Full Off Road Testing 2022 Ducati HyperMotard 950 SP
Вставка
- Опубліковано 27 вер 2024
- So with winter weather truly here in the UK in November 2022, and having completed some basic off-road training, it was time to take the Hyper across Wales and see if can handle the grass, water and mud.
I got the help of Bob from www.adventurer... who was surprised when I turned up on a Hyper with 60/40 Pirelli MT60-RS tyres more suited to tarmac/light gravel - but was happy to give it a go.
I had an excellent day and the bike performed flawlessly (albeit one fall on soft wet grass - no damage done). Yes it's not designed for it and I wasn't going full speed sending it corner to corner and getting the back end out, but I had a great laugh filming with Bob and he was spot on with the pictures.
Bob runs "AdventureRide" as a personal guide for groups of 1, 2, 3 or 4 - either on your own bikes or bikes supplied by Bob.

Great vid followed by days of detailing, which I would find quite satisfying, big up to you for taking the 950 off road.👍👍👍👍👍🇬🇧
So true.. I did enjoy the detailing part 😂😂
bloody amazing , you making full use of that stunning machine
Just trying to prove if one-bike can do it all..
It's much harder in person than it looks on the camera.
Hat off to you sir, job well done!
Yeah sure is.. 👍🏻👍🏻
Really enjoyed this vid, always knew the SP can do anything, great job. 😊😊😊😊👍🏻
Thanks 🤛🏼🤛🏼
Really putting the Hyper through the ringer! Well Done 👏 💪😎🫡
Was a good laugh..
On one hand I'd never do that to my Ducati RVE or any hyper but you've proved how good they are as a bike all the haters are gonna be more angry
Lol.. one of the reasons I did this - too many “hibernate” their bikes over winter when then can be used with some tweaks 👍🏻👍🏻
I've wrapped it in cotton wool
@@kindnessalwayscomesback2419 😂😂
I love my rve🎉🎉🎉❤❤❤❤
How do they say it there, proper mental! I don’t envy the cleaning you’ve got to do however kudos on the experience. Loved watching something I 100% will never do on my Hyper. LOL
😂😂.. thanks - the cleaning experience certainly was both time consuming and theraputic 👍🏻
That is the most beautiful countryside I have ever seen, other than the fact that it looks like it's been raining for a week straight!
Hahahaa… yeah Wales is beautiful
Great video! The shot at 7:53 is just beautiful
Thanks.. 👍🏻👍🏻
Thanks for sharing this experience. I have always been wondering what it would be running the 950 with Mutant type tyres and taking it off road... Now I see that even with these tyres fitted it's tough and both weight and other settings are playing a big part in keeping it all clean and tidy.
I always ran my 950 (SP 2019-2021, RVE 2021-2024) with the Supercorsa SP also offroad, driving about 1.500 kilometers a year in Slovenia and a part of it offroad. I was always wondering how much better suited tyres would benefit fit me and this video clearly shows it does something but there are other factors at play here.
Very interested to see what my new 698 Mono RVE can do and maybe even fit it with Mutant type tyres at some point to see how it performs in terrain.
Thanks again for sharing!
I’ll be repeating this on my 698 too 😂😂
Looking forward to the video@@hypermotardking !
Man if the hypermotard came with spokes or an 18-21 version it would absolutely slap
@@kommandant.357 yep agree
I really enjoyed this video more than I should have 😂. Love this bike going to look at 2 of them one is 2021 and a 2023. Any tips?
Thanks.. If you can push an SP then get it.. its great for fast road and can mix it on track.. commands a higher sell on price if you ever get bored.. try and get one with some extra’s thrown on 👍🏻
Hats off to you. Wow I’m scared to get mine wet 😂
😂😂.. in the wet is horrible, but off road is kind fun
the footage of the sheep running around is awesome hahahaha
Bloody things are stubborn 😂😂
In the nicest possible way, I think your nuts 🤣, But you had a good time and that's what it's all about. I'd of enjoyed a aftermath video of cleaning it down too 👍
😂😂.. detailing bikes appear to be a thing - alot of people have said the same thing 👍🏻👍🏻
@@hypermotardking I love a detailing video I find it really satisfying, maybe it's my ocd, I think that's why I nearly had a melt down when I seen this video 🤣, I enjoy your videos, especially the install ones 👍
@@danielstafford7255 Thanks.. i might do another detail one 🤔🤔
Great to watch. I’m tempted to do something similar on my KTM 690 smc r
Do it.. but with a tutor/guide to help if u get stuck 😂
@@hypermotardking Oh for sure I wouldn’t do it on my own. Id defo go arse over tit lol. I have an old mate that’s done green lane rides before.
Bob recommended 18psi huh , I would get another advisor if i were you. Bob is a little left.
Hahaha.. I can only go on what the guide said for a bike not designed for these condition..
Excellent video thanks subscribed
Awesome and Thanks 👍🏻👍🏻
What tires are you using, im trying to find ones for my hyper but cant find many with a speed rating over 115
off-road: pirelli mt60-rs
fast road: Avon 3d xtremes AC1/AC2
track : Avon slicks AC1/AC3
Looks super fun!!! 😂
..and you got better off road conditions in India with it being dry - Do It
Cool, now i know i can take such a Sumo to my garden 👌
😂😂😂 👍🏻
Well it’s a dirt road so not really off road but still I wouldn’t do it with my hyper, I don’t even ride mine in the rain. Just don’t want to get it dirty, I have other bikes for that.
Dirt, gravel, mud.. all classed as non-tarmac.. will be trying some more for sure 😂🔥
Where is
adventureride.co.uk
Not enough traction in mud with those tires..
dry dirt only with thsoe
Yeah.. need to try those TKC80’s next time
This is outrageous, this shouldn't be here, 🖖
😂😂.. thats the only reason i done it - no1 else has
Just goes to show; when the rain gods piss down - make mud pies!
