2010 Ducati Hypermotard 796 Announced

2010 Ducati Hypermotard  796
2010 Ducati Hypermotard 796
Ducati has announced the 2010 Hypermotard 796. The Hypermotard 796 incorporates features requested by Ducatisti including new colors, lighter weight, lower seat height, lower MSRP and super-light action APTC wet clutch. Updated frame and triple clamps and improved frame design have eliminated almost all the forged pieces contributing to a 27lb reduction in weight from the Hypermotard 1100.

Key Features

  • New 796cc engine
  • 81hp and 55.7 lb-ft of torque
  • 32.5in seat height, .8in less than 1100
  • Updated frame and redesigned triple-clamps
  • Super-light action APTC wet clutch
The 2010 Ducati 796 will be available at authorized Ducati dealerships in December 2009. The 796 will be available in Dark finish with a matte black tank and beak section and black wheels or, matte white with a matte black beak will also be available. Purists may prefer the 1100 look-alike red tank, beak and frame with black wheels color scheme. Priced at $9,995 the Hypermotard 796 is a bargain for a hand built Italian motorcycle.
