2019 Ducati Multistrada 950 Overview

For 2019, Ducati offers the Multistrada 950 as an enduro / off-road motorcycle with 937 cc on tap. The 2019 Ducati Multistrada 950 is built around a Testastretta, L-Twin cylinder, 4 valves per cylinder, Desmodromic engine, a compression ratio of 12.6:1. Out on the road, the Multistrada 950 delivers 83.1 kW @ 9000 rpm of peak power and 96.2 Nm @ 7750 rpm of torque. In everyday use, the 2019 Multistrada 950 tips the scales at 227 kg, carries a 20-litre fuel tank, offers a seat height of 840 mm and spans a 1594 mm wheelbase. That's roughly 28.2 kg heavier than the average enduro / off-road motorcycle in our database. Every technical detail, from suspension travel to tyre sizes, is covered in the full 2019 Ducati Multistrada 950 spec sheet below.

2019 Multistrada 950 - Pros & Cons

Strengths

Strong power output: Peak output on the Multistrada 950 is 83.1 kW @ 9000 rpm and 96.2 Nm @ 7750 rpm of torque - strong numbers for what it is.
Fuel injection: No choke, no jetting, no altitude compensation to think about - fuel injection just works across a wider range of conditions than carburetion.
Large fuel range: With a 20-litre tank, this isn't a bike you'll be stopping for fuel every hour - a real asset on longer trips.

Considerations

Tall seat height: A 840 mm seat puts flat-footing out of reach for a lot of riders - sit on it in person before committing.
Chain final drive upkeep: A chain drivetrain is the most common setup in its class, but it's also the one that demands the most regular hands-on maintenance.

Wear Points & Servicing Notes

Cooling system servicing

With Liquid cooled, thermal management is largely automatic, but the coolant has a service life of its own - replace it on the manufacturer's interval to protect the water passages and thermostat.

Fuelling & injector care

Fuelling on the Multistrada 950 comes from fuel injectionsystem. Cold starts and throttle response stay consistent across altitude and temperature, the main practical edge over a carbureted equivalent.

Brake disc and pad wear

2 x 320 mm semi-floating discs, Radially mounted Brembo monobloc 4-piston 2-pad callipers, Radial Master Cylinder, Bosch Cornering ABS up front provides the primary stopping power; inspect disc thickness and pad wear at each tyre change to catch scoring before it becomes a rotor replacement.

Suspension condition on used examples

Suspension duties are handled by 48 mm fully adjustable USD fork up front and Fully adjustable monoshock, Remote spring preload adjustment, Aluminium double-sided swingarm at the rear. Weeping fork seals aren't a dealbreaker on a used bike, but they're a fair basis for negotiating price.

Final drive maintenance

Chain final drive on the Multistrada 950 means routine lubing and tension checks are part of ownership - skip them and sprocket wear accelerates noticeably.

Frame & chassis check

The Tubular steel trellis frame chassis holds up well with normal use; on a used bike it's still worth checking the head-stock and swingarm pivot area for impact damage or corrosion.

Handling the weight at a standstill

The Multistrada 950's 227 kg kerb weight is worth factoring into how you handle it at a standstill - parking-lot manoeuvres need a bit more deliberate technique than on a lighter machine.

Multistrada 950 - Buying & Maintenance Guide

What to check before buying

A pre-purchase check on the 2019 Ducati Multistrada 950 should cover the same ground every time: service history, chain and sprocket condition, and any oil seepage around the casings. Start it from cold if you can - a well-kept Multistrada 950 settles to a smooth idle within seconds.

Oil and filter changes

Oil changes are the cheapest insurance you can buy for a Multistrada 950's engine - keep to the manufacturer's interval rather than stretching it. Use the viscosity grade the manual specifies, not whatever's on sale.

Fuel system care

Injector systems like the Multistrada 950's hold up well with basic care - decent fuel, an occasional cleaner additive, and draining old fuel before any layup longer than three months.
