Motorcycle Daily has posted a smoking review of the new Hypermotard 1100 & 1100S. By all accounts it sounds like a hell of a bike…

My expectations were sky high for the Hypermotard. It’s a bike close to my heart in concept and Ducati did such a great job on the design (just put a Ducati Hypermotard next to a KTM 950 SM and you’ll soon see where all the dribble goes…) So even though it’s not perfect at slow speed city handling, has got a heavy throttle and road suspension, I forgive it completely! Hypermotard has got more street credibility than Ducati’s own Monster. Better slow down the Monster line in Bologna to make way for more Hypers! I love it and yes, I would buy one tomorrow!
