In case you missed out, the Ducati World Premiere web series has officially come to an end with the fifth and final episode in which it unveiled the new Monster.
The fifth and final episode of the Ducati World Premiere web series saw the Borno Panigale manufacturer reveal its new Monster. The motorcycle is a symbol of success for the history of Ducati as it is the best-selling model ever with more than 350,000 units being produced since its presentation.
The latest Monster represents Ducati in all its essence. It comes with the original 1993 sporty engine which is perfect for road use. The engine is combined with a Superbike-derived frame.
According to Ducati, the new Monster is based on the same concepts that bind it to the unforgettable Monster 900. The result is a bike with an advanced, easy and efficient chassis. It is capable of immediately establishing the perfect feeling with the rider. The riding position is less loaded on the wrists and the engine offers an excellent balance between power, torque and ease of handling.
The Monster is powered by the Testastretta 11° 937 cc twin cylinder L-shaped engine. It comes with desmodromic distribution and Euro 5 homologation. Compared to the previous 821 it increases in displacement, power, torque and decreases in weight (-2.4 kg) to contribute to the lightness of the bike and offer better rideability. It now delivers 111 hp at 9,250 rpm with maximum torque of 9.5 Nm delivered at just 6,500 rpm, proving to be efficient and reactive in throttle response.
Thanks to the increased displacement, the torque is improved at all revs, particularly in the medium-low range, most used on the road and between curves. This guarantees thrilling performance as well as riding ease and pleasure. This is supported by the new gearbox and the Ducati Quick Shift Up / Down fitted as standard. The Monster is also available in a 35-kW version, suitable for A2 license holders.
The new Monster is equipped with three Riding Modes (Sport, Urban, Touring) that allow shaping the character of the bike according to tastes and needs. Everything is easily managed through the handlebar controls and the 4.3″ colour TFT dashboard featuring racing graphics that echo those of the Panigale V4, with a large rev counter that shows the indication of the gear inserted.
To allow each Monsterista to make their bike even more unique, sticker kits have been created that enhance the shapes of the Monster and celebrate Ducati’s sportiness. For those wishing to accentuate the style of their Monster in an even more decisive way, cover kits will also be available. As with all Ducati motorcycles, a wide range of Ducati Performance accessories is also available, such as the double Termignoni approved silencer with carbon fibre end caps. In the section dedicated to the configurator on Ducati.com all the customization options can be viewed.
The new Monster is available in Ducati Red and Dark Stealth with black wheels, Aviator Grey with GP Red wheels. For those who want the bike with an even sportier image, there is the Plus version in the same colours with an aerodynamic windshield and the cover for the passenger seat as standard.
The Monster will be available in Ducati dealerships starting from April 2021.
