New guy here thinking about selling my 2003 Ducati Multistrada 1000DS and buying a low mileage 2012 Yamaha Super Tenere.
My Multistrada is getting a little long in the tooth and despite its name is really a pavement-only bike with very few farkles available for anything else. It's also demanding to ride with its more sporty gearing and firm suspension, especially on longer trips. Don't get me wrong, I love the bike, but it may be time to make a change. My assumption is that the S10 has a more plush ride and is other wise a more comfortable bike for the long run on pavement, as well as suited for gravel and off-road. And of course I'm already aware of the wide choice of parts and equipment to make it just what I'd want.
So, I'd very much appreciate any thoughts others have about making the change.
Thanks!
