Test Riding My Dream Bike! - Hypermotard SP
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 28 авг 2019
- Hey all!
The day finally came! I popped down to Ducati Manchester to test ride the Hypermotard 950SP. I only had the bike for a couple of hours and a lot of that was spent filtering through traffic (being a bank holiday weekend!) so this video may seem a little vague but I did what I could and it was planned the day before!
Best getting putting the lottery on..
Sorry my speaking audio isn't clear at all. I tried to improve my mic audio by adding one of those fluffy things but it actually just muffled the audio and made it sound worse so that's a lesson learnt!
Thanks to Mike at Ducati Manchester for making my ride possible! :)
On boards filmed with Gopro Hero 4.
Hope you enjoy the video and thanks for watching!

It’s bikes like this where i ask myself : “ ok what can i sell and or cancel subscriptions to...”
I agree the Duke is a fantastic looking bike and, per your comments, great to ride. However…..don’t give up on the MT09 SP. This bike has hidden charms if you are prepared to dial in the suspension. I have owned one since last November and have done 10,000 miles on it. In that time I have spent a lot of time adjusting the suspension and have arrived at the point where I am truly confident in its performance.
You do not need to reshim/revalve the forks or shock, these are quality units, the standard settings have been set by an engineer who has probably done 6 laps of a track without any regard to UK roads in the real world. Adjustments are easy, the only real manual work is (A) taking out the shock and manually adjusting the preload so you can use the full extent of the hydraulic preload adjuster and (B) changing the rake by moving the forks. Everything else is done via the normal external adjusters and some of these adjustments are quite significant. I am a couple of pounds over 10 stone and probably deemed a lightweight for a bike riding bloke, so I was experiencing an uncomfortable ride.
You are not going to get a plush, armchair ride, if you want that, you may need to buy an adventure bike. The Yam has a sports suspension and responds to adjustments quite dramatically, even change in outside temperatures once they get down to single figures produces a slightly different feedback. I have owned and ridden litre sports bikes for the past 12 years and thought I would be well prepared for the MT09. Wrong….I had to recalibrate my brain (and sort the suspension) before I got the best from this bike. You would forgive it’s minor foibles just for the performance of that engine !!
I have rambled on a bit, and not about your “dream ride” Duke. But the difference in price is 5 grand. Is that difference justified in performance/quality gains or does it become a subjective choice based on the badge. But there again it is your dream bike so there may be no contest!
Chaz, just a suggestion, but if you are still riding on standard settings, change them to suit your riding style and weight, use a bike tuning shop to help you (although I suspect you are competent enough having seen your videos on fitting extras to your MT09).
As an added note, purchase an official Yam fly screen, it will add an extra 20mph before you start experiencing uncomfortable naked bike wind blasts.
Just to finalise, I still have my Fireblade and consider it to still be a beautiful bike, but it hardly sees the light of day now, I just keep jumping on that badass Yam!!
Keep blogging, I look forward to your videos.
I know I need to go and get it set up for me I've been meaning to but just havent as of yet. It works fine for me standard on track though so I'm ideally I need to find a good middle ground for track and road. My main gripe is the throttle but I do love it and yes the costs! The maintenance of my MT costs me nothing because my boyfriend works for Yamaha which is why even though I love the Italian bikes I've never committed to one! I do still love the Hyper though and do hope to one day own one just when I'm a bit better off on money.
Old comment but in my opinion there’s nothing about the performance that you’re paying for when you want a hyper, you want the experience. Unbelievable amounts of power in a way too light dirtbike feeling motorcycle.
The hyper doesn’t do anything on a track, road, touring, or trail that any other bike can’t do better. But what it does is make you have more of a blast than anything else on the road while doing it
Ooooh I'm in heaven love that Duc shop! But you really need to find some corners. If you ain't at 45* plus lean angles, weaving up a mountain road , you not where Ducs shine. Nice video!
It's all that V Twin torque your feeling. Hope you get your dream bike someday. I'm 54 and have been waiting years to get another street bike. One more year and the KTM 1290 Super Duke is mine...I hope :)
It's an awesome bike, comfy and has torque like nothing else on the road
Hey Chaz👋 hopefully you've been safe and in good health during the pandemic. Just wanted to say your missed and hopefully you'll be back in the near future. I've really enjoyed all your vids 👍
And.... she's back !! Good to see you again Chaz , wicked bike!! 🏍🏍🏁🏁🌞👌
Great to see Denton roundabout in your video...as this is my neck of the woods.... the bike looks and sounds awesome......😁📽️👍👊✌️🏍️
I’ve always liked this bike too, but looking forward to seeing the upcoming Streetfighter V4. Thanks for sharing.
Ducati Manchester are really good. Super generous with test rides and they don't lay on the patter when you get back 👍
Yep exactly!😊
The good thing about buying a Ducati is you get to meet plenty of mechanics.
