan of the 1098 design, that it looked too honda like...

So I visited the Cleveland IMS show and saw the 1199 in person. I do really like the bike. Only issue is not being able to sit on the bike. I understand why, but it would be nice to sit on a bike before spending up to $30K USD. But it got me thinking, trying to analyze the price of the...
