So, I’m a day late with this motorcycle news roundup, but I’ve had a heck of a week. The election happened or is still happening, and that threw me off. Anyway, let’s get to news.
This week, Ducati and Triumph both managed to make the cut for the roundup, and they’re pretty big stories for both brands.
Without wasting any more of your time, let’s dive into what has happened with these two brands.
The 2021 Ducati Multistrada V4 Is Here
Ducati has been teasing the crap out of the new Multistrada V4 and the company finally revealed the bike. It looks better than I thought it would and to be honest is the best the Multistrada has ever looked. That new engine should be better than ever, too, with one of the longest service intervals ever at 36,000 miles between valve adjustments.
Ducati Reports Best Q3 Ever
On the back of the Multistrada V4 reveal comes news from Ducati that it had its best Q3 ever. This comes as somewhat of a shocker due to the fact that Coronavirus has been straight up messing everything up in the world. It’s on the rise again, so we will see if Ducati can keep this positive momentum going into Q4 and on into 2021.
Triumph Reveals the Trident 660
Triumph has teased the new Trident 660 before and discussed the bike, but now the motorcycle is officially revealed. It looks great, has a new triple engine that should thrill you and is one of the most affordable in its segment. That sounds like a winner to me. Bravo Triumph. I may have to own one of these bikes, and it would be my first Triumph ever. I doubt I’m the only person that’s drawn to this machine. It will be cool to see how many of these affordable, badass bikes they end up selling.
