In November 2005, the Italian motorcycle manufacturer announced the Ducati Monster S4RS Testastretta, a top-of-the-range model that packed the engine from the 999 Superbike, Ohlins suspension, both front and rear, and radial front brakes.

The Ducati Monster S4RS Testastretta was released in 2006 and was manufactured through 2008. It was part of the Monster family that debuted in 1993 with the M900 machine designed by Miguel Angel Galluzzi.

In the visual department, the bike was fitted with standard features, such as a round headlight, a front cowl with a small windscreen, a single seat with a passenger rear cover, a high-mounted dual exhaust system, and five-spoke Y-shaped aluminum wheels.

The bike was built on a tubular steel Trellis frame, fitted with a 43 mm fully adjustable upside-down TiN-coated Ohlins fork on the front and a fully adjustable Ohlins shock absorber with progressive linkage on the rear, providing excellent handling capabilities.

In the power department, the 2006 Ducati Monster S4RS Testastretta had its heartbeat set by a 998cc four-stroke liquid-cooled V-twin engine that delivered an output power of 130 hp with maximum strength at 9,500 rpm and 104 Nm (77 lb-ft) torque at 7,500 rpm.

It was the most powerful machine in Ducati's range at the time, and thanks to a six-speed manual transmission and a dry weight of 177 kg (390 lbs), it reached a top speed of 247 kph (153 mph).

In 2023, the 2006 Ducati Monster S4RS Testastretta was for sale with an average price of $8,000, depending on its condition.