Aye 😂😂
Great video test on the Hyper, great to see a young lady into Ducati, you look awesome in your leathers too.
I hope I'll bump into you on my Ducati Streetfighter 1098 ..look forward to see more of your vids.
Lol 😅😅😅😜😜😜👍👍👍🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🌹🌹🌹
we older guys lived for decades with basic or no fuel gauges, ignore, forget, it is fine, the human mind looks after it. Yellow light = get fuel at next available opportunity but no rush, you have 40 miles of hard riding in the mean time (most likely), end of story. I have a fuel gauge in my street triple 675, 2 bars remaining = yellow light = 40 miles approx. I have gone 10 miles past 'zero miles' remaining on gauge without issue. Just forget the fuel gauge and ride the thing.
Exactly this! Motorcycles don't need fuel gauges. In fact, the experience is more beautiful and raw without one. Slosh, eyeball, estimate via ODO, 'know'... and of course, the fuel light will tell you when to pull in anyway. Love my '04 R1!
That’s my local dealership 😊 I’ve got a 950 and love it. I took an SP out and the base model. The base performed better on the road, it’s def the better option. I managed to get an Ex demo with termis and the DQS fitted. It’s probably one of the few exceptions where Ducati’s are concerned but if you do want one don’t rule the base model out at all. It’s just as quick and I think you’ll probably be faster on it than the SP due to better weight transfer, gives you a lot more feel and confidence to push harder. Good luck, hope you get your dream bike 👍
Fantastic looking bike, great vid Chaz👍👍👍
I've got the MT09-SP too. Don't think it handles badly as such. Just not as much confidence in the front as other bikes. I test rode a Ducati Supersport S at the weekend. Much more planted. And like you said, the brakes are good! Bit too noisy for my liking though!
Nice to see you back
Something about a Ducati! 🙃 I test rode one last year also and loved it as well! Go get it!
Great to see that smile on your face after getting to ride your dream bike. Great vid 👍
Good to see you back, Chaz. Nice ride, too btw. If I had the monies....
Hi it's nice to have a ride on your dream bike Ducati always deliver joyful experience an on a nice sunny day makes you feel at peace with world an nice clear road
You honestly dont need the SP!! Ive got the standard and its still top quality suspension. Save a few £ and just get the standard. Ive done decat and remapped and its a monster. Best bike i ever owned👌
But the paintjob is damn sexy haha i can risk little jimmy college fund for it
Nicely done! Fun footage and comment - much thanks for all you do!
good to see you back ducati was nice can't believe there's no fuel gauge
Sinse you were 14...? For fucks sake, make me feel old. I remember when they came out in '05. Seems like just a couple years ago. Shit, that was 14 years ago! Maybe I am old... Thanks for the video. Glad to see you uploading again. Missed you. 😘 Be safe.
I've got the same wanting for a Dorsoduro....shout out to woodhead and snake pass, great roads
I like the dorsoduro too but I dont feel it has anywhere near as much character as the hyper!
Wow Chaz great vid!!👍👍🤣..... now i dare you to hop on a KTM Superduke R and see if that brings a big smile to your face!!!! Keep up the great work👍👍🤣🤣. X
Nice bike, just checked out the pricing 🤑 wow. Oh and it was nice meeting you in the isle man this year, jak's Bar I think it was 👍🍻
Wow great vid , your most men’s dream , as a 1290 KTM rider ,you make me wanna switch to Ducati , look up South Africa we have lots of empty roads ,great wildlife ,warm weather and yes lots of bikers ! Keep it up your GREAT 👍
Hey Chaz just love in most of your videos you always seem to love riding so much:) as i get older i find i like being out by my self just ripping around and love'n it! Thx great video have a sunny day ;)
As always cool vids from chaz......!! gotta love it :)
Finally falling for the V twin grin ! We all get that riding big twins....... unparalleled torque, not to mention, wheelie machines ........
That Diavel is pretty sick as well... :-)
I'd have a Hypermotard happily. :-)
I agree, I shouldn't have done it either. I Sold my 2010 Yamaha Xj6 for a 2006 KTM 525. Gonna try hard to get a Hyper 2020.
I am glad, Ducati is your dream bike....we have something in common :)
My dream bike too... going through the direct access test just to own one. 43 years old and never rode a motorcycle until I saw a hypermotard 😍
That's just the effect they have.😎🤣
PistonHeadChaz you’re right there😀 you really suit the Ducati so I’d go for it😎. Smiles per miles is what it’s about.
Ooooh look at all those bikes.
always say to people if you have never rode a ducati then you will never understand. will never own another bike now apart from ducatis. yes, they are expensive, but it is so worth it. love my 899 to bits.
