Ducati India has updated its portfolio with the launch of the new Monster BS6. This new model from the Italian brand replaces the Monster 821 in the company’s portfolio and packs several styling, mechanical, and feature upgrades over its predecessor. The new Ducati Monster BS6 is available in two variants – Standard and Plus. The Plus variant further benefits from a flyscreen and seat cowl as standard.
Styling revisions bring a sleeker design along with an oval headlamp at the front, a muscular fuel tank, sharp tail section, and single-sided twin exhausts. Ducati has also revised the ergonomics with a repositioned handlebar and footpegs. The handlebar sits closer to the rider while the footpegs are lower than before. Weight-saving measures, such as the new frame, lighter aluminium swingarm, and wheels help the new Monster BS6 shed 4.5kg over its predecessor.
The mechanical specifications on the Monster BS6 comprise a 937cc, Testastretta L-twin, liquid-cooled engine that makes 111bhp of power at 9,250rpm and 93Nm of peak torque at 6,500rpm. The motor is mated to a six-speed gearbox that benefits from an anti-slip clutch and quickshifter as standard.
The feature list on the new Monster BS6 includes full-LED lighting and a Bluetooth-ready 4.3-inch TFT display. The Bluetooth module is available as an optional extra. The electronic aids include three riding modes (Sport, Urban, and Touring), wheelie control, traction control, cornering ABS, and launch control.
The hardware comprises 43mm upside-down front forks and a preload-adjustable rear mono-shock to handle the shock absorption tasks. The anchoring duties are performed by 320mm twin discs with Brembo M4.32 monobloc four-piston callipers at the front and a single 245mm rotor with Brembo two-piston calliper at the back
