Ducati Monster 696 Motorcycle - Street (2008-2014)

The Ducati Monster 696, produced from 2008 to 2014, is a renowned naked motorcycle celebrated for its excellent balance of performance and daily practicality. It features an air-cooled, L-Twin (90° V-twin) Desmodromic engine with a 696 cc displacement. Throughout its production, the Monster 696 maintained a consistent core design, with no significant mid-cycle generation changes or major engine overhauls. The primary distinction among models was the availability of an Anti-lock Braking System (ABS) as an option, which created a variant of the standard model. While minor updates like potential changes in front fork suppliers (e.g., Showa to Marzocchi) may have occurred, these did not constitute a new generation. The 696 engine itself was an evolution introduced at the model's launch in 2008, not a change during its run. FAQ:
