2026 Ducati Monster

Ducati has introduced the all-new Monster 2026, a complete redesign built around an 890 cc V2 engine. This twin-cylinder unit, equipped with variable valve timing, delivers 111 hp at 9,000 rpm and 91.1 Nm of torque at 7,250 rpm, with more than 80% of torque available between 4,000 and 10,000 rpm.

The chassis features an aluminum monocoque frame, paired with a twin-sided swingarm inspired by the Panigale V4 and a rear subframe constructed from a combination of steel and reinforced polymer, keeping the dry weight down to 175 kg.

Suspension duties are handled by Showa components, including a 43 mm upside-down fork and a preload-adjustable monoshock. Braking is managed by a front Brembo system with 320 mm discs, a radial master cylinder, and M4.32 calipers.

Rich in technology for its class, the Monster 2026 features ride-by-wire electronics and a 6-axis IMU. It will be offered in Ducati Red and Iceberg White color schemes, in both standard and Monster+ versions—the latter adding a windscreen and passenger seat cover. Both versions will also be available in a 35 kW A2-compliant configuration.
