    I bought one last year. The Urban setting works well for in-town commutes. Touring works great for long distance, provided you don't open the throttle too much. Sport mode is obviously for the full range of power and speed. One of my favorite traits of this bike is the customization of each mode. You can down-torque it; turn on or off features; and otherwise use it as a training bike or an advanced bike based on the customization. Sports mode as well as in any other mode, when in high speeds, this bike eats up fuel fast. I travel nearly 200 miles on one tank however, while in Touring mode and lose about twenty miles or so in Sports mode when riding long distances. Is it the best for long distances? No. It does feel safer than the bikes I have ridden int eh past when it comes to maneuverability and escaping dangerous situations. I love my Monster and while I'm sure there are better bikes out there, when you bond with a bike, you stand by it. This is mine for life!

      100%. I'm loving mine so far as well. The flickability of this bike is insane and the L-twin has the punch when you need it at throughout the rev range.

    That's what people want mate@ more power less weight. The scambler is now the bike for city and you have diavel for cruising around. This montser is the best as it wears different hats a beginner bike on urban mode and super fun middle weight naked at sport.

    I just got my first Monster. It's a 2013 Monster 796 that I rode down from Northern AZ to Southern AZ. Having never ridden a Ducati and only Japanese bikes, the trip down from the Mountains was one of the most exhilarating experiences. Instinctively I started using the clutch to tame the bike and the bike will warn you to keep it revved even at 80mph lol.
    I thought I purchased a bike that needed work, but looking at reviews it's completely normal for a Monster. I would not change it, the Monster requires your complete attention at all times, sad this isn't the case with the newer Monsters.

    I just bought this bike, and at the beginning I was really close to return it, after the second ride, it made me change my mind, and I will keep it, I love the bike, all thanks to a video with the full termignoni exhaust the bike wakes up like a monster really.

  • @matt2wheels

    Great review and sum up Scott. Last time I was shopping around for bikes I really wanted a Monster. Especially liked the 821 Monster. Had 2 test rides on that, loved it. Then had a chance to ride the 1200 Monster, the stock one, not the S and boy that bike but a huge grin on my face, it was angry all the time. Both these previous gen Monsters were absurdly fun. Ended up buying a BMW R1200R in the end though as I needed more luggage space. Not regretting my decision by any means, but have to admit the Monster is a more fun bike. Then took out this current gen Monster for a test ride because why not. I heard all the opinions about it not being a proper monster and all and had to see it for myself. And indeed, the experience was very much how you described it. Plenty of power, very precise and scalpel like. Also more comfortable than the previous Monsters I think. Quick shifter I found pretty decent (coming from the beemer, it's no surprise). I also found the bike very light, small and agile compared to the previous gen Monsters I tried. Overall, a very decent bike. But yes, compared to the MT09 I tried, it's not much different other than the badge. And I'd say the 890 Duke and the Triumph Street Triple both have more character than this Ducati. Interestingly, it went from the most fun and flavourful bike of the bunch to the level of the most bland one, the MT09. That's not to say these are not excellent bikes, both the Duc and the MT are great middle weight nakeds, but they don't have that aspirational feel to them. Which is a shame especially for the Monster. In my eyes, it went from coveted forever bike for many, to the first bike well off people buy when they wanna get onto two wheels. And I get it, this latter is probably a better target market, but the tame Monster is a loss for the motorcycle community.

  • @matto108

    Thanks for your video Scott, I always enjoy your content. So I'm a new rider and recently bought this machine. I needed to start with a 35kW bike (I'm based in Switzerland, and going for my full A licence now). I was also looking at the Tuono Factory and Triumph Trident. In the end I went with the Monster for a few reasons (aesthetics, higher power once restrictions are removed, Ducati badge, ergos for my own height & weight, and of course the emotional response it gave me!). As a new rider I wasn't comparing this to older versions of the Monster (which I also really like); I just experienced it for what it is today rather than what it was before. I have to say I am having an absolute blast on this bike (even on the lower 35kW version). It's huge fun on the open road, at higher speeds, and on twisties. Super responsive, tight and light. I don't feel like it could get away from me too much. I also agree that it's not really a city bike; fine in small towns etc. but I would not like to be using this in heavy traffic and low speeds. It runs hot too so if you live in a warmer climate in heavy traffic... yuck. And although it lacks the iconic trellis frame of yesteryear, this bike still turns heads believe me! I went for Aviator Grey with red rims & Termignoni exhaust (street, not track) - it's badass. I love this bike and am sure many other riders like me will too. Ride safe guys!

    Same engine in my Multi V2S, just had my first service and still amazed it’s a 937cc engine with ‘only’ 115hp, feels a lot quicker. A lot of fun despite moving ‘down’ from a 1250GS. The engine does prefer the mid range above 4000 but that’s not a problem, to be honest I love it and there’s more than enough punch for the road, in fact on a country ‘B’ road there isn’t much better.

