Ducati Multistrada 950 Tyre Size
Ducati’s baby (it’s still 937cc so perhaps not that much of a baby!) Adventure bike runs a 120/70/19 front tyre and a 170/60/17 rear tyre. That’s the same tyre sizes as the BMW R1200GS and R1250GS. So it’s off to a good start.
You can click those links to see all the different tyres available in the sizes for this bike. However below we have recommended what we consider to be the best options for the Multistrada 950.
As motorcycle tyre specialists, accredited by the major manufacturers, we can supply any tyre to you by mail order or you can have them fitted in our London motorcycle workshop.
The Multo 950 runs common Adventure-bike tyre sizes and so you have plenty of choices, whether you want a tyre for Commuting, Trail Riding, Touring or some proper Off-Roading.
Ducati Multistrada 950 History
Introduced in 2017, the Multistrada 950 is only a few ccs shy of the original Multistrada 1000 but it sits in Ducati’s range as the entry-level Adventure bike. It uses the same engine as the 939 Hypermotard and has fewer gadgets than the Multistrada 1200. If you’re commuting or trail riding, you couldn’t want for more.

Are your tyre pressures letting you down?
We couldn’t find a tyre pressure gauge that was well-built, easy to get on-and-off the valve without pressure loss and could stand up to day-to-day abuse in our workshop. So we found a manufacturer to build one to our exacting standards.
We’re confident this is the best motorcycle pressure gauge out there. That’s why it comes with a 3-year, no-nonsense, money back guarantee.
Whether you want a digital tyre pressure gauge or a good old-fashioned analogue pressure gauge, we’ve got a gauge for you. Now you can quickly and easily check your pressures, to keep your bike handling well and to ensure you stay safe.
