DUCATI HYPERMOTARD 698 2025

The latest Ducati engine is already first in its class. Derived from the 1285 cc Superquadro engine of the 1299 Panigale, the Superquadro Mono flaunts Ducati racing DNA in just one cylinder. It inherits both its racing character and desmodromic system from the Superquadro, which allows it to rev higher than any other and fully express itself, for truly exciting performance.

The frame is a steel tube trellis with different thicknesses and cross-sections. At the rear is a cast aluminium double-sided swingarm weighing just 3.9 kilograms, which maximizes stiffness and minimizes weight. Its 572 mm length allows the wheelbase to be limited to 1443 mm, to the benefit of handling. At the front is the lightweight and fully adjustable Marzocchi upside-down fork with 45 mm aluminium stanchions, weighing in at just 8.1 kg. The Sachs rear shock absorber is off-road-inspired and coupled with a progressive link.

The look of the new Hypermotard 698 Mono retraces the distinctive traits of a race-ready supermotard. Clean lines, compact forms, and aggressive style. The bold yet refined look is traced by the high seat, the simple, straight double-sided swingarm, and the slender tail section. The fender is high and expansive, while the rear fairings wrap around the exhaust, leaving room for the number plate holder.
