Kevin, reference the Multi1200 vs the GSW1200, I think I am a bit quicker in the twisties on the BMW. While I enjoyed the explosive Ducati engine the handling never quite was able to catch up....at least with me on it. The frame/suspension/handling/engine integration just seems to be better on this BMW. The MultiStrada 1200 seemed to be more a cludge of parts with a monster motor rather than what I expect from a bike with race pedigree. At least with my skill set.
