The Ducati Supersport 950 S has been unveiled with the road sports bike getting a new colour scheme.
Adding an exciting twist to its sleek design, the Ducati Supersport 950 S mid-range sports bike now feature a new “Stripe Livery” fairing and glossy black wheels with a Ducati red tag in the update.
The Stripe Livery has an angular Ducati Red stripe with a thicker grey stripe runnning in parallel below the red sttipe, placed along the sides of the front mudguard, extending rearward on the fairing, running along the air-vents, culminating in perfect harmony with the red trellis frame. This dynamic combination enhances the allure of the “Iceberg White” fairing.
The design aesthetics of this bike have reference of Panigale V4. The full-LED headlamp equipped with daytime lights recalls the sharp light signature, and the new side air-vents are reminiscent of the double extractors on the Panigale V4. The lower fairing extends to the dual exhaust cans on the side, hiding the mechanical components, and giving the bike the sporty elegance of track bikes.
The Ducati SuperSport 950 S is powered by the 937-cc Ducati Testastretta 11° twin-cylinder engine delivering maximum power of 110 hp at 9,000 rpm and 93 Nm torque at 6,500 rpm. This bike comes with a six-speed gearbox with an up- and down quickshifter and a slipper clutch. It also gets fully-adjustable Öhlins suspension at the front and rear, a lightweight single-sided aluminium swingarm, and a trellis frame fixed to the engine.
The Ducati SuperSport 950 S is safe and comfortable to ride with modern and refined Ducati technology. The electronic package of the SuperSport 950 S includes Bosch Cornering ABS, Ducati Traction Control, Ducati Wheelie Control, three Riding Modes (Sport, Touring and Urban), in addition to the 4.3-inch full-TFT display and the Ducati Multimedia System.
The standard Supersport 950 is available in the classic Ducati Red livery.
