Motorcycle journalist Roland Brown tests Ducati's supermoto based V-twin sports-tourer on its internatiional press launch on the spectacular roads of Tuscany in Italy
I tried the Hyperstrada late in the fall and what a peach. Especially the new engine impressed me. Willing to rev, yet with good torque. And very sensible power for the road. Nimble, yet stable steering. Very good grin factor in the twisties. I've had a few bikes in this segment and it really seems Ducati's hit the nail with this one as far as overall package is concerned.
Standard seat height is 850mm in most markets and there's an optional/accessory seat available that is 830mm. But maybe the lower one comes as standard in some markets?
