Yessss a man after my own heart, this is a hat I wanna do. Dunno if I can afford the Hypermotard but I want something powerful enough to go across Europe but still go off road when I wanna.
looks like a great bike for adv riding, power off road power on road, low weight, beeauuutiful on road ,off road, on beach , in city , in boulevards, in deserts, in france in usa, sounds perfect, ... a couple of soft bags and you can ride it from morocco to asia (maybe a small windshield...)

Haha thank you! If you check out my instagram, same username, you'll see I've done some real offroading and adv trips on this bike. I've dropped it and broken mirrors and handguards and added some battle scars but nothing serious. But I did recently get a real dualsport, xr250r, and am absolutely loving having a real dirt machine. I still like having the option of hitting some dirt on the hyper if I want. It's been a great bike for me and my riding style.
Great vid. My only concern with riding the Hyper on those roads is that the suspension must be harsh as hell on the rough stuff. Great choice of tire, though, and there's enough passerby traffic that riding alone with phone service seems fine. Just don't hit a deer. :)
Man, I love this. Would need crash bars if I were to do this with my hyper. Not going to bother though, going to be moving up to a multi probably next season, or the middle of it.
Looked pretty solid on the FS road. You've pretty much sold me on a DRZ400SM with TKC80's vs. a more traditional DS. Don't think I can swing the Hyper cause I can't afford to fix it when I drop it. ;)
Bear in mind anyone reading this old post TKC80 rears wear out FAST I only got one thousand miles on my KTM690 enduro and they are expensive! BTW one that is on a DRZ kind of budget probably wont be into the costs associated with TKC80 rear tires although they are ok while they last....check out Motoz for better wear and performance options
Love it! Looking at a new Duc..a Scrambler this time..or a DRZsm. Knobbies on both of course for this type of riding. Barnett's has a deal on an older HM and after seeing your clips, I may look into that now. Looking forward to new clips.
THIS IS ONE OF THE MOST FUN VIDEOS I HAVE WATCHED !! I CANT DECIDE BETWEEN A HYPERMOTARD OR A MONSTER, I LOVE THE PANIGALES BUT OUT OF BUDGET FOR ME :(
David Barrel commenting 3 years later ahahah ! Well you are going to hate me for this but i got a fairly good deal on a new yamaha r1 2018. I dont regret it at all. You cant watch some of my videos on my channel (probably will upload more after the covid 19). Enjoy summer mate ^^
The dealer laughed at me when i said i was going to throw knobbies on my Hyper. Look who's laughing now, Also what sliders are you running on the rear? I want something i can put my rear stand on without spending stupid money on a specific stand for this bike.
How's the ride on freeway on that kind of tire ? And is it true it wornout fast? How many miles do you get on that tire? Pls let me know cause I want to do that on my hyper 1100 .. Thanks in advance
Im wanting to get one of these just for offrading because I love the supermotos but don't love there slow speed, how's the handling offroad, how's the socks Handel big bumps and rocks etc would appreciate a reply!
Devin Gore I wouldn’t say supermotos are slow unless you mean maybe the wr250r. I went from a 2016 R6 to a 2015 DRZ400sm and I wouldn’t consider it slow. It definitely doesn’t have that warp drive feel of a super sport but it’s quick off the light. It also weighs about 100lbs less and it’s super nimble in the twisties. Throw on a pair of tkc 80’s and you can off road it too. Plus those new KTM’s and Huskies are pushing 75hp on a 320lbs bike
Hey "J.C.H". Nice vid'. I like to be middle of nowhere as well. Like the TKC80's as well. But that "undertail/skidbar" or what's it called, looks bad ass! May i ask where you bought it? Thanks in advance. Kind regards.
Hey thank you Khan. The skid plate is from SW-Motech. It's been great at protecting the oil filter and bottom of the engine from rocks and sticks. Definitely recommend it if you're going off the road.
Nice video, have you ever rode a Tenere 700? Just wondering how the feel compares to this. This seems pretty squirrely in the rough stuff, and so was the T7. Cheers
I haven't. I'd imagine the T7 would be better offroad than the Hyper being that it's a proper adventure bike and the hyper is basically a ducati monster with taller suspension haha. The hyper is pretty brutal offroad, definitely wouldn't recommend it for an adv bike.
great vid, just wondering how much of a werk out it is wrestling the bike around the trails, i have a ducati, not a hypermoto, but i know how they feel, so was wondering how tireing it is on the trails, i have a duel purpose bike i been riding 30 years and it is 400 pounds, and it is a great bike but can be a werk out at times, thought about a hypermoto fer years, but never felt like i'd want to risk the trails, but then also said to my self, its just a bike and it looked fun
What's up. I recently asked my Ducati dealership about the cheapest way to convert a hypermotard to a dual purpose bike, and the guy said all I'd really need is to change the tires. Would you agree with that statement? I really like this bike and I'm seriously considering it if I don't have to invest a fortune for light off road.
