editions are finished in Ducati red, with bronze frames. Ensuring an
attractive colour option for everyone, the entire family is further
customizable with the innovative and unique Monster Art program.

DUCATI MONSTER 20th ANNIVERSARY EDITIONS
20 years of iconic style
First shown at the Cologne motorcycle show back in 1992, the innovative
Ducati Monster design went into production in 1993, creating the modern
"naked" segment and becoming the Ducati's top selling model and world-famous
icon of design. Over quarter of million Monsters later, the Italian
manufacturer now celebrates the monumental success of the model with a
special edition Monster 696 20th Anniversary, Monster 796 20th Anniversary
and Monster 1100EVO 20th Anniversary.

The Anniversary edition's striking livery of red with bronze frame is
further complemented with gold-coloured brake callipers and front disc
carriers and, on 1100EVO, gold-coloured brake and clutch master cylinders.

While the headlamp support has a chrome finish, the triple clamp, fork
bottoms and swingarms are all finished in grey.

Further model-defining features are champagne coloured fork bodies and a
custom finished seat with Monster '93-style fabric recalling some of the
features of the model's first introduction 20 years ago. The retro "Ducati
1986" font is used on the single-seat cover and for the retro-style "Ducati"
on the fuel tank which, unlike standard 696, 796 and 1100EVO, also has the
centre panel of the tank finished in red to recreate an authentic feeling of
the original Monster. The Anniversary model is also equipped with the

20th Anniversary
90s style wing mirrors
The celebration of Monster's twentieth anniversary is all about the details.
The Monster 20th Anniversary models feature the original wing mirrors, with
their unmistakable 90s look, the same ones that were fitted of the first
Monster.

20th Anniversary
The Monster has revolutionized the world of motorcycling, becoming more than
just a simple motorcycle: it's a way of life, it's what makes its riders
feel unique. Its customised versions owned by 250,000 enthusiasts have made
it a true and proper icon that transcends time. Twenty years after its
birth, Ducati celebrates this symbol of style and personality, presenting a
unique model: the very first one. An unmistakable style coupled with
latest-generation performance: here's the Monster 20th Anniversary, the
motorcycle that continues to write history.

Original livery
The Monster 20th Anniversary models have the same colours with which the
Monster 900 was presented in Cologne in the autumn of 1992: the tank and
seat cover rigorously in Ducati Red are matched with the bronze-coloured
frame; the vintage style is completed by the champagne-coloured fork
sleeves, by the golden Brembo braking system and by the chrome finish of the
headlight. The many light-grey details of the engine and chassis are also a
tribute to the first version of the Monster.

Logo Ducati 1986
The Ducati Monster 20th Anniversary series is enhanced by the original style
of the Ducati logo introduced in 1986, which appears in clear view on the
tank, along with the name Monster, it too with a markedly vintage taste.

The Ultimate Monster
The Monster 1100EVO perfectly mixes high engine power, a Ducati Safety Pack
(ABS + DTC) contained of advanced electronics, a new sports concept and
superior riding pleasure to refine the original Monster formula, which makes
it an icon of the naked segment.

DUCATI MONSTER 1100EVO
Monster evolution
The Monster 1100EVO further enhances the Monster family's defining concepts
of functionality, style and sport with an evolution of the flagship model.
Taking its name from the Desmodue Evoluzione engine, which delivers a
Monster milestone 100hp, the 1100EVO rolls out with the latest generation
exhaust system, comfort-enhanced ergonomics, Marzocchi front suspension and
refined tail-end in addition to the Ducati Safety Pack (DSP) of ABS brake
system and 4-level Ducati Traction Control (DTC). The Monster 1100EVO was
the first ever Monster to be equipped with DTC.

Ducati's application of the "EVO" treatment now runs deep throughout the
Ducati range and its introduction to the ever-improving Monster family was
inevitable. It completes a stylish family of lifestyle motorcycles with high
attention to user-friendly and safety-conscious detail, while ensuring the
Monster's cult status as a design icon of hand-built, naked motorcycles
remains as authentic as ever.

