A Dark version of the Multistrada 620 is also available. Its classic matte
black colouring and front brake with single large-diameter disc EVOkes the
minimalist aesthetics of the supermotard. The new entry-level model retains
all the outstanding performance, total control and maximum comfort of the
Multistrada 1000 DS, yet has the added benefit of being noticeably lighter
and lower: a full 13 kg/28 lbs lighter and 20 mm lower.
Light in weight, and with potent power delivered over a wide rpm range,
the Multistrada 620 is both versatile and economical.
Ducati set out to create a rEVOlutionary motorcycle – to be
innovative, to set new standards that will inspire others to follow, to create a
generation of sports bikes capable of tackling all road conditions. And the
result is the Ducati Multistrada. Whether your journey takes you up twisty
mountain roads, to busy city centers or on your daily commute, the Multistrada
excels wherever there is asphalt. Delivering performance without sacrificing
practicality, versatility without compromising road-manners and advanced design
without forfeiting function, the Multistrada is a real-world motorcycle for
real-world riders. In addition to the now acclaimed 1000 DS, Ducati has launched
a new, agile 620 entry-level model and a high-performance 1000S DS version for
2005.
Take a seat on the new Multistrada and experience how
effortless and natural the forward, upright riding position feels. Enjoy the
super-friendly handling, take pleasure in stress-free motorcycling: With the
Multistrada, you can have it all.

Additional Features
New for 2005 With the
Multistrada, Ducati invented a whole new motorcycling concept, that of a machine
capable of tackling all types of road and performing superbly on them all, a
highly personal motorcycle able to combine touring comfort and sports
performance. The Multistrada burst on to the motorcycling scene and in some ways
redefined versatility and performance, and offered a true alternative to
traditional motorcycles. Now, with the arrival of its 2005 models, Ducati
provides more alternatives. The Multistrada family has expanded in two
directions, with even higher performance in the form of the new 1000S DS with a
more sophisticated chassis to satisfy the most demanding riders and to a wider
audience with the introduction of two new entry level models. The real news for
2005 is the arrival of the Multistrada and Multistrada Dark, with nothing in
their names to identify the engine size but actually powered by the latest 620
cc engines.
Accessories
If that’s not enough, you can personalise your Multistrada to
your own specifications by choosing from the many items available in the Ducati
Performance accessories catalogue.
