Refresh 2024: New “Stripe Livery” for the SuperSport 950 S
This year, the SuperSport 950 S color palette gets an addition with the new “Stripe Livery”, which complements the classic Ducati red. The new color scheme on the fairing emphasizes the dynamic appearance of the SuperSport. On the front fender and side air intakes, two new dark gray and red stripes are designed to catch all eyes and harmonize with the radiant “Iceberg White” base color. In addition, the model branding has been adapted to the new color scheme.
Equipment for maximum driving pleasure
The SuperSport’s design shares many similarities with the Panigale V4, from the luminous signature of the full LED headlight with daytime running lights to the side vents.
The sporty side of the SuperSport 950 S is also evident in its features. It features a lightweight aluminum single-sided swingarm and an engine-mounted trellis frame with high torsional rigidity. The Testastretta 11° twin-cylinder engine, known for its smooth power delivery, is at the heart of the SuperSport. It meets Euro 5 standards and delivers power and torque figures of 110 hp (108.77 hp, 81 kW) at 9,000 rpm and 93 Nm at 6,500 rpm, respectively. In addition, the SuperSport 950 S is also available in a 35-kW version, making it an ideal choice for A2 driver’s license holders.
