Ducati India has launched its flagship adventure motorcycle, the Multistrada 1260 in India. The Multistrada 1260 is priced at Rs. 15.99 lakh and the Multistrada 1260 S is priced at Rs. 18.06 lakh (ex-showroom, India). It is the most powerful bike in the Multistrada range and has the same 1,262 cc L-twin DVT Testastretta engine as on the Ducati XDiavel. This means that it now makes more power and torque at 158 bhp 129.5 Nm. The engine has been re-tuned to pump out more torque at low and mid revs. Internationally, the Ducati Multistrada 1260 is available in four different variants, but in India, only two variants will be offered on sale - the standard Ducati Multistrada 1260 and the Ducati Multistrada 1260 S.
