The Ducati Monster (called Il Mostro in Italian) is a standard, or naked bike, motorcycle designed by Miguel Angel Galluzzi and produced by Ducati in Bologna, Italy, since 1993. In 2005, Monster sales accounted for over half of Ducati's worldwide sales. Like most modern Ducati motorcycles, it has a 90° V-twin engine, called an L-twin by Ducati, with desmodromic valves, and tubular steel trellis frame, designed by Fabio Taglioni (1920–2001). The Monster line has had numerous variations over the years, from entry level 400cc (24 cu in) bikes up to top-of-the-line 160hp (120 kW) multivalve, water-cooled superbike-engined versions, with as many as nine different Monster versions in a single model year. The Monster's elemental simplicity has also made it a favourite platform for custom motorcycle builders, showcased at competitions like the Monster Challenge. Monsters eventually accounted for two-thirds or more of Ducati's output.
This Ducati Monster is in good all-round condition for its age. The current vendor has been using the machine during this last summer. We have been advised that the machine was running well at the time of consignment. With a collection of receipts and old MOT certificates, the bike is offered with the current V5C.
