2022 Ducati Supersport 950s Review - A fast but friendly sportsbike for the road

[@PutTheCookieDown]

This bike just looks absolutely gorgeous, looks like a super sport one can actually live with.

[@mysticmusafir3344]

I'm 6' and 200lbs... still carry some holiday weight from 2009 and I love this bike, finally a sport bike that doesn't require a chiropractor visit after half hour of riding. Also, i like the over all power because on high end power bike, I'm constantly testing my self control. So go for it people... just toss those antlers out, and get a cool gel seat cover

[@jamesdonoghue5907]

Great review, thanks. I used ti have the 939 version - loved it. Then had Multistradas, and an S1000RR. Been without a bike for almost a year…I’m picking up a 950S on Tuesday. It’s the bike I missed the most by far. Can’t wait.

[@mancavemoto]

Enjoy the new bike!

[@danieloconnell4225]

I don't see this as a sports tourer - the fact that you can still get paniers for it may suggest it, but Ducati doesn't use the term anywhere for it - they seem to be marketing it as a 'street' alternative to the Panigale series, so basically it's more of an oldschool sports bike. Most sports tourers are larger, heavier, with even higher bars and lower seats.

[@kerrinnaude2777]

Yep. Ability to get out of second gear.

[@yahoodlums]

A Ducati you can actually live with and use everyday! Most of the Panigales are so cramped and hot, it's for enthusiasts only.

[@rlsedition]

Enthusiasts who do track days only. Despite seeing Panigales being used on the streets, they are really overkill for actual road riding.

[@alfarojulio-araujo8374]

I have a Panigale v4 in my garage/living room. It’s a beauty to look at!

[@rlsedition]

@@alfarojulio-araujo8374 Yes, beautiful, but uncomfortable to ride - except at race tracks.

[@christopherhorton5449]

My dealer leant me one whist my Multistrada 950 was in for a service. What a bike! I had a 916 years ago and this handles as well and sounded fantastic on the standard pipes. I love the crackle on over run too. The comfort surprised me. I am very tempted

[@mancavemoto]

Its a lovely thing

[@whyalwaysme2522]

Go for it.

[@racer21vt]

I Absolutely love my my 21 950 S. Only two very minor complaints....the mirriors vibrate terribly on not so smooth roads and if you get stuck in stop and go traffic on a hot summer day your legs get pretty toasty. But very user friendly sports bike and ergonomics are good for a middle aged overweight guy like me that is still 16 at heart!

[@bencourriel]

I rent this bike in Italy and I agree with you, the two minor complaints for me is the mirrors vibration and the heat for you legs when you get stuck in traffic on a hot summer day. Beside that, it is perfect!

[@JensAddictions]

Nice review, Tony, I've never really been into sports bikes but I have to be honest, this one gives me a semi!

[@mancavemoto]

Same here, I’ve always liked the looks but they’ve never been the sort of bike I’d own. This has changed my mind a bit

[@andyturner9836]

The only sports bike I'd seriously consider. Real world usable power, comfort and looks to die for. Great review Tony, only problem is there's no way I can afford one short of a lotto win...... one day perhaps?

[@mancavemoto]

Same here Andy, maybe a few of us can club together and do a bike share? 😂

[@rlsedition]

Buy used. They didn't change from 2017-2020.

[@mrsilbo6499]

If it looks fantastic & rides fantastic, then it probably is.... fantastic! I'm in the same old & large boys' club as you, Tony, so it's good to know this is a viable ride. My last Duke was a 907ie & that was a belter - and loud (Termis) too!

[@mancavemoto]

Spot on. Yep the comfort geniunely impressed me, its no Goldwing comfort, but i could live with it for sure

[@rlsedition]

Hey, I once owned a 907 i.e. as well! My SuperSport was purchased after an MV Agusta F3, which was fun but uncomfortable to ride unless on curvy, smooth roads.

[@SonicAttack2k]

Great description of the bike. Im a newer rider and upgraded to the 2017 S model this year after a year riding the 650 ninja. It has that perfect balance of sports and touring elements. As a newer rider the engine is smooth and punchy down low, compared to the 650 ninja I did find I had to change gear a lot more at lower speeds but the quick shift is a dream for that and the over run from the exhaust just brings a smile with its little pops and bangs. Riding position is not as upright as the ninja but isn't back breaking as a race ready bike and when i brought mine i also had a 2 hour ride back from picking it up all be on motorway, but had no pain being in that position for the amount of time. The seat gets a bit hot around town and in warm conditions but its a ducati thing. Over all, i think its a great upgrade and hope for many fun filled miles on it.

[@mancavemoto]

Thank you fgor watching and enjoy your Ducati!

[@colin55594]

Just got mine, it's a first road bike for me. Riding yz250 prior. Wish it had more power. But love the bike otherwise.

