Where did your friend hear about it?

I can't imagine they'd bring out an even lower powered version of the Hypermotard... unless it was about 75 pounds lighter.

Maybe I explained myself wrong, maybe it is not a smaller engine version of the HM, just a new 800cc supermoto style Ducati.... that will probably look like the HM..

I can't imagine that being true but anything is possible these days.

Ducati Vyper?




(edit: Most recent Google search shows 1400CC, nevermind)

The Vyper has apparently been abandoned...

Hi guys, Hypermotard 800cc will be show us probably during next EICMA ( International Motorbike expo in Milan).
New 800cc probably is very similar to the 1100, of course with cheap suspensions, brakes, wheels, and smaller engine.

pratically the same differents from Monster 1100 to Monster 696

Here in Japan, the licensing system is tired by cc.

The beginner bikes are 400cc or less and then anything over I believe is considered a big bikes.

I don't know if the 800cc would have a large market in the US, but would be ideal here in Japan for the commuter/weekend rider.
