Carefully ‘leaked’ spy shots show a Ducati Monster with what looks like a 1198cc testastretta 11º power plant. It could conceivably be the new 821cc engine that debuted in the Ducati Hypermotard but to our eye the chunkier engine size and thick looking headers lead us to conclude its the larger 150bp plus engine this time around.
Until these photos broke cover the new version of the Monster has always been air-cooled with the most powerful 100hp version of the Desmodue power plant in the Monster 1100EVO.