The ultimate Monster
The Monster 1100EVO took everything great about the new generation Monster
family and added an evolution of upgrades that took the Monster concept to
the next level. The Desmodue Evoluzione engine is Ducati's first 2-valve
motor to hit the 100hp mark and its super-smooth power delivery is sure to
delight riders the world over. Add to that the latest generation,
power-enhancing exhaust system with low level cannon-style, vertically
stacked silencers that leave the tail-end looking sharp and minimalistic and
the
introduction of DSP, consisting of the user-friendly, 4-level DTC that
supports the ABS system in enhanced rider control, and it's plain to see
that this really is an "evolution" model. But it doesn't end there.

Quality by design
Part of Ducati's approach to Quality improvement is to blend owner feed-back
into the design process of new models, and the Monster 1100EVO is an iconic
example. Ergonomics were totally revised with the a reshaped seat and
bar-risers for the rider and a rear sub-frame ready to accept the
confidence-inspiring Ducati Performance grab-rail kit for the passenger,
whose comfort is further enhanced with a low-slung, rerouted exhaust system.
Add to these enhancements rubber-mounted rear indicators and a compact
number plate holder with LED lighting, and it is clear that Ducati listened
to every last detail.

The 'less-is-more' philosophy behind all Monsters underlines Ducati's
continuous pursuit of genuinely compact, high performance motorcycles and
with the EVO's dry weight at 169kg (373lb) it represents the lightest, most
compact bike in its category.

The Monster 1100EVO is the result of constant evolution in design and
technology. The powerful and breathtaking top-of-the-range model boasts
attractive ergonomics and presents pure style and charisma, while preserving
the essence of the original naked bike concept. The EVO design perfectly
balances sports performance, stunning looks and safety-conscious riding
pleasure and its seductive lines are the product of a Ducati philosophy
where form and function combine to create the quintessential naked bike.

Ducati Safety Pack (DSP)
The Monster 1100EVO was the first model to introduce the Ducati Safety Pack
(DSP), configured to enhance rider control on Ducati's lifestyle models. DSP
consists of the ultra-dependable Brembo-Bosch ABS braking system and
user-friendly 4-level Ducati Traction Control (DTC). Both systems are
supplied as original equipment and complement each other to provide a major
contribution to safer motorcycling.

Accessible from the left-hand switchgear and displayed on the digital
instrumentation, the DTC system offers a choice of four levels, each one
programmed with an increasing level of interaction graded from one to four.
While level four administers a confidence-building, high level of
interaction from the system by activating upon the slightest amount of
wheel-spin, level one offers a lesser amount of intervention for more
competent, sport-oriented riders. When the level is selected and DTC
activated, the level is displayed on the instrumentation.



Front and rear wheel sensors then compare speed differential to sense when
rear traction is being broken (wheel-spin) and DTC decides the best
combination of two different types of instant electronic adjustment,
calculated with data supplied from multiple sources. The first 'soft' stage
of system interaction is executed by high speed software that makes instant
electronic adjustment to the ignition timing, administering varying amounts
of ignition retardation to reduce the engine's torque.

If the DTC software detects that the first 'soft' stage of system
interaction is inadequate to control the wheelspin, it continues to
administer ignition retardation and, in addition, instructs the engine ECU
to initiate a pattern of constantly increasing injection cuts until, if
necessary, full injection cut. During all stages of interaction, the two
warning lights - normally used to signify the over-rev limiter - illuminate
to indicate that DTC is being applied. As soon as the system recognises the
gradual return of equal wheel speeds, it incrementally re-establishes normal
power delivery. This seamless interaction is key to the super-smooth
operation of the system and represents a considerable increase in
performance safety during mid-corner acceleration.

The Brembo-Bosch ABS developed by Ducati combines with top quality brake
system components to deliver outstanding performance and confident control.
Designed to reduce the risk of wheel-lock under heavy braking or when
braking in low grip conditions, the system reads wheel speed data from
phonic wheel sensors to detect potential wheel lock. If the wheel speed
differential falls below a specific safety limit, the control unit
immediately reduces the brake system pressure to the appropriate calliper to
avoid wheel lock.

The pressure reduction on each individual braking circuit is activated by
electronically controlled valves, which then close as the wheel speed
differential moves away from a locking scenario.

The Desmodue 1100 Evoluzione
The lightweight, L-Twin stands at the pinnacle of more than three decades of
Desmo air-cooled development and its torquey power delivery has excited
riders worldwide. Its latest evolution combined with the Monster's airbox
capacity and latest exhaust configuration marks a milestone for Ducati's
2-valve engine as the first to reach 100hp.

