Hey everyone,
First of all thank you for tuning in!
In this video you can see my first thoughts on the new Ducati supermoto.
I am reviewing the bike as a normal customer, It felt OKAY compared to the KTM SMCR 690 & Husqvarna 701.
In generally the Ducati feels more like a naked bike in a supermoto body rather than full supermoto. At least this is how I felt while riding the bike. Maybe its because of the stock exhaust. Don't get me wrong the bike has a lot of torque and peaks speed very fast.
Compared to his rivals the Ducati comes standard with better gearbox & more electronics. The bike feels also smaller and is very easy to handle.
The only downside that the bike has for me is, that is little smaller and shorter. Here for you be able to take passengers with you.
Final thoughts... the only reason to go for this bike instead of the KTM or Husqvarna or even the GAS GAS is that it comes standard with better gearbox and has better dashboard screen with more possibilities of riding modes.
Thank you for watching my video, currently I am working on testing other bikes so I can deliver more content :)
Niffow

You have the wheelie control on , you see it on the dash every time you try it.

@smiffy9624 2 месяца назад

For anyone who has sat on one of these it doesn’t feel like a supermoto and it’s not raw like a 690 or 701 I know from test riding one last week

Is it cool? Yes. Is it worth almost double what I paid for my 690 smc? hell no….

@MaskedGearhead 3 месяца назад

How was your experience with the 690? I really would like a sumo but the reliability issue really prevents me from actually buying it. Can you tell us about your personal experience and maybe your friends opinion or people you’ve met regarding the KTM 690-subject. Thanks in advance

@Ukmongoose3 3 месяца назад

@@MaskedGearhead Hi, the only problem I have had in 10 years is a frayed wire that caused a misfire. I change the oil every 3000 miles and check the valves every 4000 or so. It has a full system and power commander and a Nova Racing long range gearbox, final drive is down 1 tooth at the front and up 3 at the back. No electronics. I love it. I can’t comment on other folks experiences really.

@@niffow I studied the user manual before going for the test ride and I have set everything just hidden behind the corner xD . After the test I bought this bike and I do not regret my decision. It is powerfull enough for wheelie and fun (I came from a CBR600RR). I suggest to put Wheelie control to 1 and not to disable, tried once and was backflipping!

@denser8401 5 месяцев назад

I saw a german comparison from these two bikes. They also done some races and even if the bikes have other rpm for the highest torquer/hp , they accerlerated excactly the same. So there was no difference in power ... But I like the 690/701 more because of the look, sound and the parts which are available

@niffow 5 месяцев назад

Yes it would be better if i had the option to test both of them next to each other. But from my experience the ducati felt smoother. Keep in mind that the bike is out not so long ago so aftermarket parts will come out soon

@SurFrankenRon 2 месяца назад

Dude adjust your speed in small landroads… you re never will react in time if for example a tractor suddenly will appear on the road. Nice vid tho…. Nice bike too… ordered mine 4 weeks ago.. delivery tomorrow 😊

@@niffowok man drive safe!… you look for a some heavier bike or something ?? I switched my 2020 Hypermotard 950 SP for this new 698 mono cause I look for a more lightweight for playing around…. I can tell you that the 950SP is a beast of a bike, awesome quickshifter too but so much power for the small roads here in Holland…. It s an expensive one tho😅…. Goodluck with finding a good bike !

@@edelduin6585 Thank you!!, Well as I said i sold my 690 to try something else but nothing else has really caught my eye. At least nothing else than Yamaha bikes. Especially the mt 09 sp gen 3. Looking into testing one coming days. After that it will be either MT 09 or again sumo probably 701 this time. In the perfect world where money wasn't really a barrier I would had both xd

is it possible to hide the cables showing on top?

@niffow 5 месяцев назад

Not really, because they need some free space to move freely. When you give gas the suspension of the bike goes up which makes them shorter. Unless you put new ones which are shorter.

@niffow 5 месяцев назад

I think you have missed inform your self. The bike i tested RVE model was 150+- kg. About the length, I found it to be at very comfortable height level. Feels like the 690 is taller, prob because of the bigger front forks that the 690 has.
