The new Hypermotard 950 RVE rides the wave of success that the Hypermotard 950 Concept achieved in 2019, presented at the Concours d’Elegance Villa d’Este.

The new version recaptures that very livery, in fact, conceived and developed by theDucati Style Center it emphasizes the lightness and aggression of the bike with a high-impact graphics layout, inspired by urban graffiti and created with the same care as the concept from which it derives.

DESIGN

Motard style

The Hypermotard perfectly combines such distinctive features of the original Hypermotard 1100 as minimalism, aggressiveness, lightweight look and a “fun-bike” image with the innovation and technology of Ducati’s latest-generation models. The “Graffiti” color scheme of the new 950 RVE emphasizes the sleek styling concepts complimented by the unique high-impact graphics layout, inspired by contemporary urban graffiti.

COOL COLORS

Graffiti livery

For the first time across such an extensive, complex surface, Ducati has utilized ultra-thin waterslide decals during the painting phase. As this application process is particularly lengthy and complicated, it calls for highly specialized skills. The end result is comparable to that of airbrushed bodywork, of extremely high-quality, imperceptible to the touch and long-lasting.

ERGONOMICS

Control all the degrees

For the utmost riding fun and control the Hypermotard 950 is equipped with an open handlebar, narrow side profile, a seat with an extended profile and a moderate bulge in the passenger area for improved comfort. For the 950 RVE and 950 SP versions the seat is flat, in line with the pro-motard style, to facilitate shifting forward and backward on the seat while riding. The 950 RVE seat has a special covering with a dedicated “tone on tone” Ducati logo.
