Is this a trick question? It looks like one.
Jeezum Crow, his body positioning looks wacky.

Can't see much wrong with the body position.  If he stuck his knee out he'd look about right, but hey its not all about sticking it out

From the looks of that sprocket carrier, not a monster.

Well, I definitely could be wrong but it looks like he's weighting the inside peg and has contorted his body unnaturally. The guy in front of him looks a little more relaxed.

Hmmm... looks like a SSS and has upright bars but the sub-frame looks different. I'm not familiar with the new Monsters so I thought it might be one.

My thoughts as well.  That turn signal sticks out an awful long way.  The rear tire looks a bit skinny too.

As far as the body position goes, isn't that what you would call "crossed up"?  He got his ass off the saddle, but his top half should be farther towards the inside of the turn than the bike.

Wrong swingarm, exhaust, frame, taillight. No Monster.

I think R.B. is right, maybe a Speed Triple. (see top pic)

Not a monster and both riders were crossed up

The rear beer tray area looks a bit too wide to be a monster. And so do the mirrors.. I have not seen one ducati owner try to get mirrors bigger in size than OEM  ;)

On the bright side, you have the plates perfectly captured. I'm sure if you really want to know, there is a way out there to find out what model bike is tied to it. Or try strike a conversation with a  [leo] at the local donut shop  [drink]

Brutele? When you blow up the pic, the seat looks like a brutele.

The mirrors look like a triple, but the exhaust is missing.  The tail light looks too narrow for a Brutale.

I vote Speed Triple with aftermarket exhaust.  Did a Google Image search... a few showed up that look plausibly similar.  Would definitely explain the swingarm and the goofy wide-and-low front turn signals.

The tell is the red rear subframe.

It's a 2012 speed triple r with a competition werkes fender eliminator...
That exhaust almost looks like the street triple r stock pipe, but the tail light and sub frame are wrong for the streetie.
