[Group] SBF DUCATI Monster

bro,

 

i didnt say in any post that the monster not good in cornering. i jus feel that with the wider tyres on the gsr (180), monoshock n the swingarm design aids in cornering. from wat i know (n done some research as i wanted a monster before) the tyres a little thinner (160 even for the latest 600cc) n the pipes are mounted in a way that i worry it'll scrap the ground (which there are high mount pipes, but i'm talking about stock bikes now). HOWEVER, compared to dual-shocked bikes, i find that monoshock is much more stable in cornering.

 

i didnt mean to cause any tension between us riders, after all we ARE all riders. n also i dun wan for no reason monster, gsr, super4 n xjrs riders to challenge each other at gap or devil's band jus becos of my post (which i think its childish). like i say in the previous post, although i ride a japanese bike, i still adore the design n engine of the monster. the reason i took the japanese bike is i want something that can be ridden everyday without worrying about fuel consumption.

 

anyway, i apologise if i've caused any friction between us naked bike riders. jus that recently i got into an accident (not by cornering though) n my mind is still a little groggy n i post things i didnt realise will cause alot of misunderstanding n such. i do hope u guys accept my apology n put this behind. after all, a gsr has 2-wheels, n so does the monster. i dun wish to start seeing gsr n monster riders start challengin each other n get fined (or worse, get hurt) in the process.

Cool! Shake hands

[Bittersweet]

how abt a compare between newM400 vs S4 bol'dor!?

 

 

anyone considerin invest in either one of e machine above?

[spot city]

any 1 here did know the different between s4r and s2r? basically i m refering to the power ? how much different it is? i guess its stil tat powerful since its of 1000cc. only diff on horsepower. thanks for any input

[jonathan543]

s2r is aircooled desmo duo (2valves)engine. s4r is liquid cooled desmo quatto(4valves) engine, well basically an superbike engine like the ducati 999.

servicng costs is expected to cost alot more for the quatto engine than the duo engine.

thanks for that. yeah i notice its air cool vs liquid cooled. 2valve vs 4 valve.

of coz air cooled is less maintainance. i oso understand s2r engine is similar to 916 engine if i didnt mistaken.

 

the question is, is there much different in raw power in terms of aceleration comparing s2r to s4r/? :bouncefire:

hi guys,

 

i heard Ducati will be closed down under minerva n reopen under different company.

 

i hope the new owner will give us a better support.

[Wood]

I noticed most of the low pipes are oval. Any pipes that are big and round (sounds nice of course) that is suitable for M400?

 

Also, a few of teh pics I saw online have the matt white pipes. Do they paint them or spray them? Anyone of you does that?

[Amsterdam_Virus]

would like to know how much for a class2a ducati monster?

n also wats the maintenance like?

cuz i tinking of getting a ducati for my class 2a which im gonna take sooner or later..

[Guest nE0]

The questions you guys posted here are very vague.

 

For example, a Monster M400 can range anything from a nearly 10 year old early FP to less than a year old fuel injected ones.

 

Prices can range from as low as $1500 for a horrible, rattling, un-road worthy rust heap to a $12000 good as new machine.

If you never thought of calling them up to ask how much the bike cost i dont think you're really that interested (:

Perhaps U can post your query at the monster thread. As U can see from bro neo's reply, class 2a and 2 monsters got many. Maybe U can be more specific?
