The two valve 1100cc is a more ready engine at lower revs, but it’s hard to say to no to absolute power…

16 Jun 2009 - 21:32 - #2Dear Ducati, please make this bike. The 1100 was too much power for city riding. When I test road it, it wheelied in every gear but the thing was it would do 90 in first gear so there was no point in “shifting” - which is one of most fun aspects of riding. This is what I’m talking about, they need a smaller (CC) engine on the HyperMotard to make city riding fun. In the city, to keep things fun, they need to be scaled down a bit.
