Testastretta 11° L-Twin Performance

At the heart of the 2023 Ducati SuperSport 950 S is Ducati's 937cc Testastretta 11° L-twin engine, a liquid-cooled powerplant designed to deliver strong, accessible performance throughout the rev range.

Producing approximately 110 horsepower and 69 lb-ft of torque, the engine provides responsive acceleration for highway passing, spirited backroad riding, and everyday travel.

The Testastretta 11° configuration emphasizes usable torque and smooth power delivery, giving the SuperSport a flexible character that works well beyond racetrack environments.

Electronic fuel injection and ride-by-wire throttle control provide precise response, while the 6-speed transmission allows riders to make full use of the engine's performance.

The included Ducati Quick Shift up/down system allows clutchless upshifts and downshifts under appropriate riding conditions, making gear changes faster and more convenient during enthusiastic riding.

Premium Öhlins Suspension

One of the most important distinctions between the SuperSport 950 and the SuperSport 950 S is the premium suspension package.

The S model features a fully adjustable 48mm Öhlins inverted front fork and a fully adjustable Öhlins rear shock.

These components allow riders to tailor suspension settings to their preferences, road conditions, and riding style.

Whether navigating uneven pavement, enjoying mountain curves, or maintaining stability during more aggressive cornering, the Öhlins suspension contributes to a controlled and responsive riding experience.

The single-sided aluminum swingarm further complements the motorcycle's sporty chassis and distinctive Ducati styling.

Advanced Ducati Rider Electronics

The 2023 SuperSport 950 S features a sophisticated electronics package supported by a six-axis inertial measurement unit.

This technology helps the motorcycle monitor movement and lean angle, allowing its electronic assistance systems to respond more effectively during changing riding conditions.

Important systems include:

• Bosch Cornering ABS: Provides braking assistance that accounts for motorcycle lean angle.

• Ducati Traction Control: Helps manage rear-wheel traction during acceleration.

• Ducati Wheelie Control: Helps regulate front-wheel lift under acceleration.

• Ducati Riding Modes: Allow riders to select different combinations of performance and electronic settings.

• Ducati Power Modes: Adjust engine power delivery and throttle characteristics.

The motorcycle includes Sport, Touring, and Urban riding modes, allowing its behavior to be adapted to different roads and riding preferences.

Sport Mode emphasizes responsive performance, Touring Mode provides a balanced character for everyday travel, and Urban Mode offers more manageable power delivery for city riding.

Brembo Braking Performance

Ducati equips the SuperSport 950 S with a high-performance Brembo braking system.

Dual 320mm front discs are paired with radial-mount Brembo M4.32 monobloc calipers, providing strong braking performance and precise control.

A rear disc brake complements the front system, while Bosch Cornering ABS adds electronic assistance during braking.

The combination of Brembo hardware and Ducati's electronic technology contributes to rider confidence during commuting, highway travel, and more spirited recreational riding.

Sport Performance with Everyday Comfort

Although the SuperSport 950 S has aggressive styling inspired by Ducati's superbike lineup, its ergonomics are designed to be more accommodating than those of a dedicated racing motorcycle.

The handlebars are positioned to provide a sporty but manageable riding posture, while the seat and footpeg relationship balances cornering clearance with everyday comfort.

An adjustable windscreen helps riders manage airflow during highway travel, and the aerodynamic fairing provides additional protection from wind.

The approximately 31.9-inch seat height offers a relatively accessible position for a fully faired Ducati sport motorcycle, although rider comfort and ground reach depend on individual height and inseam.

With its comfortable sport-oriented ergonomics, responsive engine, and practical fuel capacity, the SuperSport 950 S can serve as both an exciting weekend motorcycle and an enjoyable daily rider.

Modern TFT Display and LED Lighting

A 4.3-inch full-color TFT display provides access to essential riding information and electronic settings.

The digital instrumentation presents speed, engine rpm, selected riding mode, gear position, and other vehicle information in a modern, easy-to-read layout.

Full LED lighting enhances the motorcycle's contemporary appearance, while the distinctive Ducati Daytime Running Light creates a recognizable front-end signature.

The combination of modern technology and purposeful design helps make the SuperSport 950 S feel refined without distracting from the riding experience.

Iconic Ducati Red Styling

The Ducati Red finish is one of the most recognizable colors in motorcycling, and it suits the SuperSport 950 S exceptionally well.

Its rich red bodywork emphasizes the sculpted fuel tank, aerodynamic fairing, sharp front profile, and flowing lines inspired by Ducati's superbike family.

The exposed mechanical details, black wheels, premium Öhlins suspension components, and single-sided swingarm create a striking contrast against the red exterior.

Unlike motorcycles designed exclusively for racing, the SuperSport 950 S combines its aggressive appearance with a more versatile riding position and practical equipment.

The result is a motorcycle that delivers unmistakable Italian sportbike styling while remaining enjoyable on everyday roads.
