2016 Ducati Hypermotard 939 SP Review (First Ride)

We've been waiting a long time for this one, it's the launch of the 2016 Ducati Hypermotard 939 SP. Luke's having trouble with the front wheel, keeping it down that is... For a full written review: www.bikeworld.c...

[@1275porsche]

No probs touring on a Hyper, fitted the touring screen to my 821 and did London to Prague ! awesome machine and zero issues.

[@ricksmead2530]

did the screen make a big difernce? i just ordered a screen but they dont seem big enough to make much diference

[@erickg3508]

i heard they sell a bigger one

[@anxiousappliance]

It does - you're so close to it it reaaly takes the wind off your chest and shoulders. standard screen Just out of curiosity I switched to the MRA - it's about the same and less expensive. Maybe a little less wind noise as it's lower.

[@intpmj]

I just bought one of these yesterday. Bike is unreal. So much fun.

[@downshift83]

The hypers look like so much fun!

[@jpsv9531]

Nice review and good editing. Great to have the riding footage with commentary over… professional.

[@michaeljkasnter]

I own the SP with the Race exhaust- insanity!!!!

[@LambChopRides]

getting quiet tempted with one of these...

[@WStar4Life]

Hopefully they fixed all the issues that they had with the 821.

[@Na2gumiBlogspot]

SP is a must! Standard is really for blokes that don't push and are on the touring side

[@stevenswm9844]

Sooo many bikes... sooo little money! 😡

[@ApriliaRacer14]

Thoroughly enjoyed this video!

[@moviebod]

Brilliant enthusiastic review. You need to have a caption with your name at the beginning of the videos, so we know who you are, because we will be seeing a lot more of you in future. I am sure. Keep up the good work! I mean....everyone know Clarkson :)

[@andyinzuerich]

Thanks for the review, really informative and useful. Now I can't wait to ride the Hypermotard.

[@CambodiaAutoDealer]

It's around 21,000$ and Hyperstrada is around 23,000$ in Cambodia.

[@MrAndrew1953]

What about if you're 5'8"? Seat too high? Can you get it lowered? Fuel gauge included or fuel warning light only? Looks very addictive. Hope you can get a larger tank.

[@pompon4374]

so good. please review more.

[@ClutchFirst]

This bike is an absolute beauty. So much Carbon fiber goodness. #droolmachine

[@8tavian999]

Snowkitten will love this bike:>

[@honzo007]

going to Ducati launch with KTM lugage... trolling or coincidence? ;)

[@ApriliaRacer14]

honzo007 and Kawasaki leathers.....

[@duffman5z]

Really nice review, well done

[@Gautam454]

Awesome review. I want to ride one so bad!

[@mgpfire]

Lets hope it wont break down every day like 2015 model did for snowcat

[@gregormiller4037]

I just wish Yu Tubular would have a 'watched' button. After watching this 4 times, I still can't decide thumbs up'r down.

[@doopmaidoop22]

what is the name of the background song played at 2.51mins?

[@garylowe8601]

The wheels on the SP are gorgeous. Great bike but expensive.

[@lukemich12]

The name of the bike is hilarious I didn't believe the title of the video at first I had to google it lol

[@Willy_Milano]

Great review of a wonderful bike, Luke. Do you suppose it could easily be converted to a decent touring, or even double purpose, motorcycle? I'd seriously consider buying it if I knew I could depend on it for different porposes.

[@BikeWorldTVshow]

Hey Willy, Luke's no longer with the show. Why don't you go for the Hyperstrada 939

[@ilhmptme9885]

At first i had problem to pick either to choose 939 or 939 SP. Consider ohlin and others i choose the SP. Well its a wise decision. Just came back touring from Singapore to Krabi, Thailand and back again. Oh boy i tell you its a nice bike. To hell what will people say when i put touring pack on SP it still look nice. Good job ducati.

[@BikeWorldTVshow]

Nice!

