Built around Ducati's sport touring motorcycle platform, the 2016 Ducati Hyperstrada 939 pairs a 939 cc (57.3 cu in) liquid-cooled v2, four-stroke architecture with road-focused gearing. In factory specification, peak output is rated at 113 HP (82.5 kW) at 9,000 rpm while maximum torque reaches 97.9 Nm (72.2 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 120.3 HP per liter and a 1,500 rpm working window between peak torque (7,500 rpm) and peak power (9,000 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 Hyperstrada 939 measures 210 kg (463 lbs) wet (curb), translating to a power-to-weight ratio of 0.54 HP/kg (1.86 kg per horsepower). Rider ergonomics and chassis geometry center around a 810 mm (31.9 in) seat height — offering a neutral standover height that accommodates most average-inseam riders without sacrificing cornering clearance, combined with a 1,485 mm (58.5 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.
