DUCATIMonster 1100S 2010 - 2011

　　In 2010, the Italian motorcycle manufacturer launched the Ducati Monster 1100S, a slightly modified version of the standard Monster 1100. The bike had the same performance specifications but was fitted with several top-end elements.

　　Compared to the standard model, the Ducati Monster 1100S packed race-derived Ohlins suspension both front and rear, carbon fiber elements, such as cam belt covers, mufflers guards, and front fender, lowering its weight by one kg (2.2 lbs), and gold-painted aluminum wheels for an elegant and sporty look.

　　The bike was part of the Monster family that debuted in 1993, with the M900 as the first member of the range. The Ducati Monster was manufactured in Bologna, Italy, and was designed by Miguel Angel Galluzzi.

　　In the appearance department, compared to earlier models, the Monster 1100S packed a dual under-seat-mounted exhaust system and a redesigned round headlight. It also came with a single-sided swingarm, Marchessini Y-shaped five-spoke lightweight wheels, and a single seat.

　　The 2010 Ducati Monster 1100S packed the same 1,078cc four-stroke air-cooled V-twin engine as the standard model, delivering 95 hp with maximum strength at 7,500 rpm and 103 Nm (76 lb-ft) torque at 6,000 rpm.

　　The bike had a different suspension system than the standard model, with a 43 mm fully adjustable upside-down TiN-coated Ohlins fork on the front and an adjustable Ohlins shock absorber with progressive linkage on the rear.
