Ducati Revamps The Iconic Monster for 2021 - Cycle News First Ride

By any measure, the Ducati Monster has been one of the most successful motorcycles created not just by Ducati, but by any motorcycle manufacturer.
Originally conceived by Ducati’s legendary technical director Massimo Bordi and penned by the equally famous designer Miguel Galluzzi ahead of the 1992 Intermot Show in Cologne, the Monster was such a commercial success it quickly became the face of a brand more well known for going fast around a racetrack than the simple pleasures a bike like the Monster could impart.
Since that 1993 model year release, the Monster been through three different generations and gone on to sell over 350,000 units across the globe, with the fourth now in our hands in the new $11,895 MSRP base model, and the $12,095 Monster + that comes with a seat cover and a little windscreen.
We headed to San Francisco and Laguna Beach to check out the 2021 Ducati Monster for ourselves.
