2012 Ducati Multistrada Pikes Peak Edition (U.S.) - Click above for high-res image gallery
To celebrate Greg Tracy's win at the Pikes Peak Hill Climb last year, Ducati is releasing a commemorative special edition of its Multistrada 1200S for the U.S. and U.K.
Pikes Peak Edition bikes will get a custom paint scheme based on the Ducati Corse livery, along with an anodized black engine and black wheels with red pinstriping. To make things a little louder and introduce more carbon fiber, the bike will be delivered across the pond with an EU-approved carbon fiber silencer from Termignoni and a low profile carbon fiber windscreen.
*Update: Sadly, we won't be getting the exhaust system here in the States, but we will get a unique numbered engine crankcase cover. We've added a U.S.-specific image gallery below and included both U.S. and UK press releases after the break.
To top it off, Ducati is throwing on a carbon fiber front fender and a special seat with custom commemorative stitching(!). Ducati will start hawking the Pikes Peak Edition Multistradas here in the States in June for $21,995 and in the UK in May, with a starting price of just over $27k.
