The Ducati Monster 1200R takes the naked sports bike to new extremes with its potent 1200cc Testastretta 11 DS R version twin-cylinder engine. Delivering 152 horsepower and 97 lb-ft of torque, this powerhouse is 10% more powerful and 5.5% more torqued than its Monster 1200 S counterpart.
The bike’s riding experience is characterized by a smooth, full-bodied delivery at low and medium RPMs, making it feel perfectly comfortable on daily commutes while still capable of unleashing its true racing potential on the track.
With its higher stance and extreme lean angles made possible by Pirelli Diablo Supercorsa SP tyres, new suspensions, and Hlins steering damper, the Monster 1200R is a thrill-seeker’s dream come true. Its lightweight design, featuring forged wheels and carbon fibre components, brings the total dry weight down to just 397 pounds.
And with the Ducati Safety Pack and three Riding Modes (Sport, Touring, and Urban) on board, this naked sports model by Ducati is not only exhilarating but also remarkably safe and easy to ride. The Monster 1200R truly lives up to its name as a masterclass in performance and handling.