The 1100cc Desmodue Evoluzione power unit continues to use a bore and stroke
of 98 x 71.5mm, but its long list of refinements have boosted its power to
100hp (73.5kW) at 7500rpm with 76lb-ft (10.5kgm) of torque at 6000rpm giving
it smooth power delivery from city-like low rpm to exhilarating open road
performance at redline.

The 1100's crankcases are vacuum cast using Vacural® technology, a process
that achieves significant weight saving and ensures consistent wall
thickness and increased strength. In addition to the magnesium alternator
cover, the 1100 has a lightweight crankshaft assembly, using an 848-style
Superbike flywheel and weight-saving rare-earth magnets for the generator
assembly.

Power gains came not only from the crankshaft assembly, but also from an
evolution of the top-end of the Desmodue power unit. The cylinder head,
which introduced enhanced lubrication and cooling performance, also has a
special inlet port shape for optimum flow and a combustion chamber shaped
for improved burn efficiency. This improved efficiency included an 11.3:1
compression ration and the change to a single spark per cylinder ignition
now managed by high-speed Siemens electronics.

Ensuring a sufficient feed and maximum volumetric efficiency to the high
compression set-up are equally high valve lift values, safely enabled by
Ducati's unique Desmodromic system, where valve closure is activated
mechanically. At high rpm it would be almost impossible for the valves to
follow the steep closure profiles of the cam lobes if they were relying upon
normal valve springs. With the Desmo system, the valves are closed
mechanically with the same accuracy as they are opened, enabling steep cam
profiles and
radical cam timings. This system is used on every single Ducati power unit
including the race-winning Superbike and Desmosedici GP engines.

The Monster 1100EVO uses a slipper-clutch specially designed for the "wet"
clutches of larger capacity engines. It features an oil bath system with
'slipper' function and super-light feel at the lever. Its design uses a
progressive self-servo mechanism that presses the plates together when under
drive from the engine, enabling the reduction of the clutch spring rates.
This results in a much lighter clutch lever at the handlebar, ideal in
traffic or long journeys. When the drive force is reversed (over-run), the
same mechanism reduces the pressure on the clutch plates, enabling them to
provide a race-like 'slipper' action which reduces the destabilizing effect
of the rear-end under aggressive down-shifting and provides a much smoother
feeling when closing the throttle or down-shifting under normal riding
conditions. An additional cush-drive damper mechanism also smoothes the
repeated transition from drive to over-run during stop-start traffic. The
clutch and alternator covers are finished in a sophisticated looking carbon
grey.



EVO exhaust
The latest generation exhaust system follows a revised 2-1-2 routing to
ensure the EVO's power-enhancing and efficient power delivery and dedicates
a lambda probe to each header to ensure precise fueling. While the stylish
cannon-style, vertically stacked silencers carry catalytic converters to
provide Euro 3 conformity, an electronically controlled mid-section valve
optimises exhaust pressures throughout the rev-range. The revised
positioning of the aluminium silencers leaves the rear-end of the Monster
looking sharp and minimalistic and ensures uncompromised passenger comfort.

1100 chassis
Exceptional handling, combined with 75.9lb-ft (10.5kgm) of torque from the
Desmo engine, results in a pure, adrenalin-filled ride and at just 169kg
(373lb), the Monster 1100EVO is the lightest bike in its class. The
lightweight aluminium sub-frame maintains visual continuity with the
single-sided swingarm and aluminium footrest hangers, which are rider and
passenger separated. The passenger footpeg hangers are designed to attach
directly to the rear sub-frame, which also accepts the passenger-friendly
grab-rail kit available from Ducati Performance. The footpegs and grab-rail
kit provide increased passenger riding comfort and further enhance the EVO's
stylish lines.

Fully adjustable 43mm Marzocchi forks and Sachs rising-rate rear suspension
unit, with adjustable spring pre-load and return damping, offer sufficient
personalisation to suit all riding styles and provide the perfect 'feel'.
The steeply angled rear unit compresses in a movement non-linear to the rear
swingarm radius, which achieves progressive characteristics, enables easy
access to the spring pre-load and rebound damping adjuster, and eliminates
the weight of any rocker-arm mechanism.

