The new Monster 796 is equipped with Ducati’s 803 cc engine from the Hypermotard 796.
It has 87 hp and weighs just 167 kg, dry.
While still the bike we know and love, the 2010 Monster 796 will have a few improvements to make it even more rider friendly.
The comfortable riding style gets new ergonomic design, making this a rider’s bike that adapts to most riding styles.
It has a wet slipper clutch and the same characteristic red trellis frame.
ABS is available as an optional extra.

On the Italian market the Ducati Monster 796 will be available from the end of April at a price of about 8,990 euros.
