Following the issue of the Ducati Panigale
V2 in white, the 2020 Ducati Multistrada 950 S adventure-tourer now comes in a
GP White colour scheme. The new livery will be sold alongside the current
model’s Ducati Red.
Taking inspiration from the Ducati Corse
livery in MotoGP and World Superbike Championship, the Multistrada 950 S comes
in an alternate white and grey paint scheme, accented by red in the frame and
wheels. This adds, according to the Ducati press release, “sportiness to the
Multistrada 950 S, which makes elegance, fluidity and balance of lines its strengths.”
The Multistrada 950 carries a 937 cc
Testastretta 11, liquid-cooled, V-twin engine with a power output of 113 hp at
9,000 rpm and 96.2 Nm of torque at 7,750 rpm. Weighing 229 kg, the Multistrada
950 rolls on a 19-inch front wheel and 17-inch at the back – available in both
spoke and cast alloy versions – while seat height is 840 mm, with lower and
taller seats being optional extras.
In the S version, the Multistrada 950
comes with Ducati Skyhook Suspension Evo (DSS) electronic suspension, Ducati
Quick Shift up & down (DQS) and full-LED headlamp with Ducati Cornering
Lights (DCL). A KYB 48 mm fully adjustable upside-down fork in front and a
fully adjustable Sachs monoshock unit with remote preload adjustment at the
back performs suspension duties on the base model Multistrada 950.