The beautifully shaped single-sided swingarm gives the Monster 1100EVO a
"pure sports" look while ensuring higher rigidity, reduced weight and
enhanced road holding. The swingarm is made in chill-cast aluminium,
achieving optimum mechanical characteristics while reducing final weight for
improved handling.

Stylish and lightweight aluminium alloy 10-spoke wheels reduce unsprung
weight and improve agility and are fitted with a 120/70ZR tyre at the front
and a 180/55ZR at the rear, both Pirelli Diablo Rosso II. The result is
lightweight, precise steering that is extremely responsive at all speeds
while giving the vehicle exceptional stability. The sports character of the
bike is further accentuated by aluminium tapered handlebars.

The power of the Monster 1100EVO can rely upon a best-in-category braking
system that provides excellent, precise and controllable braking
performance. The impressive Brembo system features radial pumps with
adjustable levers feeding four-piston radial callipers which grip twin 320mm
discs. The rear brake uses a 2-piston calliper operating on a 245mm disc. As
an integral component of the Ducati Safety Pack, ABS comes as standard
equipment on the Monster 1100EVO.

EVO colours
The Monster 1100EVO is available in two colour schemes of red - with a
racing-style white stripe along the centre of the front mudguard, tank and
single-seat cover - and red Trellis frame or black with both stripe and
frame in racing-grey. Both Monster colours use sporty looking black wheels
with short red pin-strip and can be further personalised from a choice of
additional liveries available within the Monster Art program.

The essence of naked
The Monster has revolutionized the world of motorcycling, becoming more than
just a simple motorcycle: it's a way of life, it's what makes its riders
feel unique. Its customised versions owned by 250,000 enthusiasts have made
it a true and proper icon that transcends time. Twenty years after its
birth, Ducati celebrates this symbol of style and personality, presenting a
unique model: the very first one. An unmistakable style coupled with
latest-generation performance: here's the Monster 20th Anniversary, the
motorcycle that continues to write history.

Key Features
Concept
The Ultimate Monster
The Monster 1100EVO perfectly mixes high engine power, a Ducati Safety Pack
(ABS + DTC) contained of advanced electronics, a new sports concept and
superior riding pleasure to refine the original Monster formula, which makes
it an icon of the naked segment.

Evolution of the design
The new Monster 1100EVO communicates the increased performance with a
rear-end more dynamic and sharp, thanks to low level cannon-style,
vertically stacked silencers placed on the right side. Even the new 10 spoke
rims with a design carried over from Streetfighter and 1198 want to stress
the evolved sports look of the new Monster. The sport-oriented separated
passenger pegs and the dynamic design of the license plate holder contribute
to minimalistic the bikes side profile. A wonderful touch of sportiness,
evocative of the racing environment, is the Ducati Corse Stripe which
proudly signs the fender, the fuel tank and the single seat cover.

Minimum weight, maximum fun
The Monster 1100EVO offers a greater enhanced driving pleasure. The
exceptional handling comes from a further reduced weight (169 kg dry
weight), combined with the new 100 hp engine Desmodue Evoluzione, the most
powerful 2-valve Ducati ever. Every single component has been created to
satisfy a Ducati riders needs and provide unrivalled agility and handling.
That is why Ducati engineers, designers and testers have aimed for the best
possible set-up and the Monster is able to ensure the best handling of all
naked bikes.



Less is Monster
The 'less-is-more' philosophy behind all Monsters underlines Ducati's
never-ending pursuit of genuinely compact, high performance motorcycles, but
these new models have succeeded in being even more 'pared down' than their
predecessors. Every single component has been redesigned and redeveloped so
now more than ever, form follows function. With any details detracting from
the Monster concept being eliminated, 'less-is-more' also means
'less-is-Monster'. Less weight plus more torque equals fun-filled riding.

Monster Story
In 1992 Ducati unveiled a new prototype that was to become an icon. Ducati's
creation awed the crowds and the world's media of that year's Cologne
International Motorcycle show. The 900 Monster was a motorcycle that created
a truly new niche - dramatically styled, minimalist in stature yet bristling
with innovative engineering solutions. The Monster's radical styling has
also provided the inspiration for an entire after-market sector specialising
in hot-rod parts for this legendary machine. For this reason, rarely do you
see two Monsters the same. This radical and refreshing design departure also
influenced other manufacturers but, as the old adage states: imitation is
the highest form of flattery... The Monster is characterised by a long and
successful history, by its introduction during the years of numerous
cylinders and uncountable colour options, but above all by a constant
technological evolution that this year brings us to the birth of the last
version: the Monster 1100EVO, "The Ultimate Monster".