One of the best reviews on this model

[@mancavemoto]

Thanks

[@RAZRMOTOV2]

What an eye opening review, Sir...I'm about to get the bike of my dreams soon, since my last bike, over 30yrs ago, was a 1986 FZ600 Yamaha that was destroyed by an inattentive motorist and now, here I am at 55yrs old, it appears that THIS motorbike will more than suffice...Especially when you pointed out the discomfiting issues with more "powerful" bikes that invariably come with a "cost" to an older mans ergonomical concerns...I don't need any NEW aches and pains just to look kool. That's a young man's game. Now I can look kool and be comfortable as well. Thanks again for the AWESOME review and Cheers and much success to your channel.

[@mancavemoto]

Thanks, its a bike that surprised me with its overall usability. Glad the review was of use

[@brianperry]

Forty years ago I owned a Bevel Drive 900SS I was thirty five and still had a supple body, now alas my days of this style of Bike is over.. am I jealous...bet your life I am. Just listening to you extolling lyrical has me green with envy..

[@mancavemoto]

I'm heading that way too Brian ;)

[@brianperry]

@@mancavemoto In the earlier nineties I stopped off at a local dealer to have a closer look at a 916. A salesman saw me looking, thought he may have a sale. He invited me 'to throw a leg' over...thats when I knew my time has a cafe racer, 1960 Rocker was over, time had taking its toll. I now own a Triumph Street Triple 675..probably at the end of my motorcycling journey. Fifty nine years ....so far!.. Its all been great.

[@grahamtricker4103]

Really enjoyed this review. Love the bike. I saw one at the Ducati museum 2 weeks ago when I was on a factory tour and museum visit. They had one in the museum entrance area that you could throw a leg over. A really lovely bike.

[@grahamtricker4103]

@@mancavemoto Just following up to say that I just bought one of these, one of the last new ones left in the showrooms as sadly this bike has been discontinued by Ducati. What a huge shame as your review is very accurate and its one of the best motorcycles I have ridden in 30 years. ATB 👍 P.S. I really enjoyed your videos when you when out to various places of interest, especially the old WWII airfields. My father was evacuated to Thetford from Felixstowe during WWII and he told me some amazing stories about what it was like living around a number of airbases and the planes he saw.

[@Ramon51650]

It a couple of years later, but I really like the on-the-road review of the bike. I have a Hypermotard 950 SP, but naked bikes at sustained high speed are challenge that gets old quickly. Two hours ago I was at my local Ducati deanship sitting on one to get a sense of the riser and seat that seems to be the talk of most reviewers. Frankly, they aren't so high that I felt like a begging puppy. The wheels seem to be cast and not forged, so that is a ding against it, but I just happen to have an unused set of Marchisini wheels, so I would switch them out. thanks for the review.

[@maxwellnevermann184]

I have been watching vids on this bike for 2 years this is the last before I order one tomorrow morning from Melbourne VIC Australia and ride back to Perth WA can't wait but it will be wet. It will be a good bike after riding the Ducati ST3s for 10 + years. Good review Tony

[@mancavemoto]

Thanks Maxwell, much appreciated

[@mt_matt792]

Great vid, thank you. Putting a deposit on one of these next week! Thought i wanted the Panigale but can't take the wrist pain anymore. This will be like a more refined vfr/interceptor i think,

[@Graeme4561]

Another great review thanks, I was tossing up between the 950s and the 1000sx and went with the 1000sx after riding them back to back. Although I am now thinking of getting a Cafe Racer as well for the soulful ride they provide, Maybe I would not be thinking this way if I had got the 950s

[@mancavemoto]

Thanks Graeme, they are fairly similar in spec. I think you'd buy one with your head and the other with your heart?

[@twowheelsoneleg5672]

I like the 950s, they appear much more usable that the full on sports models

[@IanTheEarlobe]

Especially for most weekend riders or tourers that don’t have track or racing experience. Most people would kill themselves with 150hp and it makes no sense to be in 1st until 90kph on the street. Big numbers are just a pointless dick measuring contest for the most part. My scrambler 1200 has 90hp and it feels like more than enough.

[@mancavemoto]

I would tend to agree, around the 100hp mark seems to be the sweet spot for the road

[@aeroncaflyer8474]

Nice review. I’m very tempted to trade in my zzr for one of these before I get into trouble! I think we must live near each other. I used to park my vehicle exactly where you started this review!

[@alistairkip7303]

This is exactly the type of bike I am interested in... Looking forward the seeing more like this. The Suzuki GSX-S100GT sounds good too!

[@mancavemoto]

The Suzuki review will be coming up soon

[@AjarnSpencer]

I have a streetfighter 848 and just that is smooth as silk, so the supersport, is one of the next three on my list as it must be even smoother. But my MV 1090 Brutale is also a miraculous thing, but not as super comfortable as the streetfighter. The supersport is similar with a fairing but the riding experience is similar enough, to say that both the streetfighter and the supersport are among the most surprising bikes one could ride, and highly recomendable daily rides.

