Ducati Monster 696 (2014)

The Ducati Monster 696 is a masterclass in design and engineering. A potent four-stroke, 90-degree twin-cylinder engine lies at its heart, delivering the trademark Ducati L-Twin power and flexibility.

Its slender waistline and wide handlebars create an unparalleled riding experience, balancing performance with everyday usability. This is a bike that’s just as comfortable carving through city streets as it is on the open road.

The Monster 696’s chassis technology is sport-derived, honed to perfection by Ducati’s engineers. Every finely engineered element of the chassis and engine is on display, exuding a sense of raw beauty and unbridled power.

Riding the Monster 696 is more than just getting from point A to B – it’s an experience that immerses you in the thrill of naked power. With its low seat height and intuitive ergonomics, every rider will feel confident and in control.

The result is a bike that’s not only breathtakingly stylish but also remarkably light, tipping the scales at just 161kg (dry weight). It’s the perfect package for those who crave the essence of motorcycling – raw power, unbridled freedom, and an experience that’s all about you. The Ducati Monster 696 is a true legend reborn, ready to take its rightful place in the pantheon of iconic motorcycles.
