Multistrada?

[autoteach]

Well, the video made it look like he was really hauling ass, and the sound made it feel like he was hauling ass, but the glimpses of the speedo gave everything a reality check. Bike probably had 125 hp at the start and 100 at the top. Didn't look toooo outa line to me.

Essentially you lose about 1/3 of your hp on the way up. And, if you pull away on a streetfighter at the same elevation, you kinda need to have more hp than it, or be considerably lighter.

Re: Re: Multistrada?

Stock KTM Adventure vs. Stock Multi pikes peak with riders of same skill level in the same senerio as above. Race up pikes peak and laps around a track, I find it difficult to believe the KTM would stand a chance. I would put my money on the multi. Now put them on a 300 mile off road adventure with full gear and the KTM wins hands down in my book.
