Ducati UK have advised that the much awaited Multistrada 1200 will have significantly extended service intervals, with major services only being required evry 24,000 km (15,000 miles).

This doubling of the mileage between valve clearance inspection has been made possible with the introduction of a new valve seat material combined with improved combustion efficiency and temperature management designed into the Multistrada’s new Testastretta 11° engine, but this revised engine also offers improved fuel economy. So it seems like you will truly get more miles on the new Ducati Multistrada 1200!
