The SuperSport 950 is powered by the 937 cc Ducati Testastretta 11° twin-cylinder engine. The interventions on the exhaust system and the engine control system have not changed its character and the maximum power and torque values, which are confirmed
respectively as 110 hp at 9,000 rpm and 93 Nm at 6,500 rpm. The engine
breathes thanks to throttle bodies with a diameter of 53 mm controlled by a full
Ride-by-Wire system. It has four valves per cylinder, secondary air system, liquid
cooling, compression ratio of 12.6:1, bore and stroke measurements of 94 and
67.5 mm, respectively.
The DRL has a refined construction with an opal that diffuses the light evenly. The headlamp is completed by two twin-function LED modules for low beam and high beam that allow the bike to have a symmetrical “look” with the lights on that recalls the sharp light signature of the Panigale V4.
The windshield islow to create a streamlined and dynamic line, is centrally connected to the tank bringing the body colour into the cockpit, with a modern design that houses the new full-TFT colour dashboard. Aerodynamic protection is guaranteed by a sporty cut Plexiglas, height adjustable in two positions.
The single seat for rider and passenger with the two portions delimited by contrasting stitching has been revised to increase seating comfort, and this modification is marked by a sporty covering.
The side silencer is compact, with two overlapping outlets, and its shape and low position enhance the dynamism of the tail, leaving the “Y” design of the spokes on the rear rim completely exposed, embellished as the front one.
