Our take on this /// Verdict
The Ducati Monster S2R is a quintessential naked sports bike that embodies the essence of Italian motorcycle design and performance. With its 803cc, 90-degree V-Twin engine producing around 87 horsepower and 58 lb-ft of torque, this bike offers a potent blend of power and agility. The trellis frame, single-sided swingarm, and high-quality suspension components make it a joy to handle, especially in twisty roads where its responsive steering and confident turn-in shine. The absence of extensive electronics adds to its raw, classic riding experience, making it a favorite among those who crave a more authentic motorcycle feel. While it may not be the most comfortable for long tours or two-up riding, as a solo bike, it is superb, offering a thrilling ride that is hard to match.

In India, the Ducati Monster S2R, particularly the 2015 model, would have been priced competitively within the premium motorcycle segment. The ex-showroom price for the 2015 Ducati Monster S2R in India was around 10.5 lakhs. However, the on-road price, including taxes, registration, and other costs, would have been closer to 12-13 lakhs.

Mileage
Wednesday, 20 November 2024 02:05 AM
When it comes to mileage, the Ducati Monster S2R is not particularly known for its fuel efficiency. With a fuel tank capacity of around 15 liters, you can expect an average mileage of about 15-20 kml, depending on your riding style and conditions. This translates to a range of approximately 225-300 kilometers on a full tank. While this may not be ideal for long-distance touring, it is reasonable for a high-performance naked bike. Running costs, including fuel, maintenance, and occasional repairs, should be factored into your decision, but for those who prioritize performance and handling, the S2R remains a compelling choice.
