Hypermotard 1100 A wide, tapered section handlebars transfer control of the tarmac to the rider and a full length seat design enables easy fore and aft movement – slide up front when entering the turns and then slide back for maximum traction on exit.
A rigidly triangulated Trellis frame and track-tested chassis geometry is matched with state-of-the-art suspension. Start off with the road-holding abilities of huge 50mm Marzocchi forks, gripped by a triple screw lower fork crown, then add a fully adjustable Sachs shock mounted to a stout single-sided swingarm. Light Marchesini wheels combine with twin radially mounted Brembo four piston callipers, gripping new lightweight 305mm twin discs up front, and a 245mm disc at the rear to add control to the thrilling package.
The new 1100 Desmo engine pumps out potent torque and horsepower that is smooth and linear. The lightweight, powerful engine is the result of more than three decades of Desmo two-valve development. In keeping with its aggressive image, the Hypermotard engine sports a racing-style dry clutch.
Hypermotard 1100 S The ‘S’ uses a Marzocchi 50mm forks with trick, low friction, Titanium Nitride (TiN) coating on the sliders and a race-spec Öhlins fully adjustable shock at the rear. A Brembo Monobloc calipers and lightweight machine finished forged-aluminium wheels complete the chassis set-up, while carbon fibre fork protectors, timing belt covers and fenders front and rear show-off its ‘S’ status.

hypermotard (18-11-2006): 11.5 litre fuel tank must be a joke. You would be looking for a petrol station every 80 miles and always be worrying about running out if you are out for a long trip.
