Positioned in Ducati's super motard motorcycle lineup, the 2016 Ducati Hypermotard 939 SP relies on a 937 cc (57.2 cu in) liquid-cooled v2, four-stroke powerplant. In factory specification, peak output is rated at 113 HP (82.5 kW) at 9,500 rpm while maximum torque reaches 97.7 Nm (72.1 lb-ft) at 7,500 rpm, transferring power to the rear wheel through a 6-speed gearbox and chain final drive. With a specific output of 120.6 HP per liter and a 2,000 rpm working window between peak torque (7,500 rpm) and peak power (9,500 rpm), the engine character is reflecting a performance-oriented street tune that balances strong mid-range pull with an energetic top-end rush.
On the scales, the Hypermotard 939 SP measures 201 kg (443 lbs) wet (curb), translating to a power-to-weight ratio of 0.56 HP/kg (1.78 kg per horsepower). Rider ergonomics and chassis geometry center around a 890 mm (35 in) seat height — reflecting a long-travel chassis stance that favors ground clearance and off-pavement control, combined with a 1,498 mm (59 in) wheelbase engineered for balanced agility and highway composure. The 16-liter (4.2 US gal) fuel tank supports practical everyday commuting and weekend road stints.
