"Powerful and track focused, the Ducati Monster 1200 S is a true supernaked. The R model has 15bhp more than the S model and is 2kg lighter. It has improved handling due to uprated Öhlins suspension and improved ground clearance with a revised foot-peg position. For a large naked bike it's hugely impressive on track." - Motor Cycle News.
While its large-capacity sports models were grabbing the headlines by dominating the World Superbike Championship, it was the relatively humble Monster that was Ducati's real success story, selling worldwide by the container-load and thus ensuring the Italian company's survival. Designed by Miguel Angel Galluzzi and introduced in 1993, the Monster single-handedly kick-started the continuing revival of 'naked' motorcycles. The Monster in its many forms remains a cornerstone of the Ducati range to this day.
One of the later, water-cooled, eight-valve versions, this Monster 1200 R was acquired by the current vendor's late brother in 2019. First registered in the UK, the Ducati was exported to Guernsey in 2019 and comes with a Guernsey Registration Certificate for '4969'. Well serviced and pampered, the machine has been dry stored and ridden regularly by the late owner. Currently displaying a total of only 4,344 miles on the odometer at the time of cataloguing/photography. The machine was last running in September 2023, and there is a walk-around video of the machine running which can be found on the Bonhams website.
As one would expect of a pampered example, this Ducati Monster comes complete with its original Ducati black leather wallet containing the owner's manual, roadside assistance book and stamped service booklet. Other paperwork includes the 2019 'used car' sales agreement; sundry invoices/bills; and some Ducati Monster brochures. SC Project exhaust silencers are currently fitted and the machine comes with the original silencer (used), frame plugs and a bike cover.
It should be noted that Vehicle Registration Number 'MA16 ZGC' features a 2019 'Export' marker to the HPI/DVLA database. Accordingly, prospective purchasers should satisfy themselves with regard to the validity of the motorcycle's registration status prior to bidding and will need to apply to the DVLA to retrieve the Vehicle Registration Number. Two keys present.
