Ducati Hyperstrada 2015

The bike is certainly a terrific supermoto with practical use for the city and also for short tours, but on the winding mountain roads in the Alps the bike seems altogether too unbalanced. It is very agile, but almost a little too nervous.

Anyone who thought the new 8980 SMT would play an unnecessary supporting role between the 890 Adventure and 890 Duke models was probably mistaken. Rarely before has a motorbike managed to do so much what it suggests on the outside with its looks. So the 890 SMT wants to be moved in a sporty way - and can do that particularly well. However, with the fairing, the well-padded saddle and the upright seating position, even long distances are easy to master. The brakes have a firm grip and the handling feels extremely agile, even in tight corners. The motto of the 890 SMT is clearly travelling AND racing!