Hope your well chaz , come back we all miss your content 🏍😔
Nice ride out lovely views . I know what you mean bout fuel gauge I have hornet and I'm constantly checking the fuel tank . Makes me paranoid when I go out on long rides . You never know you might own one one day , nothing never impossible
If you chuck it rain mode and short shift( don't rev it over five grand ) you can get 59 klms out of it after the fuel light goes on. I found out this by testing it on the west coast of Tasmania. 🤪
Great machine! Congrats
Did they let you ride unaccompanied?
Ducati where I live (South of England) don't allow you to take them out alone. 😕
Yeah!
@@PistonHeadChaz Awesome!
I'll have to look for a better dealer. 😅
That is definitely a dream bike. Not many about so would be good to be different
Great to see a real splitter. Can't stand watching clips on here and seeing guys and girls on motorbikes sit behind traffic. Ex Aussie motorcycle courier here. And I own one. Little old now, but still a hoot. 821 sp 2013. I would definitely trade it in for the standard. After owning an sp, six grand difference in Australia is a huge asking asking price and I think just not that worth it. The marzocchis work fine for the road ( only really dive when heavy on the brakes and sitting foward ) and the standard wheels would do me fine. I would test ride the standard and see if I could tell the difference between the sp wheels. Glad you enjoyed your day out on your dream home. Check out the bimotta db 10. My dream bike.
I don't understand why bikers sit in traffic! Good to hear.😊
Great vid Chaz 👍
Great video and lovely bike
Once you go ducati. Theres no looking back!😂👍👌
Be good to see an MTB video on your new specialised if you fancy letting us into your new world sometime . Maybe when the weathers better :) I’m doing bike park wales this year
New bike..new look too?😁..looking forward.gudluck chaz.
I wish haha.
Hi Chaz, if you feel your MT09 feels like it doesn't want to turn as nimbly as the Ducati, it might be worth looking at your tyre choice again. I changed the original Bridgestone S20 on my XSR900 to Continental Road Attack 3 and it was a revelation. It turns much easier, is much more "flickable" and feels a lot more stable during long turns. Just an idea... I know dream bikes tend tobe irresistible :) Anyway love to see more new videos by you.
Hi, can you tell me what bar end mirrors you have on your 09 please. Thanks ✌️
I've aways wanted a supermoto as a second bike for commuting to work but unfortunately I'm such a short arse I struggle to reach the ground on them 😭
I want the 950sp so bad haha still um and arghing.
Glad to hear you think its a step up from the mt9 but i assume it would be at that price!
😀 I've done exactly the same thing... went for test drive on superduke r and now I want one... there is something about that v2... I'm away to ask my boss for pay rise...
I hope you get the pay rise!😝
Nice to see you enjoying yourself there Chaz, so you came over the Snake to my neck of the woods huh.. ummmm well all I can say is you know what you want then go for it Chaz make it happen I'm sure you can get a deal through some finance company for one, and Ask your Boss for a raise too never hurts to ask. ;) hope you get your Dream Bike
Hi, could you tell me if the bar end screw thing is the same as the MT07? i planned to reuse my bar end mirrors to put on my future 09. Thx
Hiya Chaz.
New to your channel and have subscribed to it also.
Looking for a bike at the moment mt10 is winning at the moment lol.
Keep up the good work all your blogs are interesting.
Thanks
Those 999s ❤️
NIce! I just picked up a new 950 SP, it is glorious :>
Great looking bike and with the right exhaust it would make the complete package
Definitely!
Nice review :) how tall are you?
What interested you to like the hyper motards?
Do you still have the MT-10?
After watching YES MAN, I fell In-love with the Hypermotard 😁
Thanks for the episode. Nice bike but I'm still a '9 fan.
Would it be a good bike for track days though?
Awesome!
Great bike I love them
Hi Chaz. Hope you are doing good!
I wanted to ask you if I add a high performance air filter and the akrapovic titanium to an mt 07, will that add more power to the bike? A little bit more power maybe??
Hello Chaz, nice video! I also own a pair of those Knox Handroid gloves, love'em!
All those Panigales 🤤
Congrats!!
I always thought the Hyper was the sexiest bike alive so I bought a 16 SP. If you're going to buy I'd suggest spending the extra cash and get the SP else you'll regret it later.
We all awaiting new content, you can do it !
Whoa whoa whoa … another vlog?!? We are being spoiled! I don't know diddly squat about bikes but yeah, no fuel gauge seems strange. Anyways, another great vlog and great scenery. Hope you find a way to buy one soon :) Maybe a rich 98 year old bf with a very weak heart?
Hahaha I know right!
Really love your video! If I may ask though, how tall are you? The Hypermotard is my dream bike also, but I'm only 170cm-ish tall. The closest stock motorcycle that I have tried with approximately the same seat height was Honda CRF 150 and Kawasaki KLX. Never tried the Hypermotard to find out, sadly.
