Ducati Monster 1200 – Comes with a new innovation that combines innovative technology with three Riding Modes (URBAN, TOURING, SPORT) is enabled by combining class-leading technologies such as Ride-by-Wire (RBW), Ducati Traction Control (DTC), multi-9MP ABS-calibration and graphics on the instrument panel. The Ride-by-Wire (RBW) system is an electronic interface between the Monster twistgrip and engine, which configures an ideal power response depending on the riding mode selected. Twistgrip not have a throttle cable connected directly to the throttle body butterflies, but instead gives a signal to the control unit, which in turn operates the butterfly is controlled electronically. Where the driver can change the character of the bike by choosing from the left switchgear-even while riding-the three pre-set configurations with different riding style or riding conditions. The Riding Mode allows to directly alter the power delivered by the engine (RBW), the level of activation of the DTC and ABS, and graphics on the instrument panel. The Riding Mode is factory pre-set in each of the three parameters, but can be individually customized and saved to suit the rider. A “default” option is available to easily return all settings to factory pre-sets.
Ducati Monster 1200 offers new performance and fluidity of the Testastretta 11 ° DS engine, the flexibility of three horses Mode, adjustable seat and passenger comfort handle make Ducati Monster 1200 bike that is able to adapt to any occasion, so you can follow your instincts in every situation. Design Ducati Monster 1200 unmistakeable truly iconic and means there is no limit to your pleasure.

Dual Spark (DS ) ignition using two spark plugs per cylinder to ensure complete combustion within a very short time. A secondary air system is similar to the 1199 Panigale has been introduced to optimize the operation and reduce the combustion cyclic variability without affecting emissions. Controlled flow of fresh air is supplied to the drain to allow complete oxidation of unburned gas heat, to effectively reduce the levels of hydrocarbons and carbon monoxide. Supan air and exhaust has been tuned to provide enhanced low-rpm torque at medium channel, intake manifold, throttle body and the pipe has a smaller diameter to provide exceptional torquey character. Due to the air intake and exhaust are dedicated second generation Testastretta 11 ° DS engine delivers power comparable to 3/4-cylinder engine and engine management system dedicates a lambda probe to each header, providing precise fuel, while the stylish cannon-style, vertically stacked silencers carry catalytic converters to provide Euro 3 conformity. A mid-valve parts electronically controlled exhaust gas pressure optimizes the entire rev-range.
Ducati Monster 1200 comes with powerful new features die-cast aluminum single-sided swingarm that guarantees high stiffness, low weight, and excellent stability, chassis geometry Ø 43 mm fully adjustable upside-down fork, while the rear uses preload-and-rebound adjustable Sachs mono-shock also provide technical and professional look. This structure is composed by a compact Ducati trellis directly fixed to the cylinder head and the engine itself, the shock absorber-rear sub-frame and also connected to the machine.

This sophisticated lightweight frame structure and rigid that allows Monster to achieve the lowest curb weight in its category (209Kg).
Braking system, Ducati Monster 1200 the section uses front brakes Brembo Monobloc M4-32 calipers, which provide high performance braking and driven by a radial pump with multi-calibration 9MP ABS as standard. The 4-piston, twin radially-mounted callipers grip two Ø 320 mm front discs, while a single Ø 240 mm disc at the rear is gripped by a two piston calliper Brembo is also used. With the support of maximum performance and steering response at all speeds guaranteed by the 10-spoke lightweight aluminum wheels. Wheels 3.5×17 front and 6×17 rear wheels are equipped, respectively, with 120/70 ZR and 190/55 ZR tires Pirelli Diablo Rosso II.
