Their most successful model is lighter and faster, so we’re excited that Ducati has unveiled a new Monster lineup. Addressing every possible complaint about the 821 series, the dry weight starts at only 366 lbs. Nominal saddle height is 32.2″, but a lowering kit and an optional low saddle can drop it to only 30″. The saddle is now closer to the forks, and they added 7* to the steering angle. Steering is now laid back at 36 degrees for more comfort and response.
Three riding modes have unique torque curves for Sport, Urban, and Touring. Your phone can be tucked away thanks to Ducati Multimedia Bluetooth and charged from the USB under the saddle. The pièce de résistance is a 937cc desmo. It delivers 111 horsepower and 69 lb-ft of torque nearly uninterrupted thanks to Ducati QuickShift. They have delivered over 350,000 examples since the first Monster arrived in ’93, and our dealers have prices that won’t scare you. Click the button below and ride safe.
