The 821 Original Monster 900 retains everything of the original, combining the best performance with exceptional riding friendliness. The Monster 821 is the best everyday bike with the best quality equipment, reasonable proprietary cost, and many accessories. It also has the distinct Ducati game-naked feeling that every monster has.
The Monster 821 was initially improved to combine the aesthetic and practical elements that look like the Monster 1200, with a more modified tank and tail, a more smooth, vibrant appearance, a brand new silencer, and classic and modern headlamps. The medium-sized Monster has a colorful TFT display with selected gear and fuel indicators, as well as Ducati Quick Shift up / down technology, which is available as a device.
