In the case of the S2R 1000, a brand new colour scheme has been introduced, with grey paintwork and black stripe and black wheels, joining the classic red or black versions, both of which feature a white racing stripe. In addition to the specific colour scheme, the new Monster version features another distinctive element in its carbon fibre side panels. That's almost all.
Chassis
For this Monster, Ducati developed an advanced version of the chassis, designed to enhance the sports performance.
The 1000 features a more powerful braking system: a pair of 320mm discs on the front, with four-piston calipers and a PSC master cylinder with separate reservoir, and a 245mm disc with two-piston caliper on the rear. The Showa upside-down forks with full adjustment of preload and damping is also tailored for this specific version of the Monster, while the rear monoshock is made by Sachs and is of the same type installed on the 800cc model. Fully adjustable handlebar levers enable a lever-reach to suit all riders.
Engine
The L-Twin engine of the S2R 1000 is the same powerplant used on the SportClassic family. The 95hp dual spark engine has been given a series of important updates that make it even more flexible and generous in all riding conditions. For this engine the twin exhausts features a specific layout designed to emphasise the already superb torque output readily available from surprisingly low revs. Also, the manual choke of the earlier versions has been replaced by an automatic valve designed to make cold starts even faster, even in the coldest of climates. The air-cooled Desmo engine has been integrated with a series of solutions to keep exhaust emissions to incredibly low levels. S2R 1000 has been the first Monster machine to obtain Euro 3 homologation.
