Title: Re: 2009/2010 Monster Post by: Bizzarrini on November 26, 2009, 02:31:17 AM Sorry, couldn't help myself! I heard the 2010 model is coming with optional ABS!

And thanks for the web page link. Title: Re: 2009/2010 Monster Post by: Bizzarrini on November 26, 2009, 03:10:10 AM "Also, the 2010 Ducati Monster 696 comes with new engine casings that shed 2.6lbs off the bike’s weight, while the 2010 Ducati Monster 1100 comes with new the new “Silvergrey” cylinder coating. (WTF?)
Ducati has also revised the control mechanisms, and now the Monster series features 4-point brake and clutch levers to better suit all hand sizes." Title: Re: 2009/2010 Monster Post by: Jungle on November 26, 2009, 03:14:23 AM The “Silvergrey” cylinder coating. (WTF?) yeah wtf, as if thats going to make a difference to the braking.
Title: Re: 2009/2010 Monster Post by: Dave R on November 26, 2009, 09:46:06 AM no help with braking :) but may help heat dispersion on the engine "cylinders"
The “Silvergrey” cylinder coating. (WTF?) yeah wtf, as if thats going to make a difference to the braking. Title: Re: 2009/2010 Monster Post by: sugarcrook on November 26, 2009, 12:06:04 PM The ABS is a great addition. I never thought I'd use it, but now I'd have a hard time owning a bike without ABS.
Title: Re: 2009/2010 Monster Post by: Jungle on November 27, 2009, 01:18:24 PM Does the rear huger come with a new monster or is it an option?
Title: Re: 2009/2010 Monster Post by: z0mb1e_DUC on November 27, 2009, 02:10:59 PM yea, but Ducati reduced the tank size from 3.8gal to 3.5gal to fit that ABS option. Not that that's alot, but when your effective range is 150 miles (highway), that makes a big difference.
Title: Re: 2009/2010 Monster Post by: DucatiTorrey on November 30, 2009, 08:44:38 AM the 2010 will also have less miles than mine... sorry i got nothin (i do like that the 2010 848 will be available as a dark [evil])
Title: Re: 2009/2010 Monster Post by: Popeye the Sailor on November 30, 2009, 12:19:44 PM yea, but Ducati reduced the tank size from 3.8gal to 3.5gal to fit that ABS option. Not that that's alot, but when your effective range is 150 miles (highway), that makes a big difference. Yes, but the tank will expand, so there's that. Title: Re: 2009/2010 Monster Post by: ungeheuer on December 01, 2009, 03:34:51 PM Yes, but the tank will expand, so there's that. [clap] [laugh]Title: Re: 2009/2010 Monster Post by: DarkMonster620 on December 01, 2009, 04:03:27 PM the difference... a year?
ABS? Silvergrey coating? More colors? Adjustable brake/clutch levers at last[on entry level bikes]..., extended exhaust protection, cheaper? smaller tank, again!!! The only thing I want on my bike are the 4 pot calipers... no matter if axial or radial and 320mm rotors!!! Just saying Title: Re: 2009/2010 Monster Post by: junior varsity on December 01, 2009, 04:45:00 PM no ds.
