I got mine a few days ago. Loving it so far!

KZread has now been rebranded 'YouChad'! I've lost count of how many Chad vids I've watched today alone 😂

Sir Chad

Great review great bike I have a deposit down but will probably keep my 701 (as I love it so much!) love super motos! ❤

Looks phenomenal and I think at that price if you are having more fun than any other bike sounds worth itn

Being 5’7” how was the seat height of 905mm for you, did the sag allow you to be on your toenails, or did you have to flamingo to one side? Thanks.

I wants it!

I love my 701 Husky sm but I'm going to have a serious look at the Ducati.....But it's going to have to be good.

701 got way more lower grunt then this 698, your 701 still gonna feel like you'll have more usable power. + it's more affordable to maintain

I would love to convert one into a Enduro/ADV bike.

Costs way too much, still bought one!

How loud is the race kit?

Headline is a poor question. Of course it’s good, it’s a current Ducati 🏁

Ducati dealer in Miami prices these out $21,600 and $20,123 respectively with termignoni installed. everything included out the door. seems excessive.

The 698 is about $10,000 more expensive than a yearly run out KTM 690 SMCR here in Aus. The glaring question for me is: Is it actually $10,000 better? Especially given if you want the wheelie assist from Ducati you have to add in the Termi Exhaust which is an almost $5,000 AUD option. That's a $30,000 bike. I'm just not seeing the value.

It’s a play toy for rich people who already have 3 bikes.

So this is not really the ktm690 engine?

That cable loop at the windscreen looks absolutely hideous, sorry :/

That's pretty much the de facto solution for any long suspension travel bike.

@@donkeizluv I'm not debating it's functional or not, just that for a design-brand like Ducati this looks hideous; it's not identical to the 950 but still the same idea/line of bike in the Ducati catalogue... the 950 looks much neater than the mono.

@@joeridestrijcker445 right. Instead of using industry proven solution for long travel forks they should do something else because of "design-brand" which probably overcomplicated and works like dog water

@@donkeizluv why are you so critical about this? I just said it looks hideous, I wasn't questioning if it's the best mechanical or functional solution; Ducati innovates all the time anyway. On some models they have the brake reservoir looking like a urine sample jar, on others they found a very nice way to cover it up and make it look like a nicely integrated part of the handlebar... I wouldn't say the reservoirs are 'bad' either, or they should find a completely different technical solution for them

Yes Hyper Mono is All Good. Price .. is a Ducati

Now, if Ducati put that motor into a sports road bike with a half fairing, or something like the Husky Vitpilen 701, they could take my money tomorrow. As it is, a super motard isn't for me, it's just too much money for a bike you can't use much.

What? A sumo can do whatever a naked does and more. First time hearing this backwards argument

the revvy engine is very at odds with the whole supermoto thing to me. You have all this displacement and instead of a torque monster like what KTM does you make this revvy single with way less torque at low rpm? Supermotos want to be shortshifted through a fat midrange, not revved to the moon. This engine would make better sense being in a low displacement racebike like the original supermono

pretty much all bikes are toys....

Unless you’re an actual motorcyclist and ride most days.

It's not.the most powerful because you can still buy a brand new Maico 700 two stroke in supermoto shoes.
