Ducati Hypermotard 698 Mono Now Available with Performance Accessories
Ducati launched its first single-cylinder motorcycle – the Hypermotard 698 Mono – in July 2024 in India. The 698 Mono comes in two variants (Standard and RVE), with a new Superquadro Mono engine and a 6-speed gearbox. The engine on offer is a 659cc, liquid-cooled, short-stroke, single-cylinder unit based on the 1,285cc Superquadro. Touted to be the most ‘high-performance road-going single-cylinder engine ever’, the Superquadro Mono makes 76bhp at 9,750rpm and 63Nm of peak torque at 8,000rpm. With a Termignoni exhaust system (for track use only), these numbers rise to 83.3bhp and 67Nm. The Ducati Hypermotard 698 Mono comes well-equipped with features from the plant; however, buyers can customise their vehicles to their tastes with a wide range of accessories that Ducati offers with the motorcycle. With the Sport package meant to enhance the bike’s visual appeal and functionality, you get an aluminium license plate holder, dynamic LED direction indicators, and Termignoni silencers with black steel sleeves and satin-finish end caps. Customers can also pick individual accessories for their motorcycles.
