ST2 is History

[DucDave]

...nope, didn't crash it (this time!). Traded for a 2007 Multistrada 1100s. I rode this bike a couple times while leading sessions at the Ducati Demo Days event a couple Saturdays ago. Decided it would be an excellent replace ment for the ST2 which had 72,000 miles!

Ohlins front and rear, 1100cc dual spark motor, 2 year unlimited mileage warrenty, and a riding position that lets my aging legs stretch a bit more easily.

I might not be able to keep up with the best of you...but it won't be the bike that makes me slower!!!

...and before anyone says it...pics to follow!

JUST because you posted this thread & mentioned pics were on their way....





















































Congrats on the swap, can't wait to see the ugly duckling

congrats on the new bike

Ok...the new Strada 1100s is bone stock at the moment. But the S model has a few nice Carbon Fiber bits and, as mentioned earlier, the upgraded Ohlins front and back!

Hard bags and center stand are on order.

I don't intend to catch mod-fever but I don't intend to catch a cold either. We'll see how long the purchase price vacination gives me immunity!

niceeee.... why not wait for the hypermotard?

[duey]

every now and then i'll jump on a multistrada at work and as soon as i sit on it i forget how ugly it is and how comfortable it is......until i get off and look at it.

Great bike though, i'm sure you'll enjoy it like every multi owner i know.

Congrats Dave!

Have you pulled a wheelie on it yet?

Can't wait to check it out next time you are at the bike night.

psssttt....don't tell anyone...(and lurkers Pat and Paul, close your eyes)

but I saw the Hypermotard yesterday...can't say where! VERY nice but I do a lot of long distance touring and the Multi is a better answer for me!

Congrats Dave!

What's a wheelie???

Nice! Check out Steve Munro's 'strada if you need any modification idea's. He calls his the "hyperstrada". loudbike

What did you do with the ST2? Is it for sale anywhere? I've been trying to get my hands on one for a long time. A 72,000 mile ST2 is exactly what I'm looking for.

Dave are you taking this on the CST trip?
