DUCATI Hypermotard 939 (2016-2017) Specs, Performance & Photos

The Ducati Hypermotard was a supermotard motorcycle manufactured by Ducati and designed by Pierre Terblache. In 2005, at its presentation at the EICMA Trade Show in Milan, Italy, the bike received the "Best of Show" award.

Several years later, in 2015, the Italian motorcycle manufacturer presented the Ducati Hypermotard 939, a naked motorcycle part of the Hypermotard family, released as a replacement for the 821 model. The bike was also available in Hypermotard SP and Hyperstrada versions.

Due to EURO4 standards, the bike received a new engine with the same stroke as its predecessors but with a larger bore, increasing the displacement. In addition to better emissions, the power was also increased, with a significant 10 percent increase in torque.

The bike was fitted with standard features in the aesthetic departments, such as a duck beak-style front fairing, redesigned side panels, a one-piece dual seat, a redesigned exhaust system, and redesigned 10-spoke lightweight wheels.

In addition, the bike came with a Ducati Safety Pack (DSP) that included eight-level Ducati Traction Control (DTC) and a Brembo Anti-Lock Braking System (ABS) for improved safety in any road conditions. Also, the ride was enhanced by a ride-by-wire system with three selectable riding modes.

The 2016 Ducati Hypermotard 939 had at its core a 937cc four-stroke liquid-cooled L-twin engine that delivered an output power of 113 hp at 9,000 rpm and 98 Nm (72 lb-ft) torque at 7,500 rpm.
