2016 Ducati Monster 821 Dark, Monster 821 Dark Essentially Monster The allure of Dark style and the unmistakable Ducati roar released from the 112 hp Testastretta 11° engine are hallmarks of the Monster 821 Dark. Trellis frame, Riding Modes, and the Ducati Safety Pack are the elements that bring you unprecedented riding pleasure. Monster 821 Dark. Designed according to your desires, to be even more Monster. CHASSIS UNMISTAKABLE FUEL TANK: The Monster's 17.5 L fuel tank is an integral part of the bike's overall design. The distinctive fuel tank, pure "Monster" in style, completes the Monster's strong, unmistakable silhouette, while its metal structure and sculpted knee panels give the bike a feeling of solidity. BREMBO BRAKING SYSTEM: The front brakes of the Monster 821 have high-performance, pump-activated Brembo monobloc M4-32 radial callipers, equipped with high-calibration multiple 9MP ABS as standard. The four-piston front callipers, fitted radially, act on 320 mm discs, while the Brembo two-piston rear calliper is fitted on a 240 mm disc. CUSTOMIZED ERGONOMICS: The dimensions of the new Monster 821 have been completely redefined and its ergonomics redesigned to offer maximum versatility in all situations and driving conditions. The new dimensions of the Monster provide ample space even for a rider 1.85 m tall and a passenger 1.75 m tall, also enabling you to transport luggage without any problems. The seat position is very comfortable, ideal even for long distances, and the driving position is upright thanks to the best possible positioning of the handlebars. The whole thing is completed by a passenger seat with an easily removable cover, and lowered footpegs and handles which make the ride comfortable and enjoyable for the passenger. 10-SPOKE WHEELS: The ten-spoke lightweight aluminium alloy wheels guarantee agility and perfect control of the set-up at all speeds. The 3.5x17 front wheel and 6x17 rear are fitted with Pirelli Diablo Rosso II 120/70 ZR and 180/60 ZR tyres respectively. FRAME INSPIRED BY RACING BIKES: The new Monster has a frame structure that's inspired by the racing models, with the engine as the star. The structure is comprised of a compact Ducati trellis frame, mounted directly onto the cylinder heads and the engine itself. Even the shock and the rear sub-frame are connected to the engine. The sub-frame has a classic tubular layout and is further enhanced by the way it is coupled with the exhaust system, the plastic parts and the tail light. This sophisticated, light and robust structure enables the Monster to achieve the lowest kerb weight in its category(205.5 Kg). ENGINE TESTASTRETTA 11°: The Monster 821 is powered by the Testastretta 11° 821 cc engine, with air injection system. A secondary air system similar to the one used on the 1199 Panigale has been introduced in order to optimise operation and reduce combustion cycle variability, without affecting emissions.
