The fully adjustable Öhlins suspension, with the fork 0.6 kg lighter than that adopted on Monster and Monster +, increases the feel, as well as increasing ground clearance and consequently the lean angle.
The Monster range grows with the SP version, designed to enhance fun, thanks to technical equipment perfect for those who love sporty riding and embellish style with the Moto GP-inspired livery.

The Monster represents all the essence of Ducati in the most compact, essential and lightweight form possible. Precise in corners. Stable in straight lines. With the SP version you can enjoy more effective sports riding thanks to the absolute top-notch technical equipment such as Öhlins suspension, Brembo Stylema® front calipers, Termignoni homologated silencer, Pirelli Diablo Rosso IV tires, steering damper and lithium battery.
The upgrading of the braking system with Brembo Stylema® calipers and aluminium flanges for the 320 mm front brake discs (0.5 kg lighter than the Monster equipment) makes the Monster SP more performing when braking, but, at the same time, more agile thanks to the reduction of inertia at the front.
The general lightening of the bike also comes with the adoption of a lithium-ion battery, which brings the overall weight saving to about 2 kg in running order compared to the standard model, already a benchmark in the category for lightness, despite the addition of components such as the steering damper and the windshield.
Many of the electronic systems that are now standard on motorbikes were pioneered by Ducati, which has earned a place among the most advanced companies in the sector. Safety, comfort and performance improved thanks to the continuous improvement.

Standard equipment includes ABS Cornering, Ducati Traction Control, Ducati Wheelie Control, all adjustable to different levels of intervention. The sporty character of the new Monster is also emphasized by Launch Control, which ensures lightning-fast starts. This top-of-the-line motorcycle equipment allows the Monster to safely express its performance.
Sport, Road and Wet Riding Modes allow you to mold the character of the Monster according to your tastes and needs. Everything is easily managed through the handlebar controls and the 109.22 mm (4.3-inch) color TFT dashboard.
Traction control is an intelligent system that acts as a "filter" between the accelerator and the rear tire. The system allows a choice of eight different levels of intervention. The traction control levels are preset for each of the three Riding Modes, but can be customized to suit the rider and road characteristics, as well as for other electronic driving aid systems.
The new Monster SP is equipped with a Launch Control system that enables incredibly efficient starts. The system once "armed" autonomously manages the engine revs (whatever the throttle grip is opened) and leaving the rider with only the task of managing the clutch at the start. A "drag race" proof mode that allows the best possible acceleration.
ABS Cornering aptly uses the signals from Bosch’s IMU platform to maximise balancing of the braking power delivered to the front and rear wheels even in critical situations and with the motorcycle in a leaning position. By interacting with the Riding Modes, the system is able to provide the ideal solution for every situation and riding condition according to rider’s preferences.
The Ducati Quick Shifer (DQS) up/down is an electronic shift assist system that allows gear engagement without the need to pull the clutch either up or downshifting. This system not only makes sporty riding more fun, but is also a valuable aid in city traffic and on winding roads that require frequent use of the transmission.
