Re: Ducati Multistrada meets the Strata Florida
Very nice indeed and a lovely little outing as well. Must be an awesome feeling riding a bike like that in it's correct environment and
as you say not just to Starbucks. May you have many more such trips.

Congrats, it's a fantastic looking and top performance machine and I'm available to take it on a maiden voyage down the Strata should you wish

Wait until I’ve introduced it to a spraytin of satin black, wrapped the expanse of silver in desert camo and got the correct tyres on it. The ‘Enduro’ pack hasn’t turned up yet either, it’ll be going on at the first service (hopefully).

Awesome, well done mateSHarper wrote: ↑Thu Mar 07, 2019 9:50 pm I think it must have been this thread that planted the seed as it were. I read this, did some research; asked Alun some questions; I cogitated, hesitated, teased myself, shall I? should I? could I?
I found an Enduro Pro at a dealer on eBay, watched it for weeks, became a bit obsessed with it. Then one morning a few weeks ago I said to the missus, “come on we’re going out for the day”, drove to Stoke, walked into the Ducati dealer and said to the gentleman in there “ I’ve come to buy that”, pointing at the Enduro Pro in the showroom, “ah”, he said, “I’ve just sold it, not half an hour ago, on the internet” “BUGGER!” I exclaimed
Have you tried the new 1260 Enduro? The salesman said.

So here it is, my new steed, 54 miles on the clock and doing its first lane. It came with the wrong tyres on it, but they’ll do for now.

Re: Ducati Multistrada meets the Strata Florida
Nice one .
As a matter of interest is the 'Gap' road still open to bikes? Would be good to see a big bike go up that well-known route as well .
