Ducatisti, rejoice! The Italian company has taken the wraps off the brand new Monster 821, a mid-size entry for the third generation of the iconic naked model. Sporting the latest edition of Ducati’s successful 821 Testastretta 11° engine, the highly accessible new Monster combines 112hp and almost 90Nm of torque with a dry weight of 179kg.

High-spec brakes, excellent suspension and stylish componentry are merged with Ducati’s best-yet ergonomics to apparently offer the Italian manufacturer’s most attractive mid-range Monster ever. Apart from an innovative adjustable seat height, the model also combines 8-level traction control, 3-level ABS and 3-level Ride-by-Wire into Ducati’s user-friendly, press-button Riding Modes.