Engine
Power & torque curves
The Monster 1100EVO delivers 100CV (73,5kW) @ 7500rpm and 10,5kgm (103Nm) @
6000rpm Compared with the previous Monster 1100, the new engine data
performance ensures a more exciting riding experience at high revs and a
super-smoother power delivery thanks to a more linear torque curve.

Desmodue Evoluzione
The Monster 1100EVO is powered by the Desmodue Evoluzione engine which is
the first two-valve Ducati to hit the 100 hp. Compared with the previous
1100 cc Twin cylinder air-cooled L Desmodromic, this new engine gives an
even greater adrenalin rush thanks to the superior power level at high revs
while a more linear torque curve ensures a super-smoother power delivery.
The 1100 cc Twin Desmodromic has been tuned in order to increase both
volumetric and combustion efficiency. The inlet ports and the combustion
chamber shape have been redesigned, while the new camshafts have an extreme
profile to provide an increased valve lift. The pistons are new too and
feature an high compression profile. To ensure high standards of reliability
the head cooling system has been revised with improved lubrication to
enhance the cooling performance.

Wet clutch
The Monster 1100EVO features a new wet clutch which ensures quiet operation
and long life. In addition, the progressive self-servo mechanism reduces the
lever effort at the handlebar and makes the Monster even more practical in
traffic. The Monster 1100EVO wet clutch works with a race-like slipper
system which reduces the destabilizing effect of the rear-end under
aggressive down-shifting, and compared with other wet clutch used so far by
Ducati, features an additional cush-drive damper mechanism which smoothes
the repeated transition from drive to over-run during stop-start traffic.

Vacural® crankcases
The two-valve engine on the Monster 1100EVO features a crankcase which
significantly reduces overall engine weight. They are produced using the
same innovative Vacural® technology that Ducati previously applied only to
Supersport models.
This method of production relies on vacuum die-casting, which improves the
quality of the casting by avoiding porosity, air pockets and oxidation. This
enables greater dimensional accuracy and higher ductility for the aluminium
alloy. Ducati designers have drawn upon the benefits of this innovative
process, redefining the conformation and thickness of the sides on the new
crankcase using finite element simulations (FEM) and tests, which resulted
in achieving the required reliability standards as well as attaining a
weight reduction of the crankcase.

Exhaust system
The Monster 1100EVO features a completely revised 2-1-2 routing exhaust
system with two aggressive low level cannon-style, vertically stacked
silencers placed on the right side, which give off in fullness the famous
sound of the Twin-cylinder Ducati engine. The new exhaust system, equipped
with tow Lambda probes and an electronically controlled valve, is a crucial
component in achieving the excellent torque and engine power, and a
fundamental style element used by the Ducati designers to emphasize the
superior performance of the new Monster 1100EVO.

Chassis
Marzocchi forks
The 43mm upside down fully adjustable Marzocchi forks offer sufficient
personalisation to suit all riding styles and provide that perfect feel.
The suspension set-up developed by Ducati testers is a perfect balance
between handling and driving pleasure under all conditions.

Lightweight 10-spoke wheels
The Monster 1100EVO is equipped with lightweight aluminum alloy wheels with
the new 10-spoke design. The new wheels reduce unsprung weight and
contributes to increase the agility and, with their sporty look, to stress
the superior performance. The front wheel (3,50 x 17) is equipped with a
120/70ZR tire, the rear (5,50 x 17) with a 180/55ZR tire. The result is a
light steering, reliable and sincere in their responses at all speeds,
giving the vehicle exceptional stability.

Single-sided swingarm
The beautifully shaped single-sided swingarm gives the Monster a tough
look while ensuring higher rigidity, reduced weight and enhanced road
holding. The swingarm is chill-cast using aluminium in its most noble form.
Gravity cast and heat treated, the component achieves the best mechanical
characteristics as well as reduced final weight for improved handling.

Sachs rear suspension
The Sachs rising-rate rear suspension unit offers adjustable spring pre-load
and return damping.
Using the proven cantilever' system, the steeply angled rear unit
compresses in a movement non-linear to the rear swingarm radius, thus
achieving a progressive action. This enables easy access to the spring
pre-load and rebound damping adjuster, while eliminating the weight of the
rocker-arm mechanism. The suspension set-up developed by the Ducati testers
is the perfect balance of handling and driving pleasure for all conditions.

Monster Trellis
An immensely strong but light tubular steel Trellis frame with aluminium
rear sub-frame is the visual and structural backbone of the Monster.
Delivering unparalleled rigidity with minimal mass, the chassis design is
pure Ducati in its ingenuity and simplicity. A separate, all aluminium
sub-frame saves weight and adds a pleasing continuity with the aluminium
footrest hangers and matte finished swingarm.

Ergonomics
With its slim waist and wide handlebars, the new Monster is the ideal bike
for any riding style, in the midst of city traffic and in the winding
curves. With a total steering angle of 64 degrees, an extremely intuitive
and ergonomic handle position, a tapered and deeply sculpted fuel tank, the
Monster offers the rider a comfortable and safe control of the vehicle at
all times. The Monster 1100EVO further improves comfort quality with a
comfort-enhancing new seat embellished with red stitching and 20 mm higher
bar-risers. The Monster 1100EVO also features a rear sub-frame ready to
support the confidence-inspiring Ducati Performance grab-rail kit for the
passenger. The suspension set-up developed by Ducati testers is the perfect
balance of handling and driving pleasure for all conditions.

Lightweight construction
The less-is-more philosophy behind all Monsters underlines Ducatis
never-ending pursuit of genuinely compact, high performance motorcycles, but
these new models have succeeded in being even more pared down than their
predecessors. The Monster 1100EVO goes further. The weight saving solutions
used by the Desmodue Evoluzione engine construction, such as the alternator
cover made in magnesium and the flywheel lightened of the Ducati 848EVO, in
combination with a lighter exhaust, reduce to 169kg the total dry weight
(-2kg compared to the Monster 1100).

Brembo brakes
The power and charisma of the new Monster 1100EVO can rely upon a
best-in-category braking system that provides excellent, precise and
controllable braking performance. The vigorous Brembo system is the direct
result of Ducati Corse racing experience, featuring radial pumps with
adjustable levers feeding four-piston radial callipers which grip twin 320
mm discs. The rear brake uses a 2-piston calliper operating on a 245mm disc.
Ducati has further improved this powerful braking system, adding as standard
content the ABS system which allows the best braking under any riding
situation.

Equipment
Ducati Safety Pack (DSP)
In developing the Monster 1100EVO attention has been paid not only to
performance enhancement, but also in ensuring both rider and passenger a
high level of safety in all driving conditions. This second goal has been
achieved by equipping the Ducati Monster 1100EVO with the Ducati Safety Pack
(DSP), which comes as standard along with the ABS system and the famous
Ducati Traction Control (DTC). This is the first time it has been available
on a Monster.

DTC
The Monster 1100EVO is the first two valve engine model to be equipped with
the state of the art Ducati Traction Control system (DTC). The Monster
1100EVO DTC system uses the same software logic developed and used by Ducati
Corse for their winning bikes in MotoGP and Superbike Championships. The
system offers a choice of four profiles, each one programmed with a
wheel-spin tolerance matched to progressive riding levels of skill graded
from one to four. While level four administers a confidence-building, high
level of interaction from the system by activating upon the slightest amount
of wheel-spin, level one offers a much higher tolerance and, therefore, much
less intervention for highly competent riders. The Monster 1100EVO comes
standard with the Ducati Safety Pack (DSP) which includes DTC + ABS.

ABS
The ABS system provides a major contribution towards active safety as it's
designed to reduce the risk of wheel-lock under panic braking or when
braking in low grip conditions. The Monster 1100EVO comes standard with the
Ducati Safety Pack (DSP) and includes DTC + ABS.

LED taillight
An LED rear light unit satisfies the minimalist, weight-saving design ethos
found throughout the Monster 696. The specially designed strip of LED are
enhanced by a special diffuser lens to deliver outstanding light clarity and
incredible longevity.
For the Monster 1100EVO, even the license plate light uses LED technology.

Headlight
The triple-parabola headlight on the Monster utilises the latest optical
technology and advanced construction techniques to provide an incredibly
compact lighting package. In spite of its compact size, the headlight throws
a broad and deep beam to provide excellent visibility and make night riding
safer. Viewed from the side, its discrete silhouette mimics the radical
shape of the fuel tank.

