Next year's Ducati Multistrada gets a hike in capacity from 992cc to 1078cc for added power and torque.
By boring 4mm out of the L-twin's cylinders, power is increased to a claimed 95bhp at 7,750rpm and torque is now a more useful 102Nm at 4,750rpm which should suit the sit-up-and-beg sports tourer down to the ground.
The engine modifications are the only alterations to Multistrada for next year. Pricing of the new 2007-spec MTS1100 will be announced later this week.
