DUCATI SUPERSPORT 950 S GETS A CLASSY NEW LOOK
Ducati ’ s Supersport 950 lineup is often overshadowed by the brand ’ s more illustrious sport bikes like the Panigale V2 . But for 2024 the Supersport 950S is getting a classy new look that will hopefully help it stand out from its more sport focused stablemates . The new Stripe Livery resembles the livery employed on the DesertX and is a handsome addition to the Supersport S ’ s bodywork . It sees two brand-new dark grey and Ducati Red coloured bands , located on the front mudguard and on the side air vents create a play of shapes that gives a further boost to the “ Iceberg White ” fairing , for a dynamic final effect . The Supersport S is available in two colours in New Zealand with the new Stripe Livery being the premium option of the two . Pricing is set at $ 27,237 , a premium of $ 437 over the Ducati Red option . With a colour-matched seat cowl and factory equipped 48mm USD Öhlins forks and an
Öhlins monoshock slotting in for the 43mm fork and Sachs shock of the base Supersport 950 , the 950 S is the more sporty of the Supersport options . The base Supersport , which remains the most affordable way onto a Ducati sports bike , will remain available only in Ducati Red and is priced from $ 23,900 .
