Ducati recently took the wraps off the new Monster for 2021. The new naked roadster from Ducati gets significant updates in terms of styling, performance and features. As was the case earlier, Ducati has not put a suffix after the monster denoting the displacement of the motorcycle. Ducati is likely to streamline the Monster portfolio. Speaking with carandbike in an exclusive interaction, Ducati India Managing Director Bipul Chandra revealed that the new Ducati Monster will definitely be launched in India, and will be introduced later this year. Production of the new Ducati Monster will start soon at Ducati's Thailand factory, and subsequently it will be launched in India . Here are the top highlights of the all-new Ducati Monster.
(One of the biggest changes on the 2021 Monster is the new lightweight Aluminium front frame, that replaces the traditional steel trellis frame. The bike is lighter than before, with a dry weight of 166 kg, which is a massive 18 kg lesser than the previous generation 821. The sub-frame at the rear is made of glass fibre reinforced polymer (GFRP), making it lighter and stronger than before)
(The Monster retains its aggressive stance and now wears a more chiselled, lean and mean look. The styling on the new Monster is a complete departure from the design language of the earlier Monster range. The motorcycle gets a lot more edges now and become leaner and meaner. The chiselled fuel tank and the new LED headlight)
(The 2021 Monster also gets a 4.3-inch TFT console with graphics inspired by Panigale V4. The new Monster gets ABS, cornering ABS, power launch, traction control and wheelie control along with ride-by-wire and three riding modes which are Sport, Touring and Urban. All modes allow the rider to adjust the other electronics as per their requirement)
(The Ducati Monster 2021 gets a 937 cc L-Twin Testastretta engine which makes 110 bhp and 93.5 Nm. The engine is seen on other Ducati models too such as the Hypermotard and 2021 SuperSport.The engine is paired to a 6-speed gearbox and Ducati offers a bi-directional quick-shifter as standard)
