NEW COLOURS FOR MONSTER 696
18 February 2008 - Ducati

Ducati red’,‘pearl white’ and ‘matte-black’ or ‘dark’

Following the world unveiling at the Milan Motorcycle Show and just weeks away from the first deliveries to showrooms around the world, the new Monster 696 reveals its three exciting colour schemes.

In addition to the ‘Ducati red’, originally presented in November 2007, the Monster 696 will also be available in the new ‘pearl white’ and traditional ‘matte-black’ or ‘dark’ from April 2008.

‘Pearl white’, which already features on the highly successful Superbike 848, emphasizes the muscular lines of the Monster 696, contrasting sharply with the seat, sub-frame and Hybrid-Trellis frame. The ‘dark’ version demonstrates how the Monster silhouette remains totally uncompromised by centralising the bike’s volumes and masses. Both colours are complemented perfectly with black wheels and frames.

The Ducati Monster 696 is the next generation naked and the final word in urban excitement. Ride the 696 around your favourite downtown routes in relaxed style or, when the spirit moves you, unleash its dark side to deliver more naked performance than ever before.

Refined style and design are the clear motivations behind the new Monster and the continued perfection of the Desmo engine ensures that its ‘saint and sinner’ image will impress any rider. A comfortable and confidence-inspiring chassis combine with the famously smooth and powerful Ducati L-Twin engine to provide the most enjoyable riding experience. The balance of new technologies expressed in stylishly finished materials is shaped around the original cool Monster heritage.

Maintaining the unique style and character built on 15 years of world-wide success, the Monster now moves forward into a new era.
