Overview

Introducing the 2019 Ducati Monster 797 Plus, a striking embodiment of the naked bike category that fuses iconic design with exhilarating performance. Part of Ducati’s storied Monster lineage, the 797 Plus is crafted for riders who crave a blend of heritage and modernity. With its unmistakable trellis frame and aggressive stance, this motorcycle is not just a mode of transportation; it’s a declaration of freedom on two wheels, designed for both urban commutes and spirited weekend rides. At the heart of the Monster 797 Plus lies a robust 803 cc V2 four-stroke engine that roars to life, delivering an exhilarating 73 horsepower at 8,250 RPM. The engine’s torque of 67 Nm at 5,750 RPM ensures a responsive ride, making city riding a breeze and open roads a thrill. Coupled with a precise 6-speed gearbox and an APTC wet multiplate clutch, the Monster offers seamless gear shifts and a tactile connection to the road. Riders will appreciate the fuel efficiency as well, with a consumption rate of 5.3 liters per 100 km, allowing for longer journeys without frequent stops. This motorcycle is loaded with features that enhance both comfort and performance. The tubular steel trellis frame not only contributes to the bike's lightweight design (weighing in at 175 kg) but also provides excellent handling and stability. The front suspension features a 43 mm Kayaba USD fork, while the rear is equipped with a Sachs monoshock that is fully adjustable for preload and rebound, ensuring a customizable riding experience. Advanced braking capabilities come standard with dual 320 mm semi-floating discs in the front, paired with Monobloc Brembo calipers and ABS, ensuring that stopping power is as formidable as the acceleration. The Monster 797 Plus is available in a vibrant Ducati Red or sophisticated White Silk, further enhancing its visual appeal. **

Pros

  • Exhilarating Performance: The powerful V2 engine provides a thrilling ride with excellent torque and smooth acceleration.
  • Lightweight and Agile: Weighing just 175 kg, the Monster 797 Plus is nimble and easy to maneuver, making it perfect for both city and twisty roads.
  • Stylish Design and Customization: Its iconic design and color options allow riders to express their personal style while enjoying a classic Ducati aesthetic.

Cons

  • Seat Height Adjustment: With a seat height of 805 mm, it may be a stretch for shorter riders, limiting accessibility for some.
  • Limited Wind Protection: As a naked bike, the Monster offers minimal wind protection at higher speeds, which might be uncomfortable for long rides.
  • Fuel Capacity: While efficient, the 16.5-liter fuel tank may require more frequent refueling on longer journeys compared to some competitors.
