multistrada 1100 rotor spacing

[hackers2r]

Does anyone here happen to know the outside to outside distance of the front rotors on an multistrada 1100? Will regular 320mm ducati rotors work on a 748 front wheel? Someone wants to change wheels and I'm trying to help them with the brake change. Thanks.

AFAIK, all the common production bikes of that era shared rotors.

So long as the 748 isn't an R-model, it'll work just fine.  R models got a 15mm offset and all other late-model 6-bolt, 320mm rotors got 10mm.

[hackers2r]

Right.  But on the ST4, the rotor bolts to the wheel spokes, not the hub.  

edit: the bike I've been meaning is the multistrada 1100.

The MTS 1000 & 1100 have the only spoke-mounted rotors on them as far as I know.  They're specific to the larger air-cooled MTS bikes.  No other interchanges.

So are you effectively telling me that there's no easy swap?  A 748 wheel won't bolt up in terms of rotors lining up and other spacing issues?

[Duck-Stew]

Ahhh...  This is a wheel swap question.  I'm sorry that I mis-read it at first.  I can't confirm what would swap w/regard to that. 

My apologies, but I have nothing on that...

I would probably check on a multistrada forum since that's the bike you're talking about.

not blowing you off, but i would assume other mts owners have done wheel swaps before.
