The Ducati Monster is the best naked bike out there. If you don't agree - tough - it just is!
The new Diesel Edition isn’t some attempt to make it run on stinky gas, but is designed by the Diesel clothing company. The heart of it is the Monster 1100 Evo, with a two-valve, 100 hp engine, wet clutch and ABS.
The styling, however, is all Diesel. Featuring a black trellis frame, wheel and engine covers will sport a slick matte green paint job and the exhaust has some slick heat shields surrounding them. Contrasting bright yellow brake calipers really stand out against the rest of the moto’s muted colors. A stylish seat, rear cowl and instrument cluster finish out the designer styling. Looks amazing to us!
