Ducati SPORT TOURING ST3 reviews

Superb sport tourer. Comfortable, sporty, a little loud with the Termi pipe, utterly visceral experience. I bought mine used and needed to replace the fuel sender unit. I did it myself thanks to Youtube and it has functioned well for over 2 years now. I love my 2013 1200S Multi and am upgrading to a 1260S which would fit my short stature better (I'm 5'7") Show less

Everything about this motorcycle rocks. Power, handling, brakes, software, comfort. Love it! So fast! WOW! The balancing characteristics are fabulous. Just so easy to drive in corners, and so safe feeling. Solid, as you’d expect! Show less

The **Ducati Multistrada 950S** strikes a perfect balance between performance, comfort, and versatility. With its 950cc engine, it offers **more than enough power** for spirited rides without being overly heavy or intimidating, making it a great option for both seasoned riders and those newer to adventure touring. Ducati is renowned for building **fast, high-performance motorcycles**, and the 950S lives up to that reputation with smooth acceleration and sporty handling. One of its standout features is its **comfort**—thanks to an upright riding position, plush seat, and advanced suspension, it's built for long-distance touring without fatigue. Add in Ducati’s premium build quality and advanced tech, and the 950S becomes an incredibly well-rounded machine that’s just as happy carving up twisty roads as it is cruising on the highway. While service can be a little pricey, that’s expected with most European brands. But the tradeoff is worth it—you're getting a bike that's incredibly fun to ride and built to perform. Show less

The Ducati multi GT is an amazing machine, and with the Ducati safety pack, like an amazing partner on the road... it once self corrected at speed when I hit an unseen oil patch on some fresh asphalt. It is incredible technology that was a split second faster than my own quick reflexes. The power under load is impressive. Fully loaded with 2 riders, no problem. I had one of the greatest adventures of my life taking mine on a round trip cross country tour. The heated grips came in handy in the mountains out west. All four riding modes are awesome and the Multi handles well on or off-road in rocky and sandy terrain. The road is your oyster with this beautiful trusty beast. Show less

This is an awesome adventure bike. Here are what I consider to be the pros of this bike: 1. It has brutal amounts of power on tap (170hp!) but a very refined power delivery 2. Huge amounts of low end torque to get off the line and out of the hole 3. Sounds pretty awesome also with the Acro pipe it comes with 4. Very relaxed riding position for those long rides 5. Comes with saddle bags as part of the package 6. You can get low and high option saddles for it 7. Heated grips and heated seat 8. Active cruise control is amazing with blind spot detection There are also some things I didn’t particularly like about it compared to other bikes: 1. Honestly the saddle is not that soft so my ass hurts on long rides, but overall it’s pretty decent. The high saddle I use is a bit softer than the stock one. 2. The quick shifter works awesome if you are on the gas or in higher gears, but 1st to 2nd at low speeds is a bit rough. Going slow I usually go to 2nd with the clutch. 3. The 19” front wheel is probably awesome for going off road but I prefer the 17” sport bike feel. Maybe the V4 pikes peak would be better for folks who want sport bike handling. 4. The built in navigation using the Ducati app is not very good. I put my phone up there and use that instead. Show less

This bike is a true sport touring motorcycle with the emphasis on sport. It comes with everything needed for touring including functional, roomy side cases, heated grips, center stand and adjustable windscreen. Touring, sport riding, track days, commuting and even a little off pavement riding is well within the bike's capabilities. In spite of the fact that this engine makes super bike power, it is completely manageable with the four engine modes. The Skyhook suspension is always working and does a great job of reacting to road conditions and the style of riding whether it be two up with luggage or tearing around a race track, truly amazing. This is the perfect sport touring motorcycle - it's fast, durable, fun and beautiful to look at. After all, it is a Ducati! Show less

Truly feels and sounds like a motorcycle should. I added a special order race exhaust from Shark that looks sounds and performs much better than the Termi. The way the engine delivers broad usable torque with that manly desmodromic roar must be experienced to appreciate. The bike looks amazing. I got #4 of 100 made with the ridiculously cool Darmah black and gold paint. It turns heads everywhere. I also put a gold pressure plate and slotted cover. I added the gold anodized CRG adjustable levers too. My friends ride various Ducati, KTM, and Harley models, but they all envy my superior machine! It's not super comfortable, but it's a motorcycle, not a lazy boy. Show less

Bought the bike used with 5400 miles. I've since put more than 2K miles with just day rides. Love the ample power throughout the rev range. It is sooo light compared to my 2004 RT. After market pipes make it sound like a Ducati, but the loss of computer (as referenced above) is a shame (esp. for touring). The bike handles as well as my S4 Monster in the twisties but much more comforatble for those multi-hundred mile days. Need to install the throttlemeister cruise control ASAP. It is sitting on my desk waiting for the time. Bags are plenty large enough and don't seem to get in the way while lane splitting. A++++ for looks and style. I love this bike. I will probably keep the RT to lend to friends when I don't want to ride alone. Show less

I bought this bike on a bit of a whim, looking at a Triumph and the dealer had this leftover demo bike for a great discount. It fit very well so I snagged it. After a little over a month and over 2500 miles I am very satisfied. I have ridden it several times on 400-500 mile trips (I am working out of town) and local commuting and weekend riding. So far the transmission, which started out kinda clunky, has gotten much smoother. The panniers hold everything I need, the seat is wonderful, no need to change it. I changed the windscreen for cosmetic purposes only. The power is immediate and there's certainly more of it than I will ever need. My only complaints are the bars are too low, it needs adjustable risers. Also, it could use a throttle lock. Again as the bars are so low I can relax my left hand from time to time but not my right. I know the aftermarket can supply these things, but for an expensive bike these are simple items. One other thing, and not a big deal but my chain had too much slack in it, while attempting to adjust the axle I realized why there are aftermarket axle plates. The stock ones are junk. Show less

Aftermarket exhaust modification (pipes)substantially throws off the computer calculations on all fuel statistics if you tweak the air/fuel mixture from the original factory settings. The computer is designed to only work with factory pipes and ratio settings. The sound and look cool, but you computer will become useless. Show less
