Having ridden the latest multistrada too, I think this report was a fair assessment. I also agree that the XR wins, hands down!!

Very interesting comparison.  Have been waiting to see these two bikes compared back to back.
Thanks for posting!!

What they found out is exactly what I did the day I went to a Ducati Dealership to buy my new Multistrada. That night I had a S1000XR parked in my garage.

No surprises, any objective reviewer that has ridden both would come to the same conclusion. A test ride on the Multistrada confirmed that the engine was not at all smooth. One would have to learn to ride around the abrupt power band.
