    Hi,
    new to this forum but been a member of the Tiger 1050 forum for a few years.
    I live in Derbyshire, am retired and currently own a 2018 Tiger Sport having had a 3 year fling with a Ducati Multistrada after the sale of my previous 2013 TS.

    I basically got fed up with being held hostage to Ducati's dealer only servicing regime....there's virtually nothing DIY you can do on the latest DVT models..even an oil change needs DDS2 to reset the service interval.

    Great bike but in real world terms the Tiger is better....apart from seat comfort and suspension, but the the Multis got Semi Active suspenders which is just something else waiting to go wrong.

    Happy I made the change back...Im loving the new model TS:)

    Hi Dave and Welcome, I like Ducati's have ridden a few but never taken the leap to ownership as I have always thought them to be high maintenance and expensive, glad your enjoying the new TS.
