Our take on this /// Verdict
The Ducati SuperSport 950 S is a masterpiece that seamlessly blends performance, comfort, and everyday usability. This bike is a joy to ride, whether youre navigating through city traffic or carving through twisty roads. The 937 cc L-twin Testastretta engine, though slightly detuned for emission norms, still delivers impressive power and torque, making it feel potent yet manageable. The addition of a 6-axis IMU has significantly enhanced the rider aids, including multi-stage traction control, cornering ABS, and wheelie control, making the bike more forgiving and stable. The ergonomics are sporty yet relaxed, and the Ohlins suspension provides a perfect balance between ride comfort and handling. While it may not be the cheapest option in its segment, the overall build quality, fit-and-finish, and the sheer riding experience make it a compelling choice for those who value both performance and practicality.

Latest Updates
Tuesday, 12 November 2024 03:43 PM The 2024 Ducati SuperSport 950 S has begun its series production at the Ducati factory in Borgo Panigale, with the bike set to be available in all dealerships starting in February. This new model features a redesigned aesthetic, closely resembling the Panigale V4, with a full-LED headlamp and new fairings that enhance its sportiness. The bike also comes with advanced electronics, including ABS Cornering, traction control, and Riding Modes. I believe this update will make the SuperSport 950 S a compelling choice for both seasoned and new riders.
Friday, 05 July 2024 01:31 PM Ducati has revamped the SuperSport 950 S with significant design updates, including new fairings and a full-LED headlamp that mirrors the Panigale V4s sharp light signature. The bike now boasts a more sporty and dynamic appearance, along with improved aerodynamic protection from its adjustable windshield. The S version also features fully adjustable Öhlins suspension, enhancing its cornering precision. I think these changes will make the SuperSport 950 S a standout in its class for both style and performance.
Thursday, 08 July 2021 11:19 PM The SuperSport 950 S is equipped with a 937 cc Ducati Testastretta 11° twin-cylinder engine, which is Euro 5 compliant, producing 110 hp at 9,000 rpm and 93 Nm of torque at 6,500 rpm. The bike also features a 6-speed gearbox with Ducati Quick Shift (DQS) up/down, making it versatile for various riding conditions. Additionally, the bike includes modern dynamics control electronics based on Bosch’s 6-axis inertial platform. I believe this combination of power and technology makes the SuperSport 950 S an excellent choice for daily riding and occasional track use.
Thursday, 08 July 2021 01:19 PM Ducati has introduced a depowered version of the SuperSport 950 for A2 license holders, offering a more accessible entry point into the world of Ducati sports bikes. This version maintains the same design and features as the standard model but with reduced power. In some regions, Ducati is offering incentives such as a discount of € 1,000 on the list price for young enthusiasts. I think this move will help attract more new riders to the Ducati family.
Thursday, 08 July 2021 11:12 AM The SuperSport 950 S has seen improvements in comfort and ergonomics, with a new seat design featuring better padding and a flatter shape, allowing for greater freedom of movement and better control for the rider. The handlebar height and footrest positioning have also been optimized to reduce strain during long rides. I believe these ergonomic updates will make the bike more appealing to riders who value both sportiness and comfort.
Mileage
Monday, 18 November 2024 05:07 PM When it comes to mileage, the Ducati SuperSport 950 S is not designed to be a fuel-sipper, given its high-performance nature. In real-world conditions in India, you can expect an average fuel efficiency of around 15-20 kml, depending on how aggressively you ride. City riding, especially in heavy traffic, will likely yield lower figures, while highway cruising can see slightly better numbers. However, the bikes fuel tank capacity of 16 liters ensures that you have a decent range before needing to refuel. While mileage might not be its strongest suit, the SuperSport 950 S is clearly aimed at those who prioritize performance and riding experience over fuel efficiency.

Ex Showroom Price vs On Road Price Ex-Showroom Price is the Manufacturing Cost of the vehicle + Dealer/Seller Profit + GST (Goods and Service Tax) + Transportation Charges (from the manufacturing plant to the dealership). On the other hand, the On-Road Price is the actual cost you pay to the dealership to make the vehicle legal to run on the roads. It includes Ex-Showroom Price in your city + RTO Charges (Vehicle Registration) + One Time Road Tax + Insurance Charges. The On-Road Price also includes some optional things like if you opt for Genuine Accessories and Extended Warranty while buying a vehicle. Please note that the On-Road Price varies a lot across different states in India due to different percentage for the State Registration Charges.
