Panning a Ducati Monster motorbike without rear sync flash travelling along the Kingsway West Dual Carriageway in Dundee, UK


The Ducati Monster (Il Mostro in Italian) is a motorcycle designed by Miguel Angel Galluzzi and produced by Ducati in Bologna, Italy since 1993. It is a naked bike, characterized by an exposed engine and frame. The deliberate use of the trellis frame in the Ducati Monster is an integral part of the motorcycle's design allowing for both aesthetic appeal and for structural efficiency. In 2005 The Ducati Monster sales accounted for over half of Ducati's worldwide sales. Ducati motorcycles use almost exclusively 90° V-twin engines, which they call L-twins, with desmodromic valves, and tubular steel trellis frame, features designed by Fabio Taglioni (1920–2001). The Monster line has had numerous variations over the years, from entry level 400 cc bikes up to top of the line 130 hp multi-valve, water-cooled super-bike engined versions, with as many as nine different Monster versions in a single model year.