[@VespertiliKildem]

"sell my body for cash" what ahahah

[@balsara675]

male products

[@hansenallan84]

Lol awsome reviews as usual. Very entertaining and informative!

[@fueltoblaze1554]

When he says precise throttle what he actually means is snatchy on-off throttle. I had the out going SP model with the full termi and didn't enjoy the throttle even on road mode, let alone race

[@MrKdr500]

+Fuel to Blaze they are snatchy because they are lean, put a fuel controller on like a power commander and it will fix it.

[@mukulshajidas9624]

Pretty dope video! You just earned a new subscriber.

[@saschakempf7463]

you are so Right it is hard to decided which bike i should buy. But you have also Right if i buy the standart i will hate me if i see sombody with an SP... so now it´s time to go on the street and sell my Body:-)

[@JWStreeter]

Inpractical for a supermoto but I'd by lying if I said this wasn't close to my dream bike

[@michaelostendorf5411]

Beautiful bike.

[@SirRecon]

I'm a dirt bike guy at heart, so I'm used to that seat ergo setup, would this bike be ok 8 hours a day

[@ernestopicazo189]

Recon Roger yes, but you might want a seat upgrade and a mild windscreen

[@DoubleYouPee1]

What about the Hyperstrada 939?

[@ernestopicazo189]

DoubleYouPee is almost the same but with a plushier seat

[@lozeck16]

It would be great if you subtitled your videos to Spanish, they are very good, 500 million Spanish speakers would appreciate it indeed. The vast majority of motorcycle tests in Spanish are terrible. Cheers!

[@BikeWorldTVshow]

We'll look into it Carlos

[@lozeck16]

Bike World thanks!

[@ClutchFirst]

Saw Baronvongrumble and his buddy. lol

[@BlueHokage]

I was just about to mention that! lol

[@kevinm4x]

Always the SP model, we can't all get the expensive model, so it would be nice if you reviewed the base model

[@Castlevi3w]

+Kevin Max De Cicco pmsl!

[@larjkok1184]

You didn’t like the first half of the video?

[@Framesforgames]

Are they reliable though? Time will tell i guess.

[@9mmArts]

+Fredrik Peterson if its using the same electronic package, i doubt it after seeing snowcats ducati fail on him multiple times

[@KingLuis1985]

+Meterz. if the hyper snowcat had uses the same electronics as the monster, then it is something specific to snowcat. otherwise a lot of people including myself would be having issues.

[@BikeWorldTVshow]

+Meterz. These bikes have complex electronics and Snowcat's cameras aren't rolling 100% of the time for us to know the full story. In other words, we don't know if him modifying his Hyper has caused all of his issues.

[@SuperVistaprint]

+King Luis yeah...i don´t know what was wrong with snowcats bikes, mine was just fine for the 14k km i had it.

[@9mmArts]

Bike World tbh might just be an unlucky model

[@jmdc33]

I'm 6'4, am I going to be too tall for this aggressive riding position?

[@ernestopicazo189]

John Clow nope, you will be good

[@AzTechGFX]

I'm contemplating between this and the 959

[@Obee270]

I wouldn't bother unless you ride the 959 and absolutely love it. the heat on the 959 will roast you.

[@AzTechGFX]

Dejas Monroe Really? would the motard be the better choice?

[@Obee270]

+Srib For street riding definitely. I'm not sure how people tolerate the 959 or 899 on the road.

[@bikersquest]

Is that a Wemoto neck buff ;D

[@SanFranciscoRiderr]

great bike !

[@freedomd333]

loved background music, may i ask what song is it? Cheers Luke

[@BikeWorldTVshow]

+freedomd333 Which one do you like?

[@freedomd333]

+Bike World the one at 02:54, when you poped wheelie on:)

[@koogymysta7029]

Whats the name of the song i want it too

[@koogymysta7029]

whats the name of the song i want it too at 02:54

[@egor.glasov]

+1, Please send the name of the song, it sounds great

[@SirJambo14]

Love this bike, but I really wouldn't call 200kg light weight... 'Pure' Supermotos are half that weight.

