I had a Pikes Peak, it was awesome.

And some carbon fiber.

I have a Pikes Peak and it IS an awesome bike!

Oh yeah...I'm a pilot too. 😁

It's the one I'd have if I was to have a Multi.

 

[dadridesagain]

they're awesome.

 

[Damascus]

All that means is you have a fancy paint job, old fashioned suspension and a loud-ass muffler. Rant over.

Ouch. Even so, I've always had a soft spot in my heart for the the Pike's Peak. It just looks right to me - even the latest iteration with that weird letter "I" on the side of it. 😆

This thread brought to you by somebody who doesn't own a pikes peak and can point out the differences.

and if I owned a pikes peak, I'd say pikes peak. I did when I owned my 2014 - nowadays I say "V4S Sport", because that's what it is.

Don't forget the forged wheels...

 

[Shawn of the Dead]

Forged Wheels, "Old Fashioned" Ohlins with Mechatronic active suspension module, Bitchin paint job, numbered, different wind screen, lotsa carbon, stock exhaust so no loud muffler. I love my Pikes Peak Multi. Great bike.

Essentially the same bike won Pikes Peak several times.

Also its common to be very specific when asking about parts for motorcycles so a fob or windscreen could potentially be different for a specific model because of what the computers may do.

Also for a "rant" that was pretty weak.

My friend Dan (MaxMach) has an awesome highly modded Pikes Peak. He likes to show off his PP at ECM.

Yup! I don't track her often but the forecast showed 70% chance on this day, and my SfV4 was on slicks. I love the raw/sportniess of the older ones vs the V4

So, "oxidefilm", what have we learned?

I know what I learned! We should save the badge bashing for BMW and the overused M badge model designations where they are deserved! lol

I certainly can't argue with this. Other than the "save" part. There's plenty of room for badge bashing in here too.

That the Pikes Peak upgrades make an awesome bike even awesomer?

 

[Jdan]

It's like the old joke...'how do you know if there's a fighter pilot at the party?" ... "He'll tell you"

But seriously. If you're asking about a key fob or screen protector or brake pads, you don't need to specify that it's for a pikes peak. All that means is you have a fancy paint job, old fashioned suspension and a loud-ass muffler.

Rant over.

Most parts of the regular Multistrada are the same as the PP but many parts are different including the brake pads on my 22 PP.

 

[JACKIE TREEHORN]

This is all a moot point. Anything newer than the 1100 multi is just an angry bird looking hipster machine designed specifically to go from one non conflict coffee bean shop to the next.

COME AT ME BREHS! WAR GEN 1 MULTISTRADA!!!

Oh mannnn…I own a 2021 M440 convertible and a 2014 PP. Such a poser…. 🤫
