DUCATIMonster 796 2013 - 2014

　　In 1993, the Italian motorcycle manufacturer introduced the Monster family with their firstborn child Ducati Monster 900. The Monster range was a series of naked or standard machines that grew to include several models with similar appearances and different engine displacements.

　　One of the Monster members was the Ducati Monster 796, which debuted in 2010 and continued production until 2014 when it was replaced by the Monster 821. The Monster 796 was an urban icon that combined the user-friendliness of the 696 and the sporty character of the 1100.

　　In 2013, the Italian motorcycle maker launched the Ducati Monster 796, a standard or naked machine in its fourth consecutive year of production, similar to its predecessors, without any significant modifications whatsoever.

　　The 2013 Monster packed a red Trellis frame and red fuel tank covers, a single seat with a passenger cowl, a single-sided swingarm, an under-seat-mounted dual exhaust system, and five Y-shaped spoke lightweight aluminum wheels.

　　At the bike's core was the same 803cc four-stroke air-cooled V-twin engine with an electronically controlled fuel injection system, boating 87 hp with a peak at 8,250 rpm and 79 Nm (58 lb-ft) torque at 5,250 rpm.

　　The 2013 Ducati Monster 796 packed a tubular steel Trellis frame with a 43 mm upside-down telescopic fork on the front and a rebound and preload-adjustable shock absorber on the rear, offering excellent handling capabilities.
