DUCATIMonster 796 2011 - 2012

　　In 2011, the Italian motorcycle manufacturer launched the Ducati Monster 796, a standard or naked motorcycle that debuted in 2010 and continued production until 2014, when it was replaced by the Monster 821.

　　The bike was part of the Monster family that debuted in 1993, with the Monster 900 being the firstborn Monster machine. The Monster range quickly grew to include several Monster models with different engine displacements and similar appearances.

　　The 2011 Ducati Monster 796 was an exciting addition to the Monster family, combining the user-friendliness of the Monster 696 with the sporty character of the Monster 1100. Also, the design of the Monster 796 was made with help from passionate Monster owners and their valuable feedback.

　　In the performance department, the 2011 Ducati Monster 796 took its muscles from an 803cc four-stroke air-cooled V-twin engine with a fuel injection system in charge, delivering an output power of 87 hp with a peak force at 8,250 rpm and 79 Nm (58 lb-ft) torque at 6,250 rpm.

　　For suspension, the bike packed a 43 mm upside-down Showa telescopic fork on the front and a fully adjustable Sachs shock absorber on the rear, offering excellent suspension performance and handling.

　　As for the stopping power, the five Y-shaped spoke wheels were fitted with two 320 mm discs, four-piston calipers on the front, and a 245 mm disc with a dual-piston caliper on the rear, delivering strong braking performance.
