I believe that the entry-level Monsters will be phased out by the 821 and the Scrambler firmly set as the cheapest option.
Wow. I didn't see that one coming. A model 'underneath' the Monster? I could certainly see it now... It will be *afterall* the only air-cooled option in the entire line-up. Air-cooled = cheaper to produce. Thanks for the eye opener duccarlos.
I'm torn between keeping my Triumph Speed3 1050 or moving it along to p/u a Scrambler in the spring. Guess it'll be a test ride for me come April/May...

Is it confirmed then that there is NO 2015 M696? Most 2015's do not appear to have been announced as of yet..., so...

I thought it had been confirmed that both the M696 and M796 were going away?

Confirmed as in an announcement from Ducati?

You crazy? Ducati doesn't really announce when stuff goes away. It just kinda happens. We won't really know until we see the list next year.

Where do you get Taiwan?
Ducati has had a plant in Thailand for two years. The "hard parts" are STILL made in Bologna.
Where you been, Sky?
Doh meant Thailand..... Lots going on lately.

So it's all idle internet speculation?

I think the 796 was replaced with the 821 and the M696 remains with 80HP

Gene, why would you think that based on a website that hasn't necessarily been updated for 2015 model year when a dealer (I assume Last Line is a dealer from his posts in this thread)?
That said, my little bro was researching this recently and was convinced the 696 & 796 were going away enough that he bought his first ever NEW motorcycle (a leftover 796) a month ago. For the record he has about 30 bikes in the fleet, many late model, but all others were used.
No matter, even if the 696 hung on another year, the writing is obviously on the wall and it'll be gone soon enough.

But (FWIW) I think you hit the nail on the head there DC.