    • @NothingToProve
      @NothingToProve  2 года назад +1

      1100 Evo is the best Monster in the last 30 years, imho. The best looking is the 1993 I showed in the video. Sure you have to work on the 1993 Monster a little more but all bikes that old need extra care, just like I do as I age. I rode the 2011 1100 EVO back in 2018, loved it, today, I regret not buying it.

  • @conscious4895
    @conscious4895 2 года назад +13

    Very interesting and novel take on the new Monster, Scott. I appreciated that you reviewed the DNA of the Monster and not just the look of the new frame as opposed to the trellis frame, as in most reviews. I wonder if Ducati missed the opportunity to turn the Monster into a neo-retro design, rather than into a naked bike. The trellis frame was not only a visual cue but also created a feel and a vibe to the bike. Why not update the trellis frame to maintain that feel/vibe and create competition for Speed Twin, Z900Rs, XSR900, etc rather than make it into a watered down Streetfighter?

      Definitely agree with you. Probably for cost though, because casting is more cost effective than welding up a frames in jigs. Also they really wanted to stiffen up the frame. The old trellis frame was so beautiful.

    Good honest review Scott. Thanks. I'm riding a 2020 Street Triple R (thanks for the recommendation). Fine in traffic, you can cruise at 50 kph in 5th and just quick shift down if traffic appears. 12-15kph in 1st idling at 1000 rpm. I like the idea of a Ducati but maybe the Monster won't be the bike for round town? Maybe not worth trading??

    Good Morning Scott,
    I’ve just checked at Becker-Tiemann’s... they still have the anniversary model you spoke of.
    Suggest go and buy it and keep it.Think you deserve a keeper too
    You’ve cost me a bit of money over the years... ( For which I’m glad 😃 ) I’ve mentioned the K1600 B in the past but last year a GSA 1250 joined my collection too ( rally hp colours).
    Your review of the monster is accurate.
    Last year I looked at the new model and felt they’d made a mistake by omitting the Trellis frame, so opted for a pre owned 2016 model 1200R ( the air cooled evo’s weren’t available at the time on the pre owned market where we live.
    It’s a fantastic bike. I’m not interested In lap times... the aesthetics and rider feel are what matters.
    Motorcycles are generally an emotive purchase and I think Ducati may have made a mistake.
    Perhaps they’ll relaunch the trellis frame one day... and call it “ Monster Classic “
    Just watched Miguel Galluzzi’s video again on why he called it Monster in the first place ( great vid)
    Hope Ducati watch your channel too.
    Anyways keep on keeping on. Thank you for your continued efforts in making RUclips videos.
    Kind regards
    Tibor

    • @NothingToProve
      @NothingToProve  2 года назад +1

      Well, the RS looks better imho. But the Ducati will probably go faster in a corner, simply because it is lighter and feels lighter than the RS. But I think I'd take the RS over this now that they've dropped the trellis frame and single sided swing arm...etc. It no longer looks like a Monster, rumor has it that Ducati will make a "Classic" Monster in a few years, brining back all the classic design cues that made the monster iconic.
      So get the RS now and then when Ducati makes the classic monster, trade in the RS for the classic monster! 😁🤞

Now, keep in mind, that the 2019 figure includes both the 821 and 1200 model (couldn't find separate numbers). Seems to me, like Ducati's decision wasn't half bad.

    The Monster was in an weird position of competition with either the retros or the sport nakeds. Ducati could have taken it to either extreme, it seems they went all in on competing with the 900cc naked segment. The scramblers fill the retro segment, but as you mentioned, it is strange that they have the streetfighter v2 in the 900cc mix as well.

    The new Ducati looks like a Japanese bike. I would pay more for the character of the Italian flare. I paid more for my Superduke 1290 for the cool factor.

      I don't agree with that. The Japanese motorcycles nowadays all look like autobots (transformers) on two wheels while the monster looks more like a modern classic bike.

    Looks like my plan to keep my 2005 Monster is going to be the better choice, good. I haven't ever considered getting rid of it since I first started riding it a number of years ago. But I will be adding a sibling, perhaps a Multistrada 1260S. We'll see what next year brings.

    You gave the supersport a glowing review and this a negative review. They share the same engine and alot of other components. 🤔

    • @NothingToProve
      @NothingToProve  Год назад

      This has nothing to do with the Supersport (they are two totally different bikes in two totally different groups) and everything to do with the history of the Monster, that created the naked group as we know it today. They were unique, different, now they are the same as every other naked bike. That's what's sad. If you don't understand the history of the Monster, then take a look and inform yourself and if you do you'll probably love the Monster for what it is and how different it was from any other bike you can buy. Today, well, it's just another naked bike. Sad. Is todays Monster a good bike, yes, is it a Monster? Nope!
      take care,
      Scott

    as a monster 821 owner, i am a bit disappointed by the engine: it has the same issue as my bikes engine, its quite rough below 4k rpm.
    i would have thought that being considerably bigger (126cc more) but with the same power it would have at least been smoother.
    i'm sure the suspension is better, but i wouldn't say it's worth getting the new monster over the 821 considering the price difference.
