Ducati Monster 1200 S 2020

Ducati Monster 1200 S 2020

The Ducati Monster generates a whopping 147 hp and a powerful 124 Nm of torque from the 1200 cc water-cooled Testastretta twin cylinder. This means you are more than just well motorised in every situation on the country road! The overall concept of a light ready-to-ride total weight of 213 kg in combination with high-quality Öhlins suspension and top assistance systems makes the machine an almost perfect naked bike. Classic, timeless design paired with modern components make this Italo beauty an "insider tip" in times of 200 hp + hyper naked bike rockets! Small compromises have to be made with the wind protection and the quickshifter. The latter takes a little getting used to.

147 hp High-performance power unit with plenty of torque even at low revs

Fantastic electronic equipment, DTC, DWC, RbW and and and...

Driving modes and assistance systems are freely configurable

High-quality chassis and great seating position

Very coherent and harmonious overall concept - agile and manoeuvrable! Emotional Italo beauty!

The quickshifter requires a bit of sensitivity until you get the hang of it

wind load on the upper body increases noticeably from 130 km/h

a steering damper in the S variant would have been the icing on the cake

Ducati Panigale V2 S 2025

Ducati Panigale V2 S 2025

Ducati has fully achieved its goal of building a supersport bike that is very easy to ride. With its extremely light handling, low weight and easy-to-control engine, the new V2 Panigale is a real joy to ride, especially on technically demanding tracks. The big highlights are the late braking points and the tight cornering radii, which can be maintained even at high cornering speeds. The slightly lower power almost makes up for the weight. The new Panigale V2 S therefore offers a significant improvement compared to its predecessor, especially for beginners, and, contrary to the well-known saying "power is everything", will probably help inexperienced riders to achieve better lap times due to its lightness. The little Panigale will bring a smile to the face of even performance-accustomed superbikers. Ducati has achieved many plus points, especially for use on country roads. With the new Panigale, the Italians have brought out a toned-down version and, with a much more comfortable riding position, are clearly focussing on road suitability and beginner-friendliness. This is also emphasised by the fact that the V2 is available in an A2 version. In conjunction with the reduced prices, the V2 Panigale thus also comes into the range for sharp computers. A Panigale for beginners, who would have thought it?