[@jimbob67]

Beautiful looking bike. I must plonk my backside on some new Ducati's. Cheers for the real world reviews. Big bhp is pointless in the uk now. ✌️👍

[@mancavemoto]

No problem and yep i agree on big BHP

[@brianperry]

I've heard a few real world reviewer say 200 HP is pointless on public roads...better to let the engine spins up. I owned an earlier incarnation of a race orientated Ducati, a bevel drive 900 SS. There was the temptation to let the torque of the engine do the work low down...this was a mistake as it had a reputation of 'doing the main bearing in' Your right, all race type/style Ducatis are stunningly beautiful

Yep, the VFR is another lovely machine. My friend has a vfr750, ‘89 I think? That he’s had from new. Still a lovely silky ride

[@sleeper.simulant7327]

Biggest “downside” of the VFR is it’s hefty curb weight compared to this. Downside is really only for those looking at doing some track riding in the weekends, the extra heft will make it worse. For a daily, not that big a deal in all reality.

I know I sound like an even older sod than I am... but I really wish Ducati had added the option of hard lugage and a cruise control to this bike (and a slightly bigger tank). Don't get me wrong, I'd LOVE to own one, but doing a fair bit of touring and not having the budget for two bikes sadly makes it less of an option than it could have been. Honestly, a modern ST3 is really the kind of bike I'd want... and noone seems to be making these days.

[@martinbrinkmann5386]

Thank you for the great review. I’m a 50 year old who wants to get a motorcycle and need your opinion. I went to a Ducati dealer and absolutely fell in love with the Supersport 950S, but the Monster is also very appealing to me, not only because it’s cheaper. Most of my riding would take place in the city. Which one would you suggest for a beginner? Or would you suggest these at all?

[@rosco950ss7]

Im also 50 and ride my 950s through traffic often and find it a breeze. I"m also able to stay in saddle for long periods on the odd all-day ride as well. As a returning rider after an extended period away from motorcycling I didnt think I wanted to go back to sport bikes but the 950 is relaxed if you want it to be, yet flippen quick if your feeling 18 again :)

With the longer wheelbase, how does it handle in sharper turns you encounter on the street? Bikes I've ridden have less than 1400mm wheelbase and this one looks like its 1478. Anyone share their thoughts? I'm an average rider not pushing the envelope on the street just FYI.

[@mancavemoto]

Thanks Mark, and theres not that many to be fair, the Kawasaki 1000 SX is one for sure, and the new Suzuki GSXS1000GT is in the mix, but then the market seems to be either more expensive, or going down the more upright Adventure Tourer shape.

I can't get my 2022 Super Sport out of urban ride mode no matter how hard I try even using the owner's manual.

It's a looker, but where I feel Ducati falls down is with ownership (at least here in Oz). Servicing costs are litterally three times more than my BMW over the warranty period and supply of parts and even stock is insanely slow.

[@kforeal6809]

Looks like a great bike! Currently have a RS660, but I've been thinking about a slight upgrade eventually. Would you say this would be a good step -up or should I just go for the V2? I do mostly spirited rides on back road twisties and canyons with the occasional highway to and from places.

[@mancavemoto]

I think it’s a good bike to move too for sure, it has a more relaxed riding position than the pano game v2

[@kforeal6809]

@@mancavemoto that's kinda what I'm thinking. One of the things I like most about the 660 is the sporty, yet comfortable riding position. I'm just concerned the power difference between the 660 and Supersport isn't big enough to justify the switch, that's why I'm also thinking the Panigale.

I tried very hard by pushing it, it did try to stop the bike but not completely, is this something common ? Am worried its a brand new, not even a month rear brake not working

Rear brakes are not designed to stop the bike n a hurry, they are used for scrubbing off speed and balancing the braking. This is pretty common with all bikes

Great bike, rode a 2020 S, but chose the Multi 950s for its better touring capabilities. IMO, this bike would be more suited with the V2 power plant - for that aging demographic that is moving away from super sports.

Hi, the handlebars are relatively high, but how upright is the riding position itself? Thanks.

[@mancavemoto]

Relatively, but you are still 'canted' forward in a semi aggressive position.

Am I being unkind if I say it’s a previous Monster model with a fairing? Doesn’t make it a bad thing. 🤷🏻‍♂️

[@rlsedition]

I owned a Monster 1200 and can tell you the fairing makes all the difference; the SuperSport is a better ROAD bike.

[@williamdavis4809]

Very nice

[@mancavemoto]

yep

[@jeffanderson8384]

Lovely bike. What's not to like?

[@mancavemoto]

Right?

[@FELiPES101]

does ducati make a bike that is more for beginners or is everything more of a second bike

[@mancavemoto]

This is very easy to ride, the monster is a great easy riding bike too and of course there are the Scramblers

[@МихаилГригорьевич-л3м]

Nice and beautiful! Had you ever tried the 1099-1199 (most beautiful, as for me; even better than 916-996-998)?

[@mancavemoto]

Cheers, I haven’t no

When you're young you ride 'em. When you're older you have them in the living room, you crack a can open, find a comfy seat and just look at this thing of Beauty

[@nairbyad7188]

[@mancavemoto]

Thanks, and boring? i beg to differ....

[@nairbyad7188]
