2009 Ducati Monster 696

Ducati offers a range of accessories, owners, for the design.

696, instead of last year, 695 is the base model ($ 8775 EIA) and the review of Monster. The 696 cc engine with two new heads sports, the great power: 80 hp at 9000 rpm and 51 pounds-feet of torque at 7750 rpm, with six speeds. New to the Brembo brakes, is the overexuberance.
