I think you are right about the Hyperstrada but here is another interesting point of view every american should consider: if you do 110 miles with a full tank, that means that you can pretty much do Italy coast to coast with 1 full tank and top to bottom with 6. I think sometimes you forget how huge (and beautiful) your country is.

[@pmdinaz]

I've seen many movies, shows, videos of Italy, and it looks stunning. That's a helluva compliment, Nik! A sentiment I do share! I love our (my) beautiful, messed up at times, country! I fought for it..I'm keepin it :) 50 years on the planet, and I've got a few more states to cover.

Not sure if anyone has mentioned it: you want to tuck your ground sheet under your tent. If the footprint of the tarp is larger than the tent and it rains then you're stuck in a puddle. If you tuck the tarp in under your tent then you won't run into that problem. Great video my guy! Looking forward to doing some Moto camping from my CBR650R. Keep up the great work.

It was amazing to finally get a chance to meet you! Thanks again for coming and sharing a wonderful weekend with the Brap Star crew at Forgotten Angels. ❤

[@Andrew_LaRice]

Having owned a Hyperstrada, the first three minutes gave me flashbacks. One big thing to keep an eye on with these bikes: The throttle-by-wire can short out in heavy rain. If this occurs once, it'll continue to randomly pop up without any real rhyme or reason. When the short happens, your bike will die, even if you're doing 85 in busy traffic on the freeway at night. Sometimes you can restart it while riding, sometimes you can't. Don't listen to the dealership that wants to disassemble your bike and check every connector at $150/hr shop rate. Instead, check the Ducati recall info for the part number of the replacement throttle assembly and swap it out yourself. And keep a plastic bag handy to cover the right side of the handlebars if you need to park it in the rain. I recommend a taller windscreen, as well as strapping a two small gas canisters somewhere just as backup to get you to the next station if need be. These bikes are insanely fun, and undeniably gorgeous. But dealerships will treat you like a walking piggy bank, and the service intervals are unpleasantly short.

[@stuartkraven]

Spite, you should try riding in the UK, it's cold most of the time. The longest I've done in a day is 250 miles, and my arse was numb. It's was on a vfr800 and was getting 160 miles a tank. You should go back to one of those. Great video, as always.

[@TheBlueDogMan]

I have to go to Louisiana frequently with my job. I recognized a couple of stretches of that highway. I admire your guts and grit sir. I’ve taken a trip when the rain caught me and a four hour trip turned into a nine hour trip. When I get to the hotel I was exhausted but it never felt better to be warm at any time during my life.😅

[@QuasiMotoUSA]

I was feeling for you stopping every 100 miles remembering those days! I've had two 1100s' and both times put a 6.4 gal tank on it (you can't even see the tank) because of the limited range. I love the new hypers but am not willing to give up the flexibility to do longer rides in more desolate places. I'm with you, they are great all around machines, comfortable, quick, and scalpels around town.

[@saltedcashews269]

[@OldDirtGuy]

Ah the dread Ducati 100 mile gas gauge. I have a 2004 Multistrada and a 2012 Hypermotard. Both will tell you that they are empty at about 100 miles. The Multistrada will reliably go 150 and the Hyper will do at least 130. You just have to learn what the bike will do and use the fuel warning as a hint to get gas in about thirty miles.

[@nickspainhower4943]

Used to live in mobile and then Tampa after that and have done the drive between the 2 many times so it’s cool to see you making the same trek

[@pocketlint82]

I loved this video, Spite! Please do more trips if you can. Maybe shorter ones to save your sanity

[@TwoGreatWheels]

I just did UK to Greece, which is about 2k odd miles. Take the back roads is my advice to anyone doing similar distances, take plenty of breaks, and do it slowly. It took me 3.5 days. Could've gone faster if not for the speed limit in France. Should've gone a lot slower.

[@tonytesoriero1242]

You did it but right tool for the job if you went on a Goldwing you could have put the windshield up turned on the heated grips and seat and cruised 200 miles or more before stopping for gas

[@deancardon8138]

I love it, I have the original Hyper 2008 done some 3000 mile tours on it. Worse seat in the world but if find twisty roads well worth the pain.Yep Duc tanks suck. Always carry extra fuel.

