Ducati Monster

Ducati Monster, 2026 V2 generation The latest Monster swaps the old 937cc engine for Ducati's new 890cc V-twin with intake variable valve timing, making 111 hp, and weighs a claimed 175 kg without fuel, four kilograms less than before. It is the most comfortable Monster yet, and the electronics add to the ride rather than dulling it. It is a slightly pricier choice than most rivals, and the suspension is simple, a non-adjustable Showa fork and a preload-adjustable shock, though it rides plushly and blends comfort with control. Testers noted occasional shift hesitation, and riders who loved the old engine's muscular torque may need time to adjust. Choose it if Italian character matters as much as value.
