A total of 20 bikes were tested and grouped into five bike categories: Allrounder, Sport, Big bikes (including R1200R), Enduro/fun, and Tourer/sporttourer.

The winners of each category were then pitted against each other in a final supertest. The R1200R was placed 1st by three out of the six judges and 2nd by a further two judges. The final judge placed the R1200R third.

No wonder it was king of the Alps. They did not have a Ducati in that test.  Wink

Yes they did... but not the Multistrada which might have done well! In the sport class they had the 1098 but it came last in that group so never got to the final.  Bigsmile
