The 2.0 PS is the gain measured at 6,800 rpm, not an increase in maximum output.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWe say that rather than quote the larger number on its own. What this pipe does is lift the curve in the middle; it does not make the Hypermotard a more powerful motorcycle on paper.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eWhat a Supermoto Wants\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA Hypermotard is ridden on the throttle between tight corners, upright and often on the front wheel's edge of adhesion. Response below five thousand revs is worth more there than anything happening near the limiter.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e3 Nm at 3,900 rpm is exactly that kind of gain — small in absolute terms and directly under the rider's right hand.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eNo Catalytic Converter\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAkrapovic describes this simply as a link pipe made in titanium without a catalytic converter. That is where the 2.4 kg and the mid-range come from, and it is also why there is no road approval.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eHypermotard or Hyperstrada\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDucati built the Hyperstrada as a touring version of the same bike, with a screen, luggage mounts and a longer seat. Mechanically the exhaust route is unchanged, so one pipe covers both, and both the 821 and the later 939 engine.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eA Used Motorcycle Now\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe 821 and 939 Hypermotards ran until 2018 and were replaced by the 950. Machines from this range are used bikes today, often second or third owner, which makes a track-only part an easier decision than it would be on something under warranty.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eThirty Minutes\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Hypermotard's mid-section is short and accessible, and there is almost no bodywork in the way. Half an hour is a fair estimate.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eTitanium on a Cheap Part\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis is the least expensive item in this batch and it is still made of titanium. On a short pipe the material cost is small, and the 2.4 kg saved is the same weight a set of forged wheels would remove for twenty times the money.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eFitment and Compatibility\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eL-D8SO2 covers the Ducati Hypermotard 821 and 939 and the Hyperstrada from 2013 through 2018.
