2020 Ducati Multistrada 950 S: A Ducati for all roads and no roads

The Multistrada has long been the Swiss Army knife in the Ducati stable, but what happens when you downsize the engine and the price?

2020 Ducati Multistrada 950 S

Ducati's Multistrada has always been the secret weapon in the brand's lineup.

In its larger-displacement form, it's done everything from crossing continent to winning the Pikes Peak hill climb.

Now we've got a smaller Multi, with the same motor that we've seen in the Hypermotard and smaller Monsters.

You'd be forgiven for thinking that a smaller motor means a lesser motorcycle, but you'd be wrong.

The Multistrada 950 S is one of the best all-around motorcycles you can buy today.

It's tall for good visibility, relatively narrow to allow for easy lane splitting and comfortable enough for all-day riding.

It's got great brakes paired with advanced rider aids to make it fast and friendly in all conditions.

Hell, it even has tubeless spoked wheels to make the inevitable flat tires easy to fix.

I Got an Early Look at Intel's Glass Packaging Tech for Faster Chips
Rahul Manepalli, right, Intel's module engineering leader, shows a glass substrate panel before it's sliced into the small rectangles that will be bonded to the undersides of hundreds of test processors. The technology, shown here at Intel's CH8 facility in Chandler, Arizona, stands to improve performance and power consumption of advanced processors arriving later this decade. Glass substrates should permit physically larger processors comprised of several small "chiplets" for AI and data center work, but Intel expects they'll trickle down to PCs, too.
