Monster 821: Ducati expands its "Mostr-eau" range

Following in the footsteps of, this Monster 821 would continue the transition to liquid cooling initiated by Ducati on its iconic roadsters. Visually close to the new 1200, this 2015 novelty (?) Is a priori powered by the 821cc 11 ° twin-cylinder discovered on the .
