Notice at 1:23, the exhaust is up high, vs. the stock pics, where the exhaust is low.

That would be an accessory exhaust.

Would be nice if it came with a Termi stock. The stock exhaust on my 08 must weigh 25lbs...

Not much info but there's a promise of more to come.

Ducati's all-new, water-cooled, 2013 Hypermotard is currently being put through its paces in southern Spain by MCN Senior Road Tester Michael Neeves. Here are his first impressions:

The Ducati Performance titanium exhaust looks quite similar to the stocker. It is lighter. It felt like about 10-12 pounds. The higher Termi was on the SP we
saw and looks very cool. You can still fit a bag mount and bag on n the left side if you wish.
Still not sure which model we will ride in two weeks , but I think it will most likely be the Hypermotard. I think those are the first on the assembly line. I think there is a possibility of some Hyperstradas but I doubt we will sample the SP. It would be nice. Fingers crossed.

Finaly got to see the new Hypers this past weekend at the Charlotte IMS. With the exception of the exhaust I think that it's a good looking bike. I'm really interested in the Hyperstrada version. The bike's apearance still holds true to its supermoto inspired roots. Way to go Ducati.

My mates 2008 HM speedo from the 19th of January.



Apparently it still reads the same today.

Any of you guys know of a fix?

Did he actually hit 99,999 km and stop counting? Possibly an ECU reflash? Best bet would be over on Ducati.ms under the Hyper section. Lots of guys in the Hyper know-how over there.

Question for those in the know: There is a 2010 Hyper SP with the CalWorks Tank, sliders and a few other bits for sale in my area. It looks to be a consignment sale and the bike has about 7K miles. The asking price is $10K. Is this a reasonable price for a bike with these mods?

I've been drooling over the Hyper since it came out and always talk myself out of it: not practical, Ducati maintenance, not what I need, blah blah blah. Since I am divorced now, and only have to consider what I like for myself, a tasty, impractical bike is high on my list. Is it worth it to drop this much coin for a bike that is soon to be "previous generation"? I still have my SV1000n decked out for sporty touring, which is a hoot, but the motor sometimes overwhelms the chasis. I'd like something a little sharper for tooling around/hooliganism/lady hunting.
