2020 Ducati Multistrada 1260 S Grand Tour // First Impression

[@antonios8136]

I have the (19) 1260 S, except for the larger tank and pressure sensor...not a lot of changes. The red on grey does look cool!!!

[@ChipSpencer123]

Beautiful scenery!

[@thor8640]

This Grand Tour wasn't really a surprise as a GT model that was filed for approval with the EPA was leaked. The panniers look about the same size as I have on my Grantorismo, the TPMS was overdue to be added and should be standard on all MS as the sensor are in the accessory catalog. The gas cap is nice feature and can also be found in the accessory catalog. I kinda had my heart set on a 2020 Enduro but I want to wait till EICMA to see if they changed the colors, fingers crossed.

[@BurtoniMotors]

I was shocked there weren't more announcements yesterday at the Ducati event so maybe in Milan they will bringing updates for the rest of the bikes in the catalog? Also, I'm quite confused what the handsfree gas cap is all about. Can you explain it?

[@thor8640]

@@BurtoniMotors yeah me too, especially when I consider how much Ducati wanted from each dealer to attend - I think it 4000 USD plus airfare. The gas cap is Ducati part # 96680491A which is in the accessory catalog and has an MSRP of $350.00 USD. All MS have a proximity key that unlocks the bikes electronics, including this gas cap. When you shut the bike off the cap unlocks, you refuel and 60 seconds later the cap locks again - no key to fumble with as your key fob can remain in your pockets.

Gr8 video content & very informative, thnx for posting 😁

[@BurtoniMotors]

Really appreciate the feedback!

[@brisprott2451]

It looks great and may take my money but need to see how the new S1000(1250?) XR has to offer

[@flowrider5548]

Beautiful cinematic video, wow! Great-looking bike too. I'm getting the new 2020 S 1000 XR, but this one just rolled in as #2 with this capability, elegance and looks to steal. Got to test ride it, sooner than later :-)

[@RichDunn]

It might be the Grand Tour, but it's still too tall for Richard Hammond.

[@BurtoniMotors]

This joke is not lost. I lol'd.

[@artmchugh5644]

Now that is funny !

[@bongyakwui]

Really? I don't remember the last time saw Richard Hammond on a bike. Lol

[@bongyakwui]

I just bought a Multstrada 1260 Enduro and put on a full exhaust system by Termignoni plus Up Map. Unfortunately the "high frequency vibration" or buzzing after 5,000 rpm is unbearable. I think it's a common problem with Multistrada, therefore I will not put more money down for this GT and I hope they can sort out the buzzing issue with the up coming Multistrada V4.

[@BurtoniMotors]

What causes the buzzing? Is it just the older engine layout?

[@SuperCheesyMan]

I have a 2016 1200s with a full Arrow exhaust and Rapidbike auto-tuning fuel module, what do you mean by buzzing ? Sound or vibrations ?

[@bongyakwui]

Berlin Biker 1260 Enduro is the latest 2019 model. Not sure what caused the buzzing, still couldn’t figures out why it happened.

[@bongyakwui]

Francois-Xavier Nhieu Buzzing mean a high frequency vibration (very fast vibration) on the handle bar and foot pegs. My hands are numb after 15 minutes if continue with 5,000 rpm and above...

[@althafj]

S... multistrada V4 Bro.. Will it come near streetfighter v4 boundary...?

[@bossman521]

I want that bike, too👌

[@dustywood6387]

I usually don't finance bikes but I may have to make an exception!

[@BurtoniMotors]

I'm in the same place for you with the new Streetfighter. I never thought I'd consider an 18k bike, but I need it. It needs me.

[@albertmungcal2697]

change oil only every 15,000kms, wow! what oil is that??

[@paveldeveraux2729]

It's the Milenium age .....like 2020!...

[@MunsKi]

15000km before oil change wow

[@michaeldobson8859]

The issue is that this Ike is no better than an S model for touring. It doesn’t have a real touring focused seat, the fuel tank is no bigger than a standard model or S model. It doesn’t even come with the rack and trunk that previous GT models came with. So why is it so Grand? It’s just different pain and a few upgrades that should already be standard. Below average execution Ducati.

[@zam2823]

Nice but very Expansive come to malaysia... Government tax shit

[@richardtaylor3047]

Shame its chain driven😉

[@SkuStyle]

First Impression? More like 1000th click bait video. ZZZZZZzzzzzz

[@BurtoniMotors]

First impression does not mean first ride.

[@michaeldobson8859]

One more thing, reading a script and copying a Ducati video doesn’t make the video great.

[@BurtoniMotors]

Thanks for your thoughts.

[@mxg709]

This is a commercial not a review . I have the enduro and it hasn’t lasted longer then a week with out needing to go back in the shop. I’ve been able to ride 4,000 miles in 8 months. I usually ride 1500 in a day when I go somewhere . This video is pure bullshit the bike is purely unreliable

[@paveldeveraux2729]

Must be hard falling so often....

[@Itsthejourneynotthedestination]

You riding 1500 miles in a day is bullshit more like.
