Merry Christmas! I hear it in your voice, your in luuuuuuvvvvvve! I felt like that with my Concours14 when I started riding it. Just did 400 miles to see my brother and loved just riding it again for distance touring here in the states. Thanks for the ride this morning.
I thought you'd done a grand job on that Triumph project bike at first! 😮🤣😂👍 It's just brilliant that you loved the Benelli, but this will make a huge difference for Karen & yourself while munching away the miles! 👍❤️😎 Away to watch "The Short Way Round" now...Which sounds a wee bit familiar! 😉👍
A cracking machine, Weston, perhaps its only fault being it's a tad heavy on the motion lotion. I'm really pleased for you as it appears to have made you a very happy bunny.
Congratulations . Very nice bike. My M8s got one. We sometimes swap bikes, and that thing scares the shit out of me with the power and speed. It's a Saturn 5 Rocket with no guidance system 😂. It'd kill me if I owned it because I have no self-control with that power😅. I just clocked over 7000k in 8 months on the TRK, and I'm still alive and have a license, so happy days. Enjoy being a fighter, a pilot 😁😆😅🤣😂👍👌
🤣🤣 I'm beginning to understand what you mean mate, I do miss the ease of the benelli already. The multistrada needs a lot of focus and emotion to deal with its Italian temperament 🤣
Hi Steve, I only had it 5 months which doesn't tell the full story and makes it sound like a bad bike, this is so far from the truth, if I could keep the benelli and have the multistrada for longer journeys I would love it, but can't afford to keep them both 😔 It was a close choice between a used multistrada or a new benelli trk702 but I've gone with my heart this time, I hope I don't regret it 🙏
🤶🤶🎅first of all happy Xmas and great start to your video and the sound! But heh that’s the bike bike for you for sure ✔️ Looks and sounds amazing Well done and congratulations on your new family member 🙌🙌😊😊 All the best phil
Thanks buddy, it gives me that buzz again that I haven't really had since selling the monster a few years back. Us motorcyclists are a strange bunch aren't we 🤣 Merry Christmas to you and yours mate, let's hope for a warm and sunny 2024 ❤️🏍
Lovely new bike mate 👌 Just as I down size mine, you go bigger!! 😂 As far as the screen goes, I had the same issue, with the KTM. I fitted a screen extension, looks 💩, but really works well! 🙂👍 Might be worth a try, with the Puig screen, if only for trips..........and they're cheap!!
I've just bought a standard one to cut, but if it doesn't work I'll give an extension a go, cheers grumps. Have a great Christmas bud, hope I see you in the new year 👍
Yeah I really enjoy your channel, sadly I had to make way for the multistrada by selling the benelli which was awesome. And I really miss my firestorm but my wrists would say otherwise 🤣🤣
A simply gorgeous bike. La dolce vita on two wheels 😍 Happy new year to you & family mate, all the best for 2024 ✌ ps, Welcome to the heated grips club old bean 🙌
Probably One of the best bikes I've owned (and reviewed) so far, although I had the updated DVT 1200 and more recently the most awesome 1260 - the older 1200 is still a great bike, apart from the dodgy screens which most had to be replaced, and the dodgy fuel sensors, but looks like you found a decent One there. I'm not far from you down near Plymouth, and have friends I need to visit in WSM so might see you on the road 😁
That'd be great buddy, 👍 I've already fallen in love with the 1200, no surprise really as I've always lived ducatis. I'm gonna cut a screen down to the size of the pikes peak carbon screen which seems to do the trick, already have a donor genuine screen. I've heard of the issues with the fuel sender so I will keep and eye out. Its currently with CMC motorcycles in Newport having new discs fitted and a gear return spring under warranty. They've been brilliant to deal with and nothing is too much trouble. Have a great Christmas and New year bud 🎅👍
Although I didn't need to because I knew what they were like, I actually wat he'd many of your vids before taking the plunge, beena sub for a while now 🤩👍
I've been riding a '13 multi for 4 years now. Love the bike more and more. I wish you many happy miles. By the way I drive around in urban mode about 90% of the time;. The screen : for about 3 years now I've been using an MRA X-creen, that's an extra deflector you mount on the front of the screen. Solves the problem completely (does take some experimentation and adjustment) Just to give you an idea of what I think of the bike, I also own a 1260 multi, but I almost always pick the 1200 by preference.
That's awesome Clive, I've never known a bike have so many happy owners who are even happy ignoring the occasional little issue because the rest of the bike is so good. Interesting thought about the screen though, I will definitely look into that one. I've got a spare that I am going to shorten but if that doesn't work I check out the MRA-x. I'm interested why you would aim for the 1200 when you have the newer 1260 to choose from??? Merry Christmas buddy, have a good one and stay safe on your gorgeous ducatis ❤️🇮🇹👍
@@wsmv the 1260 is a great bike, if I didn't have the 1200 it would be the best bike i have ever owned. It has great attributes - I once drew up a table of comparison, 10 items, the 1260 was better in 7, but it was the other 3 that were the most important to me - especially the way the engine responds, I just love it.
