2016 Ducati Multistrada 1200 Enduro Star White Slik

2016 Ducati Monster 1200 S Star White

The "Performance package" boosts the Testastretta 11° DS engine to 145 CV and makes the power easy to handle thanks to race-derived Brembo brakes and the Öhlins suspension. The carbon front mudguard and the machined rims with their light, aggressive design are the signature of every "S" version. Let yourself be guided by your Monster instinct.

The new Monster 1200 family is powered by the second generation of Testastretta 11° DS engine, smoother and with dual spark plugs and a secondary air system. Dual Spark (DS) ignition uses two plugs per cylinder to ensure complete combustion in a very short time. A secondary air system similar to that of the 1199 Panigale has been introduced to optimise operation and reduce cyclic combustion variability without affecting emissions. A controlled flow of fresh air is supplied to the exhaust duct to enable complete oxidisation of hot unburnt gases, to effectively reduce hydrocarbon and carbon monoxide levels.

The new Monster 1200 range features a totally redefined size, and ergonomics designed to offer "one-bike-in-the-garage" versatility. The new Monster size ensures ample accomodations even for a rider 185 cm tall and a passenger 175 cm tall, also allowing baggage to be loaded without compromises. The seat position is very comfortable, allowing long distance riding if desired; the riding position is upright thanks to a high handlebar fixed close to the rider; and a passenger seat with easily removed cover, low passenger footpegs, and integrated passenger handles welcome anyone the rider wishes to bring along.

The Monster 1200 S comes standard with a "performance package" that offers more power (+ 10 Hp) and torque (+ 1 Kgm), front and rear Ohlins suspension components, and a Superbike-spec Brembo brake system. The front mudguard in carbon fibre and the Y-pattern 3-spoke machined wheels complete the "S" equipment. In EU markets, the Monster 1200 S also features LED turn lights.

Take the Monster one step beyond its iconic design with three different kits to personalise your motorcycle. Each specific pack is conceived to enhance your riding experience and includes design elements to suit your preferred style. Highlight your Monster and express your personality with one or more of the available packs: Sport, Touring and Urban.
