DUCATIHypermotard 1100 EVO SP 2012 - 2013

　　In 2012, the Italian motorcycle manufacturer launched the Ducati Hypermotard 1100 EVO SP, a naked machine that debuted in 2010 as a replacement for the 1100S. Also, in 2010, the 1100 standard model was replaced by the 1100 EVO standard model.

　　Compared to the 2009 1100S model, the 1100 EVO SP version featured several modifications, such as a redesigned engine with a Siemens fuel injection system and a higher compression that increased the power from 90 hp to 95 hp at a lower engine speed.

　　Both EVO models were lighter than before due to the vacuum-cast engine casings, lighter crankshaft, alternator, and flywheel. In addition, the rear subframe was redesigned, and both models came with several carbon fiber elements.

　　It was only one kg (2.2 lbs) weight difference between the two EVOs, the standard EVO weighing only 172 kg (379 lbs) and the EVO SP weighing only 171 kg (377 lbs). The cast alloy wheels mounted on the EVO SP model made the one kg difference.

　　The 2012 Ducati Hypermotard 1100 EVO SP was similar to the previous models, packing the same engine, suspension, brakes, and visual look.

　　In the power department, the motorcycle had its soul brought to life by a 1,078cc four-stroke air-cooled V-twin engine with a fuel injection system in charge, boasting 95 hp with a peak at 7,500 rpm and 103 Nm (76 lb-ft) torque at 4,750 rpm.
