Typically, in the case of motorcycles, heavier bikes tend to be more powerful. This is the conventional view. However, now the times and technologies both have changed. For instance, the 2021 Ducati Monster simply throws all conventions away.

 

Italian automotive maker, Ducati, is quite popular for its automobile tech. The company just recently gave insights into its newest 2021 Ducati Monster model. And in comparison, with the 821 models, this new bike is not just lighter but also significantly more powerful.

 

The Monster bikes have been around since 1993. All previous models have been quite heavy. But in the 2021 Ducati Monster, the rear subframe and the metal trellis both have been replaced with lighter materials.

The mainframe is made of cast Aluminium whereas the subframe features a glass-reinforced polymer. This polymer gives the bike’s frame the strength that it requires without adding in too much weight.

 

Due to all such tweaks, the new 2021 Ducati Monster weighs at least 4.5kg lesser than the 821 model and all its predecessors. The total dry weight of the 2021 Ducati Monster is just 166kg.

Along with that, the new 937 CC V2 engine further cuts the weight down. This engine is larger than the previous ones, but it is still lighter. This two-cylinder motor delivers a 95Nm torque at 6500 rpm, along with 111 horsepower at 9250 RPMs.

While this increase in power may feel like it is not a lot, riders can feel the difference.

 

But as far as the appearance goes, this new motorcycle may not be very different from its previous iterations. Generally, the round headlights and the shape are untouched. Though, it now has a narrower seat that makes it highly suitable for riders with a shorter stature.

For shorter riders, lower seats are also available. Riders can also use suspension kits to drop the height of the bike.
