MONSTER 696
Throughout its long story, the Monster legend has attracted and encouraged endless personalization.
The Monster 696 has been accessorized in-house by Ducati and features some additional sophisticated and functional details. The color-matched rear seat cover, which can be easily removed for a passenger, accentuates the clean and sporty lines of the 696 while a neat micro-bikini fairing further enhances the look of the front end.
