Nice bike. I never owned a Monster, but FWIW I had a 2002 Ducati 998 monoposto for years. Blood red with the white monoposto number boards. 998R ECU chip and full termingnoni exhaust. Semi-reliable electrical system. Ridiculous maintenance schedule and costs. But man that engine! That bike hauled and cornered like it was on rails.How many Monster owners are there on here? I would have never suspected. This year marks my 50th in the saddle - no offs yet.
0-100 in the 5s - if you can launch it properly (I don't dare). It's basically a huge engine with a motorcycle attached to it.
Sold it and regret it every day. Often find myself thinking where she is and whether she misses me as much as I miss her. I know it sounds weird, but if you've ever owned a dry-clutch Ducati, or any Ducati for that matter, you'd understand completely.
