The redesign of the 1200 Monster only results in the best. Promise of agility, more visual lightness, the return of an early Monster spirit (although the weight is very far …). Ducatists will undoubtedly appreciate it. One that will taste less of this update is the S version. However, it benefits from the same evolutions, tastes beautiful suspensions, but shares the same engine configuration. Yellow grin, she who could boast of 10 more horses before.
Fortunately, she has many arguments to make, allowing him to pass this pill. Among others. The strong point of the S versions shines like a promise. The gold tubes do not deceive: a beautiful duo of Ohlins suspensions officiate for superior handling. A single shock absorber holds the single swingarm as much as the big watts of the Testastretta 11 ° DS. The inverted fork, a 48mm TIN model, accommodates two large Brembo M50 brake calipers in its arms. With 330 mm diameter brake tracks, the 1200 Monster S has the same gear as a Panigale.
It also makes the difference with the standard model by adopting an Up & Down shifter, DRL daytime running lights, a carbon front fender, 3 Y-spoke rims, and a lower weight of 2 kilos.
The ex-1200 Monster and Monster S each played in their power register. 135 horses for one, 145 for the other. Equity is now established: 150 nags for everyone (147 with the overhaul of the measurement system). We are no longer very far from R. A force, a violence close to those which the club of the big monsters prides itself on, S 1000 R, Tuono V4 1100 and Superduke 1290.
Ducati has planned everything to channel this; a little too much perhaps. The electronic range is strong: power modes, 3 driving modes, 8-level traction control, 8-position anti-wheeling, and ABS cornering. Thanks to the IMU inertial unit installed in this evolution of the 1200 Monster, its braking is reactive to the angle taken and moderates the force according to it..
Some design retouching accompanies the noticeable return of the tank hook loop. The chassîs, improved by a narrow column angle and a reduced wheelbase, will take on a renewed dynamism; and all the more so with Ohlins equipment. Always full of poise, muscular if not airy, the Ducati Monster 1200 S is one of those motorcycles that we look at with envy and respect. The gear, the technique, the performances are equivocal. However, do not expect any delicacy at the financial level, the productions of Bologna are not known to be of all budgets. Especially at such a level of sportiness.
