Ducati took the 1198 S Corse Special Edition, Multistrada 1200, and Hypermotard Evo to the Motor Bike Expo held in Verona, Italy, over the weekend. While the models had already been seen at EICMA 2009, they were on display again for the joy of the lucky Italian public. The 1198 S Corse Special Edition shows off a new livery, and is characterised by an aluminium racing tank, Ducati Corse logo, racing kit and Ducati’s traction control.

The full Ducati 2010 range was on show at the Motor Bike Expo, including Ducati accessories and clothing. Despite the lovely 1198S, all eyes are on the Multistrada 1200 to see how it pulls off its mix of sport with touring and off-road. Other bikes to check out were the Hypermotard 796, the Hypermotard 1100EVO and the brand new Hypermotard 1100Evo SP.

Here’s the new 2010 Ducati Hypermotard 796 in a full gallery of official pics. Similar in looks to the 1100, the Hyper 796 has a series of new updates and modifications. It’s a completely lightweight model, weighing just 167 kg, and has a lowered seat and completely new engine.

The Hypermotard 796 new motor is a Desmodue with 81 hp and torque of 75.5 Nm. Fuel consumption is very low at only 4.8 l/km, and the bike complies with Euro 3 anti-pollution norms. The new Ducati Hypermotard is also equipped with a wet oil APTC clutch.

The Italians get to avail themselves of a Ducati scrappage scheme, meaning the new Hypermotard will cost them 1,000 euros less. Otherwise, local market prices have it at 8,990 euros (Dark tint), available from the end of October. We’ll be showing live pics from the EICMA show next month.
