2000 DUCATI MONSTER 900

 

 Concept dates back to the 1960’s with the Scrambler model, reinvented the Naked Motorcycle segment, with its greatest customization potential, and widest array of product variation.  Upright riding position, the Monster has a strong personality and is positioned as “style icon”.  Same sport characteristics as other Ducati’s, but has unique design characteristics, absence of fairing allows engine configuration to be admired by riders and passer-bys alike.  Lightest bike within the Ducati Family, and has the highest purchase frequency of any of the Ducati families
