Never So Hyper

New Hypermotard V2

Never So Hyper.

Lighter, sharper, more sophisticated, and more powerful than ever before: the new Hypermotard redefines the concept of adrenaline on two wheels, 20 years on from the first prototype. With its V2 twin, this bike embodies the essence of extreme riding, combining benchmark performance with an aggressive design and cutting-edge technology.

Timeless style details.

The DNA of the new Hypermotard is rooted in the very first prototype presented at EICMA 2005 and named “Best in Show”. Distinctive elements are inherited from that icon to ensure character, not least the front headlight with unmistakable “beak”, the tank cover with double wing, the dual exhaust under the tail that leaves the trellis frame exposed, and the floating rear light. Clean and aggressive lines that continue to excite and enthral today.

Hypermotard essence.

Twenty years after the presentation of the first prototype, the Hypermotard benefits from a full update inspired by the rebellious spirit of the Hypermotard 1100. A motard design that marries aggression and precision, emotion and control.

Discover the new Hypermotard V2, the fourth generation of the 1100 prototype that took the “Best in Show” prize at EICMA 2005. The lightest, most compact and thrilling bike in the range.
