Ducati Monster 2023

Podemos sempre discutir sobre o aspeto e a falta de um quadro de treliça, mas a Monster atual é tudo menos feia. Basicamente, seria uma excelente naked bike para o dia a dia, com uma ergonomia agradável e um sistema de travagem que não surpreende nem mesmo os inexperientes. O chassis bastante macio também pode ser considerado um compromisso aceitável, mas para uma Ducati é bastante surpreendente que pelo menos a forquilha dianteira não tenha sido afinada um pouco mais apertada. Infelizmente, o carismático motor bate forte em baixas rotações e, portanto, só mostra seu maravilhoso caráter V2 na estrada rural. Em suma, no entanto, isto reflecte muito bem a imagem geral da Monster: uma Ducati típica que também é boa para a condução diária em termos de chassis e travões.
