In 2010, the Italian Motorcycle manufacturer launched the Ducati Monster 796, a standard or naked motorcycle part of the Monster family. The Monster range was first introduced in 1993 with the Ducati Monster 900 as the firstborn child.
In 2011, alongside the Monster 796 Rossi MotoGP Replica, the Italian maker launched the Ducati Monster 796 Hayden MotoGP Replica, a machine dedicated to Ducati's factory rider of the MotoGP race.
Both machines featured a unique paint scheme with the rider's respective logo and racing number on the fuel tank panels, micro-bikini fairing, single-seat cover, and front mudguard.
Besides that, both models packed the same features and specifications as the standard machine, with a red frame, a single seat with a passenger cowl, an under-seat-mounted exhaust system, a single-sided swingarm, and five Y-shaped spoke aluminum wheels.
As for power, the 2011 Ducati Monster 796 Hayden MotoGP Replica took its muscles from an 803c four-stroke air-cooled V-twin engine, fed by a fuel injection system, delivering an output power of 87 hp at 8,250 rpm and 79 Nm (58 lb-ft) torque with a peak force at 6,250 rpm.
The bike's power was handled by a six-speed manual transmission with a hydraulic-controlled wet multi-plate clutch and a final chain drive, pushing the motorcycle to 200 kph (125 mph).
As for stopping power, the wheels were fitted with two 320 mm discs and four-piston calipers on the front and a 245 mm disc with a dual-piston caliper on the rear.