[@rickguyproductions5146]

I have the same exact bike. I took off the screen and replaced it with a CF shorty and it is much better. The only time I'd use the touring screen is like you when the temp drops. I've taken the Hyper on shorter trips, 200-300 miles, but I must confess, as much as I love it, if I were traveling that distance, I'd be on my Multistrada. Besides longer range, a bit better comfort, and wind protection, the extra power on the highway makes it, IMHO, better for long distances. That said, great video. If you ever get back to MS, I know some good roads to ride.

[@kurtinfl]

If I recall, we each left the campout in the same time frame. That rain hit me in Ocala and it continued all the way back to Jacksonville which probably matches up with your ride to Lake City. I bet you'd have liked the 5 gallon capacity that my Multistrada has.

I did 6655 km on this last year from Kl to Chiangmai through the famous 1000 corner Mae Hong Son then Pattaya and back to Kl. Very good bike esp handling and fuel consumption. Just the fuel tank is small 16 L where there was 1 part the nearest city was 320 km and had to look for fuel in the middle of nowhere in the mountains. Luckily the was a kiosk selling fuel of course at a higher price, just to get me to refuel at the next town. Great bike , nimble but a bit small though.

The great difficulty you have with weather might be mitigated by buying a 1-piece Aerostich suit. Cool in summer, warm in winter, and very rain resistant indeed.

[@andrewpeterson1551]

That's rough, my bike only makes it around 120 miles on a tank. I only have a 2 gallon tank and the fuel gauge reads empty when I still have a gallon left. Granted that I have a dual sport with a hard narrow seat that makes you want to stop after a 100 miles anyway, I feel your pain Spite.

[@mariometaxas8923]

Good video mate thanks for the experience. However, I was under the impression that a KLR would be better for touring than a Hyperstrada with more range and more comfortable seat?

[@Love4boost]

It’s weird that when you start getting out west the fuel grades are flipped. That would mess me up and I’d probably put 87 in my tank by accident. I live in NJ and ride during the winter. I don’t like leather for cold. It’s normal to see 39° with 90% humidity and 19mph wind gusts. That isn’t enjoyable with a leather anything for me. A full textile jacket with a zip in full thermal jacket, then wool thermals as a base layer is best option for that. But I can do 39° with 40% humidity and 10mph winds with a mesh jacket, wool thermal, and a hoodie. It’s not often I actually break out the textile jacket and REV’IT Stratos 2 GTX gloves. Only if I plan to be out for a while or I don’t trust the weather prediction for when I’m leaving work since I get out at night and the elevation there is higher than my house so I have seen as much as a 15° difference and it’s only a 17 mile trip

[@k_alexander7968]

You and I had similar crazy ideas this spring it seems 😂 I put 1000 miles on my new sv650 in the span of 2 days. Literally rode all the way across NC back hone to the Blue Ridge parkway and spent a day in the twisties then went down to SC and left the next morning back to the coast of NC. Only luggage I brought was a backpack…needless to say it was a grueling way to christen me and the new bike…I have a tail bag and windscreen now😂

If you had that Versys 650, you'd be comfortable and that thing is still agile for its height, big tank. Wide bars. Tons of aftermarket parts. Adjustable suspension. Get a cruise control clip or after market addon and you're golden!! Join the dark side and be comfortable.

He might have been more comfortable, but he might not have made it on time depending on what his average speed was. Then again, he could have pushed closer to 200 miles a tank for near half the stops 🤷🏼. I'd like to know as well though if he thinks the klr would have been the better option.

[@jacobhornberger8073]

@@spitescorner appreciate that!

[@Twowheelshredder]

Wouldn't be a Brapstar adventure if it did start with a gas stop. Have you packed some extra fuel and rode the Ducati till it runs out to see how far you can actually go? The Forgotten Angels Campouts always look amazing. Once you hit freezing temps, anything close and especially below 0C (32F) gets bad. A lot of people that ride don't understand that when they buy gear. If you can't block the windchill of traveling at hiway speeds with hand guards/mitts, windshield, big tank, etc, it doesn't matter. The windchill effect on top of the freezing temps hits like a frozen freight train.

I am surprised it was that much of a struggle. I thought your bike much more comfortable. Though when I did my Super Duke tour in Europe I had about 200mile tank ranges.
