2016 Ducati Monster 1200R

We just received this gorgeous 2016 Ducati Monster 1200R in “Thrilling Black” over the weekend.  It was purchased new at the former Bellevue dealer in December of 2016, it also received a few initial services there as well.  It has the obligatory Termignoni carbon exhaust and some nice Ducati Performance clutch and brake fluid reservoirs along with a cleaned up rear fender/plate holder.  We have some service history on the bike, last service was at 9335 miles, along with a new front tire at that time.   This Monster is super clean, one owner, local machine.  We have all the keys, owners manual and WA title.  .It seems Monster tend not to sit around long here at SUB, don’t hesitate to grab this rare black 1200R.

Few motorcycles have been as successful, iconic and diverse as the Ducati Monster. Over its 23-year history, Il Mostro has come in a range of sizes, from the diminutive 398cc M400 available only in certain license-restricted markets to the 145-horsepower, 1,198cc Monster 1200 S that debuted for 2014. The 1200 S was the most powerful Monster ever to emerge from the Bologna factory, but with big-bore naked bikes from Aprilia, BMW and KTM making anywhere from 160 to 175 horsepower, Ducati had to step up its game.  The “R” designation on certain Ducatis has always meant something special. More power. Exclusive components. Lighter weight. Compared to the 1200 S, the new-for-2016 Monster 1200 R makes 10-percent more horsepower (now 160) and 5-percent more torque (97 lb-ft). It features a taller chassis to allow deeper lean angles (up to 50 degrees), an adjustable Öhlins steering damper, a flyscreen, machined-from-billet footpegs and aluminum radiator shrouds with a sandblasted “R” graphic. Claimed weight is down by nearly five pounds thanks to a sleeker tail section, a carbon fiber front fender and three-spoke forged aluminum Marchesini wheels.  The 1200 R’s big twin is eager to rev and the throttle-by-wire provides crisp, precise response, allowing me to feed in just the right amount of power and easily adjust speed when leaned over. With plentiful but manageable grunt everywhere, Ascari’s hairpins and curb-jumping chicanes became opportunities rather than obstacles and its banked corners, fast sweepers and straightaways were exhilarating.
