presentation of the 1100 MONSTER evo 2011
evo, the code name Ducati now uses for the evolution of its models (nothing could be more logical). After the Hypermotard 1100 and the 848, it's the 1100 Monster's turn to sport this second name. A reminder that it's changed? A glance at the technical data sheet, or a simple glance at the machine, will suffice to realize that the roadster has taken on even more character. It's the new exhaust system in particular that makes the point. Two side-mounted silencers, one on top of the other, like those on the S2R and S4Rseries... No, no, in fact, like those on the new, hard-hitting 1200 Diavel. While they lighten the rear end visually, rim fans will find it a pity that they hide the rear wheel, previously perfectly unobstructed and open to envious glances.
A new seat and handlebars raised by 20 mm will lighten the riding position somewhat. Since the release of the 796, the Monster range seems more concerned with improving on-board ergonomics. Is the 1100 going soft? Not really, quite the opposite. The big air-cooled twin gains 5 horsepower for 2011, enabling it to claim just shy of 100 grunt. A higher compression ratio, revised valves and a new flywheel are just a few of the ways in which the block has been injected with vitamins.
On the technical side, there's no change to the chassis. Tubular trellis frame mounted on two aluminum plates, single-arm and 43 mm inverted fork, with Brembo brakes and 4-piston radial calipers. Electronic assistance is the star of the show. Presented as the Ducati Safety Pack (DSP), active safety features include super-light ABS and 4-stage traction control. For sporty riders, these kickstands can be deactivated from the handlebars. Its evolution translates into a weight gain of one kilo - no big deal when you weigh less than 170 on the scales. If you're interested in telemetric analysis of your riding, the 1100 Monster evo is already pre-wired for DDA (Ducati Data Analyser), as on the 1198.

However, it's no good in town, and freeways aren't its thing - it's not an SUV! Rating : 5/5 Respond to REMYDUCAT
Still as happy as ever on my Monster :)))) Rating : 5/5 Respond to HIKARI
A real jewel. No problem with braking (it's useful for me who lives in the Trièves and loves speed), yes, abs that you can disconnect. As for the sprocket (....), I left it as is and frankly, it's a pain; it's a bike that, like me, doesn't like the city, so... We often meet in the summer at the Mustang snack bar on route 75 in Clelles 38 because the owners are ducatiste. In short, a bike you don't want to sleep on. Rating : 5/5 Respond to Hikari
The flops:
no fuel gauge, but you get used to it. Rating : 5/5 Respond to Terminat31
a motorized mountain bike... Rating : 4/5 Respond to sevy
but it seems that even if you buy a new bike, there are modifications to be made to improve its performance (brake pads, hoses, brake oil, clutch oil which blackens very quickly, and changing the sprocket one tooth less to avoid it chattering at low speed!
as if all that couldn't be done from the factory?
but apart from that, very good bike Rating : 4/5 Respond to kouki
