Ducati Monster

Ducati have two new monsters for 2008. The incredibly expensive, insanely desirable, ridiculously fast (can you tell I want one?) Monster S4R S Tricolore. And the lightly less expensive, almost as desirable, not quite-as-fast completely redesigned, not quite-ready-to-release yet Monster 696. Ducati Monster Either way, nothing says I love you like a Ducati for Christmas. The Tricolore is a limited edition of the Testastretta S4R S Monster, kicks out 130 hp, and almost guaranteed never to wear your front tire out – seeing as you will be spending most of the time with the front wheel off the ground, I think this is how Ducati is promising less maintenance costs this year. Ducati have come a long way since the days of self-destroying electrical wiring looms and guaranteed oil stains on the driveway. This year's Monsters are awesome.
