Ducati Hypermotard Features and
Benefits
Design
The Hypermotard prototype was an instant success when first shown in 2005 and
soon became a top seller when its production started in 2007. Since then, its
unique design has excited riders around the world and praise for this thrilling
and versatile model has never stopped and neither has its development.
2013 sees the introduction of the
next generation design, embracing the original character and enhancing its
adventurous dirtbike-inspired look with visibly high ground-clearance, sharp and
high tail-piece and thin waistline - design elements that characterise this type
of motorcycle, whether used for road or track While the new Hypermotard
maintains the concept of off-road handguards, it now introduces a new style of
rear view mirror that follows the models clean design continuity. Attention to
the detail of flowing lines has resulted in maintaining the essential,
minimalist image of the family, even with the complexity of packaging a
liquid-cooled engine. Proportion, ergonomics and practicality shaped this new
generation of Hypermotard and the integration of Ducatis latest technologies,
such as second generation Testastretta 11° engine, Ducati Safety Pack, Riding
Modes and LED illumination, underlines its absolute Ducati character.
Chassis The Hypermotard has a new 34mm diameter tubular steel Trellis frame with 25.5° of rake and trail and offset of 104mm (4.1in) and 30mm (1.2in) respectively, providing a sure-footed, stable feel without compromising the Hypermotards character-forming agility. The frame marries to a die-cast sub-frame and incorporates a Multistrada-like techno-polymer mid-section as part of the assembly. The Hypermotard retains its highly manoeuvrable 70° of lock-to-lock steering movement, while the wheelbase now increases to 1500mm (59in), further enhancing the Hypermotards stability at speed. A totally revised fuel tank has increased capacity by 3.6 litre (0.9 US gal) to 16 Liters (4.2 US gal), improving the overall autonomy of the Hypermotard while maintaining its slender waistline and compact silhouette. Instrumentation The Hypermotards compact instrumentation console has been designed with warning lights across the upper section, which illuminate for neutral, turn signals, high-beam, rev-limit, oil pressure and fuel reserve and an LCD screen with dot matrix area below for all other information. The screen presents data for speed, rpm, total mileage, trip1/trip2, engine coolant temperature and ambient air temperature and time. Additionally, the display also presents current fuel consumption, average fuel consumption, average speed, and journey time. The display constantly shows the selected Riding Mode, including the associated ABS and DTC level programmed, with all three Riding Modes easily changed, while stationary or in motion, by simply scrolling through displayed modes using the indicator cancel button. When stationary, buttons on the left-hand switchgear can be used to enter a setting menu from where adjustments to the various functions can be made including personalised ABS (1-3+OFF), DTC (1-8+OFF) and power delivery via Ride-by-Wire (Low-Medium-High). All settings are saveable in the instrumentations memory and can easily be returned to factory settings with a simple default function.
The system can also memorise and list the last 30 recorded lap times by using the high-beam flash button as a stopwatch, each lap time also memorising the lap number and the corresponding maximum speed and rpm during that lap. The instrumentation is also system-ready to accept the heated grips Ducati accessory, which then produces its own control menu, selectable by scrolling through with the engine starter button. Lighting The headlamp uses a very compact and lightweight assembly, which employs a single parabola for high and low beam functions using a blue vision bulb and LED positioning light. For the rear, a specially designed strip of LEDs, enhanced by a high diffusion lens shaped into the sleek lines of the tailpiece, acts for both rear light and brake lights. Front directional indicators are stylishly integrated into the handguards, keeping the lines of the Hypermotard as clean as possible. A hazard light function is also added to the new Hypermotard models, activated by holding the left-turn signal button on for four seconds. Controls The Hypermotards full Ride-by-Wire introduces a new and compact electronic twist-grip, perfectly matching the minimalist styling of the models slim-line switch bodies. They house easy-to-use switches and buttons, and feature a unique weapons-like 'trigger catch' that slides down to cover the starter button when the killswitch is activated. All models now have conventional control cable actuation for the clutch and four-point adjustable levers for the front brake, five-point on the SP. Black finished footpeg supports are formed in high pressure die-cast aluminum with integrated heel guards and support rear brake and gear shift pedals in forged aluminum. Ducati Safety Pack (DSP) Ducatis Riding Mode technology incorporates three-level ABS and eight-level DTC to introduce the Ducati Safety Pack (DSP) concept to the Hypermotard family, further underlining the focus on performance safety.
