ucati's enormously popular Multistrada is
a three-time Pikes Peak International Hill
Climb Champion, so it's only fair that for
2018 it gets a nice plethora of updates.
The most obvious is the increase in capacity
to 1262cc (the same as the base model Ducati
Multistrada 1260) for the Euro 4 compliant Tes-
tastretta DVT motor, which gives the PP edition an
18 percent increase in torque at 5500 rpm, with
85 percent of the torque available at 3500 rpm.
According to Ducati, this gives the Multistrada 1260
the highest torque values in its category at 4000
rpm, which is the most frequently used rev range.
The Pikes Peak edition also gets goodies like
a Termignoni carbon fiber muffler as standard
as well as a carbon fiber screen, front fender,
