Built around Ducati's sport touring motorcycle platform, the 2014 Ducati Multistrada 1200 S Touring relies on a 1198.4 cc (73.1 cu in) liquid-cooled v2, four-stroke powerplant. In factory specification, peak output is rated at 147.9 HP (108 kW) at 9,250 rpm while maximum torque reaches 124.5 Nm (91.8 lb-ft) at 7,500 rpm, transferring power to the rear wheel through a 6-speed gearbox and chain final drive. With a specific output of 123.4 HP per liter and a 1,750 rpm working window between peak torque (7,500 rpm) and peak power (9,250 rpm), the engine character is reflecting a performance-oriented street tune that balances strong mid-range pull with an energetic top-end rush.
On the scales, the Multistrada 1200 S Touring measures 234 kg (516 lbs) wet (curb), translating to a power-to-weight ratio of 0.63 HP/kg (1.58 kg per horsepower). Rider ergonomics and chassis geometry center around a 850 mm (33.5 in) seat height — resulting in a taller command-style riding posture suited to medium-to-tall inseams, combined with a 1,530 mm (60.2 in) wheelbase engineered for planted straight-line stability. The 20-liter (5.3 US gal) fuel tank supports practical everyday commuting and weekend road stints.

Power
Compare engine output with similar motorcycles if acceleration, highway use or two-up riding matters.
Torque
Torque is useful for judging real-world pull, especially for touring, commuting and loaded riding.
Seat Height
Check the seat height against your inseam and riding posture before choosing a motorcycle.
Weight
Compare weight carefully because it affects low-speed handling, parking and confidence.
Fuel Capacity
Fuel capacity helps estimate touring range and how often you may need to stop.
Brakes
Brake setup is worth comparing if you ride in traffic, mountains or with a passenger.
Suspension
Suspension details can matter for comfort, road feel and long-distance riding.
Transmission
Transmission and final drive affect maintenance, smoothness and everyday usability.