Honestly there are better suited and more affordable bikes out there for dual purpose riding. But if you are dead set on a Hyper then yeah the tires are really the only thing you need to change. I would also add a skid plate (mine is from SW-Motech) to protect the oil filter and bottom of the engine. There are a few of us Hyper guys than run dirt/adv tires and do lots of offroad riding. Motocorsa is a Ducati Dealer in Portland Oregon than has built a few dual sport hypers and multistradas along with a panigale with dirt tires haha
Continental tkc80. You should check out Motoz tractionator adventure tires too. They're beefier and last much longer than the ones I have on this bike.
SW-Motech, I do not recommend it though. The aluminum near one of the rivets holding the silver aluminum to the black aluminum started to tear from the vibrations of the motor. I emailed them about it and posted about it on IG and tagged them but they never responded.
Definitely rideable on regular roads. They grip well even leaned over if you watch some of my more recent videos on "GMR" I have these tires and am riding quick and leaning over quite a bit.
JetCityHooligan I hadn't realized the upgraded suspension also increased ground clearance. Keep riding it man, enjoyed the video! I have a set of Mitas E07 tires on my triumph tiger and it happily kicks around roads and trails like these as well.
Hey man, i was thinking between the hypermotard sp vs the 1250 GS. Although majority of my rides are in concrete roads but sometimes me and my friends go to distant places with unknown road condition. But i want an in-between bike for road and adventure. im still contemplating but i want the nimbleness of the Hypermotard compared to the heavy bulky BMW adventure. Let me know your thoughts
If you do mostly on road, I think the Hyper would be a great bike for you. It's a fun machine and absolutely shines in the twisty stuff. It's not very good offroad with its 17" wheels and it's fairly top heavy. The KTM 790 Adventure R would be my pick for a good 70/30 onroad/offroad machine. The Hyper is better for 95/5 onroad/offroad.
@@beefquiche do you mean the T7? The T7 was quite frightening off-road. It seduces you into thinking it can handle more, but when you get sideways or out of gyro the weight becomes deadly. Ditched it before it could ditch me high-siding, and potentially land on you with scalding hot pipes and 450lbs of weight.
Seems like a waste with all that pavement prowess castrated with knobbies while the 17 front is preventing great offroad ability? Seems like to me anyway. Wonder how it could be with a 19 front and 50/50 tires?
+aronjames pineda I think I have about 5000 miles on them now. The center of the rear tire probably has another 1000 miles or so left before it'll need changing but the front still has a ton of tread left.
considering this for a long travel on/off road bike. maybe switch up the suspension a bit. but lighter with good power... could you see yourself taking an adventure ride and showing up gs boys?
JetCityHooligan ya its a great club. Friend of mine started it. I been,with them since around that ssme time. Love the duc. Been,thinking of getting a hyperstrada myself. Just wish they had fork adjustments.
Yeah the base hyper and strada don't have adjustable forks but the SP has adjustable forks and rear shock. Even on full soft its too stiff for anything more aggressive than forest service roads and well groomed trails though. I've really abused the hell out of this bike riding it places it probably shouldn't be ridden. but it's served me flawlessly the past 3 years
@@BlueRage no this is Washington State. I'm originally from Washington, but I lived in California for 2 1/2 years and just moved back to Washington again.
Sitting alone in your home could be risky, you could have a stroke or heart attack and die. I'd rather be out having fun taking risks than being safe and not doing what I love.
I don't understand why people say these are so bad offroad, they have the ground clearance and you just need some tires, I offroad the fuck out of my full sumo (g650 xmoto) and it does perfectly fine, are most ducati owners just bitches?
They're not very good offroad, the suspension has a lot of travel but its super stiff for street and track riding. It could be revalved/resprung to make it more offroad friendly but it's not terrible so I've just left it alone. Haha Yeah I think most ducati owners and people who lust after ducatis cringe at the thought of getting one dirty or scratched up. It's a motorcycle, its not meant to be a spotless garage queen.
@@JetCityHooligan my sumo is way too soft with all the suspension at the hardest settings, when your jumping it and hit big bumps you want a hard suspension from what ive experienced
@@DolphinDivingChamp yeah but street suspension stiff and offroad suspension stiff are way different. If you ride a dirtbike and hypermotard back to back over jumps and rough terrain you'll see why one is a street bike that looks like a supermoto and one is an actual dirtbike, they're clearly way different suspension setups.
Epic soundtrack! Man that's a beautiful bike!
you're the only guy i've seen doing hard offroad with the hyper......but i love these videos! ahahah
+Multi3dmaster I wouldn't really call this hard offroad. I will be doing more intense stuff once I get more used to riding this thing offroad though
