No doubts about this one. Ducati have got it just right. Just a shame I can't afford one.

Designed by Pierre Terreblanche no less, and some doubt his abilities as a designer

Its a great and very tempting bike...but!!!

Its hardly rocket science is it, turning the Multistrada into a Supermoto.

Have a look at Ktm`s superduke and supermoto 950

You`ll get the idea.

I agree with Van, it does have traits of a Numptystrudle, particularly the fuel tank area.
I also see his point regarding KTM's.

Would I buy a Hypermotard?........... Yes, I like it very much. I prefer it to the MTS.
