So the 'S' model gets some fancy carbon bits and Ohlins suspension which must be very good as my standard model with stock suspension is a very, very good bike to ride with comfort and ride being peerless (well it's fitted with the DP gel seat)

Other than the carbon and gold Ohlins bits the 'S' is basically the same as the bike I now own. Mine is fitted with Termigoni's and associated airbox and factory ECU and it brings the bike to life

Make no mistake, this is one fast and able bike but in a nice subtle way, it's got sportsbike handling up to a point and that point is track day's, on real roads the Multistrada is a better bike
