Ducati Monster 797 (2017 – 2018)

Ducati Monster 797 (2017 - 2018)

The Ducati Monster 797 is the latest iteration of the iconic air-cooled twin-cylinder bike that has been stripped back to its roots. The 803cc engine, a nod to the original Monster design, produces a modest 75hp and is paired with a traditional tubular trellis frame.

The riding experience is characterized by a raw, unbridled energy, reminiscent of the early Monsters. With a focus on simplicity and minimalism, the bike’s handling is uncompromisingly aggressive, with non-adjustable forks and a Sachs rear shock with limited adjustability.

As you ride, the Ducati Monster 797 rewards its rider with an honest, uncomplicated connection to the road, unencumbered by excessive bodywork or electronic frills.
