Engine

• THE LIGHTEST TWIN CYLINDER EVER PRODUCED BY DUCATI.: 890 cc of pure twin-cylinder excitement: at just 119.9 lbs, the V2 engine ensures that the Monster weighs 8.8 lbs less than the previous generation. Thanks to the Intake Variable Timing system, the engine response is both exhilarating at high rpm and very enjoyable at low rpm.
• JUST 119.9 LBS. THE LIGHTEST DUCATI V2 ENGINE OF ALL TIME: The V2 engine marks another step forward in Ducati engine innovation. A project developed around sophisticated engineering solutions, such as aluminum cylinder sleeves and the positioning of the pump in the crankcase. An innovative engine that introduces the Intake Variable Timing system to improve the quality of power delivery, offering the rider a linear response at low rpm, robust mid-range torque, and performance at the top end.
• 110.7 HORSEPOWER AND 67 LB-FT OF TORQUE ON A BROAD AND EXPLOITABLE DELIVERY CURVE: The V2 engine unleashes 110.7 hp and 67 lb-ft of torque, distributed along a very broad and exploitable delivery curve: 70% of torque is already available at just 3,000 rpm, while more than 80% is maintained between 4,000 and 10,000 rpm, for a prompt response in any situation. Thanks to 4 Power Modes – High, Medium, City, and Low – associated with 4 Riding Modes, the rider can customize engine behavior based on riding style and context. The throttle grip also features two mappings associated with the Power Modes, providing a smoother and more dynamic response.
• INTAKE VARIABLE TIMING: INTELLIGENT DELIVERY TO SUIT EVERY RIDING STYLE: The Intake Variable Timing system continuously adjusts intake valve opening advance for the best possible delivery at all times. This allows for high power at high rpm, as much as 110.7 hp, and smooth delivery at low-mid range with regular combustion. Essentially, there is no need to choose between torque at low revs and power at the top end, as variable timing allows for both. This characteristic makes the V2 an engine that adapts to the most varied conditions of use: from low-speed riding in traffic, even in high gear, to exciting sports riding in the hills.
• COMPACT AND CLEAN: THE V2 THAT SHOWCASES THE NAKED DESIGN: The V-twin engine is not just a symbol of sports attitude, but a technical choice that minimizes bulk and simplifies the bike’s structure. As a load-bearing element, as per Monster tradition, it becomes an integral part of the frame, doing away with the need for superfluous elements and lightening the overall structure. The result is an engine that is narrower, smaller and visually more compact. With architecture designed to conceal many technical elements that were previously on view, the V2 is particularly suited to a naked. Every element designed to ensure a bike that is lighter, clean in design, and ready to give its all in every situation.

Key Characteristics
