    11,000 miles

    After reaching 11k miles in my HS in less tan two years, I can only say it,s the best motorcycle I,ve had. Great for riding in the curves, not heavy, comfortable in long trips (up to 500 miles in one day) and I,m 60 years old. Easy in the city and great look. So far only one two services...

    Mushy front brake and no ABS after 3k miles

    Did some cursory searching but didn't find much beyond the usual complaints about brake feel. Woke up yesterday to a slightly mushier front. At the same settings the lever would hit my middle finger under hard braking (still stops fine) whereas it didn't before. Being the nervous person I am...

    New Chain and front sprocket at 10,000 miles

    Getting tires and other maintenance items done and the dealer is suggesting a new chain and front sprocket. Oh what the heck, it's $250 and I won't have to deal with the matter again for another 10,000 miles. Fine with me. For all the complaints regarding the BMW GS driveshafts, they are a lot...

    10,000 Miles with Hyperstrada

    Now that I have ridden my 2013 Hyperstrada (purchased new in 2015) for 10,000 miles, I have formed some opinions. 1) Very reliable bike. I don't carry tools. Despite how the bike is abused on potholed and broken backroads the bike holds together well, never a loose bolt or nut. 2)...

    Just scored a sweet deal on a 2014 Hyperstrada (first Ducati) with 6000 miles BUT....

    The test ride was great, love that sport mode! But now the clutch is acting like a Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hide. Starting off can be as smooth as silk and other times is just GRABS at the last second. You better be pointed in the right direction! Scary. I have the lever set where the manual...

    Good morning! I've had my Hyperstrada for a couple of weeks now & have done around 1000 miles. I've still only got 7000 revs to play with, but OMG...This is the most fun, engaging and exhilarating bike I've owned. Just love it! I now wish I'd bought the SP and fitted the 'strada components...

    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)

    45000 kilometres (28000 miles) anniversary

    Well this is it. My ride is in for it's 45000 kilometres (28000 miles) maintenance check a month before it's second anniversary. So I guess it's pretty good for a first bike. Tons of fun, plenty of goofs and learned a lot. Now I wonder who much devaluation this mean on the bike. I don't...

    Engine noise changed, 588 miles in.

    OK, so it's due it's first service tomorrow anyway but I just about got home any noticed a distinct change in the engine noise. Coming from the front is an additional muffled sound that is very audible over the exhaust on tick over. It's not been there before. Anyone else notice this?

    How many miles do you ride a year?

    I'm embarrassed to say I only average 1,000 miles a year it would seem. I've had my Hyperstrada a year now and have only put 1,000 miles on the odometer. :( I really love it, but I guess I just love driving my convertible more (don't have to put on all the gear and much safer). How many miles...

    Brake rotors pulsating after 2k miles

    I recently picked up a like new used HS from a reputable dealer. The balance of the factory warranty remains until March 2016. I have about 200 miles on the bike and today noticed the front brakes pulsating at slow speeds when I come to a stop. Its bad enough that the forks dive up and down...

    In about three days, I'm taking my Hyperstrada from the Pacific coast(ish) at Tacoma, Washington to a family reunion on the Atlantic coast(ish) near Frankfurt, New Hampshire. And then I'm retracing my steps back a week later to go home. In total, it'll be nearly 7,000 miles (11,250km) of...