Empowering Controls
The Monster 1100EVO features radial pumps with adjustable levers on
beautifully shaped aluminium tapered handlebars

DDA ready
The instrument display also doubles as a control panel for the activation of
the Ducati Data Analyser (DDA) system, which is available as an accessory
from Ducati Performance. The bike has been built system-ready for the data
acquisition kit, which consists of special DDA software and a memory key
that slots into a plug under the seat. The same plug also doubles as the
connection for a handy new battery charger available as an accessory from
Ducati Performance.

Stopwatch
The digital display is programmed with a stopwatch function that, when
enabled, can be triggered by using the high-beam flash button and each
recorded time stored in a memory. After your journey or track session, the
times or lap times can be recalled from the memory and scrolled through by
using the instrumentation buttons on the left-hand switchgear.

2013 Ducati Monster 1100 EVO 20th Anniversary Features and Benefits
MONSTER FAMILY FEATURES
Monster frame
An immensely strong but light tubular steel Trellis frame with aluminium
rear sub-frame is the visual and structural backbone of all Monsters.
Delivering unparalleled rigidity with minimal mass, the frame design is pure
Ducati in its ingenuity and simplicity and enables a useful 64 degrees of
lock-to-lock steering travel.

The lightweight aluminium sub-frame maintains visual continuity with the
footrest hangers and swingarm, and is designed to accept a
passenger-friendly grab-rail kit available as an accessory from Ducati
Performance. The kit further enhances passenger ride comfort without
compromising the Monster's stylish lines.

Monster ABS
The 2013 Monster family offers all 696 and 796 models with optional
anti-lock braking system (ABS), while the 1100EVO and Monster Diesel has ABS
fitted as standard equipment.

Designed to reduce the risk of wheel-lock under heavy braking or when
braking in low grip conditions, the system reads wheel speed data from
phonic wheel sensors to detect potential wheel lock. If the wheel speed
differential falls below a specific safety limit, the control unit
immediately reduces the brake system pressure to the appropriate calliper to
avoid wheel lock. The pressure reduction on each individual braking circuit
is activated by electronically controlled valves, which then close as the
wheel speed differential moves away from a locking scenario.



Monster instrumentation
Looking clean and minimalist in true Monster style, the brightly illuminated
display provides all essential data by default, and even more by scrolling
with the left-hand switchgear. Data includes speed, revs, time, scheduled
maintenance, oil temperature, ABS status (when applicable), DTC status
(1100EVO and Monster Diesel only) and battery voltage, while warning lights
illuminate for oil pressure, fuel reserve, turn indicators, high beam and
neutral selection. In addition, the instruments present a reserve fuel trip,
immobiliser status and automatic light-off function after 60 seconds with
the key on as well as a memory to store lap times recorded by using the
high-beam flash button as a stopwatch.

For the Monster 1100EVO and Monster Diesel, the display also doubles as a
control panel for the 4-level Ducati Traction Control system included in the
Ducati Safety Package (DSP), in addition to the Ducati Data Analyser (DDA)
system, which is available as an accessory from Ducati Performance. All
Monsters are built "system-ready" for the data acquisition kit, which
consists of a special DDA software and memory key that slots into USB style
plug under the seat. The same plug also doubles as the connection for a
handy "battery maintainer" available as an accessory from Ducati
Performance.

Monster Desmo
The incredible valve performances of the Desmodue engine are made possible
because of Ducati's unique Desmodromic system, where valve closure is
activated mechanically. At high rpm it would be almost impossible for the
valves to follow the steep closure profiles of the cam lobes if they were
relying upon normal valve springs. With the Desmo system, the valves are
closed mechanically with the same accuracy as they are opened, enabling
steep cam profiles and radical cam timings. This system is used on every
single Ducati power unit including the race-winning Superbike and
Desmosedici GP engines.

Monster quality
Having more experience with twin-cylinder high performance engines than any
other manufacturer, the aircooled L-Twin remains central to Ducati's
philosophy of motorcycling. This experience, plus constant investment in
quality by design, advanced materials and engineering techniques has enabled
a distance between service intervals of 7,500 miles (12,000km) making Ducati
ownership even more enjoyable
