Ah man, you're fast! I'm still editing. Great to finally meet you! I do think it was a missed opportunity to not have the larger fuel tank and cylinder de-activation from the Rally.

He was quick. Yawn on this one. I agree. Missed opportunity. V4s with different paint and tpms(which should be standard anyway)

As a V4 Rally owner, I am not sure who the target audience is for this version. less fuel, no cylinder shut off, and no engine guard. I am glad I swapped to the Rally from the Pikes Peak. Perfect for my use cases.

I agree I would have loved to see the 30L tank from the Rally. Also, I didn’t even think about he front tire if they would have went with the 17” front tire as well this would have been perfect

Great video guys, cheers for the up-load 😎👍

Ride V4s fantastic bike when it came out, recently tried the Rallye, but on moorland roads through tight roads, bog down at low speeds with the bike dropping onto 2cylinders , not good in lanes having to rev it harder to keep it in 4 cylinder, was on dartmoor in tight wet slippery lanes though 😊

Awesome video! I really like that bike. The smaller fuel tank doesn't bother me because fuel stations are pretty much everywhere and I like to take a break every now and then anyway. Best!

Same, 200+ miles is plenty between fills, and I like the look and handling of the regular tank.

Great bike. Only negative is the engine heat that I felt on the bike I testet in my 200 kilometres on the V4s that I tested. Outside temp. was 25 c. Also fuel consumption is way higher then other adventure bikes.

great review!

Love my V2S Travel, need to start saving my pennies for next change….love it😀

Thank. Well planned to show ALL features.

Fantastic review... can I ask, what is the brand of your jacket? Looks great for riding in all weather conditions...

So it’s just a v4s then,I was kinda worried when I saw this video pop up , thing I’m ok with my rally then 😅

hey man, another great vid, congrats. Was wondering: What jacket are you wearing? It's a Revit no?

I see your comment and you still haven't got your answer of the jacket , hopefully before new year 🤔

It would be good if they gave you the option of fitting the larger tank off the Rally for extra range. I had a 32 litre tank on my R80GS.

Great. Now I want this. Thanks a lot Motobob.😂

8:59 What's with those pistons hanging out at TDC? Got some funky new crankshaft in that engine? 😂

The most elegant Multistrada. I will change my Triumph in spring and this beauty is one of my candidates, the other the new GS 1300. I wait for comparisons although in the end it will be the heart that will decide.

I was looking at one. For that price, i settled on a new Tracer 9 GT+ and used the addional funds towards a 22 Tuono 1100 as the weekend toy.

Fuel consumption/small tank, how does that add up to making a good tourer?

I think this gets a 7.5/10 causes of the standard fuel tank. It is basically a V4s, (i'd give that a 8.5/10) with touring pack and new stickers. Make the slow speeds two cylinder with large fuel tank set and this one gets a nine/10.

Moto Bob , is it really an adventure tour or just a sports tourer I currently have a multi Strada they are a handful on the dirt. I have done the right experience on this bike but just did not like it had no soul.

Did you mention if it had a quickshifter?

It would be a good alternative to the bmw gs adventure but every bmw gs rider I know wants shaft drive.

Absolutely Absolutely Absolutely

I don’t really understand the point of the Grand Tour. Isn’t the Rally the better ‘Grand Tourer’ anyway since it has the bigger fuel tank and also the better cylinder deactivation? Is there any detail where the Grand Tour is better than the Rally?

Love the bike it's hewsome

Sure beats my 61 tiger cub I got used (very) when I was 12 😂

I think they should have kept the front blinkers in the face of the hand guards.

Just like KTM and their SMT, the stuff that you need for touring is deemed not necessary. ie Screen and fuel range

It seems to be a parts bin compromise. I tried a V4s and loved it but was horrified at the fuel consumption in the 30 MPG range if it was used energetically. Filling up every 130 miles on a Grand Tourer just didn't do it for me. This version misses the opportunity of a bigger tank and having the rear cylinders switch off in traffic, which is a shame.

@damansidhu77

10 ай бұрын

Just sharing as a V4S Sport owner, the typical mileage I get is between 160 to 170 miles before I need a fill up. It's definitely not 130 miles.

I want a larger tank, better protection, and the 17 inch wheels of the pikes peak. This would be a taller, more relaxed riding tourer. A driveshaft would also be excellent, but probably a tall order for Ducati.

Great looking machine , but a lot of money for a bike and technology that I wouldn’t use personally , few settings is enough for me , but i can appreciate that some will love it ,

I test road the V4S a year after buying what I thought was already an over priced GS1250 with full spec. The Ducati is an awesome bike & step up but I think the fuel consumption along with companies desire to remain a premium product unfortunately outprices everything else & us the consumer. I'd love one of these bikes, Im off to buy a lottery ticket!

I expected wider side panniers and top case standard, like the 1200 Gran Turismo had. I had the electronic fuel cap installed on my 2021 V4S, it failed after 8 month and would not close. Got a replacement that I never installed but rather keep the keyed cap. A larger fuel tank is not really necessary as I have about 250 km range, I do think Ducati could have done better with this Grand Tour - this "big" announcement feels like a bit of a waste.

I want to see a comparison between the v4 rally and the v4 s GT c'mon

And a qualified mechanic on call

It's literally the same bike as the 3 year old Multi V4S with fog lights and new paint job. If they have put the larger tank in, it would make the Rally obsolete. I love my 21 V4S Sport with full Akra, don't see any need to change.

Wish I could afford one.

To expect fully new model by Ducati will have to wait almost 5 years

Great bike, but unfortunately out of the reach of most people's budgets...

To think when i was into buying a brand new bike 3 years ago, Ducati dealership refused to give me a multistrada because i did not have full on leather gear with me, just leather jacker, jeans and regular leather boots. Left a sour taste in my mouth, then i said ok and went to book a test ride for an Africa Twin, the guys gave it to me immediately when i showed up as it was available then and there. And the rest was history, been happily every after with my 1100 Africa Twin ever since.

Totally put me off Ducati’s full stop. Anybody who pays this is crazy and definitely has more money than sense!

Proposed shortcut: Give me the Rally version with a 17" front wheel and Apple CarPlay. Perfecto!

I mean, like cold or intermediate engine temps in ducati is unheard of......

Should’ve gone for 17” front.

As for a 30 L tank and that is a lot of fuel and a lot of weight surely it's just easier to pull up every 350 km 10:31

7 k more than the base model is just pure greed

Why in any kind of way would anyone want to use radar to track with the speed of the vehicle in front of them? 50, 65, 54, 72, back to 50, over and over again.

How much 😂😂😂 Active ride control and radar , I’ve got eyes to read the road ahead and behind 🤪🤪🤪. Sorry I ride a motorbike to enjoy it , not for for it to take over , it’s why I hate cars etc .

Shaft drive for a mile eater. Honda should've modernised, better packaged and kept interest in their shaft v4 from the vf1200's or the much older pan.

@Motobob Hi bud, just wanted to point out at 1:38 you accidentally put 170 PH instead of 170 HP .. Im sure everyone knows its Horse Power if Not... We will tell them it means 170 Powerful Horses 😂. Great Video Bob Thanks Man

All expense paid ride promotion by Ducati? This is why there are rarely any test rides available by manufacturers at dealers. We are suppose to 'trust' the "influencers"! Humbug

i had a radar system on a ktm sup adv, turned it off..... what rider sits in traffic, allowing an automatic system to control their bike. of course there will be fanboys singing its virtues...... me, I punched out of traffic, kept a clear road around me. EDIT: i traded to an R GS1250 ADV.... curiously no radar on that top selling bike?

What a shame if this bike came with the 30 liter tank it would be the bike to have in the Ducati Multistrada line up. Shame on Ducati calling a bike a Touring bike when it would be hard to make 200 miles on a tank of fuel.

I’ll be keeping my Tiger 1200 Rally Pro, better fuel economy, better looking and not full of plastic like this bike is, just too many plastic panels and the luggage looks awful only my opinion 👍

Give me a kitted out Versys 650 and I'll never want another bike for the rest of me life.

Put 17 inch wheels on this bike and I would be all over it

Hideous bike. I'm sure it's spectacular.....but good god, it's ugly. It also seems an odd choice of name when there are other models in the range with a bigger tank. Maybe 'Grand' doesn't mean what I thought.
