2023 Ducati Multistrada V4 Rally Review
Cycle World

7/23/23


This week on cycleworld.com we posted a trio of motorcycle reviews covering a wide range of motorcycle segments. We’ve got a Ducati Mutistrada V4 Rally test in the mountains of Colorado, an US-exclusive first ride of Triumph’s Speed 400, and a review of the Harley-Davidson Sportster S—quite the mix of bikes and something for almost every rider. 


CW Editor-at-large Blake Conner spent two days riding Ducati’s latest adventure offering through the mountain passes of Colorado. The Multistrada V4 Rally is Ducati’s most off-road-capable Multistada thanks to more suspension travel and other changes. Find out if the Multistrada V4 Rally was able to conquer all that Colorado’s alpine had to dish out here.


Triumph’s new 400 singles won’t hit US showrooms until next year but Cycle World’s UK contributor Adam Child scored an early ride on one of the two models that were just announced last month: the Speed 400. In his short time on the Speed 400, Child was impressed by the build quality and performance from the Triumph/Bajaj project. Check out the only test on this bike from a US outlet. 


Last but not least, In-Market Editor Bradley Adams spent some quality time with the Harley-Davidson Sportster S to get a better understanding of where the Revolution Max 1250T-powered machine fits in the cruiser segment. He found a pleasing mix of style and performance but also leaves with a few questions. Check it out and let us know in the comments what you think.


As always, there’s more than we can fit into this email. Check out cycleworld.com for additional tests, reviews, and news.

Ride on,
