Ducati engineers designed their first 250 cc for the track knowing that racing once again would provide all the experience they needed to eventually make a great 250 cc street machine.
Ducati's last real off-road, four stroke, competition motorcycles were the 1971 450 R/T and 450 R/S. Ducati re-entered racing in 1971, with the introduction of a high-performance 500 V-twin.
Ducati's first winning superbike, the 851, soon evolved into the 888 and then into the greased lightning 916, all legendary machines dear to the hearts of millions of biking enthusiasts.

 Ducati Monster - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Ducati Monster (Il Mostro) is a motorcycle produced by Ducati, in Bologna, Italy from 1993-present.
Ducati is best-known for its Desmo engine and its tubular steel trellis chassis, both designed by Fabio Taglioni (1920-2001).
Most recently the S2R model has been added to the Monster range; it is styled like the 4 valve S4R, but has the simpler 2 valve 800cc motor.

 Motorcyclist Magazine--Ducati Monster S4
If anything, Ducati is renowned as a resident of scenario two, as if the company philosophy were to proclaim: We are Ducati, and we build what we want.
It's clear Ducati didn't intend this engine to be exposed, and so the previously dominant Italian aesthetic retreats to the march of progress.
Ducati tamed the 916's delivery slightly with recut exhaust cams and a larger airbox fitted with a silencer, but it's still a rottweiler to the 904's primped poodle.

 Ducati Monster 620ie--October 2002
Ducati puts you in a comfortable yet aggressive position on the back of this 618cc'd critter, which feels great as you come around a curve searching ahead for the best line through the next grin inducing stretch of road.
The Monster gives you flexibility to play not only while riding, but while staring at it during those long winter days when all you can see is the salt truck through the gray winter sky.
The 2002 Monster must have the side stand up to start while the 2003 will allow you to warm up the bike, or start it up to give a listen, while the kick stand is down.

 2002 Ducati Monster 620 i.e.: MD Riding Impression
The Monster introduced by Ducati roughly a decade ago knocked the world of motorcycle design for a loop.
Although, in some ways, similar to "standards" built in the past, the Monster, with its trellis frame, and its timing (introduced when virtually all manufacturers were covering their bikes with lots of plastic) was revolutionary.
Ducati, which has a history of dialing in fuel injection very well (due, to some extent, to their extensive experience with fuel injection in racing) has done an excellent job with the new motor.

 Ducati 750 Monster Review--July 1997
For those who are not familiar with a Ducati engine, the desmodromic valve gear is a method by which a cam driven valve control is used to eliminate valve springs.
The 750 Monster has inverted forks, single disc brakes, front and back and 120/160 ZR tires which allow the cycle to ride over any meatballs in the road with ease.
The 750 Monster is also the only 1997 Ducati available in a silver metallic color which beautifully blends with the different hues of the metals present in the frame and other chassis components.

Let face it, even back in 1993, when the 900 cc Ducati Monster was unveiled, there was nothing monstrous about the 80 horsepower that the old air-cooled mill produced.
Tens of thousands of Monsters in various displacements became a Ducati staple and opened new markets for a factory that has always been identified with uncompromising hyper-sport torture racks.
As with previous Monsters, there is something wrong with the seat curvature that puts a lot of pressure on your tail bone.

 Sport Rider-2004 Ducati Monster S4R

The entire family uses a Ducati trellis frame derived from the Ducati Sport Touring family, all electronic instrument panels with integrated anti-theft immobiliser system and newly designed rear view mirrors for improved visibility.
Furthermore, the Monster S4R has an all-new instrument panel, lots of styling details in carbon fibre, newly designed rider and passengers foot rests, and the latest Showa front fork and rear shock absorber.

Ducati chose the Milan launch of the 2006 range to unveil a concept bike for the first time.
The opening salvo for this year’s Ducati Monster Challenge was fired in Houston, Texas this past weekend when 10 superbly prepared machines duked it out for the bragging rights for having the "Baddest" Monster in the Lone Star State.

In the States, the most noticeable difference was the presence of the M750, Ducati's "entry-level" motorcycle in the North American.
The most significant improvement the Monster Special offers is a brand new, fully adjustable 41mm Showa front fork and a single Sachs-Boge shock with spring preload and rebound damping adjustment.
The handling of the M900S is identical to the standard Monster: Excellent in city traffic, decent in the twisties, and poor at high speeds.

The new model dubbed the Monster S4RS will marry the Testastretta engine with the Monster chassis, as long rumored.
Ducati's initial response was the original S4 with the previous generation four valve, water cooled 916cc mill, then the 996 cc S4R with a 113 horses and the single sided swingarm.
Red with a white stripe and a pearl white model with a red stripe are the two available colors.

From the first post-war bicycle-like low-displacement motorbikes Ducati has grown over the years into a racing giant that is consistently competitive in both the racing arena and the world motorcycle marketplace.
In the 1970s Ducati began producing large-displacement L-twin motorcycles and in 1973 released a L-twin with the trademark desmodromic valve design.
Ducati is best known for high performance motorcycles characterized by trellis-style frames and large capacity four-stroke, 90-degree L-twin engines featuring a desmodromic valve design.

 Cartype : Ducati Monster Cromo 900
This was the first and only year for this carburated model, until the reintroduction of the fuel injected version for 2001, then discontinued again.
My favorite, and I believe the most valuable of all the carbureted 900 Monsters, is the 1999 Chromo model.
There was no Chromo model for 2000, and by the time it reappeared in 2001 with fuel injection, Ducati had robbed the bike of the adjustable front suspension.

 Ducati Monster S4R - webBikeWorld
The basic design that has made the Ducati Monster such a huge year-after-year success has been retained, but now - for the first time in the history of this motorcycle and after ten years of undisputed leadership - every aspect of the S4R has been given a decidedly aggressive look.
Other elements which highlight just how attentive Ducati is to set-up are the fully adjustable front Showa fork with TIN (titanium nitride treatment), and the rear shock absorber.
As requested by Monster owners themselves, the S4R has a riding position that abandons the semi-handlebar solution derived from the ST and now features an elegant, practical, variable cross-section aluminum handlebar.

 Dyna coils kit for Ducati Monster and SS.
The whole motivation of developing the Dyna kit was the discovery that the Nology coils wouldn't work with the "fl" ignition boxes found on Ms and SSs starting around 1994 or 1995.
As copied from my aftermarket page, the Ducati factory changed the ignition modules used to drive the coils at some point near 1995.

 2004 Ducati Monster 620 Motorcycle: Cheap Thrills, Italian-style   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-03)
So it is with the Ducati Monster 620, a sub-$7000, demi-entry-level motorcycle that embraces all the style and soul of its larger Monster brethren yet gains entry into the category by rigorous cost cutting.
More than a decade after the first Monster hit the streets, this one still strikes a fine pose, with great proportions, a fine color palette and an undefinable attitude.
For 2004, Ducati has tweaked the little Monster, giving the $6999 colored version—this year in red or yellow with a metallic gray frame and wheels—a small cockpit fairing, plus a six-speed transmission and back-torque-limiting clutch.

 Ducati 2005 Monster S2R
All the special features of the new model are in line with the acclaimed Monster S4R: aluminium alloy single-sided trellis swingarm, unique progressive rear suspension system with adjustable rear ride height, 5-spoke wheels, exhaust with double silencer mounted high on the right-hand side.
The S2R is available in the aggressive new shades of the 2005 colour range and also features an exclusive APTC clutch system, which ensures maximum safety on the most demanding roads by using a slipper device to prevent rear wheel lock when down shifting.
Deciding which Monster is right for you is just the beginning of the adventure.
