Ducati Monster 1200 [2018-2019] Summary
The Monster brand has always been a symbol of raw power and style for the Ducati brand. The Monster brand had a couple of low displacement motorcycle as well, however, over the last few years Ducati has slowly and steadily discontinued those bikes but introduced newer ones as well. The Monster 1200 is one of them.
The Monster 1200 retains the traditional design lines of the smaller Ducatis. But, the engineers at Ducati have given this Monster a different kind of finesse and style. The nicely sculpted fuel tank, round headlight flanked by the forks and dual exhaust makes the Ducati Monster 1200 stand out from the crowd.
The Monster 1200 is powered by a 1200cc Testatstretta liquid-cooled engine that produces 133bhp at 8750rpm and peak torque of 118Nm at 7250rpm. This engine is mated to a six-speed gearbox that transfers power to the rear wheel via a chain drive. The bike is equipped with a slipper clutch to take care of the performance needs.
The Ducati Safety Pack comes as standard with the Monster 1200. This safety pack comes with an ABS system and an eight-level Ducati Traction Control (DTC). DTC levels are factory pre-set in each of the three riding modes, but can be individually customised and saved to suit the rider. The new Monster 1200 is equipped with the 1199 Panigale inspired full-TFT instrument panel. The display's configuration is variable and automatically adapts to variations in environmental light, also changing according to the selected riding mode.
The Ducati Monster 1200 is sold in India as a completely-built-up (CBU) unit, which comes from Ducati’s home factory in Italy. The Monster 1200 is sold alongside the more powerful Monster 1200S in India.

My dream bike
6 years ago
Puneet Choudhary
It was a great experience for me to buy this monster as it was my dream from my childhood to own a ducati i bought it from ducati jaipur and this bike changed my whole perspective about bikes because it's not just a bike it's a jet it feels like a monster in front of my old pulsar it feels great works great and looking best of all .But despite these all good things it's hard to run the bike on long trip on highway as it doesn't protect us from the blasting wind exposure and it exhaust turns to bluish yellow after a long ride
