the sound is so much better than in the other reviews!! Thank you Auto Trader team! :)
it is a little funny that it doesnt have a gear indicator but the dukes gears are so big,heavy and obvious what gear your in its really not even missed...ive given my hypermotards gears names...first and second are wheelie one and wheelie two followed by power gear one and power gear two then it goes into ludicrous speed followed by what the hells the point? or 6th
I enjoy your motorbike review videos so much. Great to see them back
I'm in love with this piece of metal. The videos are sooo good. So Professional. Keep it up. Please review Ducatti Scrambler and Kawasaki ninja 250 and 300.
HOw is it that Auto Trader hasn't reviewed the Monster 797?
one of the best ducati monster 821 review i have seen. Thank you Jon for your valuable views on the 821.
You have a great voice/tonal quality one of the reasons i kept watching this.
I have couple of question though
1. is the clutch hard or easy to pull coz i checked out the 821 at a ducati outlet here in Mumbai, India and i felt it to be really hard.
2. How is the 821 is stop and go traffic [Mumbai Traffic is horrible 20~40 km/h in early morning rush hour ], does the engine heat up.
3. I heard the power kicks in after 5000 rpm , why does that do when we are in stop go traffic.
Also couple of other things which i did not realize was the foot-peg placement the pillion rider might have problems placing his feet and no fuel gauge woahh , how will i know when my tanks gonna get empty then.
very very professional editing , love to watch more bike reviews
Thanks Sunil
Own 1 of those monster.satisfied wth it.
GREAT stuff.
I thought the 1988 Honda Hawk 650 "invented" the naked model category as well as the Monster styling. Ducati and Triumph then popularized the look
It was Magni that introduces tye very first naked bike in 1977 with Magni-Honda MH and later in 1980 MV Agusta with 1100 GP model.
What a good compromise... Would b a 4th or 5th bike if only I could.
And I'm afraid compliments don't get much higher than that.
You guys should do a review on the new Ducati Scrambler!
NO FORK ADJUSTMENTS also...so if the forks are too soft/hard you have to take them to Race Tec to get them re-valved to your requirements. Even my Old zrx1200 had adj. forks.
+Martin Sage Well, pre-load still isn't going to be a replacement for getting the right rate springs for your weight. Pre-load is to set the bike/rider sag. It's not a replacement for forks that are outright too soft, so even if you have preload, compression, and rebound damping, you should probably be eye'ing the forks, regardless.
821 stripe has fully adjustable forks, Sage.
opmike343 I agree with everything you said. I spoke with Race Tec and they said they can do little for these forks. Why does Ducati go cheap on the forks?
The tank is 17.5 ltrs not 13.5. Nice video though
What do you think it is more practical... the bags you have in the video or a GIVI top case?
it has that tired, beefy cruiser sound but i bet its plenty fast
Could I start on this bike or should I go with a less powerful one
Where can I get those amazing lateral bags?
tq i bought mine after watching this.
Tried a Harley-Davidson out just to see it’s like riding a couch so slow looked good that’s it nothing else impressed you might as well buy a Volvo can’t ride sport bikes anymore lower spine I was going to give up this looks great got to give it s try
How comfortable is it?
Wow, a grown-up actually made a review of this bike!
I keep coming back to see what you think..... have you done the ZX14 range yet?
We'll pass your comment along to the bikes team.
jestermoon no
No gear indicator or fuel gauge and £2.5K more than an MT07 with an Akrapovic, which has both, I wont be changing anytime soon. Thanks.
Dave Ballard The Mt-07's exceptional value for money was one of the reasons why it was our bike of the year in 2014
Dave Ballard How can a gear indicator and an Akrapovic tin change the performance of a bike? Ducati is not a vacuum cleaner that needs a Termi or Akrap to make it sound like a proper bike.
+Sam Rad true! But at that price range, gear Indicator and fuel gauge should be standard.
+sql-lover right, but does the yamaha come with Brembo brakes and such powerful engine? does is it come with similar TC and similar weight? I'd more worried about my stopping power than a tiny LED showing me what I already know.
+Dave Ballard Why are you comparing the two? The Monster is in a different class. 115bhp vs 74bhp, electronic aids, brakes, Ducati probably sound better stock than a MT-07 w/Akra. Considering the differences between them, your comparison to a MT-07, it just proves how good value the Ducati is for 2.5k difference.
it's about 32.120 usd in indonesia :(
The monster Looks very feminine now. Glad I went with a street bob. That exhaust note was sad and reminded me of a sick cat. I guess it's the liquid cooled engine..
Mic M It's just that ridiculous colour scheme... The red one - and specially the dark one - look manly. And the exhaust note here doesn't sound anything like the real one (a problem of youtube videos trying to capture exhaust notes, in general).
How tall are u?
Duke Rider Hi there, Jon is around 6 feet tall.
112bhp :)
how tall is he?
Jon is 6 ft tall, 183cm
ok thank u Auto Trader
That colour scheme is atrocious and side bags on a Monster just look wrong... Besides that, great bike.
Is it hurt to put a fuel gauge on such an expensive bike
liquid cooled? forget it then.
xpert
Those saddle bags are hideous.
Why would you do a review on this bike with bags? What the hell is wrong with these guys? Its a sport bike. Ruins the look.
Because you have to have a place to store stuff when your doing your big trips to Starbucks.
Ducati managed to make classic monster uglier by every year now it looks grotesque.Shitty looking headlight,crappy looking frame,exhaust and overall not very Italian looking.