[@ernestopicazo189]

SirJambo and most of them have about half the power and engine

[@WilliamStewart1]

SirJambo It's roughly 100 more lbs than my KTM 690 SMC. I kist ordered one of these yesterday amd after having a demo for a day, I can tell you it honesty doesn't feel that much heavier. Ducati did a great job balancing the weight on it. You can feel the difference for sure, but it's not as bad as you'd think. The power difference is way larger than the weight in my opinion, makes my 690 feel very slow.

[@HOOLIGANfilmz]

I want one!

[@ajaylegend8163]

Wearing a KTM backpack to Ducati launch! Savage Life :P :D @0:32

[@YZ250er]

Gah I freaking love that suit.

[@adrianbedolla2458]

So do you drag knee or stick your foot out

[@bahenbihen]

Adrian Bedolla I guess you drag the knee on this one. If I understood everything right, this is more of a naked than a supermoto.

[@kawicyclez9903]

cheers mate! nice review. im also selling my body for an s.p.

[@cosmiccosmo8128]

Is 5'8 okay for this bike?

[@TheDonkanis]

im 6'2 and its not easy for me to get my foot down. ya might wanna get some platform shoes m8

[@donren5332]

husqarna nuda 900r. is so much better but hey i love them both really. no hate.

[@RocketJohn]

It may be, but the USA doesn't get it. So we have to settle for the Duck... :P

[@donren5332]

hehe you can import it..its expensive anyways you might aswell import it heheh :)

[@ernestopicazo189]

RenmanHD you cant buy a new nuda, the nuda has almost the same specs and about the same weight

[@VeeFour]

so you liked it then :)

[@BikeWorldTVshow]

+VeeFour Did that come across?

[@VeeFour]

Bike World Just a tad :D

[@sidblackblacky7235]

+Bike W orld

[@kwatkins2009]

if the sp came white like the base model I would have spent the extra cash.

[@WilliamStewart1]

Ken Watkins A wrap costs nothing really, you'd have to spend a ton more to get a regular 939 to the level of a SP.

[@TheUrbanEpicure]

[@DrEvilAce]

Have Ducati addressed the unreliability of it?

[@TheMacki95]

yees

[@balsara675]

the SP wont come to india

[@sbisxi]

+balsara 675 who cares?

[@jure1789]

+Bike World how tall are you ? I am 1,95 meter Is this bike to small for me?

[@ernestopicazo189]

Juka Jukanov nope, you will be good

[@jeroenengeler3139]

Anyone know the EDM track used in this video?

[@gokcendede5287]

You looks like '' Sinan Akçıl '' turkish singer wohaha

[@creal560]

Don’t tell the misses they’re that sexy

[@alexzandergarcia9]

is this street usable ????

[@ryankimura5355]

Love it!!! Want one badly but unfortunately, in my country it costs around USD$31,000! Even the base model costs around USD$26,000! Mind f**kin blown 😱😡 Anyone need a kidney? Let me know.

[@standean214]

KTM Kant take much

[@michaeljkasnter]

Please Ducati build a Superllegera version!! This bike is a pig

[@GEORGIADEALEX]

Did you people didn't find a real rider for the test...He pops wheelies like a beginner squid, he's insecure...Wtf people?!

[@higgoducati8774]

Hey Eddie Kidd....whats a squid?

[@drn4971]

2011 KTM 990 SMR is still better bike.

[@pryontosarker568]

DR N no stop

[@alexsp7086]

Ducati = woman bikes :)))

[@nilstancabag695]

you mean chick magnets?

[@yoyoyoonbitch]

Silent Walker haha😂 nice one

[@erniel7689]

Let me guess, you consider Harley a man's bike?

[@alexsp7086]

ha ha no way :)) thats a poser i am hard bike and lots of women drive harleys :)) but after watching the movie chips i kind of thought ok the Hyper is not so bad :)). Its just something about Italian bikes look feminin.
