  • The Ducati Hypermotard 950 is truly an experience. It has many flaws, one could find a million reasons for not wanting to get one. And yet… There is one big reason why this, despite its shortcomings, is has become one of my favourite motorcycles of all time! Enjoy!

    Really well done video. As a 2023 hypermotard and 2022 panigale v4 owner i find the hyper more of a challenge to ride hard and smooth which is why i love it

    I picked up my hypermotard 950 for my birthday this past August and it was one of the best - worst financial decisions I ever made 😂.
    If you get one enjoy it and of course get the termignoni exhaust 😉

    I got myself a standard Hypermotard earlier this year, and it's super rare here in Mumbai. Can completely relate to everything you've said about the bike! It's a piece of (noisy) art.

    Excellent video. The script was good, with a quirky twist, and very informative. The drone shots added perspective. Follow mode while riding would be even better, though tricky in that area.
    The Hypermotard is instantly recognizable from its pretty red tubular frame. That single-sided swingarm screams 'monster'.

    • @KRANKiT
      @KRANKiT  Рік тому +2

      Thank you! Unfortunately follow me mode doesn’t really work well in places like that, or with road speeds. Whenever I can I try to get someone else to ride the bike so I can fly the drone chasing them, but this is a solo operation :) gotta work within my limits

      If you can, try sitting on one. The thin seat does help with the seat height

    Bought my RVE (because you get that QS and AB ;), and a cool livery) this year, and spent the whole summer blasting around Schwarzwald and the Swiss Alps. The tighter and curvier a road gets, the better this insane machine gets. Most fun you can have with your pants on.

    The hypermotard is a bit like those of us who were fitting roadgoing rubber to our half litre motocross bikes in the early 80's. Its a bit heavier and it grunts a bit more.
    It is a very civilised bike, if a bit high geared for commuting. Where it does excell is in the tight and twisty mountain passes.
    I think you should go ride it again after it is broken in (1st service) when the tach doesnt change colour.
    The party really starts at 6.5k and happily up to 10k.
    My 2020SP is an absolute pleasure to ride.
    That said, I'm stumped as to why Ducati put torquelimiting in the ECU that prevents clutch up wheelies, and does not allow the rear ABS to be turned off.
    That said, power wheelies up to fourth are a reality
