Participating dealers throughout the United States and Canada will host events, give demo rides and introduce fans to the first air-cooled Ducati to reach the 100hp milestone.
Key features of the Monster 1100 EVO include a redesigned tail section, new exhaust routing, a race-derived slipper clutch, and revised suspension. The bike also marks the debut of the new “Ducati Safety Pack,” which features the Ducati Traction Control system (adjustable on 4 levels) and ABS brakes.
“The 1100EVO is the first Ducati to reach 100 air-cooled horsepower, which is backed up by a significant 76lb/ft of torque thanks to the Desmodue Evoluzione engine. Wrapped into a svelte 373lb package, the 1100EVO also boasts the best power-to-weight ratio in Monster history. In the interest of rider comfort, the 1100EVO features a new seat design and higher handlebars- the combination of which gives the rider an excuse to stay on their bike longer and ride farther,” Ducati brags.
Ducati’s flagship Monster will retail for $11,995. Customers will be able to choose from two color schemes: red – with a racing-style white stripe along the center of the front mudguard, tank and single-seat cover – and red Trellis frame or black with both stripe and frame in racing-grey.
Both Monster colors use sporty looking black wheels with short red pin-strip and can be further personalized from a choice of additional liveries available within the innovative Monster Art program.
