I am a sceptic from way back, sounds like B.S to me! [cheeky] Why would it be described as a monster 1098s. I am no Ducati Guru but I am not aware of them ever just having an "s" model! I will believe it when I get it from a source better than that. I am sure that the people in the know would hear of it and spill the beans well before the "tour guide" has information includingwhere it will be assembled.
I am sure that the ducati people sre planning a complete overhaul of the monster based on the 696 but please give me a break! r:e)

I remember a few issues ago in ACMN there was an article about the new look MultiStrada and also the Naked 1098. It was not called a Monster though and it seems the info they had put it directly in the 1098 line up rather than the Monster line up - They called it the 1098n and it looked way cool!

Saying that, so did the revised Multi - it had a new front end that was reminiscent of the 1098 as well.

I'll try to scan the article if I can find it.

Well it would have 30 more Hp than the current S4rs :o

But to be honest it would take alot for me to replace my current monster ???

Hp isnt every thing I think  ???
