2007 Ducati Monster S2R 800

A GRAND ENTRANCE TO THE SR SERIES
Those who wish to enter the Monster family with a bigger bang, both in terms of styling and performance, need look no further than the S2R 800.

This entry to the high performance SR series Monsters features the exclusive APTC system, ensuring maximum safety on extreme rides thanks to the slipper-clutch action when down-changing. The system also makes city riding much more comfortable because of the reduced clutch lever effort. Its Euro 3 compliant, air-cooled, 800 L-Twin Desmo engine delivers sports-level performance, yet is balanced, reliable and easy to tame, thanks to the racing-derived electronic fuel injection system and computer controlled engine management.

Good news for new riders required to ride a power-limited motorcycle: The S2R 800 is available in a 25Kw power-limited version, in accordance with European Commission standards, enabling even new riders to experience Monster SR style.

Features and Benefits:

THE EVOLUTION OF THE SPECIES
The Monster is the original ‘naked’ motorcycle. Launched to rave reviews in the early 1990s, it has become a cult. Today, more than ever, it is the bike of choice for top designers, Hollywood stars and Formula One racing drivers.

YOUR OWN UNIQUE STREET FIGHTER
The Monster is a ‘street fighter’ that offers outstanding sport bike performance together with a style that has often been imitated but never equalled. The Ducati Accessories catalogue, which is included with each bike, is bursting with ideas to customise your bike and improve its performance.

From beautifully airbrushed fuel tanks, carbon fibre parts and accessories machined from solid aluminium to high performance exhaust systems and hundreds of special parts, the Ducati Accessories catalogue has something to make each and every Monster unique.

The Monster family offers a choice of air or liquid-cooled, 2 and 4 valve Desmo engines. All models boast Superbike-derived Trellis frames, fuel injection and braking and suspension systems that are direct results of our experience in racing.