Your video here makes me wanting to just save money like crazy and buy the Hypermotard no matter what...
Rode my friends SP and liked it.You should try the ktm 690 smc r.It was even more fun.Felt like it was half the weight of the sp
Currently looking at moving on from the Street 765 RS - I think the Hypermotard SP is the next logic step. The RS is great, but....it's sometimes a little too smooth and perfect. I appears the Hyper is a lot more 'fun'?
I went from a 765 rs to a 950 sp and haven’t looked back. So much more fun of a bike than the street triple
@@422shaun I ended up buying a Thruxton RS brand new - only because last year there were zero new Hypers knocking about. Therefore jealous of your SP - I saw one on the road the other week in a city centre - looked awesome! Enjoy :-)
Hi! How tall are you? They said SP is much taller than the standard.
I'm seriously considering an MT09 SP but have you ridden the MT10, how does it compare? I've ridden the MT10 and it was bonkers but I've not ridden an MT09.
The 10 is nuts. A bit too much for me!
Whatever you do Chaz do not test the ktm superduke 1290r. I did and now I can't afford to buy food .
I think it would be too much for me anyway haha
@@PistonHeadChaz I think you would be surprised if you rode one how friendly they can be , There only a beast when you ask for it . Go treat yourself
Nice one Chaz keep it up, you definitely have potential to be huge on here pretty quickly, then you can get one 😎👍
I doubt that haha. Thank you though.😊
@@PistonHeadChaz
You shouldn't doubt it, or yourself. He's right. You're beautiful, talented, and competent. You provide interesting content, and that accent... 😍. Don't shit yourself, you're pretty cool, n we like what you do. Thank you.
How does a brand new bike have no fuel gauge?
🤷♀️
Soon as we are free guna test one off these definitely 👍
Hey Chaz, are you doing any new content for this channel? Stay safe ✊😁👊
I doubt it, she rides mountain bikes now... 😐🙁🤷🏾♂️
Miss your channel Chaz 😢 hope you’re well.
Thats a lot of trips to A&E in that warehouse
Chaz like the little eyebrow slice. How do you keep that make up from smudging when you have your helmet on haha?. Bike looks great it reminds me of the apprila Tuono.
It does smudge haha
@@PistonHeadChaz You have to give us a before and after one day haha. ;)
this is my dream bike too..
really happy for you..😊😊😊
Ducatis are the best.....love it in terms of looks and performance :D
I've ridden the hypermotard and I found it too narrow for me , it's very focused only really one purpose . Try the ktm 990 smt , that's the bike I own and have done 5k miles on . Much better engine much more comfortable. . I think cheaper or same money . You will love it . Great video and glad you enjoyed the Ducati :)
But that bike was done like 7 years ago now? Had one myself. Great bike. What did you think the 990 motor was better than the 950 Ducati motor? About the exact same power. Which I guess is saying KTM had this level and type of bike down in 2011....$14,000 back then.
@@tomtraynor5384 ducati is quicker I reckon a bit , the motor in ktm.mych better and much comfier I payed 6000 euros for my one
@@tomtraynor5384 they should remake the 990 smt ! I think they're doing a 790 smt like that adventure bike
Nice one Chaz, you'll soon have your dream bike.
Hmm I'm not too confident on soon haha.
Thanks for the review. You're the reason I bought a hyper 950 with full termi. Sounds sick. Do you still get out on a motorbike or are you all mtb now?
Ah Brilliant! I'm jealous!🤣 Noo just Mountain bike now.😊
@@PistonHeadChaz oh no, nearly worthy of a thumbs down that 😂😭
Okay so I’m 15 and the Hypermotard 950SP is my Dream Bike too since last year 😂
Weeeirrrd😂
It's all about the torque
Isn’t yours supposed to be nimble also? What about compared to the MT-07? Is the 07 as nimble?
Not compared to the hyper it isnt! The MT07 was probably more nimble.
Awesome video!! May i ask how tall are you? This is my dream bike too!!
Great video and now I want one of them...
Hi from Australia, love the vids
Great video love the bike when are you going to do some more videos.
Ducati Hypermotard is also my dream bike 👍
How tall are you and how much of your feet can you touch the ground with?
Really surprised you haven't uploaded yet given the nice weather ...Are you ok ..👍
I’m too nervous about buying anything that is not Japanese when it comes to bikes. I really enjoy hearing how they ride from people like yourself however.
Me too! I worry about the maintenance costs but I do really want one!
valid concern... My warranty is coming to an end on my 939 and I'm real scared haha. Though it's had no problems so far with 11k miles. It's an amazing bike
Flor Me Not too much difference tbh now that Ducati has increased the service intervals.
Bruh all 3 motorcycles in my motorcycle plans are European.
