    What'd you do to your Hyperstrada today?

    Thank you, sir. So the puig is around 2 inches or 50 mm taller and about the same width as the stock screen? I was working on making a screen using vacuum molding. I ended up hacking an old BMW 1100 screen. I'll try to post some pics later.

    Any chance you have time to post a picture holding the stock windscreen up against your puig to show difference in size/shape?

    Engine oil missing and oil in exhaust smell

    Just to be sure I'm understanding you. You say a Ducati dealership told you your oem bike chain, the bike chain that is on the Hyperstrada when bought brand new, is not made to be ridden outside?

    What'd you do to your Hyperstrada today?

    Frank, what are those clip things on the lower front section of the exhaust pipe, where did you get them?

    Trading Hyperstrada for Multistrada

    821 Monster. 696 doesn't have enough power and 1200 probably has too much. I had a 696, wrecked it, and miss it.

    Windscreen extension

    My concern is 90+ mph on flat, open highways. Will the plastic windscreen mount handle cross winds? It might need handlbar mounts I'd prefer not to use. This past weekend I rode St. Louis to Minneapolis and back through House on the Rock WI and the wind was rough. Of course back roads are...

    Any way to make the exhaust louder?

    What car do you have that's louder than a hyper? Though I don't see a need for louder I do understand the need to make the bike something it's not. I'm going for more trail worthy mods myself. The sport bikes run at higher rpm than the 821 engine the strada has and they are likely to...

    Windscreen extension

    I am working on a larger windscreen. Plan is to have it mount on the stock windscreen mount. Also will have spacers to push it forward if needed to make it even taller though less aerodynamic. A 3d CAD model is used in CFD analysis to optimize the shape and to check for forces on the stock...

    Any way to make the exhaust louder?

    If you cut it off I guarantee it will be much louder. Couldn't resist saying that. Seriously though, if you do something to change the flow output of the exhaust, the ECU may need to be tuned. It may not, just saying. Do you like the look of the stock exhaust and intend to find a way...

    Sissy Bar option for HyperStrada?

    Lol! I agree the image is a bit. .. different. Hey I'm willing to challenge the norm. I think what giogolf wants is the flip up seat backrest. I've seen them on BMW touring bikes.

    Trouble with Panniers

    Did anybody read a review in some magazine comparing hyperstrada to a similar style KTM? It championed the KTM how great it was. Said though KTM's panniers are smaller and don't lock to the bike, the ducati's are difficult to remove. Only one of mine was difficult. Easy fix. Now both slip off...

    Sissy Bar option for HyperStrada?

    giogolf, How much are you willing to spend? I would be willing to make one for you out of tube steel or aluminum. I could powder coat it for you to match the grey on the bike or it could be black, chrome, or whatever color. I could make it to mount to the rack mounting holes. How tall are...

    Don't get mad at me.

    Braaap, why did they replace all of those parts you listed, did you post reasons already on here somewhere? Really your front rotors and front and rear brake pads were faulty? Have you written a letter directly to Ducati in Italy? I would try that. They send letters to us welcoming us to...

    Tips on winter storage

    Flat spots on tires is supposed to be a common problem that using the center stand should prevent. Or if no center stand use a rear wheel stand. . . and a front wheel stand. or hang your bike from the vaulted ceiling in your living room. If you do that, please post some pics because...

    Trouble with Panniers

    One pannier slipped off very easy. The other I had to pull with a lot of force and it seemed to get worse on my road trip to Big Bend, Tx in mid July. I tugged really, really hard one time and it must have bent the lock because now it slips off as easy as the other. So I think the problem...

    battery voltage

    My mistake. A trickle charger is not the same as a float charger. Trickle charger should not be used. It will overcharge the battery if left on too long. A float charger is not a trickle charger. It should have intelligence to know when the battery is full to prevent overcharging the...
