DUCATIMonster 821 2015 - 2016

　　The large Monster family from Ducati has been growing year by year since 1993. In 2015 it was ready to add another motorcycle to the family, a bike that essentially was a Monster 1200 with the same 821 Testastretta engine used on the Ducati Hypermotard and Hyperstrada. The Monster 821 came to life and joined the big happy family.

　　As said, the 821 is pulling its power from an 821cc Testastretta Desmodromic liquid-cooled engine. With the help of a six-speed gearbox, the bike was crafting 107 hp at 9,250 rpm and 86 Nm (63 lb-ft) of torque.

　　The chassis of the Monster 821 was a conventional tubular steel frame attached to the cylinder head. For suspension, the 821 used an upside-down 43 mm fork at the front and an adjustable monoshock at the rear.

　　The front and back 10-spoke cast aluminum wheels were mated with a pair of Pirelli Diablo Rosso tires. The wheels are brought to a stop by two 320 mm Brembo discs at the front, and a 245 mm disc at the rear.

　　This two-seater is equipped with several Riding Modes, Power Modes, the Ducati Safety Pack (DSP) that included ABS and DTC, and much more. The dry weight of the bike is 170 kg (395 lbs)

　　In 2022, the selling price of the 2015 Ducati Monster 821 started at $7,800.
