Italians, first:

That's the all-new Ducati Monster 696cc. it's got a brand new frame,
brand new styling, brand new forks and swingarm, it's got the usual air-cooled Vtwin.

Rated at 80CV (59kW) @ 9000 rpm / 7kgm (69Nm) @ 7750rpm,
it makes for a smooth riding v-twin with still some punch.


... more to come...
