Ducati Monster 696 (2010)

The Ducati Monster 696 embodies the perfect blend of style, substance, and pure riding pleasure. Its 90-degree twin-cylinder engine produces a potent 80hp and 50.6lb-ft of torque, delivering a smooth and exhilarating ride that’s equally at home in city streets as it is on twisty backroads.

The L-Twin engine’s signature sound is music to the ears, courtesy of its bold high-level exhausts and optimized fuel injection system. Ducati’s renowned “less-is-more” philosophy shines through in every detail, from the lightweight APTC clutch to the carefully crafted chassis that provides a responsive and engaging ride experience.

At the heart of the Monster 696 lies a highly efficient engine with advanced APTC wet clutch, featuring slipper-type action and super-light feel at the lever. With its sporty ergonomics, revised suspension, and optional ABS, this bike is the perfect choice for those seeking an authentic Italian motorcycle experience that’s both thrilling and rewarding to ride.
