Did someone at Ducati organise a bulk buy discount on white paint? We’ve only just seen the 2020 Ducati Panigale will be available in that colour, and the 2020 Ducati Multistrada 950 S now comes in GP White as well.
To be fair, the dual sports adventure bike gets a more complicated design than the Panigale, as it alternates between white, grey and red.
Apparently the GP White design has been inspired by Ducati MotoGP graphics. But we have to admit, it looks a bit more grey to us than white…
The idea is to make the Ducati Multistrada look a bit sportier by tweaking the paint scheme. So you get the alternating white and grey with some splashes of red on the frame and fairing, plus for the graphics on the alloy wheels.
The Ducati Multistrada 950 S is also available in Ducati Red, and there’s an option to switch to spoked hweels if you prefer.
It’s powered by the 937cc Testatretta 11 degree engine putting out 113hp, and 96Nm torque at 7,750rpm. And selling points include the relatively low weight and seat height for this style of bike. The claimed dry weight is 207kg, and with a seat height of 840mm. Low and high seat accessories are available from Ducati for the Multistrada 950 to lower or raise your perch 20mm in the desired direction.
You also get a host of technology on the S version of the bike, including electronic suspension with Ducati Skyhook Suspension Evo (DSS) system, Ducati Quick Shift up & down (DQS), full-LED headlamp with Ducati Cornering Lights (DCL), 5” colour TFT display, Hands Free system, Cruise Control and backlit handlebar controls, as well as Bosch ABS Cornering.
Technically, it’s actually the 2021 model year of the Ducati Multistrada 950 S, but given that the GP White version goes on sale from the end of July 2020, that’s just too confusing for us. Why can’t we just release all the 2021 models on January 1st and be done with it?
What’s easier to understand is that the Multistrada range get a special warranty from Ducati which is valid for 4 years with unlimited milage.
The 2020 Ducati Multistrada 950 S in GP White with either allow or spoked wheel versions will be in dealers from the end of July 2020 and the price starts at £13,995.