2 things I have to say love the new bike I fully understand the Ducati thing! The last is you are the reason Iv just brought a trk502x for myself as a Christmas present
You will have a blast, they are the best bikes. And arguably as good a tourer as anything else on the market for a bargain price. If I was touring alone I would have stuck with the trk and already miss the ease of riding it. And you've bought the X version which is even better, massive front forks, spoke wheels and a centre stand. Please let me know how you get on with it, I reckon you'll be off exploring further and further because it's so easy and comfortable to ride. Having a decent tank bag is a game changer too, and I managed to fit a tank Lock kit to it to make it easier. I did a video about it so I hope it helps. Thanks for watching, have a great Christmas, and stay safe buddy 👍
@@wsmvI was about to ask you, in that video which ring did you use? As Iv ordered the same bag but didn’t know the ring you chose as I’m following your install! I can’t wait mate tbh me and the Mrs are heading to Dunkirk early 2024 on it
Tiger seal will do the trick, I used sugru because it goes rock solid. If you've ordered the same givi bag it comes with the plastic ring that you need to cut to fit. Dunkirk is amazing, there's a beautiful seafront that we parked the trk on and it looked lovely in the French sunshine. The only other change I made (but didn't film it) was replacing the rear sprocket for a smaller one to reduce the revs at motorway speed but it's not essential, the engine is pretty much bullet proof from what I've found and been told 👍
@@Thatridingguyhow are you finding the benelli?? I'm off to my benelli dealer tomorrow to look at a 1 year old one with 600 on the clock for £4500...time to upgrade my himalayan.
Congratulations. I owned one, and it's an amazing bike to ride. Your forthcoming trip sounds brilliant. Enjoy and take care. (They can be a proper wheelie monster 😬)
You sounded like EpicAdam on the Triumph Scrambler 😂😂😂. Could have been worse, could have got a GS like everyone else 😂. I do love Italian design and have a secret hankering for a Diavel. Always stroke them lovingly when I see them at dealers. Enjoy, good choice 😁 Merry Christmas to you and your biking family 🎄🎅
Morning Phil, happy Christmas mate - lovely new bike, shame you hate it 🤣.. I look down at my tank and it says.........Honda 😅 --- Happy for you mate and look forward to seeing the Ducati spread it's wings.
Merry Christmas mate, hope you have a good one 🍻, yeah I love the bike, I'm a glutton for punishment liking harley davidsons and ducatis 🤣🤣 You meet the nicest people on hondas apparently, clearly true in your case, happy new year mate 😁👍
Thanks John, it's just what I wanted and I got one sooner than I thought I would. Have a great Christmas buddy, best wishes to you and yours for 2024 too 😎👍
@@wsmv That's awesome man - sometimes a plan just works out :D Thanks, and Merry Christmas to you too! :D 2024 is gonna be awesome, I can just feel it :D
@@wsmv You've done it now, the torque is addictive. That Benelli is a cracking bike but l fully understand your reasoning, two up riding needs a bit more power
Mate I genuinely miss the ease of riding the 502, the multistrada needs a lot more concentration, I just felt the trip next year would be a real strain on the benelli because I'm not getting any lighter 🤣
I've just got back from M&Ps in Gorseinon and they'd just sold exactly the same Duke 1200 as yours -- same colour, too. What a machine. I had a good look at it and it's a stunning bit of kit. Well impressed here 👍
@@wsmvthey've got a massive place (covering two sites on opposite sides of the road) with umpteen franchises in Phoenix Way, Gorseinon. They've been there a good few years. Also another big place in Cardiff which they opened a couple of years ago. Well worth a look if you're ever over this way
Great to see you have your mojo back on full beans🎉right up your street that is.... It shows how happy it's making you. Looks like your riding like Kevin sqrance days are coming back 😂😂 Really pleased for your Phil.
Lovely bike. Not as loud as my mate Nigel's though - he had to short shift when we did the track in France and ended up winning to "Mr Smooth" award 😂 Congratulations. Luigi was the Monster. What's this one called?
🤣🤣 would normally have to pay good money for that sort of action 🤣🤣 Yep the monster was called Louigi, this one is named DiGi, after Fabio Di Giannantonio in motogp, the happiest man on the circuit 🤣
I'm not sure I'll end up on a GS even though they are the best at what they do without any doubt, but I reckon a ciuoke of years and I'll be on a multi1260 or even a V4 😍
Whilst the Ducati isn't for me. That's some solid reasoning for upgrade. Especially being two up. Probably my only gripe about 47bhp machines. I keep looking at other bikers for the bigger Iron Butt stuff. Single sided swing arm means no more trying to line the chain adjusters up 😂 The small screen trick works with CB500X's. I had my snap screen off for a bit and it was quieter I just didn't want my neck taking a beating and 80 🤣.
Glad the shorter screen worked for you too, doesn't seem logical but gotta be worth a try. Ah yeah, no more lining up chains, that's my £30 chain monkey useless 🤣🤣
Oranges and pigeons mate, the benelli is an incredible bike and possibly the most bike you will get for the money. I would have another one and actually was torn between a brand new trk702 and the multi. I think I made the right choice but would recommend the trk to anyone 👍
"best bike for the money." I think it's a shame if value is too high a priority in buying a motorcycle. You have obviously come to the same conclusion.
@julianpowell6355 no far from it. Everyone has a budget, and if I'm honest the only reason I changed to the ducati was because I felt riding through Europe 2up and fully loaded was too much to ask of a 46bhp bike, the quality of the bike had no bearing in the decision. I've never hidden my love for ducatis, but that wasn't the main reason for changing. Anyone who looked at, sat on, or rode my benelli were stunned by the build quality and finish, you just have to look at youtube reviews to see how many people have been pleasantly surprised by it. Is the multistrada a better bike? Obviously, is the multistrada the best bike on the market? Quite possibly. But it took the best bike on the market to drag me away from the benelli 😁👍
