Hi Charlie, I love that exact model. I read and heard that they are too nimble on the highway, like....unstable front... is that true? for crusing at 80mph is it too much for wind or the little fairing helps a bit? thanks in advance:)

I have an 07 S4R Testastretta currently, this is my 5th Ducati. The Monsters are not too bad on the maintenance, I've had few troubles with mine. It's the superbikes you might want to pass on, as they are track-oriented and none too street friendly. I had a 998 Final Edition and didn't like it, it actually hurt to ride it. But it was fast. The dry clutch is a racing clutch. It's light, can be swapped out in 10 minutes trackside, and doesn't pollute the engine oil with friction material from the friction plates. These are the reasons for the dry clutch. Now they are no longer made, all Ducs are wet clutch. I'm not fond of the rattle either but for me the rest of the bike more than makes up for it. Some people love the rattle. You're too hard on the Ducatis, they're tough bikes mechanically and sound amazing as you mentioned. To me the best looking bikes on the road. The way they put the power down feels really good. Opening the throttle to full honk never gets old. They have quirks that will annoy some people, but all bikes will have them to some degree.

The original Ducati Monster designer was Miguel Galluzzi. He named the bike after a collection of toys his son always asked him to bring home. There ya go. No charge.

@miguelmatos9508

Indeed

Best sounding clutch ever

When people tell me my Ducati is going to blow up I just say it’s a racing clutch and is supposed to sound like that. Whatever the bike, the key is how it feels to ride - most Ducatis feel amazing, like if only I was on track I would be ripping like crazy. Not great for shopping but sublime for carving. Feedback in bucket loads, stable as and mostly forgiving. Great review Sean.

I LOVE the sound of a dry clutch!

Ducatis are works of art.

Guy on a Ducati: Did you see that new Harley? 2nd Ducati guy: Not since 2nd gear.

My 1991 900ss, air cooled 900 cc engine. At 4000 miles I dropped Hi compression pistons in it and Kehein 39mm Carbs. In 59,000 miles I did oil changes, spark plug changes and adjusted exhaust valves 3 times and changed belts once. The only mechanical issue I had was a burnt out reg / rectifier. That bike was the most reliable and least expensive bike to maintain I've ever owned.

S2r is my favorite bike! I have a 2007 and it is a work of art. Mine is the 800. Still plenty of power and the maintenance isn’t bad. I got her a few years ago and she only has 6K on her. Did a timing belt change, plugs, checked valves and chain adjustment. All pretty easy. Thank you for your video! I agree with everything you said with the exception of the sound of the dry clutch. Mine has a wet clutch, but I love the clattering of a dry clutch!!

The open dry clutch is just part of the mechanical mayhem that is uniquely Ducati. The sound during acceleration is equalled by the deep bass during deceleration.

Love how you blur out the speed when you're crackin it. haha

I have 06 S2R1000 with the same color scheme as the one on video. The bike on video has an open airbox thats why it has that throaty induction noise.

I've always wanted to buy every single motorcycle I've ever owned dating all the way back to the 70's. Then one day, I road a Ducati Monster. It instantly fulfilled all my nostalgia. I just love the way it rumbles and feels. Why buy a Ducati? They're like a Ferrari, only mere mortals can own them.

Love the sound of a dry clutch... 😍 LOVE...

I ride an s2r 800, and I have for 14 years. I love it, I will never part ways with it.

I just got a Monster 797+ as a first bike... and I live in a neighborhood of 50-55mph roads, perfect place for a total novice to learn! I named her Katarina.

I like my S2R 1000 for the same reasons as you do, it is just, one of a kind. The last of the old school Monsters, aircooled ones.

Great vid and awesome bike! Loved how you describe the bike and it's background. Ducatista for life

Cool vid. It reminds me of why I liked Ducati. I had forgotten since I hadn't seen one in a while. Nothing sounds like a Ducati.

Yeah, I'm no fan of the dry clutches either. But you're right, super nimble bikes, even the 1200R that I ride.

Ducati Up North has a write-up on how to silence the clutch. I prefer the Tamburinin-tambourine but I understand how other may have different preferences.

The sound is a reason that I still ride my ST3s. No other sport touring bike sounds so good.

You're right when you say when you get off the bike life seem smoother. Reminds me when I had my Buell, same feeling. I also did borrow a Ducati 900, great bike!

I absolutely loved the dry clutch sound on my aircooled Multistrada. I missed it once I sold it and bought a newer liquid cooled version with hydraulic clutch.

I have a Ducati monster S4R as you can see my profile picture. I recommend buying the Ducati "R" models if you want to have the actual "race" engine that is used in Ducati's race/track bikes. It may cost more to maintain than standard Ducati engines.

Mine had a cut airbox, QD, Cogent Dynamics suspension, and Power Commander. If you think the growl with all that stock stuff in place was deep... Oh man it was heaven. That bike could pull a tank through a slalom course. I miss that machine. I could build another one.

Love the dry clutch!

