Urban Icon





The Monster 796 has it all: outstanding style performance and comfort. A joy-to-ride gem bursting with iconic Italian design.





Less is Monster





The 'less-is-more' philosophy behind all Monsters underlines Ducati's never-ending pursuit of genuinely compact high performance motorcycles but these new models have succeeded in being even more 'pared down' than their predecessors. Every single component has been redesigned and redeveloped so now more than ever form follows function. With any details detracting from the Monster concept being eliminated 'less-is-more' also means 'less-is-Monster'. Less weight plus more torque equals fun-filled riding.
