Mount Hamilton is a riot!! Especially coming from the east (pueblo rd?).
Rode it last may from Reno, on the way to the Quail Motorcycle Gathering in Monterey. By the time I was at the top, i was hyperventilating from excitement, and i had arm pump from going gangbusters up the road, 30+ miles. I highly recommend it.

Even when I read an article that says an Aprilia and a BMW did faster times than a Panigale V4, I know I'll never have anything but a Ducati. I have owned six, including two Monsters and three Multistradas. Bought my first in 1974 (like the attached photo except for the air filters). Bought the gray 2017 Multistrada in September 2018 but managed to total it the next day. Damn! Fortunately I still have the white 2011 shown below. The 2017 handled a bit better and was a little smoother, but its engine threw off a lot more heat than the 2011.
Bought mine a year ago from Big Bike Project in Bangkok. it is a 2012 Pikes Peak and it only had 2200 kilometers on it. I have added 7000 in the last year.
i am currently riding around Thailand. Panniers are SW Motech which I am wrapped with: the frames detatch easily. Top box is a Givi 52L. More than enough luggage capacity for 4 weeks touring.
Roads in Thailand are sublime! I have been riding here 10 years. You need to be careful, but excellent riding on some world class roads.
Will post photos when I find the touring thread.
just realised the last time I posted here was 9 years ago when I hd my 1198!
Hey Team,
I am just back from a 3000 kilometer ride around Thailand, on my 2012 Multi Pikes Peak. I installed a PC5 with AutoTune and am using 2 Lambda probes.
To be honest its been hit and miss. I have a decat midpipe and Termi End Can, plus K and N Filter.
I am running the PC map for the...
I'll Start:
I installed T-Rex front & rear axles and frame sliders I got off Ebay all for $122. Overall I am very happy with the quality, hopefully I'll never report how well they actually work.
The riding season was cut short this year here in Wisconsin thanks to a Haloween snowstorm. I'll spare you the rant on that subject. Here is what I did.........
I was putting my Multi to bed for the season. Got its favorite storage spot in the garage, on its stand, favorite battery charger /...
So on my way to work I felt something odd and pulled over - pulled this bracket out of my chain.
What is this and is it safe to ride for a couple days until I can get it to the shop?
2011 Multistrada S
