Ducati Monster 1100, 2009
FEATURES:
Engine
Desmodromic charisma
The Monster 1100 power unit is the legendary air-cooled, Desmodromic 1100cc engine with 95hp of unmistakable Ducati character. With an incredibly flexible power delivery, this engine ensures fantastic acceleration just when you need it, even on the most challenging of routes. The impressive 75,9lb-ft of torque, typical of the Ducati L-Twin Dual Spark engines, will excite with every twist of the throttle.
Chassis
The Monster 1100 is the lightest bike in its class: The 1100 S weighs in at 168kg (370lbs) and the 1100 at just 169kg (373lbs)!
The exceptional handling, combined with legendary torque from the Ducati Desmo engine, results in a pure, adrenalin-filled ride. Extremely lightweight 5-spoke Marchesini wheels help reduce unsprung weight, while the beautifully shaped single-sided swingarm gives the Monster a 'tough' look while ensuring higher rigidity, reduced weight and enhanced road holding. Increased ground clearance enables maximum lean angles when you explore the sports side of the Monster 1100 to the full.
The 43mm Showa forks and Sachs rear suspension unit are adjustable to suit your riding style and provide that perfect 'feel'. The short Trellis frame, developed in conjunction with Ducati Corse, uses the same tube diameter and thickness as the 1098 R, while the rear subframe is derived from Desmosedici RR technology. The fantastic Brembo braking system features a radial master cylinder feeding radially mounted four-piston calipers on twin 320mm discs, an incredible set-up that guarantees optimum braking.
Design
The Monster design perfectly balances sports performance, riding pleasure and stunning looks.
With frame technology derived from the Desmosedici and flexible power delivered from the legendary L-Twin engine, the Monster is able to perform both in the busiest of city streets and the most exhilirating of open roads. The Monster's essential design and unique sound sets it aside from all others.
