Electronics

Cutting-edge technology

Riding pleasure and a feeling of control

Standard equipment includes Cornering ABS, Traction Control and Wheelie Control, all of which can be adjusted according to different levels of intervention. The motorcycle’s sports attitude is further accentuated with Launch Control, which ensures lightning starts.

This electronic equipment guarantees equally high levels of performance and active safety.

Like all latest generation Ducati bikes, the Monster exploits Ride-by-Wire technology in its dynamic control systems, with Riding Modes that modify the character of the motorcycle, adapting it to the road conditions and/or the rider’s level of ability.

Ducati Traction Control

The Traction Control system acts as a smart “filter” between the accelerator and rear tire. It lets the rider select one of eight different intervention levels. Each of the three Riding Modes has default DTC levels but these can be personalised to suit individual riding styles and road conditions, just like other electronic riding aids.

Launch Control

The Monster is equipped with a Launch Control system that allows for extremely effective starts. Once activated, the system autonomously manages the engine (regardless of how much the throttle is open) so that the rider need only manage the clutch when moving off. A drag race-proof mode that ensures the best possible acceleration.

Ducati Wheelie Control

Wheelie Control allows the motorcycle to accelerate to the max while eliminating, or limiting, any front wheel lift. This heightens riding safety but also ensures the best possible acceleration performance. Furthermore, Wheelie Control can be adjusted independently from other control systems.

Ducati Quick Shift (DQS) up/down

Available as standard on the new Monster the Ducati Quick Shift (DQS) up/down, a race-derived electronic system, lets riders shift gear without using the clutch. This system not only boosts the enjoyment of sports riding but also lends a welcome hand in city traffic or on winding roads requiring frequent gear changes.

Color TFT instrumentation

The Monster instrument panel features a 4.3” color TFT display. Its graphics are inspired by those of the Panigale V4 and offer useful on-board information. In the centre of the screen, the rev counter and currently selected gear are on prominent display, along with other data such as the air temperature and fuel level.