Ducati Riding Modes Ducatis industry-changing Riding Modes effectively offer optimized settings appropriate to rider and environment by selecting from a choice of three pre-set modes according to model. Each Riding Mode is pre-programmed to instantly change engine character, ABS and DTC intervention - even while riding. The modes are made possible by combining a number of class-leading technologies.
An electronic Ride-by-Wire (RbW) system administers different mappings to regulate power delivery, while the Ducati Traction Control system (DTC) uses eight levels of system interaction to enhance control by reducing rear wheel-spin and the ABS processor provides pre-programmed levels of anti-lock braking.
Hypermotard Riding Modes
Sport
The Sport Riding Mode provides 110hp, delivered with a High RbW throttle
response, reduced DTC system intervention and level-one ABS of high braking
performance with reduced lift-up prevention.
Touring
The Touring Riding Mode provides 110hp, delivered with a Medium RbW throttle
response, increased DTC system intervention and level-two ABS with maximum
braking stability and lift-up prevention.
Urban
The Urban Riding Mode provides 75hp, delivered with a Low RbW throttle
response, further increased DTC system intervention and level-two ABS with
maximum braking stability and lift-up prevention.
Ride-by-Wire (RbW)
The Ride-by-Wire (RbW) system is an electronic interface between the twistgrip
and the engine which decides the ideal power response depending on the Riding
Mode selected and according to the riders throttle input. The twistgrip no
longer uses a cable to control the throttle body butterflies, but instead
delivers a signal to a control unit, which in turn operates the butterfly
opening. The RbW system enables the use of three different mappings to regulate
the power delivery. The three maps offer 110hp with a high sportstype
delivery, 110hp with a medium progressive delivery suitable for touring and
75hp with a low reduced
delivery for city or rain use.
Ducati Traction Control (DTC)
The Ducati Traction Control is an intelligent system which acts as a filter
between the riders right hand and the rear tire. Within milliseconds, DTC is
able to detect and then control rear wheel-spin, considerably increasing the
bikes active safety and performance and an important component of the Ducati
Safety Pack (DSP). The new Hypermotard uses the very latest DTC software, now
optimized with seamless intervention to ignition timing only.
The system offers eight levels of
sensitivity, each programmed with a level of rear wheel-spin tolerance in line
with progressive levels of riding skills classified from one to eight. Level one
is programmed to offer the least amount of interaction while level eight uses
the most amount of interaction. DTC is an integral part of the pre-programmed
Riding Modes on all Hypermotards.
DTC levels are factory pre-set in
each of the three Riding Modes, but can be individually customised and saved to
suit the rider by accessing the set-up menu within each mode. A Default option
is available to easily return all settings to factory pre-sets.
Bosch Brembo Braking system with
3-level ABS
Included as an integral part of the Ducati Safety Pack (DSP), the 2013
Hypermotards are equipped with the Bosch ABS 9MP controlled Brembo braking
system, an impressive combination of state-of-the-art security and proven
performance. Shorter stopping distances with enhanced stability are vital
prerequisites for all motorcycles, but adding full Riding Mode interaction takes
Hypermotard braking to the next level.
The front brakes use twin radially-mounted
Brembo, four piston, Monobloc M4-32 callipers actuated by master cylinders with
a four-point adjustable lever on the Hypermotard and five-point on the high
performance radial master cylinder of the SP. The fronts grip 320mm discs, while
a single 245mm disc on the rear is gripped by a single Brembo caliper. Typical
of all Ducatis, these components ensure high performance braking and set the
standard in this segment.
Both 2013 Hypermotard models are
fitted with the Bosch-Brembo ABS system as standard equipment, delivering
outstanding braking performances in all conditions and providing a major
contribution towards performance safety. An option to disable the ABS in each
individual Riding Mode is available via the instrumentation, and the system
allows the setting to be saved and memorised at the next ignition-on.
