Introduction:
With a new tagline “license to thrill” , Ducati introduced its new generation Hypermotard . It got a new 821.1 cc motor which produces 110 bhp. and it adds the new fangled additions of the two extra valves per cylinder and the liquid cooling. The chassis has also had a lot of work done to it, with the riding ergonomics much friendlier and more intuitive. Components have also changed, and a Bosch 9MP ABS system is now standard across the range. Not only mechanically smoother, Ducati has employed its electronics to customise the delivery to a rider and/or the conditions. Sport mode is naturally sharp, requiring you to be on your game as you exit a turn or execute a wheelie. Touring mode suits just about every occasion, toning the initial kick down but still giving you the full bifter of the bike’s 110bhp. Urban mode knocks 35bhp off and softens delivery . Hypermotard family has done it again with the latest design which features a stunning looking bike that is joy to ride. It shares technology from Diavel and panigale.
The original dirt bike inspired look has become more sharper with more ground clearance, the high and tapered tail and the narrow sides . its an high performance urban commuter and a touring bike.
