About Ducati Hypermotard 2015
Introducing the 2015 Ducati Hypermotard, a standout in the supermotard category that masterfully blends performance with playful agility. Known for its aggressive styling and spirited riding dynamics, this motorcycle is tailored for enthusiasts who crave a thrilling ride, whether it's carving through urban landscapes or tackling winding backroads. With its heritage steeped in Ducati's racing DNA, the Hypermotard embodies the perfect balance of street performance and off-road flair, making it a versatile option for riders who appreciate both worlds.
At the heart of the Hypermotard lies a potent 821cc L-twin engine that delivers an exhilarating 110 horsepower at 9,250 RPM, coupled with a robust torque output of 89 Nm at 7,750 RPM. This powerful engine, combined with a slick 6-speed gearbox and a slipper clutch, ensures a responsive and engaging ride. The liquid-cooled, four-stroke powerhouse is equipped with a Magneti Marelli electronic fuel injection system, providing precise throttle response and enhancing the overall riding experience. The bike's lightweight design, tipping the scales at just 175 kg (385.8 lbs), contributes to a remarkable power-to-weight ratio of 0.6286 HP/kg, allowing for nimble handling and effortless cornering, making it a joy to ride in both city traffic and on twisty roads.
Ducati has packed the Hypermotard with advanced features and technology that elevate its performance and rider experience. The tubular steel trellis frame provides excellent rigidity while keeping the weight low, allowing for quick changes in direction. The 43mm USD front forks and fully adjustable rear monoshock ensure that the suspension is capable of soaking up bumps while providing optimal feedback to the rider. Safety is enhanced with a dual-channel ABS system, offering confident braking performance with radially mounted four-piston calipers on the front and a two-piston setup on the rear. With a seat height of 870 mm, the bike caters to a variety of rider statures, while its bold color options, including a striking Ducati Red and sleek Dark Stealth, ensure that you’ll turn heads wherever you go.
PROs:
- Powerful Engine: The 821cc L-twin engine delivers impressive performance and exhilarating acceleration.
- Lightweight and Agile: Weighing just 175 kg, the Hypermotard offers nimble handling and excellent maneuverability.
- Advanced Suspension and Brakes: Fully adjustable suspension and ABS-equipped brakes provide confidence and comfort in various riding conditions.
CONs:
- Seat Height: At 870 mm, the seat may be too tall for shorter riders, limiting accessibility for some.

- Fuel Capacity: With a 16-liter tank, the fuel range may be less than some touring-focused motorcycles, requiring more frequent stops on longer journeys.
