My SP is a friggin magic carpet!!! This is hands down the absolute best and most addicting motorsickle I’ve ever owned. Been riding 55 years and THIS IS THE WAY..... Don’t think about just do it...

[@ReignitedAuto]

The original Hyper was a game changer. I like how refined it is now, but I feel like it does kind of miss it's original rough edges attraction. Nice honest video guys 👍

[@AMSDucatiDallas]

Thanks! 👍

@@AMSDucatiDallas watched them all, your hyper review is the best

Im from Malaysia. I very like too see you reviewing the new hypermotard from ducati. This is the best reviewing video and i watch it over and over again. Thanks

[@jeremytownshend8344]

Thanks Marty - I too am somewhat verticallly challenged and this was in the back of my mind when I threw my leg over over a Hypermotard 950 this morning, but your whole video discussion of this epic bike has served to reassure me. Thanks buddy 👌

[@bigpowerhouse11]

I appreciate the slower meticulous delivery of information for sure so many review usually throw a ton of information at you in 30 seconds followed by an, "Ok, lets go ride."

[@AMSDucatiDallas]

Glad it was helpful!

[@supermotorider2885]

The 1100... my bike, I keep it like a jewel and i use it almost every day. A motorcycle that definitely puts a smile on your face every time you use it

[@andressebastianmontalvosua8193]

Awesome video and great tips for those of us vertically challenged Marty :) Thanks for the info, if I lived in Dallas I would totally buy my next Ducati from you guys. Great idea with these reviews! keep it up mate!

[@AMSDucatiDallas]

Appreciate the comment. Cheers!

[@darrennunes1078]

I have a Ducati 1100 and O BOY I love this bike it’s like ever time I ride it I always leave amazed of the amount of torque it had its raw it has no rider aids what so ever u have to be a seasoned rider to ride it but OMG it feels good I can’t explain how good it is

A properly great introduction/review of the FANTASTIC Hypermotard range!!

Are these things reliable? I mean i don’t expect yamaha/kawi reliability but is it manageable?

There are new Ducati Multistrada V4 coming up and can’t wait to watch your “Model Breakdown” video on that bikes.

[@anthonyakers3393]

Ducati one of these days I’m gonna on one preferably for a new off the showroom floor. Truly is my dream bike.

[@smedlydewlap4942]

Thank you! That was an excellent, excellent description of the lineup.

[@TheHUNTERTIGER]

Thank u for this video it has to be the best and most comprehensive review and explanation if the model. The fact u also detailed ur 30” seam to demonstrate ease of getting on & seating position was extremely helpful (I’m vertically challenged too and unable to find a bike to try out within 2 hrs of where I live). ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

[@vwt6wanderlust307]

Love these videos, great bikes but Marty is box office, great knowledge and presentation… especially as a fellow vertically challenged guy! Keep up the great work! 👏🏻👏🏻

Thank you!

Love my new SP.. and went for the lowered seat!

[@theonlyredspecial]

just found this today, great video guys!

[@DutchWesp]

Good review! this is my 2nd hypermotard in 3 years now... it's epic to wheelie it and a lot of fun , I fully customized my 950 now to a 1 0f Ducati... they are rideable for any type of rider #DutchWesp 😎🤘🏼

[@adamf.8564]

One of my friend has an SP and my good GOD! This bike is a beast :)! Me personally love the KTM Superduke 1290RR, but this is up there with it as well :)! Beautiful BIKES.

Really nice and professional dealership, clear explanations. I wish i had people like you at my Ducati store ...

[@AMSDucatiDallas]

Thank you!

[@gcdjelms]

Great video. I agree with your summary and your accuracy. I'm 5'7 and have a Hyper SP as my second ride for getting to work. I have got the optional lower seat and ground reach isn't a problem. Hypermotards are awesome and I have a laugh every day on the way to work. Thanks for another great video Marty!!

[@AMSDucatiDallas]

Thanks!

[@dannulik]

Did the lower seat help a lot? I am looking into the normal or RVE 950 (or 821) and I am afraid about the seat height. I am 5'9"-5'10". All the 950 were sold out around me so I didn't have a chance to try them.

[@gcdjelms]

@@dannulik G'Day Daniel, The lower seat height helped heaps. I sat on a Hyper with a normal seat height and as much as I wanted the bike, it was too tall. A that point, I would not have bought the bike. I sat on the same bike with the lower seat fitted and it made a world of difference and I bought the bike. So glad I did.... Hope this helps... Regards Graeme.

[@jafferarfatkhan6013]

Hello Marty , Thanks for all these videos. A quick question I will be thankful for the answer. What does wheelie control levels mean. What will happen if I keep wheelie control at level 4 example, I think bike will do wheelie and will go up till certain inclination and not above that even if give more throttle?

[@PeterEnis69]

The lowered seat was a must have for me, lol

[@ShaneyPo0]

Good video.

[@AMSDucatiDallas]

Thanks!

