Challenge accepted. For the 2022 range, available from June 2021, Ducati has updated the Hypermotard 950 family to Euro 5 regulation standards* and introduces the new livery for the SP version. The update guarantees the same values in terms of torque and output.
A new colour scheme that evokes the racing world with its colours and that of freestyle sports with its graphics, highlighting the youthful character of the bike.
The ideal choice for those looking to indulge in the pure pleasure of an adrenaline rush while riding their bike, having maximum fun without compromising on safety. The three models - Hypermotard 950, Hypermotard 950 RVE and Hypermotard 950 SP - are perfect for taking cornering to extremes whilst also dealing with city traffic with the utmost agility.

The new SP livery evokes the MotoGP world in its choice of colours and that of “freestyle sports” in its graphics, highlighting the fun-bike character of the bike.
The design of the Hypermotard 950 is inspired by the look of the motard bikes and evolves around the double exhaust under the seat and the reduced superstructures that allow you to get a glimpse of the mechanics, including the rear trellis subframe that conveys an ultra-light and sleek mood to this version.
The ergonomics of this motard-inspired bike, ensures the rider maintains an erect riding position with wide elbows, which translates into maximum levels of reaction and control whatever the conditions.
The seat of the RVE and SP versions is flat, in professional motard style, to facilitate shifting forward and backward on the seat while riding.
The engine of the Hypermotard 950 family is the Ducati twin-cylinder 937 cm³ Testastretta 11° model, with an output of 114 hp at 9,000 rpm and a flat torque curve peaking at 9.8 kgm at 7,250 rpm. These output and torque values remain unchanged with the transition to Euro 5* type approval.
*where Euro 5 is applied
The Hypermotard 950 family is equipped with a revised version of the 937 cu cm twin-cylinder Ducati Testastretta 11° compliant with Euro 5 emissions standard regulations (in countries countries where Euro 5 standard applies).
Read moreThe engine of the Hypermotard 950 family is the Ducati twin-cylinder 937 cm³ Testastretta 11° model, with an output of 114 hp at 9,000 rpm and a flat torque curve peaking at 9.8 kgm at 7,250 rpm. These output and torque values remain unchanged with the transition to Euro 5 type approval (*Only for countries where Euro 5 standard applies).
The Hypermotard 950 family is equipped with a revised version of the 937 cu cm twin-cylinder Ducati Testastretta 11°.
The Testastretta 11° engine has pistons with a compression ratio increased to 13.3:1 (compared to 12.6:1 of the predecessor), an exhaust cam profile and an exhaust system with the silencers located under the seat.
Read moreThe Testastretta 11° engine features a throttle body with 53 mm bore, and is controlled by a Ride-by-Wire throttle control system. The twin-cylinder engine also sports lighter clutch and generator covers, a lighter selector drum, aluminium rather than steel belt tensioners and magnesium head covers.
The engine is equipped with a wet clutch with self-servo action and anti-hop function. Its hydraulic control system with adjustable lever help reduce lever effort.
Read moreThe gearbox sports the Ducati Quick Shift EVO system (DQS EVO) with up/down function. Fine tuned for the Hypermotard 950 and available as an option (standard equipment on the RVE and SP version), it uses the lean angle information to maximise the motorcycle stability during shift changes in corners. Besides minimising shift times, the DQS EVO allows downshifts without using the clutch thereby ensuring even more effective braking into corners. The system acts in a different way for upshifts and downshifts, supplementing the advance firing and injection action during upshifts with the controlled opening of the throttle for downshifts, thanks to the full Ride-by-Wire system.
The gearbox has been revised to make it easier to engage neutral when the bike is stationary and to ensure maximum precision in gear selection.
Read moreThe Hypermotard 950 family features a steel trellis frame with variable-section tubes that weighs one kilo less than the previous model.
Read more25° steering head angle, 104 mm trail and 30 mm offset allow for stable and safe control without compromising the agility typical of this motorcycle. The frame is connected to the rear subframe, also a steel trellis frame, derived from that of the first Hypermotard. A wide steering angle of 70° allows great handling, while the 1,493 mm (1,498 mm for the SP version) wheelbase allows maximising stability at high speeds. The fuel tank, with 14.5 litre fuel capacity, lends the Hypermotard 950 excellent overall range without spoiling its essential, curvy lines. The Hypermotard 950 sports a single-sided aluminium swinging arm.
The Hypermotard 950 is equipped with a Marzocchi fork with fully adjustable 45 mm aluminium tubes and stanchions, and 170 mm wheel travel that shaved off 500 grams compared to the unit installed on the previous version.
Read moreThe front braking system features two monobloc radially-mounted 4-piston Brembo M4.32 callipers operated by a radial brake master cylinder with adjustable 5-position lever.
Read moreOn the front end the discs measure 320 mm and feature aluminium flanges (for a total weight reduction of 600 grams), while at the back there is a single 245 mm diameter disc gripped by a single Brembo calliper. These components ensure a braking performance that sets the standard for the industry, a characteristic that has always been common to all Ducati bikes.
The Hypermotard 950 is equipped with 3-spoke Y-shaped aluminium rims with 3.5\" section up front and 5.5\" section at the rear, and is fitted with Pirelli Diablo Rosso III tyres, namely 120/70 ZR17 up front and 180/55/55 ZR17 at the rear.
Read moreThese new wheels enabled a weight saving of 800 grams compared to those fitted on the previous model. The Hypermotard 950 SP, on the other hand, is fitted with lightweight Marchesini forged rims with 3 Y-spokes, 3.5\" section up front and 5.5\" at the rear, and the latest evolution of the Pirelli Diablo Supercorsa SP racing tyres, namely 120/70 ZR7 up front and 180/55 ZR177 at the rear.
To ensure high braking performance, combined with excellent safety, the Hypermotard 950 has been equipped with ABS Bosch Cornering system with three-level adjustment.
Read moreLevel 3 is suitable for everyday use on the road or for poor grip conditions. It guarantees safe and stable braking under all conditions, as rear wheel lift is kept under control under harsh braking.
Level 2 always manages both the front and rear braking systems but allows for more aggressive braking with softer lift-up control. This level provides greater safety under braking, even in wet conditions.
Level 1 introduces a racing-like intervention logic of the cornering system up front, and activates the Slide by Brake function at the rear that allows for sliding into corners using the rear brake safely for better performance i n sports riding. In level 1, the rear lift-up control is disabled.
The DTC EVO on the Hypermotard 950 is based on an algorithm that makes its interventions more precise and quick.
Read moreThe Hypermotard 950 comes with the latest version of the Ducati Wheelie Control EVO (DWC EVO). This system uses the information provided by Bosch IMU 6D to prevent wheelies and enables the rider to achieve maximum performance under acceleration with ease and safely.
Read moreThe Hypermotard 950 comes with provisions for the Ducati Multimedia System (DMS), which enables user to answer phone calls, select and play music tracks, and receive text notifications via Bluetooth technology.
Read moreAs the rider gets on the motorcycle, the smartphone connects automatically to the motorcycle via the Bluetooth module (available as an accessory on all range models), enabling the rider to control the main multimedia functions. The TFT display shows the track being played, an icon notifying of new incoming text messages or caller name. Call and music audio is transmitted to the earpads of the rider\'s helmet. The DMS is available as an accessory for all models of the Hypermotard 950 range
