Ducati Monster 1200 S 2020
A Ducati Monster gera uns impressionantes 147 cv e uns potentes 124 Nm de binário a partir do cilindro duplo Testastretta de 1200 cc refrigerado a água. Isto significa que está mais do que bem motorizado em qualquer situação na estrada rural! O conceito global de um peso total de 213 kg, em combinação com a suspensão Öhlins de alta qualidade e os sistemas de assistência de topo, fazem da máquina uma naked bike quase perfeita. O design clássico e intemporal aliado a componentes modernos fazem desta beleza da Italo uma "dica privilegiada" em tempos de 200 cv + hiper motos naked! Há que fazer pequenos compromissos com a proteção contra o vento e com a alavanca de velocidades. Este último leva algum tempo a habituar-se.
