would you really take a 12K bike off road?

[TehRealTurbo]

@tonicroatia if i had a ducati, no way would i be taking it offroad!

[CEEPMDEE]

@RicardoR5 1st off your a dickface 2nd they probably teach that ergonomics would be 1st priority but if you ask me what they tought the guy who designed my "08" yzf-r6 he was tought beauty and performance of the bike should be 1st priority because it was Beautiful & fast and that's about it.

other than that you can keep the rest of the crap that you learned in your art class to youself dipshit.

Besides I am a NATURAL artist since 3 and you are school tought now guess who's the better artist.

[RicardoR5]

@CEEPMDEE You sound very mature, you're what 13y old? First i can see by your speech you do not own any kind of degree related to art or design. There is no universally accepted definition of art although the aspect i indicated is commonly used in conjuction with others terms. If you have so deep knowlage of art could you please tell me what 99% of classes in design teachs, regarding ergonomics vs beauty on cars/bikes ?

[CEEPMDEE]

@RicardoR5 shut the FUCK UP! you fail at logic yewww SHITHEAD you.

matter of fact find a homeless person somewhere and give him head.

you sound foolish.

why do you think certain people are chosen to design cars, bikes, vehicles, homes, clothes, shoes, businesses like malls, certain car assembly plants like the ones where exotic & luxury cars are built?

just look at the last bmw 5 &7 series... I would never hire him to design a car for me... not even my next birthday cake.

Dick!

[RicardoR5]

@CEEPMDEE you cannot ever EVER call a bike a form of art, an abject of art cannot serve any orther purpose than itself (being an art item), therefore any car or bike cannot be called art, no matter of how many times people say it. So you fail at art.

@huskynox1

Ducati is not just'a off road bike,but if you wana go litlebeat on gravel you can whitout of fear ,Multistrada is not project like a ultimate offroader

[japster1358]

@CEEPMDEE if you know what art is, then you should know that art APPEALS differently to every person...

Mejo che parli italiano or take some diction lessons!! JO

[williambrodie]

I hate LCDs, would not buy that bike for this reason (ok they selectore is fine but not the revs and speed)

[LtAld0Raine]

@huskynox1 I'll state the obvious too: "off-road" means a whole lot of different situations, including the flat barren ground seen on the video, where the exhaust looks perfectly safe. This bike is not fit for very rough rides, I agree, but how many GS ADV owners actually go (and enjoy it) where the Multistrada can't?

[huskynox1]

I'll state the obvious - the exhaust is a joke! First time off road it's history.

Good job Ducati - back to the drawing board.
