The Monster S2R 1000 blends sport with character -- the power of the 1000cc air cooled engine combines with the Trellis frame to pack a punch and confidence into every corner. The S2R 1000 is the ideal choice for anyone who wants the ‘mean’ look of the SR series with more power and the simple beauty of an air-cooled engine.

The most powerful of the air-cooled Monster's is driven by the highly efficient and ultra-reliable 1000 Dual Spark engine, delivering 95bhp of high torque power. The 1000 DS engine was developed with the specific objectives of increased broad linear power and increased efficiency, and the result is ideal for the S2R 1000. The Dual Spark solution gives a more efficient combustion and boosts power, especially at low and medium rpm, and when combined with advanced fuel injection and computer engine control, the 1000 DS never fails to thrill.

The adjustable Showa 43mm inverted forks and a Sachs rear shock smooth out the bumps and add their share of poise to the impeccable road manners of the Ducati S2R 1000 . For exceptional stopping power and safety, high performance Brembo callipers grip twin 320mm discs up front and a single 245mm disc at the rear all helping to provide the finishing touches to this air cooled Monster.
