Overview

Introducing the 2021 Ducati Hypermotard 950 SP, a supermoto that embodies the spirit of Italian performance and engineering excellence. With its aggressive styling, lightweight chassis, and potent powertrain, the Hypermotard 950 SP is positioned as an exhilarating option for riders seeking thrills both on and off the beaten path. As part of Ducati's iconic Hypermotard line, this motorcycle is designed for those who crave excitement, whether carving through city streets or exploring winding mountain roads. With a distinct SP livery and a plethora of cutting-edge features, it is as much a work of art as it is a high-performance machine. At the heart of the Hypermotard 950 SP lies a robust 937cc V2 engine that produces an impressive 114 horsepower at 9,000 RPM and a torque of 96 Nm at 7,250 RPM. This four-stroke powerhouse offers an exhilarating riding experience with a thrilling rush of acceleration and an unmistakable Ducati roar. The advanced Ride by Wire throttle system ensures precise control over the bike's responsiveness, allowing riders to seamlessly adapt to any riding condition. Coupled with a smooth-shifting 6-speed gearbox and a slipper clutch, the Hypermotard delivers exceptional performance, making it a joy to ride on twisty roads or during spirited track sessions. Ducati has equipped the Hypermotard 950 SP with high-end features that elevate its performance and comfort. The fully adjustable Ohlins suspension system, consisting of 48mm USD forks in the front and a progressive linkage monoshock at the rear, ensures superb handling and stability across various terrains. The lightweight tubular steel trellis frame contributes to the bike's nimbleness, while the advanced braking system—featuring radially mounted four-piston calipers up front and ABS-equipped single-piston calipers at the rear—ensures confident stopping power. The 198 kg (436.5 lbs) weight, along with a seat height of 870 mm (34.3 inches), allows for easy maneuverability and control, making it an agile companion for any adventure. **

Pros

  • Powerful Engine: The 937cc V2 engine delivers exhilarating performance and responsive throttle response.
  • Advanced Suspension: Ohlins fully adjustable suspension provides exceptional handling and comfort tailored to rider preferences.
  • Lightweight and Nimble: With a weight of just 198 kg, the Hypermotard is easy to handle, making it perfect for urban riding and twisty roads.

Cons

  • Seat Height: At 870 mm, the seat height may be challenging for shorter riders, potentially affecting comfort and stability at stops.
  • Limited Fuel Capacity: With a 14.5-liter (3.83-gallon) tank, longer rides may require more frequent stops for refueling.
  • Pricey: As a premium motorcycle, the Hypermotard 950 SP comes with a higher price tag, which may not fit all budgets.
