2025 Ducati Multistrada V2S. Runs nice and cool.

In less than a minute, my wife owned a 2021 Ducati Panigale V2, a great and reliable bike, but it kept blistering her inner thighs. We tried everything: additional heat shields, a full exhaust system and although it improved slightly, the problem persisted. The last straw came during a Sunday...

Great unit, easy to read in bright conditions, been in the rain hours on end and never failed. I recommend it.

Let us know what you decide in the end. The Supersport is a fun bike and surprisingly comfortable for a sports type of bike. As many have mentioned, insurance will likely be your biggest challenge. You can get your license faster than in three months, book your M1 now, complete the exit course...

Congratulations. Great choice.

When the bike had 500kms on it, I upgraded the exhaust but I still have the original in a box. If you want it, it is yours.

Terrible show unless you are a HD fan, most of the bikes on display were HD bikes, 30% of the vendors have nothing to do with the hobby and too many people. Save your money.

For me a bike without a quick shifter would be a deal breaker. When people say you can shift as fast manually, that is not really true, recently, one of the WSBK riders lost his quickshifter halfway through the race and that cost him 3 seconds per lap (he ended up retiring the bike because of...

Good luck getting that bike insured. I had an impossible time getting a 1100cc insured for less than $1500 a year.

The price is not the issue, the availability is the issue, KMS is terrible, months waiting for parts, Ducati, usually less than 10 days. Unless it is from the Ducati performance store, then it could be months.

One was a 2023 Superduke with two cracked mirrors due to vibrations and a couple of broken screws. He was told the part would be in sometime at the end of July or beginning of August. The other bike was 5 year old 790 (I believe) with a broken exhaust holder and that part would be in sometime in...

Look into the parts' availability from KTM, 2 separate people this weekend told me that they are waiting months for parts and oil chances can be weeks waiting.

I couldn't agree more...

I have been to the Ducati Flagship dealership in Montreal and I was told at the time that Ducati was looking for a similar setup in Toronto, this could be it but it would require a new building. The Montreal location is just amazing, also some of the friendliest staff I ever dealt with, I got a...