Its like manufacturers are fixated on making a bike for every single scenario and every single different person when most can do everything
@@hypermotardking Your documented adventure proves your point. If nothing else, from a marketing perspective, they could use this footage; with appropriate rewards, of course. All the Tuscan hills, tits & feathers and smug GQ mugs can't sell better than: Hey there boy & girls! You too can split lanes AND ride thru muck on your Hypermotard. This video can open up a whole new advert tactic for the bike(s).
@@Ramon51650 I’m trying.. its hard to get any traction with DucatiUK when my dedicated channel has to compete eith so many other Motorcycle channels with 100K subs and thousands of viewers that review 100’s of different bikes 😭
@@hypermotardking Point taken, BUT not even Chris Northover, who loves dirt, has done nothing this extensive, nor from an owner's perspective. Those staged tests on Gran Canaria or Jerez don't give the potential buyer a true demonstration of what the bike can do with some imagination, prep and sense of fun. Most owners aren't going to flog this bike on a track, me included. It's too far away to ride this bike or worse yet, invest in transportation for me to do a day or weekend at Thunderhill when I can ride the back roads and still feel good about myself. This video proves that the Hyper is under-marketed. Sales of this model can only increase if the y alter their sales pitch. The hardcore dicks are going to call it too fat, blah-blah-blah. Then walk on. The bike is a chubby, but it still handled those mud ponds.
@@Ramon51650 100%
need 19' front wheel
Interesting.. what does that give..? isnt it down to tyres?
@@hypermotardking better offroad capabilities, it will be perfect GS without the weight.
👍❤
Thanka 👍🏻
NO! Your Ducati Hypermotard SP is not made for off-road. Get an Aprilia Tuareg or similar for the green lanes. Your SP is much to pretty to hammer in the dirt.
Mate.. it took about 2-days of cleaning/detailing to get all that mud and crap out.. 😭😭
@@hypermotardking Paper air filter? Throw it in the trash and get a new one.
@@garydrummond9129 Sprint P08.. but yeah I better check it - good call 👍🏻
I love that you did this, not afraid to use the bike. Heck yeah man
Thats the point right - work with what you got with 👍🏻👍🏻
Maybe 19 front 17 trst with 50/50 tires? True dula purpose hooligan motorcycle? one that could STILL haul ass on a track or canyon road
How does a 19” make it easier for the bike/me off-road..??
Looks like great fun. Can't wait to get some Pirelli Scorpion STR Rally tires on my 698 Mono and try it out as well!
I thought about the same tyre on the 698..
would love some spoke wheels to go a bit crazier being a lighter bike
@@hypermotardking Possibly yes. Though I feel the 17" rims would be a greater limitation that having spokes instead of cast wheels. You'd need to go real hard to start flexing those rims, but yeah - shit could happen regardless :D
One careful owner lol
😂😂😂😂
What undercarriage protection do you have fitted?
Its a custom fit of an Sw-motech guard from an 821 - Check my other videos.. I’ve done an install/review on it 👍🏻
Hyge glaring problems if thinking this is the answer for a hooligan bike on and off pavement. First is TIRES ,,,,without some serious offroad tires it will be shit but WITH some good knobbies it will work somewhat even inspite of the 17" wheel. So thr heartbreadker is setting u for the dirt leaves it shat on the pavement....I guess with a spare set of wheels and yu are good doing quick change? A set of spoked wheels 19 from 17 rear full on knobbies could be incredible! then poppapvement meats on for the canyons and one bike does it all stellar....sort of not coumtomg tje swap routines
I do have a spare set of wheels (17”).. haven’t checked about the option of going to a 19” on a single sided swingarm.. but something to bear in mind for winter ‘23 😂
Hahaha this is incredible, the landscape too I’m especially jelous
Cheers Bro.. 🤛🏼🤛🏼
Definitely brave taking it off road Matey. I’m not sure I’m ready to that on the Multistrada just yet, good video 👍
The Multi’s designed for it - Its an easy winter video.. get on it 💪🏼
Bloody heavy to pick up by yourself when bike is on its side, I speak fro experience..............😉👍👍👍👍👍👍🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧
Good 200Kg deadlift training needed 😭😭
My dream is haypermotard
Plenty of time yet to get one 👍🏻
Reality is that, any bike can go off-road as long as it’s tires are off-road purposes.
Most bikes technically have been off-road when they crash 😂😂
I would take somebody else’s Hyper . Not mine. Great video
😂😂 thanks 👍🏻
Almost got one of these but they are not really meant to go off road.
Nope.. but i better off road rider than me can make it work 😂
The first thing I would do is back off on the suspension to zero, would make it a lot more rideable
Yeah.. It was literally in Track spec and didn’t do anything on the suspension settings
@@hypermotardking remove all compression
Keep rebound
Is it a pain swapping between street and off road tires?
I got a 2nd set of wheels which makes it so much easier.. takes like 15mins
#snowcat
Probably overkill for UK.. we get like 2 days snow a year 😂😂
3:09 🤣 this is awesome!
😂😂 overthinking it and then ran out if time and just went straight 😂
Wrong bike for that shite I'm afraid, too scary, get something more duel sportish and lighter so that it will not not crush your leg when you come off, and you will come off the thing when you least expect it!!! This will end badly.....
It was a test.. tried it out.. something i won’t be doing on my own and not in terrain this bad for sure 😂
Glad to hear it. I speak from bitter experience, but that is another story.@@hypermotardking
Mate can I ask, what tires are you running here? Cheers 🫱🏻🫲🏼🇦🇺
Pirelli MT60-RS tyres.. like a 60/40 split
