Did my first track day last weekend with a 8 hour lesson (combination of riding and theory) and it was the best experience on 2 wheels of my life. First time truly pushing my limits and it felt incredibly addicting.
something to note, this bike NEEDS the exhaust. stock it basically has no low end and struggles in the low rpms, with the exhaust it opens up the low end a ton and makes the bike 10x better
You nailed it for who it’s for. I live close to the Dolomites and ride there a lot, also lots of other mountain passes in Austria and Italy. This bike is made for exactly that. If you ever ride our part of the world you will see endless KTM’s and Husqvarna’s tearing it up on the steep twisties. These bikes are everywhere whereas the older generation are riding GS’s and other adventure bikes. Ducati know their market here and where this bike is gonna excel. Fast, nimble, lightweight machines rule the alpine twisties!
That bike looks like a ton of fun! I dont ride long distances or commute to work. It would be amazing to go out and just ride around for an hour or two on the weekend with this bike and have a good time.
Watching your enthusiasm on track got me so excited haha. Literally got butterflies from watching you ride XD. Can't wait till I get my motor license!!!
Hi Yammie I know you'll laugh but I own a 1957 Ducati 125cc Marianna - I say this because it's a SINGLE CYLINDER 125cc Bevel Driven engine. So the Mono isn't the ONLY single cylinder from Ducati! LOVE your Channel! Thanks friend come up for a visit anytime.
One of my favorites. The Termignoni really wakes it up and also adds "wheelie assist". So fun and so easy to ride. Its what I take for short trips over my Streetfighter V4.
As an owner of this bike I don’t understand why Ducati marketed this bike the way they did. It’s either for someone who wants a supermoto, but doesn’t want to be limited by it being a supermoto. Tall gears, seemingly reliable, all safety features can be turned off, low maintenance intervals. I think of it more for people like me who have other Ducati’s, but want a little fun one also. I live near mountain roads where they are tighter and bumpy AF. This bike is king!
OMG!!! DUCATI? Why are they not going to make a modern SuperMono? I was so excited when I discovered their new 659cc Superquadro single. The tech in that engine is amazing. It is screaming to be installed into a light weight super sport chassis!!!! COME ON DUCATI !!! I would be on the preorder list as of yesterday if they decided to build a 80 hp-ish, sub 135kg supersport. I already have a ZX4rr, but that platform isn't without it's flaws. At least stock, Graves and other aftermarket parts definitely help, but they only go so far. The reality is, the ZX4RR isn't designed around a premium chassis, it has an average chassis with some mediocre factory go fast parts bolted on. The ZX4RR doesn't even have a cassette style trans. How can Kawi call the ZX4RR SuperSport? Don't get me wrong, I absolutely love my ZX4RR, but it could be way better. If Ducati entered that segment with a premium chassis, a free revving 80hp engine, and an all up wet weight of around 135kg/300lbs, (priced around $10-10.5k) They would sell faster then Ducati could build them. Come on Ducati, you already have the engine, you know how to make an amazing chassis, just build it!!
Got this as my 2nd bike because I wanted something that at more upright as opposed to my r6. I absolutely LOVE it, he’s not kidding when he says it’s a riot. Not a highway bike even though it can be done but you have to sit super far forward especially at 80+ to combat that floaty front tire feel. But again the fun this bike brings is unreal. I still love my r6 as it was my first bike and wouldn’t say I have a favorite between the two. They both are great at different things and to me make the perfect stable. If you have the money go get one of these!! Also if you buy the termignoni race exhaust from Ducati they unlock an additional wheelie assist feature that actually does hold you in wheelies.
17:05 Probably because the quickshifters on these engines are merely an afterthought. When was the last time a brand-new single cylinder engine came out?
Ducati people aren’t the main ones buying this bike. It’s KTM people who are tired of cam issues. Literally Ducati couldn’t have lucked into a better time to unveil this.
I’m so confused. Your whole theory about what is this bike for. Um what are sport bikes for. How are sport bikes on the road? LOL uncomfortable seat but way better seating position is way better for road riding compared to being hunched right over. This bike is amazing and if you own one then congrats cause it’s SUPER fun and id way rather ride my mortard than any sport bike and I’ve owned ALOT of sport bikes in the past
With the greatest respect, if you don’t want to lose your license for speeding I imagine this bike is plenty good for any kind of road. To say it only makes sense in the dolomites is a bit weird.
I have been riding sporbikes for ages. Just picked up my Husky DMR450. And it feels very strange. Like sitting on top of a bike about to fall over. Rather than like sitting in the middle of the bike such as my fzr

