2006 Ducati Multistrada 1000S

[Dmitry]

I had it almost a year now, bought locally and I know past 2 owners, it's a great bike but I want something more "ADV" (KTM 950/990, Africa Twin, F800GS, Tenere...)
last one in, first one out, got to make room.

I'd like to get $5500, will take a reasonable offer

It's an "S" so it has Ohlins and carbon bits, plus Shfttech hugger
Shock was just serviced at Ohlins USA, new spring for 190# rider, new bushings, seals etc.
old reliable and very simple 2 valve motor, new belts and valve service about 5k ago, I can throw in new belts if it's a deal braker
Termi pipes, new Pilot Road 5's (400 miles)
aftermarket clutch sylinder
total milage about 20,200 last I checked
Ducati hard luggage, Givi top case
Sargent Seat (plus stock seats)
stainless hardware everywhere
handguards, frame sliders
center stand (unobtainulum) however I lost one of the mounts
probably more stuff I forgot

I've taken it places from Deal's gap to Newfoundland, it does everything well, but not quite KTM well...
I'd keep it but I don't have any more room, was supposed to sell something else when I got this one, but I never did...

Great bikes, I have a 2005 in black .... GLWS.

Best motor.

Bump!

Reasonable offers? Trades for ADV?

[whynot]

Trade toward ADV? Here's an idea. AJ Cycle, a great old-school shop, has a 2016 KTM 1190 ADV with 631 miles on it. I have no idea if he would consider taking your Duc on trade, but worth a call and visit out Route 2.

Good people there.

1190 is to much bike, might as well be 1200GSA... I'm hoping to get 950/990 or Africa Twin, also been looking at F800GS, they seem like a lightweight contender, but suspension is crap.

I did a trans-Labrador last year on a TE610, 4,000 miles on a thumper with a 2x4 for a seat, don't need much more than that, just an extra cylinder and slightly better seat

If MTS does not sell I'll keep riding it and get a cheap Wee Strom, they come up for short money already farkled out, those motors are bomb-proof, parts are cheap...
my kid does like Multi more than other ones, I just don't want to have any more bikes, too many already, running out of space...

[whynot]

Dmitry, I can relate, it would be hard to part with my MTS no matter which new bike tempted me. Some days, I want a Rocket III Roadster, other days, a TW200.

Bump!

You know you need it, that dry clutch rattle makes you the coolest guy at Starbucks
