    Back in the saddle...

    Hi all, After a too many year hiatus from street riding, I decided to start looking around this year again. Parenting duties fulfilled, too early to retire, needed some extra exhilaration in my life. Boy did I find it this week! Today I picked up a 2014 'strada with only 1830 miles on it...

    Looks like I am coming back to a Duc

    Greetings all and thanks for allowing me to join the forum. I will be picking up my 2013 HS this week and have been reading everything here to make sure I know what to look for. My last Ducati was a 2011 M796, and I sold it about 2 yrs ago to get a BMW R1100S. Love the Bimmer, but I am...

    Colorado Back Country Discovery Route

    A wise man has said that the Ducati Panigale is fine representation of and Italian Supermodel. If that is true then the Ducati Hyperstrada is the tomboy half sister of an Italian Supermodel! A fun easy free-spirited lady game for anything..... We set out to accomplish the CoBDR last...

    Call back on HS in Belgium (Europe? RotW?)

    While having my fair bit of troubles on the bike (2 weeks in the garage, still haven't found the problem) (see: http://hyperstrada.com/mechanical-technical/2174-bike-decided-stop-working-autobahn.html), my dealer said I would receive a call back letter from Ducati telling the throttle...

    Getting back on a superbike

    So I pulled my Fireblade (that's a CBR1000RR for you folks in the US) out of winter hibernation yesterday and took it for it's first proper outing since buying the 'strada in January and riding it (almost) every day since. I suspect a few of you guys will appreaciate this, but man, what a...

    Back on a Duc

    Hola! Just picked up a leftover 13 "Strada. Lovin it so far (170mi). Feels good to be back on a duc. I'm a riding instructor from MA. I taught MSF for 14 years and I've been an instructor with Tonystrackdays.com for about 15 years. Oh, yeah, I've done a fair bit of roadracing with some...

    rust dust all over the back of the bike

    OK, this is weird. The other day I noticed that there was a red oxide (rusty looking) dust on the drivetrain. All around the area of the front sprocket, all over the center stand, on the chain, all over the swingarm, and the rear rim and tire. I didn't ride in heavy rain. My chain was...

    muddy wet back!

    Hi, I'm loving my new Hyperstrada, but has anyone else found that every time you ride on wet roads (which you get a lot of here) your back gets completely covered in water and mud!:( Design issue me thinks. Can you get a larger hugger? I've made a mud flap to fit below the number plate but...

    Back Rest

    I picked up my HS last Saturday - exactly the bike I have been looking for! Looking for a back rest but didn't want to jump into the top case. Has anyone tried this one? Ducati Hyperstrada Backrest

    Back in the saddle

    I am a new member that took delivery of my beautiful HS a few days ago. Last bike was a 750SS that I sold 13 years ago to purchase my wife's engagement ring. Great to be riding a Ducati again!
