New Monster or just a parts bin special?
|
HERE's A snap of what's rumoured to be the new Ducati Monster 1100 by a keen-eyed member of the Italian Ducati Monster Club website.
The bike looks like an updated Ducati Monster 696 with the 1100CC DS engine from a Ducati Multistrada. Compared to the 696 unit.
The air-cooled lump means the new bike gets 15bhp more up to 95bhp and gets a 26ft/lb of torque increase up to 76ft/lb.
New wheels and the single sided swinger from the Hypermotard are also being used.
Parts bin special or funky new Monster for the next phase of Ducati?
Not sure about this one, really.
