Great video! Don’t be intimidated by some of the taller Ducatis if you are shorter like me(5’6”). I bought a 14’ Hypermotard SP from Marty years ago and it was a blast commuting on it everyday.

@@jua_hypetems1316 I have a 30 inch inseam and the Hyper SP is pretty comfortable for me. 1 cheek off I can have 1 foot flat. Getting both toes down is fine

5'6 here with a Streetfighter V4 SP and Multi V4 Pikes Peak. Tiptoes all the way but no problems whatsoever. Careful with the Multi though it's a bit weighty.

I’m 5-6” and grew up riding motocross bikes. The Hypermotard is what I have my eyes on. It’s shorter than my dirt bikes and I don’t think I have ever ridden anything that I could touch both feet to the ground. Looks rowdy

8:07 on the multistrada I think you said "left foot down, not supposed to, gear side." Actually, what you did is correct in most cases, left foot down and right foot on rear brake and in 1st gear.

Man you are my inspiration as short rider department! I love the Hypermotard 950 but this life is not for me, but I already bought Hyperstrada 939 2016 and, man I am so excited to ride anywhere anytime

I got the lower seat on my 22 Hyper and makes such a massive difference for confidence 👍🏻👍🏻

Been trying to find a good tail tidy for it. What do you recommend?

I have a 2022 Hyper SP and and a 29in inseam. Of course I ordered the factory Lo seat which is a little better. But still way too tall. So what I did was I took the factory seat and modified it just like I've had to do with every tall motorcycle I've ever owned. Right now I'm sitting on one cm of jell straight off the seat pan this may sound uncomfortable but it actually isn't now I wouldn't want to do any 300-mile trips on it though. What you got to do is take some Gorilla Glue spray adhesive glue the factory foam down to the seat pan and then you take a bread knife and carve it all the way down to the pan you have to do this because the Ducati factory seat pan is not flat like most motorcycles. Got A large piece of gel off of eBay and laid it in the cut out area trimmed everything to fit. So now with just one centimeter of gel I can get my one foot down pretty well on the pavement not so much of a balancing act anymore when I come to a stop. This modified seat is about one and a half inch lower than the factory Lo seat. Which is about as good as it gets.

Great video. Thank you for doing this. It’s extremely helpful for us short folks. 👍🏾 I sat on a Desert X this weekend and was completely surprised I could one foot it with the other on the peg at 5’6” with a 29” inseam. It felt a lot lighter than I thought it would be too.

Best video of the channel yet.

The standard seat on the hyper only doesnt have a lot of padding because of the plastic shaping inside of it. The lowered seat has a different shaped plastic molding and has just as much cushion, if not slightly more

This is awesome guys. I was about to call and ask Marty's height as I am part of the vertically challenged crew. Want a second scrambler but this time a Desert Sled...Desert X is sick but way too big for me. Hello from 🇨🇦

just a great video. its like youre reading everyones mind in content we need. especially these days when a lot of dealerships (especially in korea) dont have a lot of display models due to the problems in the global supply chain. cant say enough as im binging all your videos. cheers

Hi guys, what a great idea for a video. You are so right about not being able to check riding ground clearance on a complete range, Ducati or otherwise. I am still waiting for my V2S after waiting 6 months and have been concerned about the standard 32” seat, since I have been riding a Multi for 8 years with the 33” seat. Checked with the dealer and they recommended I go with the taller seat, but they never suggested that when I ordered. I am 6’3” so was worried that when the bike arrived (God knows when!) my riding position would not be optimal. Your video has pretty much confirmed my concerns. I note your comments about the current delivery situation. It is the same here in Western Australia where Ducati can’t even give me an accurate delivery!

Wish these companies make them all low seat with a high seat option. Some of these bikes have no more room for low seat but you can alway add height.

OMG thanks. Im currently on Tracer 9GT but I think I'll go multistrada v4s next year. I was riding streetfigther v2 of mine friend for few weeks. I'm 175cm tall and it was looking exactly how you look on streetfighter. Now I'm 100% sure multistrada will be ok in case of my height :)

This was very helpful for a vertically challenged man like me. Thanks for putting this video out!!

I have an M1200R and a MTS1260PP both tall bikes. I also have a 30" inseam with no issues. In fact, I set the Multi's seat to it's highest as it provides more legroom comfort. Taller bikes should not intimidate anyone with a short inseam as you have a riding comfort advantage.

Thanks for the info finally not intimidated by the seat height but can't afford it anyways

Good video. I would of liked to see a side profile of all the bikes

Thanks for this. Very helpful in setting expectations across the models.

From my experience, it's not just about the seat height, but also how wide the seat is. A few years ago, I was on the market for either the Ducati Hypermotard 950, or the Aprilia Dorsoduro 900. Despite the Hypermotard 950 being lower than the Dorsoduro 900 by the specs, I can't tippy toe both sides of the Hyper, but I can on the Dorso so I chose the Dorso 900 in the end, and never looked back.

Really informative video; thanks from here in Scotland.

Thank you very much for this video, just a question, where could be located de v2s in this line ? Higher or lower than the v4 ? Thank you. Just added another question, I thought that the multistrada lowers the preload more when it is stopped (or going slowly) and running? Or is it at the minimum when stopped ? Thanks again.

The eternal size issue. I'm 6.2 and got so frustrated that my different Ducs all looked so tiny with me on it 🙄 qexcept fot Ktm 1260 and co, bikes that are not dissapearing under you are as rare as non intimidating bikes for shorter riders.

Re: Multistrada V4S, what would the overall seat height be with both the low seat and the factory low suspension option installed?

Thanks for this. Really helpful. Going from the Multi 1260s to the Panigale v4s -what is the rider triangle like on the v4s? Distance between peg and seat? I am also vertically challenged 5’7” - no problem riding the older Multi. & no problem on the short test ride of the v4s. Just wondering what you think?

Thank you

Hey sir what is the brand of your hiking boots?
