I stopped caring about both feet down on the Hyper. Just one leg down (usually the left). Because if the surface is uneven you will fall when you realize, oh shit, I can't reach the ground! It's happened to me once and that was enough to adjust and just stick to one leg down method.
I’ve always thought that bike looks so good, and now seeing someone exactly my hight on it with that lower seat it seems quite doable. Speaking of sweet looking bikes, the Husqvarna Nuda 900 is one I’d like to see in person.
Bikes have gotten so small, this is a god send! I have one of these on order so my 34" inseam and 6'4"/194cm frame will finally fit "comfortably" on a bike.
@@hypermotardking I will likely get the raised seat as well, heard it's padded and more comfortable, but haven't been able to find a single review online :(
@@hypermotardking haha, I got a collection that even 650ib would be proud of, but I couldn't be bothered "reviewing" shit, I let the pros like you do it. :-)
This is the SP model. The seat height on the regular 950 Hypermotard is an inch lower. Put the lowered seat on that and you could put both feet flat on the ground. .
@@hypermotardkingso im first time bike owner before that i have never driven a bike just purchased ducati hyper motard SP and when i sit on it i can get my ball of my feet down perfectly at 1.83cm but i do think at the heavier spectrum of a tall persons weight it pushes the bike lower when you sit on it.
There's hope for me after all, at 5,7 the tall height over even the std Hyper 950 put me off - but having had a Hyper 796,and 'strada 821, I'd love to have one of these new 950s - such awesome bikes!
Thanks for the clip. I love this bike but was worried about the seat height. We are exactly the same measurements so I’m reassured.
Awesome..
I am 5'-8" and ended up with the lower seat with the Daytona Mstar gtx boots that has 1" insole.
What a diffrent!
Every little but helps 👍🏻

Hahha.. so true! Happened to me a few times. Slow controlled fall is ok in my eye 😂

I had to take a chance/risk on the Hyper and its height but I loved it too much 👍🏻👍🏻
Having ridden my RVE for a week I have ordered the Ducati lowered seat… pleased to see this post 👍
Good stuff

With your height you shouldn’t have any problems 👍🏻

The suspension is raised/higher on the SP hence the extra height of the bike.. which why the lowered seat is so popular.
I have the same „Problem“ thanks man for sharing👍🏻
Glad i could help.. 👍🏻
What tail tidy does it have? It looks really clean and doesn’t look like it’ll melt the indicator lights.
@@AM-uk7jv Its an ebay one.. there is a video on it
This video is very helpful for everyone 👍👍👍👍
You’re welcome
This was super helpful thank you
Thanks.. 👍🏻👍🏻
Thank you so much for this useful for someone 5.5
One question though where did you find the gas cap? I mean the basic from factory is a
simple one
No problem - the gas cap is made by TWM. Check my other videos on the install 👍🏻
I’m 6’ and just put the lowered seat on. Much better for me. Feel I’m sitting more in the bike as opposed to on top of it.
I wouldn’t have thought at 6ft you’d have any problems 👍🏻👍🏻
@@hypermotardking Definitely the tallest bike I’ve owned.

For all us average sized men.. 👍🏻
Nice Jeep shirt man. I have a 2021 Hyper and a Gladiator.
Hahaha.. its Juventus Football Team (Italian)
Nice video 👍🏻 really helpful, simple but answers the question many of us short ass*s want to know ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
No worries.. been living with that lower seat for past 2 years and I been fine 👍🏻
Where did u get the lowered seat from? What sort of money did it cost?
Ducati Dealer or online. Its about £159 I think
Good video!!
@@rubensuarez6070 Thanks
What’s the short one like for comfort & can you move backwards & forwards on it. The last gen low seat was horrendous. Thanks
Moving about is still possible and i do it from time to time for a stretch. The comfort is a little harder, but you dont notice it that much..
@@hypermotardking probably just get my seat re covered with better foam when it comes. They also do a racing seat, supposed to be softer.
@@mrste1250 Thats a good shout 👌🏼
I'm 196 (6'5") and I'm worried to look like a circus bear on the Hypermotard. This prevents me from buying one. What do you think?
The SP does have a taller saddle height when stock.. depends if you want comfort on a Hyper or cramped on a SuperSport?
Maybe you could share some inches of your height with me
Hi what tail tidy have you got please.? I pick my new sp up this week so that's the first thing that's getting changed cheers
Congrats mate.. check my other video, I’ve done an install on it
Hello! Did you do anything to your exhaust?
I’ve had 3 different exhausts since this video - all reviewed on my channel 👍🏻👍🏻
is the lower seat any softer than the standard SP seat? It's too stiff for my bony ass. Thanks.
Lol.. i wouldn’t say its softer.. its the same feeling for me but im small and relatively bony too so acceptable 👍🏻
@@hypermotardking thanks!
Probably maxtime is about 2hours riding then arse gets sore 😂😂
Its about the same
Where did you get the seat from?
Ducati dealer.. seen them on Ebay too for same price
With a 30in inseam I definitely going to need the lowered seat.
Just gives that added assurance
Can the sp seat fit or be used in a hypermotard standard version? Because i wanted standard hyper950 to be taller seat height. Thanks
Yes it can.. 👍🏻👍🏻
@@hypermotardking thank you buddy. Ride safe
Helpful vid thanks
👍🏻👍🏻
hi can the bike have an off road version of tires ?
You can add any tire tou want.. from knobbly off-road to full on slicks - the bike can do everything
How is possibile, are you 170 cm? I’m not able to touch in this way on the floor 🥲
I’m about 170-173cm.. add in extra inch with boots and its just about safe for me with lowered seat 👍🏻
It has less to do with how tall you are and more about your inseam. He probably has longer legs than you
This video will do very well
Interesting
Thanks
im 175cm stock was high so buying low seat
Good idea.. play it safe 👍🏻
@@hypermotardking how about yout height??
@@jaedworks im about 173cm..

Lol.. you’re one of the lucky ones 😂😂
@@hypermotardking do you think that the bike is too small?
@@markjpeg736 Far from it.. ive seen tall 6ft guys on an MT10 and be cramped up.. plenty of room on a Hyper

@@rcgamer2801 With lowered seat u be fine
Looks like you may have too much oil in the bike, otherwise nice video. 👍🏾
Interesting.. it's a brand new bike from dealer, so will check.
Sort the mic out 👍👍
Should be done now in latest video
I am out....
😂😂
I think it’s called the ladies seat haha
You be surprised how tall some ladies are these days 😂
Nice bike and pants!
😂😂👍🏻👍🏻
