Riding Mode
Rider can choose, among the three different pre-set
configurations (Riding Modes), the one that better
suits his/her riding style or path characteristics. Riding
Modes allow an immediate change of engine power
and output (ENGINE), braking control levels (ABS) and
traction control (DTC) intervention levels.
The available configurations are:
Sport, Touring and Urban (for Hypermotard and
Hyperstrada);
Race, Sport and Wet (for Hypermotard SP).
Within every Riding Mode, the rider can customise
any settings.
Ducati Traction Control (DTC)
The Ducati Traction Control system (DTC) supervises
the rear wheel slipping control and settings vary
through eight different levels that are programmed to
offer a different tolerance level to rear wheel slipping.
Each Riding Mode features a pre-set intervention
level. Level eight indicates system intervention
whenever a slight slipping is detected, while level one
is for very expert riders because it is less sensitive to
slipping and intervention is hence more rare.
Anti-lock Braking System (ABS)
Hypermotard ABS is an integral braking system with
rear wheel lift-up control, ensuring both a shorter
stopping distance and a higher braking stability. ABS
offers three different intervention levels, one for each
Riding Mode.