If Moto 3 ever goes to a spec chasis/motor in the future, Ducati would be crazy not to jump on the opportunity with this motor in a GP spec chassis! I believe it would be horrible as an ADV/dualsport bike. Too much top end, not enough low down torque. Too nice to abuse in the dirt.
You talk in contradictory circles and its hard to understand ANY of your "Review." For example you go "I'm learning to wheelie still." Then you go "This thing wont allow you to do 12 o'clock nooners." You don't know how to wheelie but you give blanket statements and then mention turning off "DWC"??? You make 0 sense bro......
The problem is you. He didn’t say you couldn’t do nooners. He said you couldn’t do nooners “and the computer just does everything for you.” In other words, the wheelie assist makes modest wheelies easier but you still need some skill to really do it well.
Wery stif chasy,front brake is brutal, for me dont have enaugf power... exhaust must be! Very god toy. But very expensive.... KTM is beter choise ! 100%
This is the bike you will never buy but you wish you had one.
New subscriber here what bike do you drive
I'm buying one this spring
Why would you never buy one?
Because it's over priced for what it is. This should be a $7000 bike tops. 0@@brandon-kg2vd
@@brandon-kg2vdKinda pricey for what it is. However, it looks like a lot of fun!

Ducati engineers had a boozy lunch and went full skunkworks
Cool bike! Ducati made many single cylinder production bikes back in the day (60’s - 70’s)
Great bike.. love mine (and my 950 SP).. done track days, twisties, off-roading on the 698 and 2K miles later still love it 🔥
Yessss. Finally. I’m planning on it to be my next bike, but the 950.
Do most riders need this bike? Much like the Kawasaki ZX-4RR, the answer is no. But its still awesome that it was made regardless
Test road one a year ago, loved it! Didn’t buy it as I’d lose my licence 😂
Gotta be here when the vid comes out so show the support🤷🏽♂️ liked the vid after 30 seconds of being posted🤙🏽

Definitely missing out if they don’t make a light adv version of this bike
A Monster version with this engine would be an instant buy for me
This would be great if you lived near the Tail of the Dragon
It’s brand new, how do we know that Ducati won’t use this on an enduro or a light adventure bike?
This draws so many parallels to the vitpilen 701
Day 1 of asking yammie to ride a classic 350 for the shits and giggles
Love mine, it's hilarious! Definitely a second or third bike in the stable though.
I didn't hear a thing you said. All I can think about is getting some Magic Spoon cereal as soon I am able.
they really should make a hyper-enduro 698
Rumor has it that they’re going to. Would be insanely sick
They built this bike for me. I love it. It's a great urban weapon. Mystery solved.
Nice bike that one like the supermoto’s but my brain isn’t prepared for that type of ride 😂.
I live in a country where doing 88mph would put me in jail. However there are loads of tight twisty roads here. I want one !
HyperMotard is a diabolical name
Really popular bikes in Europe. The Husky 701 sm is really common in the Viking countries.
Yammy what is your favorite bike to ride 200 miles
I’d be cool if they re-styled with some retro flavor to cannibalize the scrambler.
I'd love to see a Streetfighter V1S. JS
Great bike to own within warranty.
Ah yes, the Matthew Woods Mobile
How do you do this everyday 😮
With a giant smile…
Ducati made singles way before twins. Check out the beautiful 1964 Mach 1 250.
Oil change every 500 miles
?
Yes, it is basically half a 1299 Engine. But no, it is not 645cc. It is 659cc.
I would love to see this VS my 450 smr
They need to put this engine in a panagale. It would sell.
Can you review the 800nk
The point of this bike is to take husqvarna 701 customers, fantastic bike to ride. I’d love to take this Ducati for a spin
Ducati people aren’t the main ones buying this bike. It’s KTM people who are tired of cam issues. Literally Ducati couldn’t have lucked into a better time to unveil this.

so it sounds like we finally get to say that a Ducati is less finicky than a KTM? Cause it’s basically an Italian KTM.
Is this not just as dangerous as a liter bike?
Usually, you start with a dirt bike and slap on street wheels to make a super moto. People are going to be doing the opposite with this thing! 😃
Slap some 50/50’s and some sprockets on it. Do 85+ on the freeway. Not comfortable but fun as F
That motor is going in a supermono ducati with 916 styling
i wonder how it feels in your palm when you rev up
tried svartpilen 701 and it almost ruined my hands, too uncomfortable 😂😂😂
With the greatest respect, if you don’t want to lose your license for speeding I imagine this bike is plenty good for any kind of road. To say it only makes sense in the dolomites is a bit weird.
Depending on the price, it may be an attempt to make an entry point in the brand. Time will tell.
Would never own one because of the seat height lol 😢😂
Built for a tax writeoff!? Yammie you aint that stupid 🤦♀️🤦♀️ the single cylinder supermoto market will always be a staple of the moto industry.
I have been riding sporbikes for ages. Just picked up my Husky DMR450. And it feels very strange. Like sitting on top of a bike about to fall over. Rather than like sitting in the middle of the bike such as my fzr
SMR....
I'm satisfied with my 200 cc bike
