More Fun Than Anything Else...
By (I am an Owner) on Sep 17, 2008You gotta' love the Ducati Hypermotard. All you have to do is ride one and you will instantly understand. There simply is not a motorcycle made that is more pure, unadulterated FUN than the Hyper. It's like a big, ol' Labrador Retriever... Always ready to run and romp and play, yet incredibly ... efficient at what one would call its "job"... Labs love to retrieve things, and no other dog does it better. Hypermotard's love to carve up any and every road or corner in site - smooth, rough, fast, slow, slick, or sticky - the Hyper grabs 'em and brings 'em right to you and seems downright happy doing it.
It's like a big dirt bike... An MX'er on steroids, and on pavement. Torquey, light steering yet super stable, great suspension, and it the harder you ride it the better it gets.
Simply fantastic...

Hyper MotoWOW !
By (I am an Owner) on Sep 15, 2008After nearly 600 miles on the Hypermotard 1100S I can clearly state that I haver never experienced anything even close to riding this bike . I can't stay off of it . When I'm not riding it I can't stop looking at it . It has it all , Looks, yeah , and looks from everybody that sees it go bye. And ... I mean goodbye because with all that power one quickly sees the back end .
Response ,turning and balance are totally off the wall . This one really sets the bar! Great job Ducati! This bike will do anything you want it to. With all the S upgrades you dont need anything else ,although I did buy a optional Gel seat which made the seat more comfortable and lowers your seating position around 1.5 inches lower . Perfecto! Viva Italia.
Very Happy , John Eberle
