Any Complaints On The Hyper 950 ?

Discussion in 'Hypermotard' started by jose, Oct 3, 2019.

  1. Anybody have any complaints on the Hypermotard 950 SP if any yet ?
     
  2. None! After 1500 miles the bike, the fueling and everything else is spot on and I love the damn thing. The 939 SP I once owned does not even compare.
     
  3. No complaints here. The bikes a riot

  5. Around town i get about 44-45 MPG and when taking day rides on secondary roads I get 50-52 MPG. Based on that, 150-160 miles easy of driving normal, lol.
     
  6. Some of us are experiencing horrible stalling followed by bad restart issues.
     
  7. Sorry to hear that
    Had a few cutting out issues with mine when I was running in approx 150 miles on the clock but nothing since
    Got 2000 on now trip to Holland in 35° heat 300 mile done on a track day
    Only one concern there have been a few marks on top of the swing arm I thought it was clean oil coming from somewhere it has been back to the dealer and they said it could be petrol or brake fluid??
    Was told it's not oil they test ride it and gave it back
     
  8. Is this due to putting on a different exhaust without mapping? Or is it happening to stock bikes as well?
     
  9. See the other 'Post' Hypermotard 950 cutting out' started 24/4/19
    Since removing my Cat, fitting SP Project end cans and a Rexxer re-map, I have not had anymore issues - fingers crossed
     
  10. do you mean like V twins?
     
  11. Are the stalling issues solved on the 2020 and 2021 models?
     
  12. Got mine Jan 20, not had any issues at all
     
  13. Thank you!
     
  14. As I've bored the tits of everyone with going around in circles with my "accident reward" bike, I may as well continue! I thought that I had made my decision on the Supersort but i happened on this and I am intrigued! As I said before, this is just for fun. I have and ST2and ST3 that will be my touring bikes when I put them back together, but this looks fun. As I said before, this is just for fun and I don't care about range, depreciation and like that they say that you can junk the pillion footrests specifically, coz I'd dump them anyway. Only thing is that I would want to be doing 100 mile or so round trips on mainly 'A' and 'B' roads - is the seat ok?

  15. I went for a look see at Limoges Ducati last year. They look great. Very,very small when you sit on one though and as a consequence not for me.
     
  16. I've never sat on one, but it looks like I'd want a ladder to get on and of smoothly in a Fonzie kinda way...
     
  17. I'm 6'4 and struggle with the Hypermotard seat height whereas I flat foot on a 1200 Multistrada. Go figure. Andy

  18. I'm 5'8" and was definitely on tiptoes when I went out on one on a Ducati day test ride. The front washed out turning round at walking pace in a gravel farm entrance. Embarrassingly, due to the weight and seat height I couldn't hold it up and ended up with it laid on its side.
    Remarkably the Ducati guy was still trying to sell it to me even though I said that in my opinion for me, it needed to be 20kg lighter and 2" lower seat height.

  19. Yes, I'd have to try. The MCN review said that the guy who is around about the same height as me (just under 6') said he found it fine as it is so thin. Definitely in the mix though. it will be a while though, as I have to fail the driving assessment and take DVLA to court before I can try one.