[@horusyt4828]

I like everything in this bike except the exhaust position...is there any option to change exhaust postion like mini exhaust

[@tbone_2k217]

i had test ride the 950 sp and it didn't disappoint but it was so tall i couldn't even get the kick stand out lol im a bit worried if the lowered seat will help. Taking off was always on my tip toes

[@WillfulThinker]

So, with the base model and low seat option, what is the seat height? Thanks.

[@ericems2]

Eagerly awaiting the 2024’s 🙏

[@arjunprakash1602]

Can you please make a video of what kind of bike suite a individual 👍🏻

[@rbjoseph25]

I'm 39. Raced hare scramble between 8-16. I haven't riden since then due to a wreck in my front yard that retired me from bikes... not my choice. Life took over, cars... kids... house... I've been wanting a street bike, but hate the weight of cruisers, and seating positions of sport bikes. At 5'5 125lbs, it's hard to find anything. I raced an old xr250r, so I was use to high seats. I feel like this bike would feel familiar to me. I just miss riding. I was very good back then. But I have no clue if I still know how.

[@acvn-hg9gy]

if there is gonna be a hypermotard v4, im buying it.

[@2_Bike_is_Life]

I just ordered a 2021 V4 SP, but wish I could pick up the RVE as a second bike.

[@kirkdunn1379]

really nice bikes.......would grab an SP model but actually like the livery of base model.....like the all red and even the side plates on the pipe if possible.....would be a second bike.....this or the husky 701......new to street bikes but raced MX, GP, dez......so these feel right at home

[@jienelp]

Can 5'4 ride this bike? Or there's a way we can lower the suspension or even the telescopic?

[@Vencisk]

Waiting for the Multistrada leneup too :)

[@AMSDucatiDallas]

We will bring that to you shortly once we have the new V4 demo in the shop to test and give you a comparison on. 👍

[@bharris0128]

I live in Germany but I'm from 'Merca. I have a choice between a 2020 SP (new) which I can buy now, or wait until June/July for Ducati to deliver the 2021 (delayed due to Euro5). I am having a hard time to make my choice. Suggestions?

[@AMSDucatiDallas]

The SP is a wild ride.

[@princejaiswal6487]

Is 5 feet 6 inch can manage streetfighter v4s with low power mode if is beginner ?🔥

[@CallUrDrop]

Thanks for tip on getting on a bike it you're shorter. Lol never knew. I have a ktm 690 supermoto. But maybe have one of these someday.

[@VikingsFan27]

Hey Marty, I am thinking about buying a used hypermotard. I'm looking at a 2008 1100s. It has 27000 miles. I know that these are air cooled vs. The newer liquid cooled. Is there a year that you would stay away from? Howmany miles is a bike like this good for? I guess overall would you recommend a 2008 bike for a newer rider? Not wanting to make a financial commitment of 18k just yet before I really know how I like it. Any input would be great. Thanks.

[@AMSDucatiDallas]

Best to give us a call as there is a lot here to unpack... [phone]

[@Nomak-Armstrong-6ft-9]

Hello brother “ is Hypermotard 950 comfortable to ride with pillion is seat is soft ?

[@mathias6423]

No way the RVE is limited to only 100 units, they must have extended that quite a bit. There are shops here in Sweden having them in stock every year. And it is not just bikes from 2020, 2022 but this year they also have brand new 2023 RVE bikes for sale.

[@madmike5144]

RVE seat and wheel in SP edition, would be cool

[@anthonymilsteen5113]

Not to sure if it’s to late for you to read this. Could you possibly do a monster vs diavel

[@Canuck_213]

In your opinion is the SP worth the extra money if not tracking it? Thx for the great reviews. 🤙🏼💯

[@AMSDucatiDallas]

VERY subjective answer ... yes. If you like the looks, handling, upgraded components then the SP is totally worth it.

[@ADDONRACER]

Good first beginners bike? It looks so cool. I drove (rent) before the mt09, which has a lot of torque and I really like how it feels, better than the mt07 for me. Drove also few other bikes. So it will be the mt 09 or the hypermotard..

[@AMSDucatiDallas]

Seat height may be high for a beginner especially if you are not the tallest person.

[@TheHeckelmiester]

One 950 RVE has arrived in Australia (the other 14 of 15 total should arrive in January) and the lucky 1st owner says that there is no numbered inspection plate. That sucks! I've asked my dealer to ask Ducati Australia to supply them. Hopefully Ducati will do the right thing and supply them.

[@newtrap5366]

They are coming I got my badge a few weeks ago had the RVE since October I’m number 60 from New York City!

[@TheHeckelmiester]

@@newtrap5366 That's good to know. There is hope yet that we will get badges then. The dealer called me today to say my RVE is only a few days away. Yee haa!

Probably if its ur first real street bike

[@Corpse1984]

Can you compare the original 1100 to this new one?

[@ovu5293]

Yes

[@Davidkxf]

Can you get a sump guard for it?

[@apantelop]

Nice summary! Can you compare the suspension feeling and behavior between the SP and the other two in terms of harshness, stability, weight transfer, ability to soak up bumps etc? Thanks!

[@Pflap64]

I think I want this Bike

[@rakeshrocky4818]
