A Monster Awakens On September 14th

Ducati is all set to release the chains off its tamed untamed beast, the Monster 1200R. This would be Ducati's third offering in the Monster 1200 range following the 1200 and 1200S. Powering the 1200 and 1200 S is an 1198cc, Testastretta, L-Twin Desmodromic heart that produces 135 bhp and 145 bhp respectively. Ducati will officially launch the model R on September 14th as per the press release issued by the company.







Unlike the earlier Monsters, the 1200 R will get an improved design and gets top-of-the-line materials being used. One example of this would be the red contrast stitching on the seats, as well as a Monster 1200 R emblem embedded on it. Distinctly enough, Ducati has given an 'R' embellishment on the side of the front cowl. Evidently, the R badging should mean that the highest power out of the lot would belong to the 1200 R, and we estimate the power spewed out to be at over 160 bhp. Much characterizing a real monster. This will also be Ducati's first offering for the year 2016, meaning it will be available only by 2016. Prices, however, are yet to be announced but will be updating on the same.
