What the title says. Please delete this if it's been done before here, but I couldn't find one. I was wondering what is the most miles someone either has or has seen on a 2013+ Hyperstrada. (not sure why my + became a ! in the title)
+ to a !
.. maybe it's the same software bug that changes a dash to a division sign in the official Ducati manuals.... ;-)
I have a Dec 14 Hyper....just clocked up 23742 klms or 14752 mls.
Only real problem was the rear shock that had to be replaced at around 19000 klms. My issue is I wanted it fixed asap and it took 10 days (mainly waiting on parts).
I expect to see 30000 klms (demso service) before the bike is a full year old.
What failed about the shock?
The shock itself failed.
Coming back from a ride I began to notice a rattle in the rear end (thought I was dreaming). At home I got off the bike and put weight on the rear to see if I could find the noise...it became clear that the bike was riding on the spring and that the shock was doing nothing in compression or at release.
Dealer couldn't tell me what went wrong but clearly something inside had given way. Took 10 days for a replacement to come from Italy. All done under warranty.
Mostly pretty good then. Good to hear. What do you mean by the disco issue? I thought I had a serious issue (which I posted about on this forum), but it turns out the battery had just died. Yes, I felt pretty silly.
I've thought about trading her for the bmw f800gs or the triupmh tiger, but I don't feel like either of those bikes would provide the same "feeling" as this bike. It's great. If I weren't paranoid about reliability then there'd be no question.
I plan to keep her for now, and I've enjoyed the last two weekends of riding. I really need to post some photos!
Digging this thread back up. How are these things holding up? I am looking at buying one with 20k miles on it already and want to make sure it will last a while.
