Ducati has unveiled the new Monster SP (Sport Production). It is a more track-focused version of its sporty middleweight naked, the Monster.
The Monster SP gets a host of mechanical changes to suit its track-focused character, including, but not limited to, fully adjustable Ohlins suspension, Brembo Stylema calipers and a homologated Termignoni slip-on exhaust.
There is a whole lot that has changed over the standard Monster. Ducati has gone through the entire bike and shaved off 2 kilos from its kerb weight, which means the Monster SP tips the scales at 186kg fully fuelled up (188kg for the standard Monster). This has been achieved due to the implementation of superior, and lighter, componentry in the form of a lithium-ion battery, a steering damper and a homologated Termignoni slip-on exhaust. The Monster SP also comes shod with the Pirelli Diablo Rosso 4 tires, same as on the recently launched Ducati Streetfighter V2.
