A relaxed one-to-one interview with Roberto Canè, eMobility Director of Ducati, talking to Lamb Chop at the Silverstone MotoGP, with some good under-the-fairing video amongst other things:

Damon / Shiny thing, increased price, early 2023 delivery at best
« on: March 24, 2022, 04:00:47 AM »
TLDR: there are no updates to the bits that matter (motor, battery), but look! A shiny thing. OVER THERE!

Extract from their email:

All HyperSports Now Come With a Single-Sided Swingarm

You're going to receive a lot more updates from us as we prepare to begin shipping bikes. To start, we're excited to share that all HyperSports will arrive with a single-sided swingarm!

Furthermore, we're going to bring you exciting behind-the-scenes content as we build, test, validate, and plan the delivery of your bike. You'll see it as it happens.

Pricing Updates

Since initially setting our pricing structure, a lot has changed. Inflation and the costs of components and materials have risen considerably, beyond our control. We're packing so much into every bike – but there are some critical things we're not willing to compromise on like technology, safety, and unique Damon features.

As of April 5th, 2022, our pricing will change for all new buyers only.

    HS will now cost $28,000 USD or est. $388/month [was $25k]
    SX will now cost $24,000 USD or est. $333/month [was $20k]
    SE will now cost $19,000 USD or est. $264/month [was $17k]

Because you applied for a test ride, we're letting you know first and giving you the opportunity to reserve before the prices change. Just place a reservation by April 4th, 2022 to be granfathered into the original price.

Production & Delivery Timeline

After breaking ground on our state-of-the-art manufacturing facility in Surrey, BC, Canada last year, we will soon ramp up production. This development has allowed us to better estimate the HyperSport ship dates: First deliveries will begin early 2023, and we will ship in volume throughout next year.

Like most companies, we've been affected by the supply chain delays caused by COVID-19. However, we're coming out the other side, transforming these unforeseen obstacles into opportunities to further strengthen our partnerships with industry-leading brands for your Damon motorcycle. We look forward to announcing our partners in the next few months.

General Discussion / NewZeroland dropped off YouTube?

No videos, but there's still an 'About' page, but that seems to be all.
Or is it just a temporary hiccup, Sam?

[EDIT: I can see another bike channel that also has it's videos missing, so that suggests it's more than likely to be a YouTube issue. Fingers crossed!]

General Discussion / Tour de France

A bit random, but boy do I look forward to not having to listen to the tedious whine of the BMW twin camera motorbikes.
Think how silent and green it will be with electric camera motorbikes instead!

Just need to lose the helicopters, swap out the team cars for electric, and it will be a damned sight more peaceful.
