Explore the main features.
Design
Monster retains the DNA of 1993 but in a more modern, sporty and technological guise. The engine is the undisputed star at centre stage, added to the unmistakable bison-back tank. The full LED headlight maintains the iconic Monster circular shape and is brought even more up to date with the bright signature of the DRL. The view from above highlights its sinewy shapes. The seat, narrow in the arch, feeds into the powerful tank and extends, towards the rear, to meet with the volume of the sporty side fairings.
Engine
111 hp at 9,250 rpm with a maximum torque of 9.5 kgm delivered at just 6,500 rpm. An efficient and responsive engine in throttle response, smooth in city traffic but electrifying at medium-high revs. The Testastretta 11° is a liquid-cooled, 4-valve twin-cylinder with desmodromic timing system delivering an output of 111 horsepower. The 8-plate clutch is extremely compact and lightweight, while the selector drum works on bearings to minimise friction and improve precision and smoothness when shifting.
Chassis
The Monster makes lightness one of its strengths. Each component is designed to weigh as little as possible, from the aluminium Front Frame, inspired by the Panigale V4, to the tail section directly connected to the engine. The result is an agile and compact bike, ideal for daily use and pure enjoyment. To offer the best possible braking, while maintaining good modulability and light, precise control. This was the goal of the Ducati engineers as they worked with Brembo to develop a specific system that sees the M4-32 radial monobloc calipers act on a pair of 320 mm discs by way of sintered pads, to ensure sports performance in wet and dry conditions.
Technology
Standard equipment includes Cornering ABS, Traction Control and Wheelie Control, all of which can be adjusted according to different levels of intervention. The motorcycle’s sports attitude is further accentuated with Launch Control, which ensures lightning starts. This equipment allows for maximum expression of the bike's performance while maintaining a high degree of riding safety. The Monster is equipped with a Launch Control system that allows for extremely effective starts. Once activated, the system autonomously manages the engine revs (irrespective of the throttle) so that the rider need only manage the clutch when moving off. A “drag race mode” that ensures the best possible acceleration.
