People do lots of ownership "test rides" is all. My brother has an 07 DUC Multistrada. He says, "Gotta have sealed bags. Rains a lot. Gotta have a wind screen. Highway is often up to 80 mph AND windy." I've ridden the 90 miles from Palm Bay up to Daytona. Rain sometimes on and off. Wind indeed! The DUC flies in traffic, I must say. But yeah, the '13 was actually first made in 2010, so they have had time to refine it since then. I've ridden full gear in summer in FL and at lights it was HOT, but drivers are not always good, so no FULL gear and it's a real RISK there. Lots of OLD people, no offense to them. So people come off the road because of those reasons as well.
