DUCATI Monster 1100S (2009-2010) Specs, Performance & Photos

In 2009, the Italian motorcycle manufacturer launched the Ducati Monster 1100S, a naked machine part of the Monster family that debuted in 1993. The Ducati Monster was designed by Miguel Angel Galluzzi and was manufactured in Bologna, Italy.

Compared to the standard Monster 1100, the 1100S model featured a race-derived Ohlins suspension both front and rear, carbon fiber elements, such as cam belt covers, silencers guards, and front fender.

In the visual department, the Monster 1100S was slightly different from earlier models, with its under-seat-mounted exhaust system, gold-painted frame, wheels, and front fork. The carbon fiber elements reduced the overall weight by 1 kg (2.2 lbs).

In other departments, the 1100 S version was identical to the standard model, packing the same technical, visual, and performance specifications.

In the power department, the 2009 Ducati Monster 1100S was powered by a 1,078cc four-stroke air-cooled V-twin engine with a fuel injection system in charge, delivering an output power of 95 hp with a peak force at 7,500 rpm and 103 Nm (76 lb-ft) torque at 6,000 rpm.

The bike's handling was achieved by a 43 mm fully adjustable upside-down TiN-coated Ohlins fork on the front and an adjustable Ohlins shock absorber on the rear, offering excellent handling capabilities.

In 2023 (at the time of writing), the 2009 Ducati Monster 1100S was for sale with an average price of $10,500,