Introducing the 821cc Testastretta
11°
When developing the new power unit for the next generation Hypermotard,
engineers analysed capacity and bore/stroke ratio to create the optimum
combination of tractability and Hyper performance. The 821cc Testastretta 11°
engine introduces and ideal, all-round performance-producing 110hp (80.9kW) @
9,250rpm with a wide and ride-enhancing 65.8lb-ft (9.1kgm) of torque @ 7,750rpm
underlining its pure Ducati character.
The four valves per cylinder,
liquid-cooled engine has a compression ratio of 12.8:1 and measures 821cc from
an 88mm x 67.5mm bore and stroke, which provides a wide range of torque and an
impressive and practical peak horse power value. The engine, which is cooled by
a high efficiency radiator mounted with twin electric fans, breathes through two
52mm, full Ride-by-Wire throttle bodies which integrate three maps into the
Riding Modes.
The new 821cc Testastretta 11°
adopts a number of operation-enhancing features introduced in the second
generation Testastretta 11° DS for the 2013 Multistrada, including repositioned
fuel injector spray targets and a secondary air system. In order to achieve a
smoother cycle-to-cycle engine operation, it is necessary to increase the fuel
injected during specific engine operations, and to achieve this without
affecting emissions, a secondary air system has been used. This optimisation of
fuel-mapping without compromising emissions is achieved by completing the
oxidisation of unburned hydrocarbons, which reduces HC and CO levels. The system
is activated when the engine ECU recognises specific conditions in the engines
operation via the lambda and throttle opening sensors. It then opens a valve
enabling a flow of clean air from the main airbox to a reed valve situated in
each cylinder head, which enables one-way flow into an air gallery exiting into
the exhaust port close to the exhaust valve. Entering the hottest point of the
exhaust gasses, the fresh charge of air enhances the burn environment,
eliminating any unburned fuel that escapes during the exhaust cycle under
certain conditions.
For increased user-friendliness, Engineers reduced the amount of valve over-lap from around 40° - typical in performance engines that operate constantly at high RPM - to just 11°. This reduced peak horse-power slightly, but enhanced mid-range and overall smoothness - perfect prerequisites for the extreme versatility of the new Hypermotards. The overlap angle is defined as the interval of crankshaft rotation, measured in degrees, during which both the intake and exhaust valves are open at the same time. This overlap occurs between the end of the exhaust stroke and the start of the intake stroke. On the Testastretta 11° engine, this angle has been reduced and the fresh inlet flow less compromised by the exiting exhaust gases, resulting in a much smoother combustion, improved fuel economy and lower exhaust emissions. Unburnt hydrocarbon emissions (pre-catalyser) and specific fuel consumption (and consequent CO2 emissions) are considerably reduced. The new engine is equipped with an APTC, oil bath clutch with slipper function and light feel at the lever. Its design uses a progressive self-servo mechanism that presses the plates together when under drive from the engine, enabling the reduction of the clutch spring rates. Now further simplified, in true Hypermotard style, with the use of a control cable actuation, it achieves an even lighter clutch lever at the handlebar, ideal in stop-start traffic or long journeys. When the drive force through the transmission is reversed (over-run), the self-servo mechanism also reverses, reducing the pressure on the clutch plates and enabling them to provide a race-like slipper action. This reduces the destabilizing effect of the rear-end under aggressive down-shifting and provides a much smoother feeling when closing the throttle or down-shifting under normal riding conditions. The completely new 2-1 exhaust system runs through 50mm headers, and is controlled by an electronic exhaust valve before passing into the new single silencer, black finished with a polished stainless steel endcap. The system uses new sound-absorbing technology to achieve such a compact layout and is completed with catalytic converter and two lambda probes for optimum Euro 3 emissions management.
A milestone 30,000km between major services The 821cc Testastretta 11° engine reaches another milestone in Ducatis constant investment in quality by enabling the distance between major service intervals (valve clearance check) to be set at an owner-friendly 30,000 kilometres (18,000 miles).
