Ducati Hypermotard 796
2010 Ducati Hypermotard 796

 

If you're a rider who cares about performance, styling, or price, you just might be interested in the sneak-peak photos of Ducati's new Hypermotard 796.

 

 Weighing in at a scant 368 lbs with a lower seat height of 32.5 inches, the L-twin grinds out 81 horsepower and 55 lb-ft of torque.  It's also equipped with a slipper clutch, making downshifts easier and safer.

 

 For those worried about color coordination with their Ducati jacket, the Hypermotard 796 comes in matte black, white tank with contrasting black body and wheels, and a 1100 look-alike in classic  Ducati red.

 

 The new bike is scheduled to hit dealerships in November with a price tag under $10,000.