Nice bike sean....I just bought my first bike and it's a 2001 monster dark 750 3800 og miles!!..im super stoked and thanks for your super dope videos man

I have a old 73 Harley Sportster XLCH 1000... has nice sounding drag pipes.. but I really love the high rev Indy Car sound of a Honda CBR 600RR during high speed gear changing or wheelies.... I kinda like the very different throaty sound of the Ducati too ..... I would love to some day own a 600RR or trade for one...... maybe even a Ducati 1098.... tough decisions ; . )

is that a boneville near the wall on the back? (left side of screen) it looks like an old Matchless or AJS, what a nice looking bike. That monster is algo a great looking bike ..... L twin not V twin ;)

Where can i listen to that intro music ? Love this channel

We 'RIDE' Motorcycles but 'DRIVE' cars .

I love the Ducati dry clutch sound

As a small boy I had a poster on my room of a Ducati Monster. When a had my license I knew which bike I wanted. A S2R. And I love it! Every mile! It brings a smile to my face, makes me feel like I'm king of the road and I love it when people stare at my motorcycle at traffic lights. All the hate just makes me laugh lol

Had an Monster 1100 Evo. Still miss it but my Multistrada just more comfortable at my age. I've had 4 Ducatis and all needed just maintenance. No reliability issues ever

That duke sound, it can get you some speeding tickets

You should try to get your hands on an arch motorcycle I would love to see a review of one of those

The monster is a naked Strada 888 from the beginning. Ducati owned by Lamborghini through Audi who's owned by Volkswagen and made Mr Buell build racing bikes of Harley Davidson's.

@2:40 You missed the book of Enki, that rocks. ;) @3:15 It is the perfect bike to start on if you had proper training. :) @6:52 The level of refinement is a reason, too. They go the extra mile if they have to. @9:20 It has 96 horses and even a Honda CRF250L can handle Murican highway speeds.

it's true, Miguel Angel Galluzzi and massimo bordi had a bunch of 888 stuff lying around, but wanted to make a bike that competed in the naked craze, as the yamaha tenere, and transalps, and beemers were dominating that segment of the market.. he wanted a cheaper no frills, high tourque , streetable do everything bike, that had good dna and out performed the competition.. they were intended from the beginning to be modified by their owners and bring in revenue for their suppliers and italian components firms.. and bordi was correct, a whole industry grew up around the bike, try to find a bone stock monster out there.. from grips, to tail lights to bobbins, to seats, to exhaust, clutch covers, singnals, carbon bits, pegs, you name it , it's the kuryakin of europe.. rizoma termi, etc etc.. think they are on to 250,000 monsters sold.. so Bordi was on to something.. knew how to style the bike.. Prior to this ducati had only the Indiana, a sort of magna/maxim x/elimnator clone , that wasn't to great a styling adventure.. they hit the mark with the monster..

I love there Ducati desings but a fan of the v twin i prefere the 4 cyl Japanese

i've got almost the exact same bike. put a 2, to 1 titanium exhaust, and a better mirror. that bike may have a cut out air box too! makes it bark loud.

Oh man, that’s music to my ears. Love the sounds of a ducati

you forgot to say it's not what you riding but where you going :) coz i like it so much

Guess you have to have been around the AMA Superbike paddock a bit more to understand that the sound of a dry clutch is the sound of "race day"....plus you don't foul your oil with clutch contaminants. Plus, like Mama use to say..."Iffa you can hear your clutch, your pipes arra too quiet...". ;)

when people try to rubbish your bike at stop lights, I like to flick it into neutral and let the clutch out and let the dry clutch do the talking.

1:38 that Triumph on the back . Nice duc too.

Dry Clutches are cool for about 5 mins. My Buddy had a GSXR750 limited fun Bike. My Y2k Ducati has a dry clutch but ts covered thankfully

Yikes, those mirrors are so huge! 1100 was too big so I went for a 796, it still works great🍃 My only nitpick is, it gets a little hot around my inner thighs🍒 If you can find a ducati mechanic like I did, you can SAVE $100's because going to any kind of dealers you basically loose

Bro we know you love them 😉😉😉

The only Ducati I liked was the old inline 6 bikes . Those bikes screemed when you hit 10,000 and above . That was when Ducati really in their hay days in GP racing .

Ducati’s have soul like a Harley. You will find both in my garage. I have room for one more bike hence the reason I keep up with your inventory....perhaps one day we will meet up, I live up in northeast Pa just a couple hours from your shop. Love your 0-60’s fun to watch.

At my age a brand new bike just doesent make good sense and I enjoy wrenching on my own stuff. I’ve been practicing on a 2000 XL1200C that I bought back in 2012. I don’t touch my 2017 Ducati Scrambler Desert Sled, that bike is under warranty. Fun dirt road runner. Sportster is perfect for around here but not a road trip bike. I’ll be in touch. Keep tempting me , I will eventually break...🤣 in closing, I must mention how refreshing to see Gods light shining through your videos with the words of wisdom....May God bless your family and business, it’s getting darker and darker out there in America, now is the time to shine!
